عِرَاكُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عَنْ حَكِيمِ بْنِ حِزَامٍ
[Machine] Muhammad ﷺ was the most beloved person to me among the people in the pre-Islamic era. When he was informed (of his prophethood) and he went to Madinah, a wise man witnessed the season while he was still a disbeliever. He found a robe of a person named Yazan being sold, so he bought it to give it as a gift to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He presented it to him upon his arrival in Madinah, and he wanted to take its cost as a gift, but the Prophet ﷺ refused and said, "We do not accept anything from pagans, but if you wish, I will buy it from you at its price." So I gave it to him when he refused to take the gift, and I saw him wearing it on the pulpit. I did not see anything better than him that day. Then he gave it to Usamah ibn Zayd, and the wise man saw it on Usama, so he said, "O Usamah, are you wearing Yazan's robe?" Usamah replied, "Yes, by Allah, I am better than Yazan, and my father is better than his father." The wise man said, "I went to the people of Makkah and surprised them with what Usamah said."
كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ أَحَبَّ رَجُلٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلَيَّ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَلَمَّا نُبِّئَ ﷺ وَخَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ شَهِدَ حَكِيمٌ الْمَوْسِمَ وَهُوَ كَافِرٌ فَوَجَدَ حُلَّةٌ لِذِي يَزَنَ تُبَاعُ فَاشْتَرَاهَا لِيُهْدِيَهَا لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَدِمَ بِهَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَدِينَةَ فَأَرَادَهُ عَلَى قَبْضِهَا هَدِيَّةً فَأَبَى فَقَالَ «إِنَّا لَا نَقْبَلُ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ شَيْئًا وَلَكِنْ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَخَذْتُهَا مِنْكَ بِالثَّمَنِ» فَأَعْطَيْتُهُ إِيَّاهَا حِينَ أَبَى عَلَيَّ الْهَدِيَّةَ فَلَبِسَهَا فَرَأَيْتُهَا عَلَيْهِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَلَمْ أَرَ شَيْئًا أَحْسَنَ مِنْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثُمَّ أَعْطَاهَا أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ فَرَآهَا حَكِيمٌ عَلَى أُسَامَةَ فَقَالَ «يَا أُسَامَةُ أَنْتَ تَلْبَسُ حُلَّةَ ذِي يَزَنَ؟» فَقَالَ نَعَمْ وَاللهِ لَأَنَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ ذِي يَزَنَ وَلَأَبِي خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ حَكِيمٌ «فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ أُعَجِّبُهُمْ بِقَوْلِ أُسَامَةَ»
