حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْأُمَوِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ الْأَسَدِيُّ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الثَّقَفِيِّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : قَدِمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَفْدُ بَنِي أَسَدٍ فَتَكَلَّمُوا فَأَبَانُوا ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَاتَلَتْكَ مُضَرُ كُلُّهَا وَلَمْ نُقَاتِلْكَ ، وَلَسْنَا بِأَقَلِّهِمْ عَدَدًا وَلَا أَكَلِّهِمْ شَوْكَةً ، وَصَلْنَا رَحِمَكَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ حَيْثُ سَمِعَ كَلَامَهُمْ : أَيَتَكَلَّمُونَ هَكَذَا ؟ قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ فِقْهَهُمْ لَقَلِيلٌ ، وَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَيَنْطِقُ عَلَى لِسَانِهِمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a delegation of the tribe of Banu Asad came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). They spoke and stated their purpose with great eloquence, saying: "O Messenger of Allah! All the tribes of Mudar fought against you, but we did not fight you, even though we are neither fewer than them in number nor behind them in arms and strength; we have upheld the ties of kinship with you (i.e. honoured our blood relationship)." When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) heard these words of theirs, he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both): "Do they speak like this (reminding of their favours)?" He replied: "O Messenger of Allah! Their understanding of the religion is very little, and indeed Satan speaks upon their tongues."
