Bayhaqi 9037 — What the polytheists used to say in the talbiyah

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْبِرْتِيُّ الْقَاضِي، ثنا أَبُو حُذَيْفَةَ، ثنا عِكْرِمَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي زُمَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: إِنَّ الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَانُوا يَطُوفُونَ بِالْبَيْتِ فَيَقُولُونَ: لَبَّيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ، فَيَقُولُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " قَدْ قَدْ " فَيَقُولُونَ إِلَّا شَرِيكٌ هُوَ لَكَ تَمْلِكُهُ وَمَا مَلَكَ، وَيَقُولُونَ: غُفْرَانَكَ غُفْرَانَكَ، قَالَ: فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ {وَمَا كَانَ اللهُ لِيُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَأَنْتَ فِيهِمْ وَمَا كَانَ اللهُ مُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَهُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ} [الأنفال: ٣٣]، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: كَانَ فِيهِمْ أَمَانَانِ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَالِاسْتِغْفَارُ، قَالَ: فَذَهَبَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبَقِيَ الِاسْتِغْفَارُ: {وَمَا لَهُمْ أَلَّا يُعَذِّبَهُمُ اللهُ وَهُمْ يَصُدُّونَ عَنِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَمَا كَانُوا أَوْلِيَاءَهُ إِنْ أَوْلِيَاؤُهُ إِلَّا الْمُتَّقُونَ} [الأنفال: ٣٤] قَالَ: فَهَذَا عَذَابُ الْآخِرَةِ وَذَلِكَ عَذَابُ الدُّنْيَا، أَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ مُخْتَصَرًا دُونَ قَوْلِهِمْ: غُفْرَانَكَ إِلَى آخِرِهِ.
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the polytheists, while performing tawaf of the House, would say: 'Labbayk labbayk, la sharika lak', and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: "Enough, enough." Then they would say: 'Illa sharikan huwa lak, tamlikuhu wa ma malak' ("Here we are, here we are, You have no partner except a partner who is Yours; You own him and all that he owns."). And they would say: O Allah, we seek Your forgiveness, we seek Your forgiveness. So Allah Almighty revealed this verse: "But Allah would not punish them while you are among them, and Allah would not punish them while they seek forgiveness." [Surah al-Anfal: 33] (Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: There were two safeguards among them: the Prophet of Allah and seeking forgiveness. The Prophet of Allah departed, and seeking forgiveness remained.) And this verse: "But why should Allah not punish them while they obstruct people from al-Masjid al-Haram, and they are not its guardians? Its guardians are none but the God-fearing." [Surah al-Anfal: 34]: the punishment mentioned in it is the punishment of the Hereafter, and the punishment mentioned in the first verse is the punishment of this world.
