[قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ] ، حَدَّثَنَا مَسْرُوقُ بْنُ الْمَرْزُبَانِ الْكُوفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ: فَحَدَّثَنِي حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَبِيعَةَ بْنَ عِبَادٍ الدِّيلِيَّ، قَالَ: إِنِّي لَمَعَ أَبِي رَجُلٌ شَابٌّ أَنْظُرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتْبَعُ (١) الْقَبَائِلَ، وَوَرَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ أَحْوَلُ، وَضِيءٌ ذُو جُمَّةٍ، يَقِفُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الْقَبِيلَةِ فَيَقُولُ: " يَا بَنِي فُلَانٍ، إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ إِلَيْكُمْ، آمُرُكُمْ أَنْ تَعْبُدُوا اللهَ، وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا، وَأَنْ تُصَدِّقُونِي وَتَمْنَعُونِي (٢) حَتَّى أُنْفِذَ عَنِ اللهِ مَا بَعَثَنِي بِهِ " فَإِذَا فَرَغَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ مَقَالَتِهِ، قَالَ الْآخَرُ: مِنْ خَلْفِهِ يَا بَنِي فُلَانٍ، إِنَّ هَذَا يُرِيدُ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَسْلُخُوا اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّى وَحُلَفَاءَكُمْ مِنَ الْحَيِّ بَنِي مَالِكِ بْنِ أُقَيْشٍ إِلَى مَا جَاءَ بِهِ مِنَ الْبِدْعَةِ وَالضَّلَالَةِ، فَلَا تَسْمَعُوا لَهُ، وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوهُ، فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي: مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: عَمُّهُ أَبُو لَهَبٍ (٣)، ، •

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Rabi’ah that in my youth, I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) with my father in the market called Dhu al-Majaz, going among the various tribes of people and presenting his message to them. Behind the Prophet (ﷺ) was a squint-eyed man, whose complexion was fair and whose hair was long. The Prophet (ﷺ) would stop by a tribe and say, “O Banu so-and-so, I am Allah’s Messenger to you. I command you to worship Allah and not associate anything with Him. Affirm my truthfulness and protect me so that I may convey Allah’s message.” When the Prophet (ﷺ) finished his words, that man would say from behind, “O Banu so-and-so, this man wants you to abandon Lat, Uzza, and your allied tribes, and to turn you towards his newly invented religion. So do not listen to him and do not follow him.” I asked my father, “Who is this squint-eyed man behind?” The people said, “This is the Prophet’s (ﷺ) uncle, Abu Lahab.”
