"عَنْ عُبَيْدِ الله بْن مَوْهب، قَالَ: أوَّلُ مَنْ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ هَاشِمٍ وَالْمُطَّلِبِ في الدَّعْوَة، عَبْدُ المَلك بْنُ مَرْوَانَ، قَدِمَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَبْدُ الله بْنُ قَيس بْن مَخْرَمَةَ أخُو بَنى عَبْدِ الْمُطلِب، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ الْمَلِك: لَقَدْ رَضِيْتَ يَا عَبْدَ الله أنْ تُدْعَى لغَيْرِ أَبيكَ فَتُجِيبَ، قَالَ: أَمْرٌ صَنَعَهُ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ فَكَيْفَ لى بِذَلِكَ؟ ! قَالَ سَلْنى أَنْ أُقِرَّكُمْ عَلَى عَرِيفٍ فَأَفْعَل، فَلَمَّا أَذِنَ النَّاس منَ الْغَدِ، قَامَ عَبْدُ الله بْنُ قَيْسٍ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَميرَ الْمُؤْمِنينَ: إِنا أَصْبَحْنَا لَيْسَ لَنَا عَرِيفٌ: إِنَّمَا يُدْعَى بَنُو هَاشمٍ فَنُجِيبُ، فَاجْعَلْ لَنَا عَرِيفًا، فَكَتَبَ لَهُ، أنْ يُعَرَّفُوا عَلَى عَريفٍ، وَيَكُون ذَلِكَ إِلَى عَبْدِ الله بْنِ قَيْسٍ، يَليهَا وَيُوَلِّيهَا منْ أحَبَّ".

"From 'Ubayd Allah ibn Mawhab, who said: The first to separate Hashim and al-Muttalib in the call was 'Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan. 'Abdullah ibn Qays ibn Makhramah, brother of the Banu 'Abd al-Muttalib, came to them, and 'Abd al-Malik said to him: You are content, O 'Abdullah, to be called by other than your father and to answer? He said: It is a matter the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did, so how can I do otherwise? He said: Ask me that I may confirm you in a tribal leader, and I will do it. When the people were given permission the next day, 'Abdullah ibn Qays stood up and said: O Commander of the Faithful, we woke up without a leader; the Banu Hashim are only called and we answer, so appoint a leader for us. So he wrote to him that they should be placed under a leader, and that this would be the responsibility of 'Abdullah ibn Qays, who would govern it and appoint whom he wished."
