Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 10931

عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا - قَالَ : قَدِمَ حُيَيُّ بْنُ أَخْطَبَ وَكَعْبُ بْنُ الْأَشْرَفِ مَكَّةَ ، فَحَالَفُوهُمْ عَلَى قِتَالِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالُوا لَهُمْ : أَنْتُمْ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ الْقَدِيمِ وَالْكِتَابِ الْأَوَّلِ فَأَخْبِرُونَا عَنَّا وَعَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ ؟ فَقَالُوا : وَمَا أَنْتُمْ وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ ؟ قَالُوا : نَحْنُ نَنْحَرُ الْكَوْمَاءَ ، وَنَسْقِي اللَّبَنَ عَلَى الْمَاءِ ، وَنَفُكُّ الْعُنَاةَ ، وَنَسْقِي الْحَجِيجَ ، وَنَصِلُ الْأَرْحَامَ ، قَالُوا : فَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ ؟ قَالُوا : صُنْبُورٌ قَطَّعَ أَرْحَامَنَا ، وَاتَّبَعَهُ سُرَّاقُ الْحَجِيجِ بَنُو غِفَارَ ، قَالُوا : بَلْ أَنْتُمْ خَيْرٌ مِنْهُ وَأَهْدَى سَبِيلًا . فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - : ( أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا نَصِيبًا مِنَ الْكِتَابِ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْجِبْتِ وَالطَّاغُوتِ ) الْآيَةَ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ يُونُسُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْجَمَّالُ وَلَمْ أَعْرِفْهُ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated: Huyayy bin Akhtab and Ka'b bin al-Ashraf came to Quraysh in Makkah and made a pact of alliance with them to fight against the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The people of Makkah said to them: "You possess ancient knowledge and you also have the earlier Book, so tell us about ourselves and about Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)." They asked: "What are you, and what is Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)?" The people of Makkah said: "We slaughter she-camels with high humps, we give people milk mixed with water to drink, we free captives, we give water to the pilgrims, and we maintain ties of kinship." They asked: "What does Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) do?" Quraysh of Makkah said: "He has no offspring left; he has violated the rights of kinship, and the thieves of the pilgrims, Banu Ghifar, have followed him." So Huyayy bin Akhtab and Ka'b bin al-Ashraf said: "You are better than Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and upon a more rightly guided path." So Allah Almighty revealed this verse about it: "Have you not seen those who were given a share of the Book, that they believe in idols and Taghut (that is, Satan)?"
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Yunus bin Sulayman al-Jammal, whom I do not know, and the remaining narrators of this report are the narrators of the Sahih.
