[Machine] She said, "What are you doing to me in front of people, announcing our relationship before both of them?" He said, "Are you renting me to the polytheists?" So he left and she said, "O mother of Hanin, I went to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I have never seen anything from my son that I could barely escape from him. I hired him for protection against the polytheists, and he started to chase them to kill them.' The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, 'That was not for him. I have already granted rewards to those who deserve them and granted safety to those who deserve it.' So I went back to them and informed them, and they went back to their homes. It was said to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, that Al-Harith bin Hisham and Abdullah bin Abi Rabee'ah were sitting among their friends, whispering in the midst of a dark gathering. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, 'There is no way to them. We have granted them safety.' Al-Harith bin Hisham said, 'I felt shy for the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, to see me and to mention my vision in every place among the polytheists. Then I mentioned his kindness and mercy, so I met him while he was entering the mosque. He greeted me with glad tidings and waited until I approached him to greet him and bear witness to the truth. He said, 'Praise be to Allah who guided you. There was no one like you who was ignorant of Islam.'" Al-Harith said, "By Allah, I have never seen anything like Islam being unknown."
