[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wrote to Heraclius, the great ruler of the Romans, saying: 'Peace be upon those who abide by guidance.' Abdul Razzaq reported that Ibn Abbas did not differ with him in this matter."  

رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَتَبَ إِلَى هِرَقْلَ عَظِيمِ الرُّومِ سَلَامٌ عَلَى مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الْهُدَى قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ وَلَمْ يُجَاوِزْ بِهِ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wrote to Caesar inviting him to Islam, and he sent his letter to him along with the gift of Dihya al-Kalbi. In the letter, the Prophet mentioned the hadith in which Ibn Abbas said Abu Sufyan narrated to him about the sending of Heraclius to him, his meeting with him, and his questioning him about him. Abu Sufyan said: "Then he called for the letter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and ordered it to be read. And behold, it began with 'In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful' [Al-Fatiha 1], from Muhammad, servant of Allah and His Messenger, to Heraclius, the mighty ruler of the Romans. Peace be upon those who follow guidance. To proceed..."
