[Machine] We were sitting in the mirbad and I appeared to be the youngest among the people. Then, a man from the Bedouins came to us, and when we saw him, we said, "It seems that this man is not from the people of this town." He said, "Yes, and he has a book wrapped in a piece of red leather or perhaps he said a piece of cloth." He said, "This is a book that was written for me by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . It has the phrase 'In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful' in it, and it is from Muhammad the Prophet to the sons of Zuhayr bin Uqaysh, and they are still alive from the tribe of Ukl. Verily, if you establish the prayer, give the Zakat, separate from the polytheists, give one fifth of the booty, and then give the Prophet his portion and Safiyah her portion, and perhaps he said that he gave them their portion, then you are safe in the protection of Allah and the protection of His Messenger." They said, "Come, tell us what you have heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." He leaned against a sheet and took it, then he hurried away, and said, "Don't you see that you fear that I will lie about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? By Allah, I will not tell you a narration today."

[Machine] I was with Muttarif in the camel market, when an Arab man came with him, carrying a piece of leather or a bag. He said, "Who can read? Is there anyone among you who can read?" I said, "Yes," so I took it and found written on it, "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, from Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, to the Bani Zuhair ibn Uqaysh, O living ones from Ukl. Verily, they bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. They have separated from the polytheists and have accepted the division of spoils and the share of the Prophet ﷺ and his chosen ones. Indeed, they believe in the security of Allah and His Messenger." So, some people said to him, "Did you hear anything from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that you can tell us?" He said, "Yes." They said, "Then tell us, may Allah have mercy on you." He said, "I heard him saying, 'Whoever wants to remove a lot of hardness from his chest, let him fast the month of patience and three days from every month.'" Then, some of the people said to him, "Did you hear this from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He replied, "Do you not see that you accuse me of lying about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" Then, Ismail said once, "You fear and by Allah, I will not narrate to you any other hadith today," and then he left.

[Machine] We were sitting in Al-Mirbad when a man from the desert came to us. When we saw him, we said, "This man doesn't seem to be from the city." He said, "Yes, and he has a book in a piece of leather." He said, "It might be in a leather bag." Then he said, "This is a book written for me by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . And it begins with 'In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.' This is a book from Muhammad, the Prophet, the Messenger of Allah, for the Banu Zuhayr bin Uqaysh, who are alive, from the tribe of Aqil. Verily, if you establish prayer, give zakat, separate yourselves from the idolaters, give one-fifth of the spoils, and give the share to the Prophet and to Safiyyah, and it might be said, "And Safiyyah", you will be under the protection of Allah and His Messenger." He then mentioned the meaning of the hadith of Al-Jurayriyyah.

[Machine] We were in Al-Mirbad when suddenly a man with disheveled hair in his hand a piece of parchment. We said to him, "Are you a man from the desert?" He replied, "Yes." We told him, "Give us this piece of parchment that you have in your hand." So, we took it and read what was written on it. It said, "From Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, to the Banu Zuhayr: Give one-fifth of the spoils and the share of the Prophet and Al-Saffi. And you are safe under the protection of Allah and His Messenger." We asked him, "Who wrote this for you?" He said, "The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ ." We asked him, "Did you hear anything from him?" He said, "Yes, I heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , say, 'Fasting during the month of patience and three days from every month will remove the burning sensation from the chests.'" We said to him, "Did you hear anything from the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ ?" He replied, "Do you not accuse me? By Allah, I will not tell you anything more." Then, he left.

[Machine] While we were in Murbad, a Bedouin came to us, his hair disheveled, carrying a piece of cloth or a piece of a bag. We said, "It seems that he is not from the people of this land." He said, "No, this is a book that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wrote for me." The people then said, "Bring it to us." So I took it and read it, and it began with "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This is a book from Muhammad, the Prophet, the Messenger of Allah, to the Bani Zuhair ibn Uqaysh." Abu Al-Ala' said, "They are a noble tribe from the 'Ukl tribe. Indeed, if you testify that there is no god but Allah, establish prayer, pay Zakat, separate from the polytheists, and give one-fifth of the spoils and the Prophet's share, as well as the share of Safiyah, then you are guaranteed the security of Allah and the security of His Messenger."
