يَا آلَ ذَرِيحْ قَوْلٌ فَصِيحْ

ahmad:16695Muḥammad b. Bakr al-Bursānī > ʿUbaydullāh b. Abū Ziyād > ʿAbdullāh b. Kathīr al-Dārī > Mujāhid

[Machine] Narrated to us a sheikh who experienced the pre-Islamic era and we were in the expedition of Roodees, known as Ibn Abis. He said, "I used to drive a cow for our family. One day, I heard a loud voice coming from its stomach saying, 'O family of Dharih, there is a man loudly proclaiming that there is no god but Allah.' He said, "So we approached Makkah and found the Prophet had already left Makkah."  

أحمد:١٦٦٩٥حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ الْبُرْسَانِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الدَّارِيُّ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ

حَدَّثَنَا شَيْخٌ أَدْرَكَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةَ وَنَحْنُ فِي غَزْوَةِ رُودِسَ يُقَالُ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبْسٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَسُوقُ لِآلٍ لَنَا بَقَرَةً قَالَ فَسَمِعْتُ مِنْ جَوْفِهَا يَا آلَ ذَرِيحٍ قَوْلٌ فَصِيحٌ رَجُلٌ يَصِيحُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ قَالَ فَقَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ فَوَجَدْنَا النَّبِيَّ قَدْ خَرَجَ بِمَكَّةَ

We were told by a shaykh who ˹lived during˺ the jāhilī (pre-Islamic period ˹of ignorance˺, while we were in the battle of Rudis, known as Ibn ʿAbs. He said: I used to herd a cow for my family. I heard a clear voice coming from its belly: "O family of Dharīḥ, an eloquent speech, a man calling out that there is no god but Allah." He said, "So we arrived at Mecca and found the Prophet ﷺ had already come out ˹as a Prophet˺."
