Do you need strong, fortified protection? The tribe of Daus had a fort in the pre-Islamic days. The Apostle ﷺ declined this offer, since it (the privilege of protecting the Holy Prophet) had already been reserved for the Ansar. When the Apostle ﷺ migrated to Medina, Tufail son of Amr also migrated to that place, and there also migrated along with him a man of his tribe. But the climate of Medina did not suit him, and he fell sick. He felt very uneasy. So he took hold of an iron head of an arrow and cut his finger-joints. The blood streamed forth from his hands, till he died. Tufail son of Amr saw him in a dream. His state was good and he saw him with his hands wrapped. He (Tufail) said to him: What treatment did your Allah accord to you? He replied. Allah granted me pardon for my migration to the Apostle ﷺ: He (Tufail) again said: What is this that I see you wrapping up your hands? He replied: I was told (by Allah): We would not set right anything of yours which you damaged yourself. Tufail narrated this (dream) to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Upon this he prayed: O Allah I grant pardon even to his hands.  

أَنَّ الطُّفَيْلَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو الدَّوْسِيَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ لَكَ فِي حِصْنٍ حَصِينٍ وَمَنَعَةٍ قَالَ حِصْنٌ كَانَ لِدَوْسٍ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَأَبَى ذَلِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِلَّذِي ذَخَرَ اللَّهُ لِلأَنْصَارِ فَلَمَّا هَاجَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ الطُّفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو وَهَاجَرَ مَعَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ فَاجْتَوَوُا الْمَدِينَةَ فَمَرِضَ فَجَزِعَ فَأَخَذَ مَشَاقِصَ لَهُ فَقَطَعَ بِهَا بَرَاجِمَهُ فَشَخَبَتْ يَدَاهُ حَتَّى مَاتَ فَرَآهُ الطُّفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو فِي مَنَامِهِ فَرَآهُ وَهَيْئَتُهُ حَسَنَةٌ وَرَآهُ مُغَطِّيًا يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا صَنَعَ بِكَ رَبُّكَ فَقَالَ غَفَرَ لِي بِهِجْرَتِي إِلَى نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا لِي أَرَاكَ مُغَطِّيًا يَدَيْكَ قَالَ قِيلَ لِي لَنْ نُصْلِحَ مِنْكَ مَا أَفْسَدْتَ فَقَصَّهَا الطُّفَيْلُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ اللَّهُمَّ وَلِيَدَيْهِ فَاغْفِرْ

أَنَّ الطُّفَيْلَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو الدَّوْسِيَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَلْ لَكَ فِي حِصْنٍ حَصِينَةٍ وَمَنْعَةٍ؟ قَالَ فَقَالَ حِصْنٌ كَانَ لِدَوْسٍ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَأَبَى ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِلَّذِي ذَخَرَ اللهُ ﷻ لِلْأَنْصَارِ فَلَمَّا هَاجَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ الطُّفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو وَهَاجَرَ مَعَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ فَاجْتَوَوْا الْمَدِينَةَ فَمَرِضَفَجَزِعَ فَأَخَذَ مَشَاقِصَ لَهُ فَقَطَعَ بِهَا بَرَاجِمَهُ فَشَخَبَتْ يَدَاهُ حَتَّى مَاتَ فَرَآهُ الطُّفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو فِي مَنَامِهِ فَرَآهُ فِي هَيْئَةٍ حَسَنَةٍ وَرَآهُ مُغَطِّيًا يَدَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا صَنَعَ بِكَ رَبُّكَ؟ قَالَ غَفَرَ لِي بِهِجْرَتِي إِلَى نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَمَا لِي أَرَاكَ مُغَطِّيًا يَدَكَ؟ قَالَ قِيلَ لِي لَنْ نُصْلِحَ مِنْكَ مَا أَفْسَدْتَ قَالَ فَقَصَّهَا الطُّفَيْلُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اللهُمَّ وَلِيَدَيْهِ فَاغْفِرْ  

[Machine] To the Prophet ﷺ , "Do you have a fortress and a fortress that prevents the entry of foes?" So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to a storage area for the Ansar and said, "Tufayl emigrated and a man from his people emigrated with him. But the man fell ill and said a word that made him distraught. He came to a horn and took a knife and cut his veins, and he died. Tufayl saw him in a dream and said, "What did Allah do to you?" He said, "He forgave me for my emigration to the Prophet ﷺ ." He said, "What is wrong with your hands?" He said, "I was told that we will not fix from you what you have damaged yourself." Tufayl narrated it to the Prophet ﷺ and he said, "Oh Allah, be a guardian to his parents and forgive him." And he raised his hands.  

لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ هَلْ لَكَ فِي حِصْنٍ وَمَنَعَةِ حِصْنِ دَوْسٍ فَأَتَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِمِذْخَرٍ لِلْأَنْصَارِ قَالَ فَهَاجَرَ الطُّفَيْلُ وَهَاجَرَ مَعَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ فَمَرِضَ الرَّجُلُ قَالَ فَضَجِرَ أَوْ كَلِمَةً شَبَهَهُ فَجَاءَ إِلَى قَرْنٍ فَأَخَذَ مِشْقَصًا فَقَطَعَ رَوَاجِبَهُ فَمَاتَ فَرَآهُ الطُّفَيْلُ فِي الْمَنَامِ فَقَالَ مَا فَعَلَ اللَّهُ بِكَ؟ قَالَ غَفَرَ لِي بِهِجْرَتِي إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا شَأْنُ يَدَيْكَ؟ قَالَ قِيلَ لِي إِنَّا لَنْ نُصْلِحَ مِنْكَ مَا أَفْسَدْتَ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ قَالَ فَقَصَّهَا الطُّفَيْلُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ وَلِيَدَيْهِ فَاغْفِرْ» وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ
