the Prophet entered Makkah during the Umratul-Qada, and Abdullah bin Rawahah was walking in front of him and saying: Get out of his way, you unbelievers, make way. Today we will fight about its revelation With blows that will remove beads from shoulders And make friend unmindful of friends. Umar said to him: "O Ibn Rawahah! In front of the Messenger of Allah and in the Sancturary of Allah, the Might and Sublime, you recite poetry?" The Prophet said: "Let him do so, for what he is saying is more effective than shooting arrows at them."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ فِي عُمْرَةِ الْقَضَاءِ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ يَمْشِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ خَلُّوا بَنِي الْكُفَّارِ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ الْيَوْمَ نَضْرِبْكُمْ عَلَى تَنْزِيلِهِ ضَرْبًا يُزِيلُ الْهَامَ عَنْ مَقِيلِهِ وَيُذْهِلُ الْخَلِيلَ عَنْ خَلِيلِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ يَا ابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَفِي حَرَمِ اللَّهِ ﷻ تَقُولُ الشِّعْرَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَلِّ عَنْهُ فَلَهُوَ أَسْرَعُ فِيهِمْ مِنْ نَضْحِ النَّبْلِ  

"The Prophet entered Makkah during Umratul-Qada' and Ibn Rawahah went before him, saying: Get out of his way, you unbelievers, make way. Today we will fight about its revelation With blows that will remove heads from shoulders And make friend unmindful of friend. Umar said to him: "O Ibn Rawahah! In the Sanctuary of Allah and in front of the Messenger of Allah you recite poetry?" The Prophet said: "Let him do that, for by the one in whose hand is my soul, his words are harder for them than being shot with arrows."  

دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَكَّةَ فِي عُمْرَةِ الْقَضَاءِ وَابْنُ رَوَاحَةَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ يَقُولُ خَلُّوا بَنِي الْكُفَّارِ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ الْيَوْمَ نَضْرِبْكُمْ عَلَى تَأْوِيلِهِ ضَرْبًا يُزِيلُ الْهَامَ عَنْ مَقِيلِهِ وَيُذْهِلُ الْخَلِيلَ عَنْ خَلِيلِهِ قَالَ عُمَرُ يَا ابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ فِي حَرَمِ اللَّهِ وَبَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَقُولُ هَذَا الشِّعْرَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَلِّ عَنْهُ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَكَلاَمُهُ أَشَدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ وَقْعِ النَّبْلِ  

that the Prophet ﷺ entered Makkah during 'Umratil-Qada and 'Abdullah bin Rawahah was walking in front of him reciting verses of poetry. "O tribes of disbelievers get out of his way - today we will strike you about its revelation; a strike that removes the heads from the shoulders - and makes the friend not concerned about his friend." 'Umar said to him: "O Ibn Rawahah! Before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and in the sanctuary of Allah you utter poetry?" the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Leave him O 'Umar! For it is quicker upon them than the raining arrow."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ فِي عُمْرَةِ الْقَضَاءِ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ يَمْشِي وَهُوَ يَقُولُ خَلُّوا بَنِي الْكُفَّارِ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ الْيَوْمَ نَضْرِبْكُمْ عَلَى تَنْزِيلِهِ ضَرْبًا يُزِيلُ الْهَامَ عَنْ مَقِيلِهِ وَيُذْهِلُ الْخَلِيلَ عَنْ خَلِيلِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ يَا ابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَفِي حَرَمِ اللَّهِ تَقُولُ الشِّعْرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَلِّ عَنْهُ يَا عُمَرُ فَلَهِيَ أَسْرَعُ فِيهِمْ مِنْ نَضْحِ النَّبْلِ

The Prophet said: "Let him do so, for what he is saying is more effective than shooting arrows at them." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2873)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ فِي عُمْرَةِ الْقَضَاءِ وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ يَمْشِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] خَلُّوا بَنِي الْكُفَّارِ عَنْ سَبِيلِهْ الْيَوْمَ نَضْرِبُكُمْ عَلَى تَنْزِيلِهْ ضَرْبًا يُزِيلُ الْهَامَ عَنْ مَقِيلِهْ وَيُذْهِلُ الْخَلِيلَ عَنْ خَلِيلِهْ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ يَا ابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ أبَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَفِي حَرَمِ اللهِ تَقُولُ الشِّعْرَ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «خَلِّ عَنْهُ فَلَهُوَ أَسْرَعُ فِيهِمْ مِنْ نَضْحِ النَّبْلِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered Mecca, and Ibn Rawaha was holding his spear and saying, "The sea, Al-Rajz. Let the disbelievers of Bani Kaffarah be prevented from his path today. We will strike you with a blow that will remove the barrier from its path and astonish the true friend. O Lord, I believe in what he says."  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَكَّةَ وَابْنُ رَوَاحَةَ آخِذٌ بِغَرْزِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] خَلُّوا بَنِي الْكُفَّارِ عَنْ سَبِيلِهْ الْيَوْمَ نَضْرِبْكُمْ عَلَى تَنْزِيلِهْ ضَرْبًا يُزِيلُ الْهَامَ عَنْ مَقِيلِهْ وَيُذْهِلُ الْخَلِيلَ عَنْ خَلِيلِهْ يَا رَبِّ إِنِّي مُؤْمِنٌ بِقِيلِهْ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered Mecca, and its people stood in groups, looking at the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions. Ibn Rawaha walked in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "Clear the way for the disbelievers, for today we will strike you with a blow that will remove the distress from its place and astonish the beloved from his beloved. O Lord, I believe in what is said." Omar said to Ibn Rawaha, "O Ibn Rawaha, are you reciting poetry in the sanctuary of Allah and in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What is the matter, Omar? By Him in Whose Hand is my soul, his words have affected them even more than the thunderbolt." Al-Shafi'i may Allah have mercy on him said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came across a group from the Banu Tamim with Had and he mentioned the meaning of the story..."  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَكَّةَ فَقَامَ أَهْلُهَا سِمَاطَيْنِ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ وَابْنُ رَوَاحَةَ يَمْشِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ ابْنُ رَوَاحَةَ [البحر الرجز] خَلُّوا بَنِي الْكُفَّارِ عَنْ سَبِيلِهْ فَالْيَوْمَ نَضْرِبْكُمْ عَلَى تَنْزِيلِهْ ضَرْبًا يُزِيلُ الْهَامَ عَنْ مَقِيلِهْ وَيُذْهِلُ الْخَلِيلَ عَنْ خَلِيلِهْ يَا رَبِّ إِنِّي مُؤْمِنٌ بِقِيلِهْ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ يَا ابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ أَفِي حَرَمِ اللهِ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تَقُولُ الشِّعْرَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَهْ يَا عُمَرُ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَكَلَامُهُ هَذَا أَشَدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ وَقْعِ النَّبْلِ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَأَدْرَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَكْبًا مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ وَمَعَهُمْ حَادٍ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَى الْقِصَّةِ الَّتِي
