"عن وائل (نائل) بنِ طُفَيل بن عَمْرو الدَّوسى أنَّ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ قَعَدَ فِى مَسْجِدهِ (عِنْدَ) مُنْصَرَفه مِنَ (الطَّائِف) الأَسَاطَلِ فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ (خفاق) خفاف بن (نَضْلَة) فَضلَة بن عَمْرو بن بَهْدَلَةَ الثَّقَفِى، فَأَنشَدَ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ كم (قد) تحطمت القَلُوصُ فِى الدُّجَى... في (مَهْمَهٍ) قَفْر مِنَ الْفَلَوَاتِ (قَال) مِنَ التَوراسِ لَيْسَ بقاعِه... نَبْتٌ مِنَ الأَسْنَاتِ والأَزَمَاتِ إِنِّى أَتَانِى فِى الْمنَامِ مُسَاعِدٌ... مِنْ جن وَجْرَة كَانَ لِى وَمُواتِ يَدْعُو إِلَيْكَ لَيَالِيا وَلَيالِيا... ثم احْزَأَلَّ وقال لَسْتُ بِآتِى فَرَكِبْتُ نَاجِيَةً أَضَربِيَينْها... جَمَزٌ تَخُبُّ بهِ (على) الأكماتِ حَتَّى وَرَدْت إِلَى الْمَدِينَةَ جَاهِدًا... كَيْما أَرَاكَ فَتُفْرج الكُرُبَاتِ قَالَ: فَاسْتَحْسَنَها رَسُولُ الله ﷺ وَقَالَ: إِنَّ مِنَ البَيَانِ كَالسَّحْرِ، وإنَّ مِنَ الشِّعْر كَالْحِكَمِ".

"From Wāʾil (Nāʾil) b. Ṭufayl b. ʿAmr al-Dawsī: that the Prophet ﷺ sat in his mosque (at) his return from (al-Ṭāʾif) of the Asāṭil, and Khaffāf (Khifāf) b. (Naḍlah) Fuḍlah b. ʿAmr b. Bahdalah al-Thaqafī came to him, and he recited to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: How many a she-camel has been broken down in the darkness... in a barren (waste) desolate, of the wildernesses (he said) of the Tawārīs, in whose lowlands there is no plant, only years of drought and hardship. There came to me in a dream a helper... from the jinn of Wajrah, who was a friend of mine and a protector. He called to you for nights and nights... then he bristled and said: I am not coming. So I rode a swift she-camel, striking her flanks... a fast runner, galloping with her over the hills, until I arrived at Madinah, striving hard, that I might see you and the distresses be relieved. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ found it good and said: Indeed some eloquence is like magic, and indeed some poetry is like wisdom."
