Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39691 — Reports on the conquest of Makkah

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered Makkah, and when he (peace and blessings be upon him) entered Makkah, he (peace and blessings be upon him) had drawn the end of a turban of black cloth over his face. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) circumambulated the House of Allah on his she-camel al-Qaswa', and in his (peace and blessings be upon him) hand was a crooked staff with which he (peace and blessings be upon him) touched the corners. The narrator said: Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: We found no place in the mosque to make his (peace and blessings be upon him) she-camel kneel, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) came down on the hands of the people. Then his (peace and blessings be upon him) she-camel was taken out and made to kneel in the valley. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon standing on his feet. He (peace and blessings be upon him) praised Allah and extolled Him as He deserves, and said: 2. "O people! Indeed Allah Almighty has removed from you the arrogance and pride of the Jahiliyyah, and also the display of greatness through one's forefathers. (Now) people are of two kinds: the righteous, Allah-fearing man, who is honoured and esteemed by Allah Almighty, and the disbeliever, the wretched, who is light and worthless before Allah Almighty. O people! Indeed Allah Almighty says: 'O people! The truth is that We created all of you from one man and one woman, and We divided you into different nations and families so that you may recognize one another. In truth, the most honoured of you with Allah is the one who is most Allah-fearing among you. Be certain that Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware' [Al-Hujurat: 13]. I say this and I seek forgiveness from Allah Almighty for myself and for you." 3. The narrator said: Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to one side of the mosque. A bucket of Zamzam water was brought to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) washed his blessed face with it. Every drop of its washing fell only into a human hand. If that drop was enough to be drunk, the man would drink it, otherwise he would rub it on himself. The polytheists of Makkah were watching (this scene), and they said: "We have never seen a kingship greater than (the one) we have seen today, nor a people more foolish than the people we have seen today." 4. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him), so he climbed onto the roof of the Ka'bah and called the adhan for the prayer. The Muslims stood up and, wearing only their lower garments, took the buckets and came to Zamzam reciting verses. They washed the Ka'bah inside and out, and they left no trace of the polytheists in the Ka'bah, but erased it or washed it away.
