[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ carrying the head of Al-Aswad Al-Ansi, the liar, from his father.  

عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِرَأْسِ الْأَسْوَدِ الْعَنْسِيِّ الْكَذَّابِ  

[Machine] "O Caliph, Messenger of Allah, indeed they are doing this to us." He said, "Are you seeking help from the Persians and the Byzantines? Don't bring me a head, for only the book and the news are sufficient for me."  

يَا خَلِيفَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّهُمْ يَفْعَلُونَ ذَلِكَ بِنَا قَالَ «أَفَاسْتِنَانًا بِفَارِسَ وَالرُّومِ؟ لَا يُحْمَلَنَّ إِلَيَّ رَأْسٌ فَإِنَّمَا يَكْفِينِي الْكِتَابُ والْخَبَرُ»
