Some Muslim men emigrated to Ethiopia whereupon Abu Bakr also prepared himself for the emigration, but the Prophet ﷺ said (to him), "Wait, for I hope that Allah will allow me also to emigrate." Abu Bakr said, "Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you. Do you hope that (emigration)?" The Prophet said, 'Yes." So Abu Bakr waited to accompany the Prophet ﷺ and fed two she-camels he had on the leaves of As-Samur tree regularly for four months One day while we were sitting in our house at midday, someone said to Abu Bakr, "Here is Messenger of Allah ﷺ, coming with his head and a part of his face covered with a cloth-covering at an hour he never used to come to us." Abu Bakr said, "Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you, (O Prophet)! An urgent matter must have brought you here at this hour." The Prophet ﷺ came and asked the permission to enter, and he was allowed. The Prophet ﷺ entered and said to Abu Bakr, "Let those who are with you, go out." Abu Bakr replied, "(There is no stranger); they are your family. Let my father be sacrificed for you, O Allah's Apostle!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "I have been allowed to leave (Mecca)." Abu Bakr said, " I shall accompany you, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Let my father be sacrificed for you!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes," Abu Bakr said, 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺs! Let my father be sacrificed for you. Take one of these two shecamels of mine" The Prophet ﷺ said. I will take it only after paying its price." So we prepared their baggage and put their journey food In a leather bag. And Asma' bint Abu Bakr cut a piece of her girdle and tied the mouth of the leather bag with it. That is why she was called Dhatan- Nitaqaln. Then the Prophet ﷺ and Abu Bakr went to a cave in a mountain called Thour and remained there for three nights. ʿAbdullah bin Abu Bakr. who was a young intelligent man. used to stay with them at night and leave before dawn so that in the morning, he would he with the Quraish at Mecca as if he had spent the night among them. If he heard of any plot contrived by the Quraish against the Prophet and Abu Bakr, he would understand it and (return to) inform them of it when it became dark. 'Amir bin Fuhaira, the freed slave of Abu Bakr used to graze a flock of milch sheep for them and he used to take those sheep to them when an hour had passed after the ʿIsha prayer. They would sleep soundly till 'Amir bin Fuhaira awakened them when it was still dark. He used to do that in each of those three nights.

[Machine] I went out with Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman ibn Abdullah ibn Abi Rabee'ah. Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman sent Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman to ibn Saad. When we were in Al-Arj, a son of Saad and Saad himself, who accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in his journey, came to us. Ibrahim asked me, "What did your father tell you?" Ibn Saad replied, "My father told me that the Messenger of Allah came to them with Abu Bakr. Abu Bakr had a nursling daughter with them. The Messenger of Allah intended to shorten the journey to Madinah, so Saad said, 'This is a she-camel from Al-Ghair which has two disorders, but there are two men from the Muslims who are called Al-Muhanaan (the humiliated). If you want, we can replace them with you.' The Prophet ﷺ accepted and said, 'Yes, replace them with us.' Saad said, 'Then we set out until one of them said to his companion, 'This is the Yamani.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called them and presented Islam to them, and they embraced Islam. Then he asked them their names, and they said, 'We are Al-Muhanaan.' He said, 'No, you are Al-Mukraman (honored).' He ordered them to go ahead to Madinah. We continued until we reached Dhaher Qubaa, where Bani Amr Ibn Awf met us. The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'Where is Abu Umamah As'ad ibn Zurarah?' Saad ibn Khaythamah replied, 'He was hurt before me, O Messenger of Allah. Shouldn't I inform him about you?' Then he went until he reached the palm grove and found the water filled. The Prophet ﷺ looked at Abu Bakr and said, 'O Abu Bakr, this is the place where I saw myself descending into a grassy area like the grassy area of Bani Mudlij.'

[Machine] Amr al-Adib informed Abu Bakr al-Isma'ili, who informed Abu Abdullah al-Sufi, who narrated that Khalaf ibn Salim al-Mukharrimi informed Abu Usama, who narrated that Hisham ibn Uruah narrated from his father, from Aisha, that Abu Bakr sought permission from the Prophet ﷺ to leave Makkah. He mentioned the hadith regarding migration and they were followed by Amir ibn Fuhayra. He said, "Amir ibn Fuhayra was killed on the day of Ma'unah and Amr ibn Umaya al-Damri was captured." Amir ibn Fuhayra asked, "Who is this?," pointing to the dead. Amr ibn Umaya al-Damri replied, "This is Amir ibn Fuhayra." Amir ibn Fuhayra said, "Indeed, I saw him after he was killed, he was raised to the sky. I could see him between the sky and the earth." He then came to the Prophet ﷺ with the news and he mourned for them and said, "Indeed, your companions have been affected. They have asked their Lord and He has responded, saying, 'Our Lord, inform our brothers about our situation, that we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us.'" He then informed them about it. He said, "On that day, Uruah ibn Asma' ibn Salit was injured. He was known as Uruah, and Munther ibn Umar was injured. He was known as Munther."
