Musnad Abi Ya'la 902 — when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ conquered Makkah
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ جَمِيعٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ قَالَ: لَمَّا فَتَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَكَّةَ بَعَثَ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ إِلَى نَخْلَةٍ، وَكَانَتْ بِهَا الْعُزَّى، فَأَتَاهَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، وَكَانَتْ عَلَى تِلَالِ السَّمُرَاتِ، فَقَطَعَ السَّمُرَاتِ وَهَدَمَ الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَخْبَرَهُ، فَقَالَ: «ارْجِعْ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تَصْنَعْ شَيْئًا»، فَرَجَعَ خَالِدٌ، فَلَمَّا نَظَرَتْ إِلَيْهِ السَّدَنَةُ ـ وَهُمْ حُجَّابُهَا ـ أَمْعَنُوا فِي الْجَبَلِ وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: يَا عُزَّى خَبِّلِيهِ، يَا عُزَّى عَوِّرِيهِ، وَإِلَّا فَمُوتِي بِرَغْمٍ، قَالَ: فَأَتَاهَا خَالِدٌ، فَإِذَا امْرَأَةٌ عُرْيَانَةٌ نَاشِرَةٌ شَعْرَهَا تَحْثُوا التُّرَابَ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، فَعَمَّمَهَا بِالسَّيْفِ حَتَّى قَتَلَهَا، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَخْبَرَهُ، قَالَ: «تِلْكَ الْعُزَّى»
Sayyiduna Abu al-Tufayl (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) conquered Makkah, he sent Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) to Nakhlah, where al-Uzza (the idol) was. Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) reached it; it stood on hillocks with acacia trees. He cut down the acacia trees and demolished the house that had been built over it, then came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go back, for you have not done anything." So Sayyiduna Khalid (may Allah be pleased with him) went back. When its custodians, who were its gatekeepers, saw him, they fled far into the mountain, saying: "O Uzza, drive him mad! O Uzza, blind him! Otherwise, die in disgrace." Sayyiduna Khalid (may Allah be pleased with him) reached it and saw a naked woman with dishevelled hair throwing dust on her head. He struck her with the sword until he killed her, then returned to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That was al-Uzza."
