[Machine] Ka'b and Bujair, the sons of Zuhair, came out and mentioned the story of Bujair's conversion to Islam and Ka'b's arrival to the Prophet ﷺ and his conversion, as well as reciting his poem, the beginning of which is "Sa'ad appeared, my heart today is smitten, infatuated by her, unable to be restrained. Sa'ad is not like the morning light, when they rose, as if a dense cloud that is dug into. She reveals the injustices when she smiles, as if a flowing spring in a cup that is filled. He mentioned the poem in its entirety, which consists of forty-eight verses, and in it I was informed that the Messenger of Allah promised me forgiveness. O Messenger of Allah, I have hope in your pardon. Give me respite, O Messenger of Allah, who gave you the unique Qur'an, in which there are admonitions and detailed explanations. Do not pay attention to the words of the ignorant. I have not committed a sin, even if the rumors about me increase. Indeed, the Messenger is a light by which one seeks illumination, and he is a sword wielded from the swords of Allah, unleashed against a group of Quraysh youth who said, when they embraced Islam, "They have gone astray." And Ibrahim ibn Al-Mundhir narrated to us, and Muhammad ibn Fulayh narrated to me, from Musa ibn 'Uqbah, who said that the Prophet ﷺ recited the poem of Ka'b ibn Zuhair, "Sa'ad appeared in his mosque in Madinah, and when he reached the words, 'The Messenger is a sword by which one seeks illumination, deadly among the swords of Allah, unleashed against a group of Quraysh youth who said, when they embraced Islam, "They have gone astray,"' the speaker, from among the Quraysh, said, 'When they embraced Islam, they went astray.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointed to Makkah, indicating that they should shave their heads and come to him to hear from him."
