حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الشَّرِيدِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ أَوْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ يَعْنِي عَنِ الشَّرِيدِ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ كَذَا حَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبِي، قَالَ: أَرْدَفَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَلْفَهُ، فَقَالَ: " هَلْ مَعَكَ مِنْ شِعْرِ أُمَيَّةَ شَيْءٌ؟ " قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " أَنْشِدْنِي "، فَأَنْشَدْتُهُ بَيْتًا، فَقَالَ: " هِيهْ " فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَقُولُ: " هِيهْ " حَتَّى أَنْشَدْتُهُ مِائَةَ بَيْتٍ (١)، ،

English translation

It is narrated from Shuraid (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked me to recite the poetry of Umayyah bin Abi Salt. I began reciting the verses, and whenever I recited a verse, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) would say, "Recite more," until I had recited a hundred verses. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Umayyah was close to becoming a Muslim."
