✧ He said: May Allah make life ugly after the slain of Badr. He said, 'Yes, by Allah, there is no good in life after them. Were it not for a debt upon me which I find no means to repay, and dependents for whom I leave nothing, I would travel to Muhammad and kill him if I filled my eyes with him. For I have a pretext with which to excuse myself to him: I will say I came to visit this son of mine, the captive.' Safwan rejoiced at his words and said, 'Your debt is upon me, and your dependents are like my own dependents in maintenance; if anything suffices me, I will not fail them.' So Safwan carried him and equipped him, and ordered ʿUmayr's sword to be polished and poisoned. ʿUmayr said to Safwan, 'Keep my affair secret for some days.' Then ʿUmayr set out until he reached Madinah. He dismounted at the gate of the mosque, hobbled his mount, took the sword, and headed for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. ʿUmar b. al-Khattab ؓ saw him while he was among a group of the Ansar talking about the event of Badr and mentioning Allah's blessing in it. When ʿUmar saw him with the sword, he was alarmed and said, 'This is the dog! This is an enemy of Allah, the one who stirred up enmity between us on the Day of Badr and estimated our numbers for the people.' Then ʿUmar arose and entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'This is ʿUmayr b. Wahb; he has entered the mosque carrying his sword. He is the treacherous, wicked one. O Prophet of Allah, do not trust him.' He said, 'Bring him in.' ʿUmar went out and ordered his companions to enter upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and then to guard against ʿUmayr when he entered upon them. Then ʿUmar and ʿUmayr entered until they came before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and with ʿUmayr was his sword. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to ʿUmar, 'Step back from him.' When ʿUmayr drew near, he said, 'May you have a pleasant morning' — that being the greeting of the people of the Jahiliyyah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Allah has honored us above your greeting and made our greeting the greeting of the people of Paradise, which is the salam.' ʿUmayr said, 'Your acquaintance with it is recent indeed.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Allah has replaced it for us with something better. So what has brought you here, O ʿUmayr?' He said, 'I came concerning our captives, for you are kinsfolk and family.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Then what is the matter with the sword on your neck?' ʿUmayr said, 'May Allah curse such swords! Have they availed us anything? I simply forgot it on my neck when I dismounted. By my life, I do care for it.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Tell me the truth: what has brought you here?' He said, 'I came only for my captive.' He said, 'Then what did you stipulate with Safwan b. Umayyah in the Hijr?' ʿUmayr was startled and said, 'What did I stipulate with him?' He said, 'You undertook to kill me in return for his supporting your sons and paying your debt. And Allah stands between you and that.' ʿUmayr said, 'I bear witness that you are the Messenger of Allah, and I bear witness that there is no god but Allah. O Messenger of Allah, we used to deny you regarding the revelation and what came to you from heaven. This conversation between me and Safwan in the Hijr was just as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: no one knew of it except him and me. Then Allah informed you of it. So I believe in Allah and His Messenger. Praise be to Allah who has brought me to this course.' The Muslims rejoiced when Allah guided him. ʿUmar said, 'By Him in whose hand is my soul, a pig was dearer to me than ʿUmayr when he appeared, but he is dearer to me than some of my own sons.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Sit down, O ʿUmayr, we will console you.' And he said to his companions, 'Teach your brother the Qur'an, and release his captive.' ʿUmayr said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I used to strive as much as I could to extinguish the light of Allah. Praise be to Allah who has brought me and guided me. Permit me to join Quraysh and call them to Allah and to Islam; perhaps Allah will guide them and save them from destruction.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ permitted him, so he went to Makkah. Safwan b. Umayyah began saying to Quraysh in their gatherings, 'Rejoice at a victory that will make you forget the event of Badr,' and he kept asking every rider who arrived from Madinah whether anything had happened there, hoping for what he had said. Then a man from Madinah arrived, and Safwan b. Umayyah asked about him. He said, 'He has accepted Islam.' The polytheists cursed him and said, 'He has apostatized.' Safwan said, 'It is incumbent upon me before Allah never to benefit him with any expenditure and never to speak to him a single word of my own accord.' ʿUmayr came to them and called them to Islam and gave them sincere advice to the best of his effort, and many people accepted Islam.
