٢٤۔٢٩ كِتَابُ الْهِجْرَةِ الْأُولَى إِلَى الْحَبَشَةِ
[Machine] "And the news spread that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died, he and the Muslims were subjected to harm from the polytheists after his death. The Prophet ﷺ said to them when they were tested and their tribes turned against them, 'Disperse and head towards the land of Habasha (Ethiopia),' which was a land to which the Quraysh used to migrate in the winter. It was the first migration in Islam, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered his companions to migrate to the land of Najashi (the King of Habasha) due to his fairness."
«وَتَوَاتَرَتِ الْأَخْبَارُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا مَاتَ عَمُّهُ أَبُو طَالِبٍ لَقِيَ هُوَ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ أَذًى مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حِينَ ابْتُلُوا وَشَطَّتْ بِهِمْ عَشَائِرُهُمْ تَفَرَّقُوا، وَأَشَارَ قِبَلَ أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ وَكَانَتْ أَرْضًا فِيهِ تَرْحَلُ إِلَيْهَا قُرَيْشٌ رِحْلَةَ الشِّتَاءِ، فَكَانَتْ أُولَى الْهِجْرَةِ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَإِنَّمَا أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَصْحَابَهُ بِالْخُرُوجِ إِلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ لِعَدْلِهِ»
