Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1293 — from Sayyiduna Umar that he came
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا أَبُو حَاتِمٍ السِّجِسْتَانِيُّ قَالَ : نَا الْأَصْمَعِيُّ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- قَالَ : I " يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، لَا أَدَعُ مَجْلِسًا جَلَسْتُهُ فِي الْكُفْرِ إِلَّا أَعْلَنْتُ فِيهِ الْإِسْلَامَ ، فَأَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ وَفِيهِ بُطُونُ قُرَيْشٍ ، مُتَحَلِّقَةٌ ، فَجَعَلَ يُعْلِنُ الْإِسْلَامَ ، وَيَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ . فَثَارَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ ، فَجَعَلُوا يَضْرِبُونَهُ وَيَضْرِبُهُمْ ، فَلَمَّا تَكَاثَرُوا عَلَيْهِ خَلَّصَهُ رَجُلٌ I " . فَقُلْتُ لِعُمَرَ : مَنِ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي خَلَّصَكَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ؟ قَالَ : I " ذَاكَ الْعَاصُ بْنُ وَائِلٍ السَّهْمِيُّ . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ إِلَّا الْأَصْمَعِيُّ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : أَبُو حَاتِمٍ I " .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! In every place where I sat in the state of disbelief, I will now openly proclaim Islam."
Then he came to the Mosque (al-Haram), where the various clans of Quraysh were sitting in circles, and he began proclaiming Islam and bearing witness that there is no true god but Allah and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the Messenger of Allah.
At this the polytheists flared up and began beating him, and he too began beating them. Then, when the polytheists became too many for him, a man rescued him (from their grip).
(Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said:) I asked Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): "Who was the man who rescued you from the polytheists?" He said: "That was al-As bin Wa'il al-Sahmi."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Nafi' (may Allah have mercy on him) except al-Asma'i (may Allah have mercy on him), and Abu Hatim (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it."
