Hadith 593
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْقُرْمُطِيُّ مِنْ وَلَدِ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ ، بِبَغْدَادَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ نَضْلَةَ الْخُزَاعِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَضْلَةَ ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ، حَدَّثَتْنِي مَيْمُونَةُ بِنْتُ الْحَارِثِ زَوْجُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ "بَاتَ عِنْدَهَا فِي لَيْلَتَهَا ، فَقَامَ يَتَوَضَّأُ لِلصَّلاةِ ، فَسَمِعَتْهُ يَقُولُ فِي مُتَوَضَّئِهِ : لَبَّيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ ثَلاثًا ، نُصِرْتَ نُصِرْتَ ، ثَلاثًا ، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ ، قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُ فِي مُتَوَضَّئِكَ : لَبَّيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ ثَلاثًا ، نُصِرْتَ نُصِرْتَ ، ثَلاثًا ، كَأَنَّكَ تُكَلِّمُ إِنْسَانًا ، فَهَلْ كَانَ مَعَكَ أَحَدٌ ؟ فَقَالَ : هَذَا رَاجِزُ بَنِي كَعْبٍ يَسْتَصْرِخُنِي ، وَيَزْعُمُ أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا أَعَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ بَنِي بَكْرٍ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَمَرَ عَائِشَةَ أَنْ تُجَهِّزَهُ ، وَلا تُعْلِمْ أَحَدًا ، قَالَتْ : فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : يَا بُنَيَّةُ ، مَا هَذَا الْجِهَازُ ؟ فَقَالَتْ : وَاللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي ، فَقَالَ : وَاللَّهِ مَا هَذَا زَمَانُ غَزْوِ بَنِي الأَصْفَرِ ، فَأَيْنَ يُرِيدُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قَالَتْ : وَاللَّهِ لا عِلْمَ لِي ، قَالَتْ : فَأَقَمْنَا ثَلاثًا ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ بِالنَّاسِ ، فَسَمِعْتُ الرَّاجِزَ يُنْشِدُهُ : يَا رَبِّ إِنِّي نَاشِدٌ مُحَمَّدَا حِلْفَ أَبِينَا وَأَبِيهِ الأَتْلَدَا إِنَّا وَلَدْنَاكَ وَكُنْتَ وَلَدَا ثَمَّةَ أَسْلَمْنَا ، وَلَمْ نَنْزَعْ يَدَا إِنَّ قُرَيْشًا أَخْلَفُوكَ الْمَوْعِدَا وَنَقَضُوا مِيثَاقَكَ الْمُؤَكَّدَا وَزَعَمُوا أَنْ لَسْتَ تَدْعُو أَحَدَا فَانْصُرْ هَدَاكَ اللَّهُ نَصْرًا أَيَّدَا وَادْعُ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ يَأْتُوا مَدَدَا فِيهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَدْ تَجَرَّدَا إِنْ سِيمَ خَسْفًا وَجْهُهُ تَرَبَّدَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ : لَبَّيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ ثَلاثًا ، نُصِرْتَ نُصِرْتَ ، ثَلاثًا ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ بِالرَّوْحَاءِ نَظَرَ إِلَى سَحَابٍ مُنْتَصَبٍ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ السَّحَابَ هَذَا لَيَنْتَصِبُ بِنَصْرِ بَنِي كَعْبٍ ، فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي عَدِيِّ بْنِ عَمْرٍو أَخُو بَنِي كَعْبِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَنَصْرُ بَنِي عَدِيٍّ ؟ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ : تَرِبَ نَحْرُكَ ، وَهَلْ عَدِيُّ إِلا كَعْبٌ ، وَكَعْبٌ إِلا عَدِيُّ ، فَاسْتُشْهِدَ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ فِي ذَلِكَ السَّفَرِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ : اللَّهُمَّ اعْمِ عَلَيْهِمْ خَبَرَنَا حَتَّى نَأْخُذَهُمْ بَغْتَةً ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ حَتَّى نزل بِمَرْوَ ، وَكَانَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، وَحَكِيمُ بْنُ حِزَامٍ ، وَبُدَيْلُ بْنُ وَرْقَاءَ ، خَرَجُوا تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ حَتَّى أَشْرَفُوا عَلَى مَرْوَ ، فَنَظَرَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ إِلَى النِّيرَانِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا بُدَيْلُ ، هَذِهِ نَارُ بَنِي كَعْبٍ أَهْلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : جَاشَتْهَا إِلَيْكَ الْحَرْبُ ، فَأَخَذَتْهُمْ مُزَيْنَةُ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ ، وَكَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْحِرَاسَةُ ، فَسَأَلُوا أَنْ يَذْهَبُوا بِهِمْ إِلَى الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، فَذَهَبُوا بِهِمْ ، فَسَأَلَهُ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ أَنْ يَسْتَأْمِنَ لَهُمْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَخَرَجَ بِهِمْ حَتَّى دَخَلَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَأَلَهُ أَنْ يُؤَمِّنَ لَهُ مَنْ آمَنَ ، فَقَالَ : قَدْ أَمَّنْتُ مَنْ أَمَّنْتَ مَا خَلا أَبَا سُفْيَانَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لا تَحْجُرْ عَلَيَّ ، فَقَالَ : مَنْ أَمَّنْتَ فَهُوَ آمِنٌ ، فَذَهَبَ بِهِمُ الْعَبَّاسُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ بِهِمْ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ : إِنَّا نُرِيدُ أَنْ نَذْهَبَ ، فَقَالَ : أَسْفِرُوا ، وَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتَوَضَّأُ ، وَابْتَدَرَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَضُوءَهُ يَنْتَضِحُونَهُ فِي وُجُوهِهِمْ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ : يَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ ، لَقَدْ أَصْبَحَ مُلْكُ ابْنِ أَخِيكَ عَظِيمًا ، فَقَالَ : لَيْسَ بِمُلْكٍ ، وَلَكِنَّهَا النُّبُوَّةُ ، وَفِي ذَلِكَ يَرْغَبُونَ "، لَمْ يَرْوِهِ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ ، إِلا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَضْلَةَ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، وَلا يُرْوَى عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ ، إِلا بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ
Sayyida Maymunah bint al-Harith (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of the Prophet (peace be upon him), says: Once the Prophet (peace be upon him) spent the night with me, then he got up and began to perform ablution for prayer. I heard him say at his place of ablution, "Labbayk, labbayk" three times and "Nusrat, nusrat" three times, meaning, "I am present, I am present, you have been helped, you have been helped," three times. When he left, I said, "O Messenger of Allah! I heard you saying at your place of ablution: 'I am present, I am present' three times, 'You have been helped, you have been helped' three times, as if you were talking to someone. Was there anyone with you at that time?" He replied, "The poet of Banu Ka'b was calling me and saying that Quraysh had helped Banu Bakr against them." Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) went out and ordered Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) to prepare herself and not to inform anyone. She says: At that time, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came and said, "Daughter, what is this preparation for?" She said, "By Allah! I do not know." Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "By Allah! This is not the time for war with the Romans, so where is the Prophet (peace be upon him) intending to go?" She said, "By Allah, I do not know." She says that then we stayed for three days, the Prophet (peace be upon him) led the people in the morning prayer, and we heard a poet reciting, saying: "O my Lord! I beseech Muhammad (peace be upon him), who was the old ally of us and our father. We gave birth to you and you were a child, then we became Muslims and we never withdrew our hand from you, Quraysh has broken its promise with you and has violated its firm covenant with you. They say: You cannot call anyone. So strengthen our help, may Allah guide you, and call upon the servants of Allah and help us, among whom are the Prophets and Messengers of Allah who have unsheathed their swords. If they are humiliated, their faces will change." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "You will be helped, you will be helped," three times. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) went out, and when he reached Ruhā', he saw a rising cloud and said: "This cloud has risen for the help of Banu Ka'b." A man from Banu 'Adi bin 'Amr, who was the brother of Banu Ka'b bin 'Amr, stood up and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Will Banu 'Adi also be helped?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "May your chest be covered with dust, 'Adi is Ka'b and Ka'b is 'Adi." So this man was present on this journey. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) prayed: "O Allah! Conceal our news from them until we attack them suddenly." Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) set out until he camped at Marr. Abu Sufyan bin Harb, Hakim bin Hizam, and Budayl bin Warqa' also set out until they too reached Marr. Abu Sufyan saw burning fires and said: "Budayl! These are the fires of Banu Ka'b, your family." He said: "War has thrown him towards you and is inciting him." That night, the people of Muzaynah caught them and were responsible for guarding them. They asked the people of Muzaynah to take them to Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib, so they took them to him. They sought protection from Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) to secure safety from the Prophet (peace be upon him). So he took them to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and sought protection for them. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever you have granted protection, we have also granted protection, except only Abu Sufyan is excluded from this." Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah! Do not restrict me." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever you have granted safety is safe." Then Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) went and brought them to the Prophet (peace be upon him). Abu Sufyan said: "We want to leave." Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Wait until it is light." The Prophet (peace be upon him) got up and began to perform ablution, and the Muslims began to collect the water from his ablution and sprinkle it on their faces. Abu Sufyan said: "O Abu al-Fadl (the kunyah of Sayyiduna Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him)! The kingdom of your nephew has greatly increased." Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "This is not kingship, it is Prophethood, and it is to this that people are inclined."
