Ḥassān's poetry rebuking Quraysh
[ شِعْرُ حَسَّانَ فِي تَأْنِيبِ قُرَيْشٍ ] فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ بَعْدَ أُحُدٍ فِي غَزْوَةِ بَدْرٍ الْآخِرَةِ يُؤَنِّبُ قُرَيْشًا لِأَخْذِهِمْ تِلْكَ الطَّرِيقِ: دَعُو فَلَجَاتِ الشَّامِ قَدْ حَالَ دُونَهَا جَلَّادٌ كَأَفْوَاهِ الْمَخَاضِ الْأَوَارِكِ بِأَيْدِي رِجَالٍ هَاجَرُوا نَحْوَ رَبِّهِمْ وَأَنْصَارِهِ حَقَّا وَأَيْدِي الْمَلَائِكِ إذَا سَلَكَتْ لِلْغَوْرِ مِنْ بَطْنِ عَالِجٍ فَقُولَا لَهَا لَيْسَ الطَّرِيقُ هُنَالِكَ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَهَذِهِ الْأَبْيَاتُ فِي أَبْيَاتٍ لِحَسَّانَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، نَقَضَهَا عَلَيْهِ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ، وَسَنَذْكُرُهَا وَنَقِيضَتُهَا إنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ( فِي ) مَوْضِعِهَا
Translation
✧ [Ḥassān's poetry in rebuking Quraysh] Ḥassān b. Thābit said after Uḥud concerning the expedition of the latter Badr, rebuking Quraysh for taking that road: Leave the cultivated tracts of Syria, for before them has come a fierce fighter like the mouths of she-camels heavy with young, in the hands of men who emigrated toward their Lord and His true helpers, and the hands of the angels. If you travel toward the lowland from the interior of ʿĀlij, then say to it: the road is not there. Ibn Hishām said: These verses are among the verses of Ḥassān b. Thābit, against which Abū Sufyān b. al-Ḥārith b. ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib composed a rebuttal. We shall mention them and his rebuttal, God willing, in their proper place.
