وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النُّكْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَرْبُ بْنُ سُرَيْجٍ: حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَلْعَدَوَيْهِ، حَدَّثَنِي جَدِّي، قَالَ: انْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، فَنَزَلْتُ عِنْدَ الْوَادِي، فَإِذَا رَجُلَانِ بَيْنَهُمَا عَنْزٌ وَاحِدَةٌ، وَإِذَا الْمُشْتَرِي يَقُولُ لِلْبَائِعِ: أَحْسِنْ مُبَايَعَتِي، فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ إِذْ دَعَا الْمُشْتَرِي فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قُلْ لَهُ يُحْسِنْ مُبَايَعَتِي، فَمَدَّ يَدَهُ وَقَالَ: أَمْوَالَكُمْ تَمْلِكُونَ، إِنِّي أَرْجُو اللهَ تَعَالَى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَا يَطْلُبُنِي أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ مَنْ ظَلَمْتُهُ فِي مَالٍ وَلَا دَمٍ وَلَا عِرْضٍ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهِ،

رَحِمَ اللهُ امْرَأً سَهْلَ الْبَيْعِ سَهْلَ الشِّرَاءِ سَهْلَ الْأَخْذِ سَهْلَ الْعَطَاءِ سَهْلَ الْقَضَاءِ سَهْلَ التَّقَاضِي، ثُمَّ مَضَى، فَقُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي: هَذَا الْهَاشِمِيُّ الَّذِي أَضَلَّ النَّاسَ ؟ لَهُوَ هُوَ ! فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ حَسَنُ الْجِسْمِ، عَظِيمُ الْجَبْهَةِ، دَقِيقُ الْأَنْفِ، دَقِيقُ الْحَاجِبَيْنِ، فَإِذَا ثُغْرَةُ نَحْرِهِ إِلَى سُرَّتِهِ مِثْلُ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ شَعَرًا أَسْوَدَ، وَإِذَا هُوَ بَيْنَ طِمْرَيْنِ، قَالَ: فَدَنَا مِنَّا، فَقَالَ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ، فَرَدَدْنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ فَقُلْتُ: وَاللهِ لَأَقُصَّنَّ هَذَا، فَإِنَّهُ حَسَنُ الْقَوْلِ، فَتَبِعْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ بِجَمِيعِهِ، فَقَالَ: مَا تَشَاءُ ؟ فَقُلْتُ: أَنْتَ الَّذِي أَضْلَلْتَ النَّاسَ وَأَهْلَكْتَهُمْ وَصَدَدْتَهُمْ عَمَّا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُهُمْ ؟ قَالَ: ذَاكَ اللهُ، قُلْتُ: مَا تَدْعُو إِلَيْهِ ؟ قَالَ: أَدْعُو عِبَادَ اللهِ إِلَى اللهِ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَا تَقُولُ ؟ قَالَ: أَتَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ، وَتُؤْمِنُ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيَّ، وَتَكْفُرُ بِاللَّاتِ وَالْعُزَّى، وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ، وَتُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: وَمَا الزَّكَاةُ ؟ قَالَ: يَرُدُّ غَنِيُّنَا عَلَى فَقِيرِنَا قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نِعْمَ الشَّيْءُ تَدْعُو إِلَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَلَقَدْ كَانَ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ أَحَدٌ يَتَنَفَّسُ أَبْغَضَ إِلَيَّ مِنْهُ، فَمَا بَرِحَ حَتَّى كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ وَلَدِي وَوَالِدَيَّ وَمِنَ النَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ. قَالَ: قُلْتُ: قَدْ عَرَفْتُ، قَالَ: قَدْ عَرَفْتَ ؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: تَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ، وَتُؤْمِنُ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيَّ ؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنِّي أَرِدُ مَاءً عَلَيْهِ كَثِيرٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ، فَأَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى مَا دَعَوْتَنِي إِلَيْهِ، فَإِنِّي أَرْجُو أَنْ يَتَّبِعُوكَ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَادْعُهُمْ. فَأَسْلَمَ أَهْلُ ذَلِكَ الْمَاءِ، رِجَالُهُمْ وَنِسَاؤُهُمْ، فَمَسَحَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ.

✧ May Allah have mercy on a person who is easy in selling, easy in buying, easy in taking, easy in giving, easy in settling debts, and easy in demanding repayment. Then he went on. I said to myself, 'Is this the Hashimite who has led people astray? Indeed, it is he!' I looked, and behold, he was a man with a handsome body, a broad forehead, a fine nose, and thin eyebrows. Behold, from the hollow of his throat to his navel was like a black thread of black hair, and he was between two worn garments. He said: He drew near to us and said, 'Peace be upon you.' We returned the greeting. I did not hesitate and said, 'By Allah, I will investigate this, for he speaks well.' I followed him and said, 'O Muhammad.' He turned fully to me and said, 'What do you want?' I said, 'Are you the one who has led people astray, destroyed them, and turned them away from what their fathers worshipped?' He said, 'That is Allah.' I said, 'What do you call to?' He said, 'I call Allah's servants to Allah.' He said: I said, 'What do you say?' He said, 'Do you bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, believe in what has been revealed to me, disbelieve in Al-Lat and Al-ʿUzza, establish prayer, and give zakah?' He said: I said, 'And what is zakah?' He said, 'Our rich give back to our poor.' He said: I said, 'What an excellent thing you call to.' He said: By then, there was no one on earth who breathed more hateful to me than him, and it was not long before he became dearer to me than my children, my parents, and all people. He said: I said, 'I have understood.' He said, 'You have understood?' I said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Do you bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and believe in what has been revealed to me?' I said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah. I frequent a watering place where many people gather, and I will call them to what you have called me to, for I hope they will follow you.' He said, 'Yes, call them.' So the people of that watering place embraced Islam, men and women. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wiped his head.
