✧ He informed him that when the Messenger of God ﷺ left Makkah as an emigrant to Madinah, Quraysh offered a hundred she-camels to whoever brought him back. He said: While I was sitting in the assembly of my people, a man from among us came and said: By God, I have just seen three riders pass by me; I think it is Muhammad. He said: I gestured to him to be quiet and said: They are only the sons of so-and-so following a stray animal of theirs. He said: Perhaps. Then he fell silent. I remained for a little while, then I got up and ordered that my horse be led to the bottom of the valley. I took out my weapons from behind my room, then took my divining arrows with which I sought omens, then put on my armor. Then I brought out my divining arrows and drew omens with them, and the arrow I disliked came out: that I would not harm him. I had been hoping to bring him back and take the hundred she-camels. So I mounted and followed their tracks. While my horse was galloping with me, it stumbled and I fell off. I took out my divining arrows and drew omens, and the arrow I disliked came out: that I would not harm him. But I refused anything except to follow him. I mounted, and when the group appeared to me and I looked at them, my horse stumbled with me and its forelegs sank into the ground, and I fell. It pulled out its foreleg, and there followed it smoke like dust. Then I knew that he had been protected from me and that he would prevail. So I called out to them: Wait for me, for by God I will not cause you any harm, and nothing you dislike will come from me. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: Ask him what he wants. I said: Write for me a document between me and you as a sign. He said: Write, O Abu Bakr. He said: So he wrote for me, then threw it to me. I returned and kept silent, and did not mention anything of what had happened until God granted His Messenger victory over Makkah and he had finished with the people of Hunayn. Then I went out to the Messenger of God ﷺ with the document he had written for me. While I was making for him, I entered among a battalion of the Ansar's battalions, and they began prodding me with their spears, saying: Away with you, away with you, until I drew near to the Messenger of God ﷺ on his she-camel. I looked at his shins in the stirrup as if they were a palm pith. I stretched out my hand with the document and said: O Messenger of God, this is your document. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: A day of fulfillment and kindness; come near. So I became a Muslim.
