When the Prophet ﷺ was checked from going to the Ka'ba, the people of Mecca made peace with him'on the condition that he would (be allowed to) enter Mecca (next year) and stay there for three days, that he would not enter (the city) except with swords in their sheaths and arms encased in their covers, that he would not take eway with him anyone from its dwellers, nor would he prevent anyone from those with him to stay on in Mecca (if he so desired). He said to 'Ali: Write down the terms settled between us. (So 'Ali wrote): In the name of Allah, most Gracious and most Merciful. This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, has settled (with the Meccans), The polytheists said to him: If we knew that thou art the Messenger of of Allah, we would follow you. But write: Muhammad b. 'Abdullah. So he told 'Ali to strike out these words. 'Ali said: No, by Allah, I will not strike them out. The Messenger of Allah (may Peace be upon him) said: Show me their place (on the parchment). So he ('Ali) showed him their place and he (the Holy Prophet) struck them out; and 'Ali wrote: Ibn 'Abdullah. (According to the terms of the treaty, next year) the Prophet ﷺ stayed there for three days When it was the third day, they said to 'Ali: This is the last day according to the terms of your companion. So tell him to leave. 'Ali informed the Prophet ﷺ accordingly. He said: Yes, and left (the city). Ibn Janab in his version of the tradition used:" we would swear allegiance to you" instead of" we would follow you". (Using translation from Muslim 1783c)

[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made peace with the Quraysh on the day of Hudaybiyah, he said to Ali, 'Write in the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.' So Suhayl ibn Amr said, 'We do not know the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Write in your name, O Allah.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Ali, 'Write, "This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, has agreed upon."' Suhayl ibn Amr said, 'If we knew that you were the Messenger of Allah, we would not have followed you or denied you. Write your lineage from your father.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Ali, 'Write, Muhammad ibn Abdullah.' Whoever comes from your side, we will send them back to you, and whoever comes from us, we will leave them with you.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, shall we give this to them?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Whoever comes to them from us, may Allah distance him, and whoever comes to us from them, we will send him back. Allah will create a way out for him.'"

[Machine] There was a treaty between Muawiyah and the Romans, and he used to travel towards their lands while intending, once the treaty was fulfilled, to change it upon them. Then a sheikh (an elderly man) would say, "Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! No treachery!" And it was Amr ibn Abasa. So, I asked him, and he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'If there is a treaty between people, it is not permissible to break it until its term has expired or it is mutually agreed upon.'"

(whose narrations attest each other) Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out at the time of Al-Hudaibiya (treaty), and when they proceeded for a distance, he said, "Khalid bin Al-Walid leading the cavalry of Quraish constituting the front of the army, is at a place called Al-Ghamim, so take the way on the right." By Allah, Khalid did not perceive the arrival of the Muslims till the dust arising from the march of the Muslim army reached him, and then he turned back hurriedly to inform Quraish. The Prophet ﷺ went on advancing till he reached the Thaniya (i.e. a mountainous way) through which one would go to them (i.e. people of Quraish). The she-camel of the Prophet ﷺ sat down. The people tried their best to cause the she-camel to get up but in vain, so they said, "Al-Qaswa' (i.e. the she-camel's name) has become stubborn! Al-Qaswa' has become stubborn!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Al-Qaswa' has not become stubborn, for stubbornness is not her habit, but she was stopped by Him Who stopped the elephant." Then he said, "By the Name of Him in Whose Hands my soul is, if they (i.e. the Quraish infidels) ask me anything which will respect the ordinances of Allah, I will grant it to them." The Prophet ﷺ then rebuked the she-camel and she got up. The Prophet ﷺ changed his way till he dismounted at the farthest end of Al-Hudaibiya at a pit (i.e. well) containing a little water which the people used in small amounts, and in a short while the people used up all its water and complained to Messenger of Allah ﷺ; of thirst. The Prophet ﷺ took an arrow out of his arrow-case and ordered them to put the arrow in that pit. By Allah, the water started and continued sprouting out till all the people quenched their thirst and returned with satisfaction. While they were still in that state, Budail bin Warqa-al- Khuzaʿi came with some persons from his tribe Khuzaʿa and they were the advisers of Messenger of Allah ﷺ who would keep no secret from him and were from the people of Tihama. Budail said, "I left Kaʿb bin Luai and 'Amir bin Luai residing at the profuse water of Al-Hudaibiya and they had milch camels (or their women and children) with them, and will wage war against you, and will prevent you from visiting the Kaʿba." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "We have not come to fight anyone, but to perform the ʿUmra. No doubt, the war has weakened Quraish and they have suffered great losses, so if they wish, I will conclude a truce with them, during which they should refrain from interfering between me and the people (i.e. the 'Arab infidels other than Quraish), and if I have victory over those infidels, Quraish will have the option to embrace Islam as the other people do, if they wish; they will at least get strong enough to fight. But if they do not accept the truce, by Allah in Whose Hands my life is, I will fight with them defending my Cause till I get killed, but (I am sure) Allah will definitely make His Cause victorious." Budail said, "I will inform them of what you have said." So, he set off till he reached Quraish and said, "We have come from that man (i.e. Muhammad) whom we heard saying something which we will disclose to you if you should like." Some of the fools among Quraish shouted that they were not in need of this information, but the wiser among them said, "Relate what you heard him saying." Budail said, "I heard him saying so-and-so," relating what the Prophet ﷺ had told him. ʿUrwa bin Masʿud got up and said, "O people! Aren't you the sons? They said, "Yes." He added, "Am I not the father?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Do you mistrust me?" They said, "No." He said, "Don't you know that I invited the people of ʿUkaz for your help, and when they refused I brought my relatives and children and those who obeyed me (to help you)?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Well, this man (i.e. the Prophet) has offered you a reasonable proposal, you'd better accept it and allow me to meet him." They said, "You may meet him." So, he went to the Prophet ﷺ and started talking to him. The Prophet ﷺ told him almost the same as he had told Budail. Then ʿUrwa said, "O Muhammad! Won't you feel any scruple in extirpating your relations? Have you ever heard of anyone amongst the Arabs extirpating his relatives before you? On the other hand, if the reverse should happen, (nobody will aid you, for) by Allah, I do not see (with you) dignified people, but people from various tribes who would run away leaving you alone." Hearing that, Abu Bakr abused him and said, "Do you say we would run and leave the Prophet ﷺ alone?" ʿUrwa said, "Who is that man?" They said, "He is Abu Bakr." ʿUrwa said to Abu Bakr, "By Him in Whose Hands my life is, were it not for the favor which you did to me and which I did not compensate, I would retort on you." ʿUrwa kept on talking to the Prophet ﷺ and seizing the Prophet's beard as he was talking while Al-Mughira bin Shuʿba was standing near the head of the Prophet, holding a sword and wearing a helmet. Whenever ʿUrwa stretched his hand towards the beard of the Prophet, Al-Mughira would hit his hand with the handle of the sword and say (to ʿUrwa), "Remove your hand from the beard of Messenger of Allah ﷺ." ʿUrwa raised his head and asked, "Who is that?" The people said, "He is Al-Mughira bin Shuʿba." ʿUrwa said, "O treacherous! Am I not doing my best to prevent evil consequences of your treachery?" Before embracing Islam Al-Mughira was in the company of some people. He killed them and took their property and came (to Medina) to embrace Islam. The Prophet ﷺ said (to him, "As regards your Islam, I accept it, but as for the property I do not take anything of it. (As it was taken through treason). ʿUrwa then started looking at the Companions of the Prophet. By Allah, whenever Messenger of Allah ﷺ spat, the spittle would fall in the hand of one of them (i.e. the Prophet's companions) who would rub it on his face and skin; if he ordered them they would carry his orders immediately; if he performed ablution, they would struggle to take the remaining water; and when they spoke to him, they would lower their voices and would not look at his face constantly out of respect. ʿUrwa returned to his people and said, "O people! By Allah, I have been to the kings and to Caesar, Khosrau and An- Najashi, yet I have never seen any of them respected by his courtiers as much as Muhammad is respected by his companions. By Allah, if he spat, the spittle would fall in the hand of one of them (i.e. the Prophet's companions) who would rub it on his face and skin; if he ordered them, they would carry out his order immediately; if he performed ablution, they would struggle to take the remaining water; and when they spoke, they would lower their voices and would not look at his face constantly out of respect." ʿUrwa added, "No doubt, he has presented to you a good reasonable offer, so please accept it." A man from the tribe of Bani Kinana said, "Allow me to go to him," and they allowed him, and when he approached the Prophet and his companions, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "He is so-and-so who belongs to the tribe that respects the Budn (i.e. camels of the sacrifice). So, bring the Budn in front of him." So, the Budn were brought before him and the people received him while they were reciting Talbiya. When he saw that scene, he said, "Glorified be Allah! It is not fair to prevent these people from visiting the Kaʿba." When he returned to his people, he said, 'I saw the Budn garlanded (with colored knotted ropes) and marked (with stabs on their backs). I do not think it is advisable to prevent them from visiting the Kaʿba." Another person called Mikraz bin Hafs got up and sought their permission to go to Muhammad, and they allowed him, too. When he approached the Muslims, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Here is Mikraz and he is a vicious man." Mikraz started talking to the Prophet and as he was talking, Suhail bin ʿAmr came. When Suhail bin ʿAmr came, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Now the matter has become easy." Suhail said to the Prophet "Please conclude a peace treaty with us." So, the Prophet ﷺ called the clerk and said to him, "Write: By the Name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful." Suhail said, "As for 'Beneficent,' by Allah, I do not know what it means. So write: By Your Name O Allah, as you used to write previously." The Muslims said, "By Allah, we will not write except: By the Name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Write: By Your Name O Allah." Then he dictated, "This is the peace treaty which Muhammad, Messenger of Allah ﷺ has concluded." Suhail said, "By Allah, if we knew that you are Messenger of Allah ﷺ we would not prevent you from visiting the Kaʿba, and would not fight with you. So, write: "Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "By Allah! I am Apostle of Allah even if you people do not believe me. Write: Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah." (Az-Zuhri said, "The Prophet ﷺ accepted all those things, as he had already said that he would accept everything they would demand if it respects the ordinance of Allah, (i.e. by letting him and his companions perform ʿUmra.)" The Prophet ﷺ said to Suhail, "On the condition that you allow us to visit the House (i.e. Kaʿba) so that we may perform Tawaf around it." Suhail said, "By Allah, we will not (allow you this year) so as not to give chance to the 'Arabs to say that we have yielded to you, but we will allow you next year." So, the Prophet ﷺ got that written. Then Suhail said, "We also stipulate that you should return to us whoever comes to you from us, even if he embraced your religion." The Muslims said, "Glorified be Allah! How will such a person be returned to the pagans after he has become a Muslim? While they were in this state Abu- Jandal bin Suhail bin ʿAmr came from the valley of Mecca staggering with his fetters and fell down amongst the Muslims. Suhail said, "O Muhammad! This is the very first term with which we make peace with you, i.e. you shall return Abu Jandal to me." The Prophet ﷺ said, "The peace treaty has not been written yet." Suhail said, "I will never allow you to keep him." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, do." He said, "I won't do.: Mikraz said, "We allow you (to keep him)." Abu Jandal said, "O Muslims! Will I be returned to the pagans though I have come as a Muslim? Don't you see how much I have suffered?" (continued...) (continuing... 1): -3.891:... ... Abu Jandal had been tortured severely for the Cause of Allah. ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab said, "I went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'Aren't you truly the Messenger of Allah?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Yes, indeed.' I said, 'Isn't our Cause just and the cause of the enemy unjust?' He said, 'Yes.' I said, 'Then why should we be humble in our religion?' He said, 'I am Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I do not disobey Him, and He will make me victorious.' I said, 'Didn't you tell us that we would go to the Kaʿba and perform Tawaf around it?' He said, 'Yes, but did I tell you that we would visit the Kaʿba this year?' I said, 'No.' He said, 'So you will visit it and perform Tawaf around it?' " ʿUmar further said, "I went to Abu Bakr and said, 'O Abu Bakr! Isn't he truly Allah's Prophet?' He replied, 'Yes.' I said, 'Then why should we be humble in our religion?' He said, 'Indeed, he is Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he does not disobey his Lord, and He will make him victorious. Adhere to him as, by Allah, he is on the right.' I said, 'Was he not telling us that we would go to the Kaʿba and perform Tawaf around it?' He said, 'Yes, but did he tell you that you would go to the Kaʿba this year?' I said, 'No.' He said, "You will go to Kaʿba and perform Tawaf around it." (Az-Zuhri said, " ʿUmar said, 'I performed many good deeds as expiation for the improper questions I asked them.' ") When the writing of the peace treaty was concluded, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his companions, "Get up and' slaughter your sacrifices and get your head shaved." By Allah none of them got up, and the Prophet repeated his order thrice. When none of them got up, he left them and went to Um Salama and told her of the people's attitudes towards him. Um Salama said, "O the Prophet ﷺ of Allah! Do you want your order to be carried out? Go out and don't say a word to anybody till you have slaughtered your sacrifice and call your barber to shave your head." So, the Prophet ﷺ went out and did not talk to anyone of them till he did that, i.e. slaughtered the sacrifice and called his barber who shaved his head. Seeing that, the companions of the Prophet ﷺ got up, slaughtered their sacrifices, and started shaving the heads of one another, and there was so much rush that there was a danger of killing each other. Then some believing women came (to the Prophet ﷺ ); and Allah revealed the following Divine Verses:-- "O you who believe, when the believing women come to you as emigrants examine them . . ." (60.10) ʿUmar then divorced two wives of his who were infidels. Later on Muawiya bin Abu Sufyan married one of them, and Safwan bin Umaiya married the other. When the Prophet ﷺ returned to Medina, Abu Basir, a new Muslim convert from Quraish came to him. The Infidels sent in his pursuit two men who said (to the Prophet ﷺ ), "Abide by the promise you gave us." So, the Prophet ﷺ handed him over to them. They took him out (of the City) till they reached Dhul-Hulaifa where they dismounted to eat some dates they had with them. Abu Basir said to one of them, "By Allah, O so-and-so, I see you have a fine sword." The other drew it out (of the scabbard) and said, "By Allah, it is very fine and I have tried it many times." Abu Basir said, "Let me have a look at it." When the other gave it to him, he hit him with it till he died, and his companion ran away till he came to Medina and entered the Mosque running. When Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him he said, "This man appears to have been frightened." When he reached the Prophet ﷺ he said, "My companion has been murdered and I would have been murdered too." Abu Basir came and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, by Allah, Allah has made you fulfill your obligations by your returning me to them (i.e. the Infidels), but Allah has saved me from them." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Woe to his mother! what excellent war kindler he would be, should he only have supporters." When Abu Basir heard that he understood that the Prophet ﷺ would return him to them again, so he set off till he reached the seashore. Abu Jandal bin Suhail got himself released from them (i.e. infidels) and joined Abu Basir. So, whenever a man from Quraish embraced Islam he would follow Abu Basir till they formed a strong group. By Allah, whenever they heard about a caravan of Quraish heading towards Sham, they stopped it and attacked and killed them (i.e. infidels) and took their properties. The people of Quraish sent a message to the Prophet ﷺ requesting him for the Sake of Allah and Kith and kin to send for (i.e. Abu Basir and his companions) promising that whoever (amongst them) came to the Prophet ﷺ would be secure. So the Prophet ﷺ sent for them (i.e. Abu Basir's companions) and Allah I revealed the following Divine Verses: "And it is He Who Has withheld their hands from you and your hands From them in the midst of Mecca, After He made you the victorious over them. ... the unbelievers had pride and haughtiness, in their hearts ... the pride and haughtiness of the time of ignorance." (48.24-26) And their pride and haughtiness was that they did not confess (write in the treaty) that he (i.e. Muhammad) was the Prophet of Allah and refused to write: "In the Name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the Most Merciful," and they (the mushriks) prevented them (the Muslims) from visiting the House (the Kaʿbah).

مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ قَلَّدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَشْعَرَ ثُمَّ أَحْرَمَ بِالْعُمْرَةِ وَبَعَثَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ عَيْنًا لَهُ رَجُلًا مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ يَجِيئُهُ بِخَبَرِ قُرَيْشٍ وَسَارَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِغَدِيرِ الْأَشْطَاطِ قَرِيبًا مِنْ عُسْفَانَ أَتَاهُ عَيْنُهُ الْخُزَاعِيُّ فَقَالَ إِنِّي تَرَكْتُ كَعْبَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ وَعَامِرَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ قَدْ جَمَعُوا لَكَ الْأَحَابِيشَ وَجَمَعُوا لَكَ جُمُوعًا كَثِيرَةً وَهُمْ مُقَاتِلُوكَ وَصَادُّوكَ عَنِ الْبَيْتِ الْحَرَامِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَشِيرُوا عَلَيَّ أَتَرَوْنَ أَنْ نَمِيلَ إِلَى ذَرَارِيِّ هَؤُلَاءِ الَّذِينَ أَعَانُوهُمْ فَنُصِيبَهُمْ فَإِنْ قَعَدُوا قَعَدُوا مَوْتُورِينَ مَحْزُونِينَ وَإِنْ نَجَوْا يَكُونُوا عُنُقًا قَطَعَهَا اللَّهُ أَمْ تَرَوْنَ أَنْ نَؤُمَّ الْبَيْتَ فَمَنْ صَدَّنَا عَنْهُ قَاتَلْنَاهُ؟ » فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا جِئْنَا مُعْتَمِرِينَ وَلَمْ نَجِئْ لِقِتَالِ أَحَدٍ وَلَكِنْ مَنْ حَالَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْبَيْتِ قَاتَلْنَاهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «فَرُوحُوا إِذَا» قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ فِي حَدِيثِهِ وَكَانَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَكْثَرَ مُشَاوَرَةً لِأَصْحَابِهِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ فِي حَدِيثِهِ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ وَمَرْوَانَ فِي حَدِيثِهِمَا فَرَاحُوا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِبَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «إِنَّ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ بِالْغَمِيمِ فِي خَيْلٍ لِقُرَيْشٍ طَلِيعَةً فَخُذُوا ذَاتَ الْيَمِينِ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا شَعَرَ بِهِمْ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ حَتَّى إِذَا هُوَ بِقَتَرَةِ الْجَيْشِ فَأَقْبَلَ يَرْكُضُ نَذِيرًا لِقُرَيْشٍ وَسَارَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِالثَّنِيَّةِ الَّتِي يَهْبِطُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْهَا فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَيْهَا بَرَكَتْ رَاحِلَتُهُ» فَقَالَ النَّاسُ حَلَّ حَلَّ فَأَلَحَّتْ فَقَالُوا خَلَأَتِ الْقَصْوَاءُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا خَلَأَتِ الْقَصْوَاءُ وَمَا ذَلِكَ لَهَا بِخُلُقٍ وَلَكِنْ حَبَسَهَا حَابِسُ الْفِيلِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا يَسْأَلُونِي خُطَّةً يُعَظِّمُونَ فِيهَا حُرُمَاتِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا ثُمَّ زَجَرَهَا فَوَثَبَتْ بِهِ» قَالَ فَعَدَلَ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّى نَزَلَ بِأَقْصَى الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ عَلَى ثَمَدٍ قَلِيلِ الْمَاءِ إِنَّمَا يَتَبَرَّضُهُ النَّاسُ تَبَرُّضًا فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ بِالنَّاسِ أَنْ نَزَحُوهُ فَشُكِيَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْعَطَشُ فَانْتَزَعَ سَهْمًا مِنْ كِنَانَتِهِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَجْعَلُوهُ فِيهِ قَالَ فَمَا زَالَ يَجِيشُ لَهُمْ بِالرِّيِّ حَتَّى صَدَرُوا عَنْهُ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ جَاءَهُ بُدَيْلُ بْنُ وَرْقَاءَ الْخُزَاعِيُّ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ وَكَانَتْ عَيْبَةَ نُصْحِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَهْلِ تِهَامَةَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي تَرَكْتُ كَعْبَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ وَعَامِرَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ نَزَلُوا أَعْدَادَ مِيَاهِ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ مَعَهُمُ الْعُوذُ الْمَطَافِيلُ وَهُمْ مُقَاتِلُوكَ وَصَادُّوكَ عَنِ الْبَيْتِ الْحَرَامِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّا لَمْ نَجِئْ لِقِتَالِ أَحَدٍ وَلَكِنَّا جِئْنَا مُعْتَمِرِينَ فَإِنَّ قُرَيْشًا قَدْ نَهِكَتْهُمُ الْحَرْبُ وَأَضَرَّتْ بِهِمْ فَإِنْ شَاءُوا مَادَدْتُهُمْ مُدَّةً وَيَخْلُوا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ النَّاسِ فَإِنْ ظَهَرْنَا وَشَاءُوا أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا فِيمَا دَخَلَ فِيهِ النَّاسُ فَعَلُوا وَقَدْ جَمُّوا وَإِنْ هُمْ أَبَوْا فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأُقَاتِلَنَّهُمْ عَلَى أَمْرِي هَذَا حَتَّى تَنْفَرِدَ سَالِفَتِي أَوْ لَيُبْدِيَنَّ اللَّهُ أَمْرَهُ» قَالَ بُدَيْلُ بْنُ وَرْقَاءَ سَأُبَلِّغُهُمْ مَا تَقُولُ فَانْطَلَقَ حَتَّى أَتَى قُرَيْشًا فَقَالَ إِنَّا قَدْ جِئْنَاكُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ وَسَمِعْنَاهُ يَقُولُ قَوْلًا فَإِنْ شِئْتُمْ أَنْ نَعْرِضَهُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَعَلْنَا فَقَالَ سُفَهَاؤُهُمْ لَا حَاجَةَ لَنَا فِي أَنْ تُخْبِرُونَا عَنْهُ بِشَيْءٍ وَقَالَ ذُو الرَّأْيِ هَاتِ مَا سَمِعْتَهُ يَقُولُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَأَخْبَرْتُهُمْ بِمَا قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَامَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ فَقَالَ يَا قَوْمُ أَلَسْتُمْ بِالْوَلَدِ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ أَلَسْتُ بِالْوَالِدِ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ فَهَلْ تَتَّهِمُونِي قَالُوا لَا قَالَ أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي اسْتَنْفَرْتُ أَهْلَ عُكَاظٍ فَلَمَّا بَلَّحُوا عَلَيَّ جِئْتُكُمْ بِأَهْلِي وَوَلَدِي وَمَنْ أَطَاعَنِي قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ فَإِنَّ هَذَا امْرُؤٌ عَرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ خُطَّةَ رُشْدٍ فَاقْبَلُوهَا وَدَعُونِي آتِهِ قَالُوا ائْتِهِ فَأَتَاهُ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يُكَلِّمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَحْوًا مِنْ قَوْلِهِ لِبُدَيْلِ بْنِ وَرْقَاءَ فَقَالَ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ ذَلِكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنِ اسْتَأْصَلْتَ قَوْمَكَ هَلْ سَمِعْتَ أَحَدًا مِنَ الْعَرَبِ اجْتَاحَ أَصْلَهُ قَبْلَكَ وَإِنْ تَكُنِ الْأُخْرَى فَوَاللَّهِ إِنِّي أَرَى وُجُوهًا وَأَرَى أَشْوَابًا مِنَ النَّاسِ خُلَقَاءَ أَنْ يَفِرُّوا وَيَدَعُوكَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ امْصُصْ بِبَظْرِ اللَّاتِ أَنَحْنُ نَفِرُّ وَنَدَعُهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ مَنْ هَذَا قَالُوا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ فَقَالَ أَمَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْلَا يَدٌ كَانَتْ لَكَ عِنْدِي لَمْ أَجْزِكَ بِهَا لَأَجَبْتُكَ وَجَعَلَ يُكَلِّمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَكُلَّمَا كَلَّمَهُ أَخَذَ بِلِحْيَتِهِ وَالْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ الثَّقَفِيُّ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رَأْسِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعَلَيْهِ ال سَّيْفُ وَالْمِغْفَرُ فَكُلَّمَا أَهْوَى عُرْوَةُ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى لِحْيَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ضَرَبَ يَدَهُ بِنَعْلِ السَّيْفِ وَقَالَ أَخِّرْ يَدَكَ عَنْ لِحْيَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرَفَعَ عُرْوَةُ رَأْسَهُ وَقَالَ مَنْ هَذَا؟ فَقَالُوا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ الثَّقَفِيُّ فَقَالَ أَيْ غُدَرُ أَوَلَسْتُ أَسْعَى فِي غَدْرَتِكَ وَكَانَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ صَحِبَ قَوْمًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَقَتَلَهُمْ وَأَخَذَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَأَسْلَمَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَمَّا الْإِسْلَامُ فَأَقْبَلَ وَأَمَّا الْمَالُ فَلَسْتُ مِنْهُ فِي شَيْءٍ» قَالَ ثُمَّ إِنَّ عُرْوَةَ جَعَلَ يَرْمُقُ صَحَابَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِعَيْنِهِ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا يَتَنَخَّمُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ نُخَامَةً إِلَّا وَقَعَتْ فِي كَفِّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ فَدَلَكَ بِهَا وَجْهَهُ وَجِلْدَهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرَهُمُ انْقَادُوا لِأَمْرِهِ وَإِذَا تَوَضَّأَ كَادُوا يَقْتَتِلُونَ عَلَى وَضُوئِهِ وَإِذَا تَكَلَّمَ خَفَضُوا أَصْوَاتَهُمْ عِنْدَهُ وَمَا يُحِدُّونَ إِلَيْهِ النَّظَرَ تَعْظِيمًا لَهُ فَرَجَعَ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ أَيْ قَوْمُ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ وَفَدْتُ إِلَى الْمُلُوكِ وَوَفَدْتُ إِلَى كِسْرَى وَقَيْصَرَ وَالنَّجَاشِيِّ وَاللَّهِ مَا رَأَيْتُ مَلِكًا قَطُّ يُعَظِّمُهُ أَصْحَابُهُ مَا يُعَظِّمُ أَصْحَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ مُحَمَّدًا وَوَاللَّهِ إِنْ يَتَنَخَّمْ نُخَامَةً إِلَّا وَقَعَتْ فِي كَفِّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ فَدَلَكَ بِهَا وَجْهَهُ وَجِلْدَهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرَهُمُ ابْتَدَرُوا أَمْرَهُ وَإِذَا تَوَضَّأَ اقْتَتَلُوا عَلَى وَضُوئِهِ وَإِذْ تَكَلَّمَ خَفَضُوا أَصْوَاتَهُمْ عِنْدَهُ وَمَا يُحِدُّونَ إِلَيْهِ النَّظَرَ تَعْظِيمًا لَهُ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ عَرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ خُطَّةَ رُشْدٍ فَقَبَلَوهَا فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي كِنَانَةَ دَعُونِي آتِهِ فَلَمَّا أَشْرَفَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَذَا فُلَانٌ مِنْ قَوْمٍ يُعَظِّمُونَ الْبُدْنَ فَابْعَثُوهَا لَهُ» قَالَ فَبُعِثَتْ وَاسْتَقْبَلَهُ الْقَوْمُ يُلَبُّونَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِهَؤُلَاءِ أَنْ يُصَدُّوا عَنِ الْبَيْتِ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ الْبُدْنَ قَدْ قُلِّدَتْ وَأُشْعِرَتْ فَمَا أَرَى أَنْ يُصَدُّوا عَنِ الْبَيْتِ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهُ مِكْرَزٌ فَقَالَ دَعُونِي آتِهِ فَقَالُوا ائْتِهِ فَلَمَّا أَشْرَفَ عَلَيْهِمْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَذَا مِكْرَزٌ وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ فَاجِرٌ» فَجَعَلَ يُكَلِّمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يُكَلِّمُهُ إِذْ جَاءَهُ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَيُّوبُ السَّخْتِيَانِيُّ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ قَالَ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ سُهَيْلٌ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَذَا سُهَيْلٌ قَدْ سَهَّلَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ أَمْرَكُمْ» قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ وَمَرْوَانَ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ سُهَيْلٌ قَالَ هَاتِ اكْتُبْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ كِتَابًا فَدَعَا الْكَاتِبُ فَقَالَ «اكْتُبْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ» فَقَالَ سُهَيْلٌ أَمَّا الرَّحْمَنُ فَلَا أَدْرِي وَاللَّهِ مَا هُوَ وَلَكِنِ اكْتُبْ بِاسْمِكَ اللَّهُمَّ ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اكْتُبْ هَذَا مَا قَاضَى عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ» فَقَالَ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو لَوْ كُنَّا نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ مَا صَدَدْنَاكَ عَنِ الْبَيْتِ وَلَا قَاتَلْنَاكَ وَلَكِنِ اكْتُبْ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَإِنْ كَذَّبْتُمُونِي اكْتُبْ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ» قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ وَذَلِكَ لِقَوْلِهِ لَا يَسْأَلُونِي خُطَّةً يُعَظِّمُونَ فِيهَا حُرُمَاتِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا وَقَالَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ وَمَرْوَانَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «عَلَى أَنْ تُخَلُّوا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْبَيْتِ فَنَطُوفُ بِهِ» فَقَالَ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو إِنَّهُ لَا يَتَحَدَّثُ الْعَرَبُ أَنَّا أَخَذْنَا ضَغْطَةً وَلَكِنْ لَكَ مِنَ الْعَامِ الْمُقْبِلِ فَكَتَبَ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَلَى أَنَّهُ لَا يَأْتِيكَ مِنَّا رَجُلٌ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَلَى دِينِكَ أَوْ يُرِيدُ دِينَكَ إِلَّا رَدَدْتَهُ إِلَيْنَا فَقَالَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ يُرَدُّ إِلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَقَدْ جَاءَ مُسْلِمًا فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِذْ جَاءَ أَبُو جَنْدَلِ بْنُ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو يَرْسُفُ فِي قُيُودِهِ قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنْ أَسْفَلِ مَكَّةَ حَتَّى رَمَى بِنَفْسِهِ بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ نُقَاضِيكَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ تَرُدَّهُ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «إِنَّا لَمْ نُمْضِ الْكِتَابَ بَعْدُ» فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لَا أُصَالِحُكَ عَلَى شَيْءٍ أَبَدًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «فَأَجِزْهُ لِي» فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا بِمُجِيزِهِ لَكَ قَالَ فَافْعَلْ قَالَ مَا أَنَا بِفَاعِلٍ قَالَ مِكْرَزٌ بَلْ قَدْ أَجَزْنَاهُ لَكَ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَنْدَلِ بْنُ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو يَا مَعْشَرُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أُرَدُّ إِلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَقَدْ جِئْتُ مُسْلِمًا أَلَا تَرَوْنَ إِلَى مَا قَدْ لَقِيتُ وَكَانَ قَدْ عُذِّبَ عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا فِي اللَّهِ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَاللَّهِ مَا شَكَكْتُ مُنْذُ أَسْلَمْتُ إِلَّا يَوْمَئِذٍ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ أَلَسْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَقًّا قَالَ «بَلَى» قُلْتُ أَلَسْنَا عَلَى الْحَقِّ وَعَدُوُّنَا عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ؟ قَالَ «بَلَى» قُلْتُ فَلِمَ نُعْطِي الدَّنِيَّةَ فِي دِينِنَا إِذَا قَالَ «إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَلَسْتُ أَعْصِي رَبِّي وَهُوَ نَاصِرِيٌّ» قُلْتُ أَوَ لَيْسَ كُنْتَ تُحَدِّثُنَا أَنَّا سَنَأْتِي الْبَيْتَ فَنَطُوفُ بِهِ؟ قَالَ «بَلَى» فَخَبَّرْتُكَ أَنَّكَ تَأْتِيَهِ الْعَامَ قَالَ لَا قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ تَأْتِيَهِ فَتَطُوفُ بِهِ قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَلَيْسَ هَذَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ حَقًّا قَالَ بَلَى قُلْتُ أَوَ لَسْنَا عَلَى الْحَقِّ وَعَدُوُّنَا عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ قَالَ بَلَى قُلْتُ فَلِمَ نُعْطِي الدَّنِيَّةَ فِي دِينِنَا إِذَا قَالَ أَيُّهَا الرَّجُلُ إِنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَلَيْسَ يَعْصِي

يُحْدِثَ اللَّهُ أَمْرًا فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَقُمْ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَقَالَ «مَا لَقِيتُ مِنَ النَّاسِ» قَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ أَوَ تُحِبُّ ذَاكَ اخْرُجْ وَلَا تُكَلِّمَنَّ أَحَدًا مِنْهُمْ كَلِمَةً حَتَّى تَنْحَرَ بُدْنَكَ وَتَدْعُو حَالِقَكَ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَخَرَجَ وَلَمْ يُكَلِّمْ أَحَدًا مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى نَحَرَ بُدْنَهُ ثُمَّ دَعَا حَالِقَهُ فَحَلَقَهُ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ النَّاسُ جَعَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ يُحَلِّقُ بَعْضًا حَتَّى كَادَ بَعْضُهُمْ يَقْتُلُ بَعْضًا قَالَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ نِسْوَةٌ مُؤْمِنَاتٌ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى {يَا

طَلَبِهِ رَجُلَيْنِ وَقَالُوا الْعَهْدُ الَّذِي جَعَلْتَ لَنَا فَدَفَعَهُ إِلَى الرَّجُلَيْنِ فَخَرَجَا حَتَّى بَلَغَا بِهِ ذَا الْحُلَيْفَةِ فَنَزَلُوا يَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ تَمْرٍ لَهُمْ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ لِأَحَدِ الرَّجُلَيْنِ وَاللَّهِ لَأَرَى سَيْفَكَ هَذَا يَا فُلَانُ جَيِّدًا فَقَالَ أَجَلْ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَجَيِّدٌ لَقَدْ جَرَّبْتُ بِهِ ثُمَّ جَرَّبْتُ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ أَرِنِي

انْتَهَى إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَتَلَ وَاللَّهِ صَاحِبِي وَإِنِّي لَمَقْتُولٌ فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ قَدْ وَاللَّهِ أَوْفَى اللَّهُ ذِمَّتَكَ قَدْ رَدَدْتَنِي إِلَيْهِمْ

When the Prophet ﷺ intended to perform ʿUmra in the month of Dhul-Qada, the people of Mecca did not let him enter Mecca till he settled the matter with them by promising to stay in it for three days only. When the document of treaty was written, the following was mentioned: 'These are the terms on which Muhammad, Messenger of Allah ﷺ agreed (to make peace).' They said, "We will not agree to this, for if we believed that you are Messenger of Allah ﷺ we would not prevent you, but you are Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "I am Messenger of Allah ﷺ and also Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah." Then he said to ʿAli, "Rub off (the words) 'Messenger of Allah ﷺ' ", but ʿAli said, "No, by Allah, I will never rub off your name." So, Messenger of Allah ﷺ took the document and wrote, 'This is what Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah has agreed upon: No arms will be brought into Mecca except in their cases, and nobody from the people of Mecca will be allowed to go with him (i.e. the Prophet ﷺ ) even if he wished to follow him and he (the Prophet ﷺ ) will not prevent any of his companions from staying in Mecca if the latter wants to stay.' When the Prophet ﷺ entered Mecca and the time limit passed, the Meccans went to ʿAli and said, "Tell your Friend (i.e. the Prophet ﷺ ) to go out, as the period (agreed to) has passed." So, the Prophet ﷺ went out of Mecca. The daughter of Hamza ran after them (i.e. the Prophet ﷺ and his companions), calling, "O Uncle! O Uncle!" ʿAli received her and led her by the hand and said to Fatima, "Take your uncle's daughter." Zaid and Jaʿfar quarreled about her. ʿAli said, "I have more right to her as she is my uncle's daughter." Jaʿfar said, "She is my uncle's daughter, and her aunt is my wife." Zaid said, "She is my brother's daughter." The Prophet ﷺ judged that she should be given to her aunt, and said that the aunt was like the mother. He then said to 'All, "You are from me and I am from you", and said to Jaʿfar, "You resemble me both in character and appearance", and said to Zaid, "You are our brother (in faith) and our freed slave." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2699)

We were one thousand and four hundred on the Day of Hudaibiya. We swore fealty to hiin (the Holy Prophet) and 'Umar was holding the latter's hand (when he was sitting) under the tree (called) Samura (to administer the oath to the Companions). The narrator added: We took oath to the effect that we would not flee (from the battlefield if there was an encounter with the Meccans), but we did not take oath to fight to death. (Using translation from Muslim 1856a)

[Machine] "Then the people pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the time of Hudaybiyah while he was sitting under the tree, and I was holding a branch from its branches away from his face. We did not pledge allegiance to him upon death, but we pledged to not flee. They were one thousand four hundred (people) that day."

The Quraysh sent me to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and when I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Islam was cast into my heart, so I said: Messenger of Allah, I swear by Allah, I shall never return to them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied: I do not break a covenant or imprison messengers, but return, and if you feel the same as you do just now, come back. So I went away, and then came to the Prophet ﷺ and accepted Islam. The narrator Bukair said: He informed me that Abu Rafi' was a Copt. Abu Dawud said: This was valid in those days, but today it is not valid. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2758)
