Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 19127 — I was in the delegation of Abd al-Qays

حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ نَائِلَةَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ، قَالَ: ثنا شَبَابٌ الْعُصْفُرِيُّ، ثنا عَوْنُ بْنُ كَهْمَسٍ، ثنا دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْمُسَاوِرِ، عَنْ مُقَاتِلِ بْنِ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي خَيْرَةَ الصَّبَّاحِيِّ، قَالَ: «كُنْتُ فِي الْوَفْدِ الَّذِينَ أَتَوْا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ فَزَوَّدَنَا الْأَرَاكَ نَسْتَاكُ بِهِ» ، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ «عِنْدَنَا الْجَرِيدُ وَلَكِنَّا نَقْبَلُ كَرَامَتَكَ وَعَطِيَّتَكَ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِعَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ إِذْ أَسْلَمُوا طَائِعِينَ غَيْرَ مُكْرَهِينَ إِذْ قَعَدَ قَوْمِي لَمْ يُسْلِمُوا إِلَّا خَزَايَا مَوْتُورِينَ»
Sayyiduna Abu Khayrah al-Sabbahi (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was in the delegation of Abd al-Qays that came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave us arak twigs to use as tooth-sticks. We said: O Messenger of Allah! We also have palm branches, but we accept your honouring of us and your gift. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah, forgive Abd al-Qays, for they accepted Islam willingly, without being compelled, while my own people held back and did not accept Islam until they were disgraced, humiliated and defeated."
