عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ أَبِي السَّائِبِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُشَارِكُ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَبْلَ الْإِسْلَامِ فِي التِّجَارَةِ ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْفَتْحِ جَاءَهُ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَرْحَبًا بِأَخِي وَشَرِيكِي ، كَانَ لَا يُدَارِي وَلَا يُمَارِي ، يَا سَائِبُ ، قَدْ كُنْتَ تَعْمَلُ أَعْمَالًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا تُقْبَلُ مِنْكَ ، وَهِيَ الْيَوْمَ تُقْبَلُ مِنْكَ " . وَكَانَ ذَا سَلَفٍ وَصِلَةٍ .
قُلْتُ : رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ ، وَغَيْرُهُ بَعْضَهُ ، وَلَهُ طَرِيقٌ تَأْتِي فِي الْبِرِّ وَالصِّلَةِ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna al-Sa'ib bin Abi al-Sa'ib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that before Islam he was a partner of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in trade. On the day of the Conquest of Makkah he came into the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Welcome to my brother and (business) partner, who never deceived and never cheated." (Then, addressing him, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:) "O Sa'ib! In the Era of Ignorance you did many deeds that were not accepted from you; today (after accepting Islam) they will be accepted from you." The narrator states: He used to give loans and maintain family ties.
(Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Imam Abu Dawud and someone else recorded part of this narration, and it has another chain which will come in the chapter on righteousness and maintaining family ties.
Imam Ahmad and al-Tabarani (in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir) recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

وَعَنْ صَعْصَعَةَ بْنِ نَاجِيَةَ الْمُجَاشِعِيِّ ، وَهُوَ جَدُّ الْفَرَزْدَقِ بْنِ غَالِبِ بْنِ صَعْصَعَةَ ، قَالَ : قَدِمْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَعَرَضَ عَلَيَّ الْإِسْلَامَ ، فَأَسْلَمْتُ وَعَلَّمَنِي آيًا مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي عَمِلْتُ أَعْمَالًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ، فَهَلْ لِي فِيهَا مَنْ أَجْرٍ ؟ قَالَ : " وَمَا عَمِلْتَ ؟ " فَقُلْتُ : إِنِّي أَضْلَلْتُ لِي نَاقَتَيْنِ عَشْرَاوَيْنِ ، فَخَرَجْتُ أَتْبَعُهُمَا عَلَى جَمَلٍ لِي ، فَرُفِعَ لِي بَيْتَانِ فِي فَضَاءٍ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ ، فَقَصَدْتُ قَصْدَهُمَا ، فَوَجَدْتُ فِي أَحَدِهِمَا شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا ، فَقُلْتُ : هَلْ أَحْسَسْتَ نَاقَتَيْنِ عَشْرَاوَيْنِ ؟ قَالَ : مَا نَارَاهُمَا ، قُلْتُ : مِيسَمُ بَنِي دَارِمٍ . قَالَ : قَدْ أَصَبْنَا نَاقَتَيْكَ ، وَنَتَجْنَاهُمَا فَظَأَرْنَاهُمَا ، وَقَدْ نَعَّشَ اللَّهُ بِهِمَا أَهْلَ بَيْتٍ مِنْ قَوْمِكَ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ مِنْ مُضَرَ . قَالَ : فَبَيْنَا هُوَ يُخَاطِبُنِي إِذْ نَادَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ الْآخَرِ : وَلَدَتْ . قَالَ : وَمَا وَلَدَتْ ؟ إِنْ كَانَ غُلَامًا فَقَدْ شَرَكَنَا فِي قَوْمِنَا - وَقَالَ الْبَزَّارُ : فَقَدْ تَبَارَكَنَا فِي قَوْمِنَا - وَإِنْ كَانَتْ جَارِيَةً فَادْفِنَاهَا ، فَقَالَتْ : جَارِيَةٌ ؟ ، فَقُلْتُ : مَا هَذِهِ الْمَوْءُودَةُ ؟ قَالَ : ابْنَةٌ لِي ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنِّي أَشْتَرِيهَا مِنْكَ . قَالَ : يَا أَخَا بَنِي تَمِيمٍ ، أَتَقُولُ : أَتَبِيعُ ابْنَتَكَ وَقَدْ أَخْبَرْتُكَ أَنِّي رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ مِنْ مُضَرَ ؟ فَقُلْتُ : إِنِّي لَا أَشْتَرِي مِنْكَ رَقَبَتَهَا ، إِنَّمَا أَشْتَرِي رُوحَهَا أَنْ لَا تَقْتُلَهَا . قَالَ : بِمَ تَشْتَرِيهَا ؟ قُلْتُ : بِنَاقَتَيَّ هَاتَيْنِ وَوَلَدَيْهِمَا . قَالَ : وَتَزِيدُنِي بَعِيرَكَ هَذَا ؟ قُلْتُ : نَعَمْ ، عَلَى أَنْ تُرْسِلَ مَعِي رَسُولًا ، فَإِذَا بَلَغْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي رَدَدْتُ إِلَيْكَ الْبَعِيرَ ، فَفَعَلَ ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغْتُ أَهْلِي رَدَدْتُ إِلَيْهِ الْبَعِيرَ ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي بَعْضِ اللَّيْلِ فَكَّرْتُ فِي نَفْسِي أَنَّ هَذِهِ مَكْرُمَةٌ مَا سَبَقَنِي إِلَيْهَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ ، وَظَهَرَ الْإِسْلَامُ وَقَدْ أَحْيَيْتُ ثَلَاثَمِائَةٍ وَسِتِّينَ مَوْءُودَةً ، أَشْتَرِي كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ بِنَاقَتَيْنِ عَشْرَاوَيْنِ وَجَمَلٍ ، فَهَلْ لِي فِي ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَجْرٍ ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَكَ أَجْرٌ إِذْ مَنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ بِالْإِسْلَامِ " . قَالَ عَبَّادٌ : وَمِصْدَاقُ قَوْلِ صَعْصَعَةَ قَوْلُ الْفَرَزْدَقِ :
وَجَدِّي الَّذِي مَنَعَ الْوَائِدَاتِ فَأَحْيَا الْوَئِيدَ فَلَمْ يُوأَدِ رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ وَالْبَزَّارُ ، وَفِيهِ الطُّفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو التَّمِيمِيُّ ، قَالَ الْبُخَارِيُّ : لَا يَصِحُّ حَدِيثُهُ . وَقَالَ الْعُقَيْلِيُّ : لَا يُتَابَعُ عَلَيْهِ .
Sayyiduna Sa'sa'ah bin Najiyah al-Mujashi'i (may Allah be pleased with him), who was the grandfather of al-Farazdaq bin Ghalib bin Sa'sa'ah (that is, the famous Arab poet al-Farazdaq), states: I came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He invited me to Islam and I accepted Islam, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught me some verses of the Qur'an. I said: "O Messenger of Allah! I did some good deeds in the Era of Ignorance; will I receive a reward for them?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What deed did you do?" I said: "Once two of my she-camels went missing, which were about to give birth. I set out on my camel to search for them. In an open space two dwellings appeared before me, and I headed towards them. In one of the two dwellings I found a very old man, and I asked: 'Do you know anything about two pregnant she-camels?' He asked: 'What is their mark?' I said: 'They are branded with the brand of Banu Darim.' He said: 'We found your two she-camels, and we delivered their young and had them nurse. Through them Allah Almighty has given relief to a household of your people, that is, of the Arabs of the tribe of Mudar.' While that man was still talking with me, a woman called out loudly from the other dwelling: 'The birth has taken place.' The man asked: 'What has been born? If it is a boy, he will be our partner among our people (Here Imam al-Bazzar reported these words: through him there will be blessing among our people), and if it is a girl, then bury her!' The woman replied: 'It is a girl.' I asked: 'Who is this that is to be buried alive? Who is she?' The man said: 'She is my daughter.' I said: 'I will buy her from you.' He said: 'O you of Banu Tamim! Are you saying that I should sell my daughter, when I have already told you that I am an Arab and belong to the tribe of Mudar?' I said: 'I am not buying her person from you; I am buying her life, so that you do not kill her.' He asked: 'For what will you buy her?' I said: 'For these two she-camels of mine and the young born to them.' He said: 'And will you also give me this camel of yours?' I said: 'Very well, (on condition that) you send one of your men with me; when I reach my home, I will send this camel back to you.' He did so, and when I reached my home I returned the camel to him. At some time during the night I was thinking that this was a noble deed that no Arab had done before me. By the time Islam appeared, I had saved the lives of 360 girls who were going to be buried alive; I bought each one of them for two pregnant she-camels and one camel. So will I have a reward for that?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You have also received a reward in that Allah Almighty has blessed you with Islam." The narrator Abbad says: What Sayyiduna Sa'sa'ah (may Allah be pleased with him) related is alluded to in this verse of al-Farazdaq: "And my grandfather is the one who saved the girls from being buried alive; he (that is, my grandfather) gave them life, and they were not buried alive."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and Imam al-Bazzar also recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, al-Tufayl bin Amr al-Tamimi, about whom Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) said: His narrated hadith is not authentic; and al-Uqayli said: He is not corroborated in it.
