Mustadrak al-Hakim — Hadith 4293

It is narrated from Ibn Ishaq that Abu Talib composed some verses about the Negus in which he urged him to be a good neighbour to the Muslims and to defend them: "O best of people! Know that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is a helper and supporter of Musa and Isa son of Maryam (peace be upon them both) (an heir to the same mission). He has brought the same guidance that they both brought, so each guides and protects (from sin) by the command of Allah. And you too find him in your Book with truthful speech, not the (distorted) speech of some translator. And whatever group of these Muslims comes to you, because of your grace, will return only with honour and generosity."
