أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نِيَارٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ فِي غَزْوَةٍ غَزَاهَا حَتَّى كَانَ بِكَذَا وَكَذَا لَحِقَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَانَ شَدِيدًا فَفَرِحُوا بِهِ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ «جِئْتُ لَأَكُونَ مَعَكَ وَأُصِيبُ» قَالَ «إِنَّا لَا نَسْتَعِينُ بِمُشْرِكٍ» قَالَ «ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ فَأَسْلَمَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ فَانْطَلَقَ مَعَهُ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out on a military expedition. When he reached such-and-such a place, a man from the polytheists who was strong caught up with him. They were pleased with him. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I have come to be with you and to gain spoils." He said: "We do not seek help from a polytheist." He said that three times. Then he embraced Islam the fourth time and went with him.
