وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ، أَخْبَرَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ أَخُو عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، بِالشَّامِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ:

كَانَتْ أُمُّ عَبْدِ اللهِ بِنْتُ مُنَبِّهِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ تَلْطُفُ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَأَتَاهَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ، فَقَالَ: كَيْفَ أَنْتِ يَا أُمَّ عَبْدِ اللهِ ؟ قَالَتْ: بِخَيْرٍ. فَكَيْفَ أَنْتَ بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: بِخَيْرٍ، قَالَ ﷺ: وَكَيْفَ عَبْدُ اللهِ ؟ قَالَتْ: بِخَيْرٍ، وَعَبْدُ اللهِ رَجُلٌ تَرَكَ الدُّنْيَا، فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُوهُ يَوْمَ صِفِّينَ: اخْرُجْ فَقَاتِلْ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَتِ ! كَيْفَ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ ؟ وَقَدْ كَانَ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَا قَدْ سَمِعْتَ ؟ قَالَ: نَشَدْتُكَ بِاللهِ، أَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّ آخِرَ مَا كَانَ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَخَذَ بِيَدِكَ فَوَضَعَهَا فِي يَدِي، فَقَالَ: أَطِعْ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْعَاصِ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: آمُرُكَ أَنْ تُقَاتِلَ، فَخَرَجَ فَقَاتَلَ، فَلَمَّا وَقَعَتِ الْحَرْبُ، أَنْشَأَ عَمْرٌو ؓ، يَقُولُ: شَبَّتِ الْحَرْبُ فَأَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا مُفْرِعَ الْحَارِكِ مَرْوِيَّ الثَّبَجْ يَصِلُ الشَّدَّ بِشَدٍّ وَإِذَا وَثَبَ الْخَيْلُ مِنَ الشَّدِّ مَعَجْ جُرْشُعٌ أَعْظَمُهُ جُفْرَتُهُ فَإِذَا وَثَبَ مِنَ الْمَاءِ حَدَجْ وَقَالَ عَمْرٌو ؓ أَيْضًا: لَوْ شَهِدَتْ جُمْلٌ مَقَامِي وَمَشْهَدِي بِصِفِّينَ يَوْمًا شَابَ مِنْهَا الذَّوَائِبُ عَشِيَّةَ جَاءَ أَهْلُ الْعِرَاقِ كَأَنَّهُمْ سَحَابُ رَبِيعٍ رَفَّعَتْهُ الْجَنَائِبُ وَجِئْنَاهُمْ تَرَدَّى كَأَنَّ سُيُوفَنَا مِنَ الْبَحْرِ مَدٌّ مَوْجُهُ مُتَرَاكِبُ إِذَا قُلْتُ قَدْ وَلَّوْا سِرَاعًا بَدَتْ لَنَا كَتَائِبُ مِنْهُمْ وَارْجَحَنَّتْ كَتَائِبُ فَدَارَتْ رَحَانَا وَاسْتَدَارَتْ رَحَاهُمُ سَرَاةَ النَّهَارِ مَا تَوَلَّى الْمَنَاكِبُ فَقَالُوا لَنَا إِنَّا نَرَى أَنْ تُبَايِعُوا عَلِيًّا فَقُلْنَا: بَلْ نَرَى أَنْ نُضَارِبَ.

✧ Umm Abdullah bt. Munabbih b. al-Hajjaj used to be kind to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He came to her one day and said: 'How are you, O Umm Abdullah?' She said: 'Fine. How are you, may my father and mother be your ransom, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'Fine.' He ﷺ said: 'How is Abdullah?' She said: 'Fine.' Abdullah was a man who had renounced the world. His father said to him on the day of Siffin: 'Go out and fight.' He said: 'O my father, how can you order me to fight when you know what was in the covenant of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' He said: 'I adjure you by Allah, do you know that the last thing in the covenant of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was that he took your hand and placed it in mine and said: "Obey Amr b. al-As"?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'I order you to fight.' So he went out and fought. When the battle began, Amr ؓ started reciting: 'The war blazed, and I prepared for it a horse with a high withers, well-watered in the back, connecting charge with charge, and when the horses leapt from the charge, they stirred. A sturdy one, whose chest cavity was broad, and when it leapt from the water, it splashed.' And Amr ؓ also said: 'If Jamal had witnessed my stand and my presence at Siffin, a day when its forelocks turned gray, the evening the people of Iraq came like spring clouds raised by the winds, and we came to them in ranks, as if our swords were a tide from the sea with waves piling up. When I said they had fled swiftly, battalions of them appeared to us, and battalions swayed. Our mill turned and their mill turned through the height of the day, until the shoulders turned away. They said to us: We think you should pledge allegiance to Ali. We said: Rather we think we should strike.'
