27. Book of the Companions
٢٧۔ كِتَابُ مَعْرِفَةِ الصَّحَابَةِ ؓ
ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ
[Machine] I followed Muhammad and I submitted to Allah, the Lord of the worlds, may His mention be glorious. Then his mother said: "Indeed, no one has more right to be supported and helped by you than your cousin, Ibn Khalik. By Allah, if we were capable of doing what men can do, we would have followed him and protected him." So I said, "Oh my mother, what prevents you from submitting and following him? Indeed, your brother Hamza has already submitted." She said, "I will see what my sisters do, then I will decide whether to join them." I said, "I ask you by Allah, won't you go to him, greet him and believe in him, and testify that there is no god except Allah?" She said, "Indeed, I testify that there is no god except Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah." After that, she pledged her allegiance to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ verbally and encouraged her son to support him and follow his orders. This statement is reported to be authentic but not compiled in the collection of Sahih Al-Bukhari.
أَسْلَمَ طُلَيْبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ فِي دَارِ الْأَرْقَمِ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ فَخَرَجَ عَلَى أُمِّهِ وَهِيَ أَرْوَى بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ فَقَالَ تَبِعْتُ مُحَمَّدًا وَأَسْلَمْتُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ فَقَالَتْ أُمُّهُ إِنَّ أَحَقَّ مَنْ وَازَرْتَ وَمَنْ عَاضَدْتَ ابْنُ خَالِكَ وَاللَّهِ لَوْ كُنَّا نَقْدِرُ عَلَى مَا يَقْدِرُ عَلَيْهِ الرِّجَالُ لَتَبِعْنَاهُ وَلَذَبَبْنَا عَنْهُ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا أُمَّاهُ وَمَا يَمْنَعُكِ أَنْ تُسْلِمِي وَتَتَّبِعِيهِ فَقَدْ أَسْلَمَ أَخُوكِ حَمْزَةُ؟ فَقَالَتْ أَنْظُرُ مَا يَصْنَعُ أَخَوَاتِي ثُمَّ أَكُونُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ قَالَ قُلْتُ أَسْأَلُكِ بِاللَّهِ أَلَا أَتَيْتِهِ فَسَلَّمْتِ عَلَيْهِ وَصَدَّقْتِهِ وَشَهِدْتِ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ قَالَتْ فَإِنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكَانَتْ بَعْدَ تُعَضِّدُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِلِسَانِهَا وَتَحُضُّ ابْنَهَا عَلَى نُصْرَتِهِ وَبِالْقِيَامِ بِأَمْرِهِ «صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ الْبُخَارِيِّ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ»
