حَدِيثُ خَالِدٍ الْعَدْوَانِيِّ (١)، ١٨٩٥٨ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ: وَسَمِعْتُهُ، ، أَنَا مِنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْفَزَارِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الطَّائِفِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْعَدْوَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ أَبْصَرَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَشْرِقِ ثَقِيفٍ، وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى قَوْسٍ، أَوْ عَصًا حِينَ أَتَاهُمْ يَبْتَغِي عِنْدَهُمُ النَّصْرَ، قَالَ: " فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقْرَأُ: وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا "، قَالَ: فَوَعَيْتُهَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَأَنَا مُشْرِكٌ، ثُمَّ قَرَأْتُهَا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، قَالَ: فَدَعَتْنِي ثَقِيفٌ فَقَالُوا: مَاذَا سَمِعْتَ مِنْ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ؟ فَقَرَأْتُهَا عَلَيْهِمْ، فَقَالَ مَنْ مَعَهُمْ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ: نَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِصَاحِبِنَا، لَوْ كُنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا يَقُولُ حَقًّا لَاتَّبَعْنَاهُ (١)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Khalid Adwani (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (ﷺ) came to the tribe of Thaqif to seek help, they saw the Prophet (ﷺ) in the eastern part of Thaqif. At that time, the Prophet (ﷺ) was standing, leaning on a bow or a staff. I heard him reciting the complete Surah "Was-Samaa'i wat-Tariq." At that time, I was a polytheist, but even then I memorized it by heart. Later, after becoming a Muslim, I continued to recite it. The people of the tribe of Thaqif called me and asked, "What did you hear this man reciting?" I recited that Surah to them. The people of Quraysh who were present among their companions said, "We know our companion very well. If we were certain that what he is saying is true, we would surely follow him."
