Hadith 23151

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبةُ ، عَنِ الْأَشْعَثِ بنِ سُلَيْمٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا فِي إِمْرَةِ ابنِ الزُّبيْرِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا فِي سُوقِ عُكَاظٍ يَقُول : " يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، قُولُوا : لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ، تُفْلِحُوا " ، وَرَجُلٌ يَتْبعُهُ يَقُولُ : إِنَّ هَذَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَصُدَّكُمْ عَنْ آلِهَتِكُمْ ، فَإِذَا النَّبيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَبو جَهْلٍ .
Ash'ath bin Salim says that during the caliphate of Abdullah bin Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him), I heard a man saying that I heard a man at the fair of 'Ukaz saying: "O people! Say La ilaha illallah, you will succeed." And behind him, another man was going, saying: "This person wants to turn you away from your gods." Later, it became known that they were the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and Abu Jahl.
