bayhaqi:13368Abū ʿAlī al-Rūdhbārī > Muḥammad b. Bakr > Abū Dāwud > Muslim b. Ibrāhīm > Qurrah > Yazīd b. ʿAbdullāh / Ibn al-Shikhhīr

We were at Mirbad. A man with dishevelled hair and holding a piece of red skin in his hand came. We said: You appear to be a bedouin. He said: Yes. We said: Give us this piece of skin in your hand. He then gave it to us and we read it. It contained the text: "From Muhammad, Messenger of Allah ﷺ, to Banu Zuhayr ibn Uqaysh. If you bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, offer prayer, pay zakat, pay the fifth from the booty, and the portion of the Prophet ﷺ and his special portion (safi), you will be under by the protection of Allah and His Apostle." We then asked: Who wrote this document for you? He replied: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2999)   

البيهقي:١٣٣٦٨أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا قُرَّةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ يَزِيدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الشِّخِّيرِ قَالَ

كُنَّا بِالْمِرْبَدِ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ أَشْعَثُ الرَّأْسِ بِيَدِهِ قِطْعَةُ أَدِيمٍ أَحْمَرَ فَقُلْنَا كَأَنَّكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ قَالَ أَجَلْ قُلْنَا نَاوِلْنَا هَذِهِ الْقِطْعَةَ الْأَدِيمَ فَنَاوَلَنَاهَا فَقَرَأْنَا مَا فِيهَا فَإِذَا فِيهَا مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللهِ إِلَى بَنِي زُهَيْرِ بْنِ أُقَيْشٍ إِنَّكُمْ إِنْ شَهِدْتُمْ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ وَأَقَمْتُمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَآتَيْتُمُ الزَّكَاةَ وَأَدَّيْتُمُ الْخُمُسَ مِنَ الْمَغْنَمِ وَسَهْمَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَسَهْمَ الصَّفِيِّ أَنْتُمْ آمِنُونَ بِأَمَانِ اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ قُلْنَا مَنْ كَتَبَ هَذَا لَكَ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
