Muhammad Ibn Umar informed us; he said: Mamar related to me on
the authority of al-Zuhri, he on the authority of `Urwah, he on the
authority of Ayishah; (second chain) he (Ibn Sad) said: Ibn Abi
Habibah related to me on the authority of Dawud Ibn al-Husayn Ibn Abi
Ghatfán, he on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbas; (third chain) he (Ibn Sad) said: Qudamah Ibn Musa related to me on the authority ofAvishah Bint
Qudámah; (fourth chain) he (Ibn Sa’d) said: Abd Allah Ibn Muhammad IbnUmar Ibn Ali Ibn Abi Talib related to me on the authority of his father, he on the authority of 'Ubayd Allah Ibn Abi Rafi, he on the
authority of Ali; (fifth chain) he (Ibn Sa'd) said: Mamar related to me
on the authority of al-Zuhri, he on the authority of ‘Abd al-Rahmán Ibn
Malik Ibn Jushum, he on the authority of Suraqah Ibn Jushum; their
narrations are mixed up; they said:
When the infidels found that the Companions of the Apostle of Allah,
may Allah bless him, had sent their children and descendants to al-Aws
and al-Khazraj, they realised that they were resourceful people
possessing martial spirit, so they began to entertain fears of the departure
of the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him. They assembled in the Dar
al-Nadwah and none of them who had prudence and sagacity abstained
from attending the meeting and expressing his opinion about this matter.
Iblis attended the meeting in the guise of an old man of Najd and his
sword was hanging by his side. They discussed the affair of the Apostle of
Allah, may Allah bless him and every one gave his opinion; Iblis rejected
each in turn, not approving any of them. ‘At length Abu Jahl said: Let us
select a dexterous and sturdy person from every tribe of the Quraysh and
supply him with a sharp sword, and all of them should strike him
simultaneously. The blood feud will thus be shared by all of them, and
Banu ‘Abd Manaf will not be in a position to decide what to do. He (Ibn
Sad) said: The Najdi said: The excellent opinion of this youth is from Allah ! this is the real opinion, and there is no other better than this! They agreed on this and dispersed. Gabriel came to the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, and revealed this information and asked him not to sleep in his bed that night. The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, went to Abu Bakr and said: Allah has permitted me to set out. Thereupon Abu Bakr said: (What about my) accompanying you, 0 Apostle of Allah! The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, said: Yes. Abu Bakr said: My father and mother be sacrificed for you ! take one of these two beasts of burden. The Apostle of Allah said: (I shall take it after paying) the price. Abu Bakr had purchased them from the flock of Banu Qushayr for eight hundred dirhams. The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, took one of them; it was (named) al-Qaswa. He (Prophet) askedAli to sleep in his bed that night. ‘Ali passed the
night there, having covered (himself) with the red Hadrami sheet in
which the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, used to sleep. A group
of the Quraysh assembled there and began peeping through the crevices
in the door, and sat in ambush with the intention of (seizing him by) his
clothes. They were consulting as to which of them was to attack the
person sleeping in the bed. (In the meantime) the Apostle of Allah, may
Allah bless him, came out, and they were sitting at the door; he took a
handful of dust and sprinkled at their heads and recited:
“Yasin. By the wise Qur’an. Lo ! thou art of those sent. On a straight
path. A revelation of the Mighty, the Merciful, That thou mayst warn a
folk whose fathers were not warned, so they are heedless. Already hath
the word proved true of most of them, for they believe not. Lo ! We have
put on their necks carcans reaching unto the chins, so that they are made
stiff necked. And We have set a bar before them and a bar behind them,
and (thus) have covered them so that they see not. Whether thou warn
them or thou warn them not, it is alike for them, for they believe not”.
(Qur’an, 36:1-10)
The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, passed by then. Then a
person said: What are you waiting for? They said: (For) Muhammad. He
said: You are disappointed and have suffered a loss. By Allah, he passed
by you and sprinkled dust at your heads. They said: By Allah ! we did
not notice him. They stood up, removing dust from their heads; they were
Abu Jahl, al-Hakam Ibn Abi al-‘As, Ugbah Ibn Abi Mu'ayt, al-Nadr Ibn al-Harith, Umayyah Ibn Khalaf, Ibn al-Ghaytalah, Zamah Ibn al-Aswad, Tu'aymah IbnAdi, Abu Lahab, Ubayyi Ibn Khalaf and Nubayh
and Munabbih, sons of al-Hajjaj. When it was morning, `Ali got up from
his bed. They enquired from him about the Apostle of Allah, may Allah
bless him. He said: I have no information. The Apostle of Allah, may
Allah bless him, went to the house of Abu Bakr and stayed there in the
night; at last they set out, went to the cave of Thawr and entered it. A
spider span, cobweb, some parts of which covered others. The Quraysh
made a frantic search for the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him. They
even came to the entrance of the cave, but some one among them said:
Verily, spiders haunt this place trom before the birth of Muhammad; and
they returned.
Volume 1, Parts 1.63.2
Muslim Ibn Ibrahim informed us: Awn IbnAmr al-Qaysi, brother of
Riyàh al-Qaysi informed us: Abu Musab al-Makki informed us; he said: I went to Zayd Ibn Arqam, Anas Ibn Malik and al-Mughirah Ibn Shubah and heard them talking among themselves: The Prophet, may
Allah bless him, passed the night in the cave. Allah commanded a tree to
grow in front of the Prophet, may Allah bless him, which concealed him.
(Similarly) Allah commanded the spider which span its cobweb and thus
concealed him. (In the same way) Allah commanded two wild pigeons,
and they began to live at the mouth of the cave. The youth of the Quraysh
one person from each tribe with their sword, clubs and sticks approached
(the cave), and they were only (at a distance of) forty cubits from the
Prophet, may Allah bless him; the first among them noticed the two
pigeons, and so he withdrew. His companions said to him: Why did you
not look into the cave? He said: I noticed two wild pigeons at the mouth
of the cave, from which I concluded that there was none inside it. He (lbn
Sa’d) said: The Prophet, may Allah bless him, had heard his voice and
realized that Allah had kept them away. Then the Prophet, may Allah
bless him, wished good for them (pigeons) and in reward they were
shifted to the sanctuary of Allah (the Ka’bah).
The narration is in continuation of the previous one; they said: Abu
Bakr had a flock of goats and Amin lbn Fuhayrah used to graze them. He used to bring the flock of goats to them by night and they used to milk them. In the morning he got, mixed up with the people. 'Ayishah said: We prepared nice provision and put it in a vessel, and Asma Bint Abi Bakr cut her waistband into pieces and tied it with one and closed the mouth of the water-bag with another; since then she was called "she of two waist-bands". (Dhu al-Nataqayn) The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, and Abu Bakr, passed three nights in the cave, andAbd Allah
Ibn Abi Bakr stayed with them in the night. Abu Bakr hired a man of
Banu al-Duwil to lead them by unfrequented routes. His name was Abd Allah Ibn Urayqit, and he was a unbeliever, but they trusted him, and set out.Amir Ibn Fuhayrah accompanied them. While Abd Allah Ibn Urayqit led them he recited rajaz. The Quraysh did not know whither the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, had gone, till they heard the voice of a Jinn from the lower Makkah, whose body was not visible. May Allah, the Lord of the people, confer the best reward on the two Companions, who had a nap in the tent of Umm Mabad. They alighted there with
virtue and departed; he succeeded who became the Companion of
Muhammad.

Al-Harith informed us; (second chain) he (lbn Sad) said: More than one of my masters (ashab) related to me, that is, Muhammad Ibn alMuthanná al-Bazzáz and others; they said: Muhammad Ibn Bishr Ibn Muhammad al-Wasiti whose patronymic was Abu Ahmad al-Sukkari informed us:Abd al-Malik Ibn Wahb al-Madhhaji informed us on the
authority of al-Hurr Ibn al-Sayyah, he on the authority of Abu Mabàd al-Khuzái:
Verily, the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, migrated from Makkah
to al-Madinah along with Abu Bakr; ‘Amir Ibn Fuhayrah, the mawlá of
Abu Bakr and their guide Abd Allah Ibn Urayqit al-Laythi; they passed by the tents of Umm Mabad a1-Khuzài, who was stout and sturdy and kept herself covered. She sat in front of her tent providing food and water (to the people). They asked her to sell some dates and meat to them. But there was nothing with her because the people were suffering from famine and drought. She said: If we had something with us, you would not have gone without hospitality. Thereupon the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, noticed a goat tied in a corner of the tent. He said: 0 Umm Mabad! what about this goat? She said: It has remained behind
the flock because it is weak. He said: Does it give milk? She replied: It is
too weak (to give any milk). He said: Will you permit me to milk it? She
said: My father and mother be sacrificed for you, I do permit, if you find
any milk with it. The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, asked the
goat to be brought before him and touched its udder and recited in the
name of Allah, 0 Allah! Bless her through this goat. He (Ibn Sad) said: It (goat) stretched its legs, its udder became saturated (with milk), which it yielded. Then he (Prophet) asked for a large utensil which could contain milk sufficient for all of them. He milked the goat and there were foams in it. He, then, made her drink till she drank to satisfiction and then he made his Companions drink till they too were satisfied; and he, may Allah bless him, drank the milk in the end. He (Ibn Seel) said: He (the Prophet) remarked that the person who provides the drink (sáqi) should take in the end. Then they drank a second time and were satisfied. Then he milked it again and gave it to her. Then they set out. After a short time her husbaned Abu Mabad came in leading his goats which were feeble,
lean and thin without fat. When he saw the milk he was surprised. He
said: Where from did you get this milk, in spite of the fact that there was
no goat in the house capable of yielding it? She said: By Allah, this is due
to a blessed man of this description who passed by us. He said: I belive he
is the some person of the Quraysh tribe who is being pursued, so give his
detailed description, 0 Umm Ma`bad. She said: I noticed a man whose
cleanliness was manifest, whose face was bright and lustrous, whose
habits were nice, who was not a glutton, who was free from the blemish of
a short neck and small skull, who was handsome, having black eyes and
thick eye-lashes, whose voice was distinct, whose eyes were large with
black spots (pupils), very black, and white spot (apple), very white, whose
eyebrows were thick and whose neck was high and whose beard was
profuse. When he was quiet, he commanded respect and when spoke, the
beauty of his speech became express. His speech was like a string of
pearls, and very sweet. The last words uttered by him were neither brief,
suppressing the sense, nor superfluous and unnecessary. From a distance
his voice was very clear and he appeard handsome, and when he was
close, he became sweet and more handsome. His stature was not too tall
nor too short, it was middle sized. He was the loveliest of all the three to
look at, and most honoured of them. His Companions were surrounded
him. When he spoke, they lent their ears to his words, and when he
commanded, every one obeyed it. He was neither frowning nor
loquacious. He (Abu Ma’bad) said: By Allah ! he was the Qurayshite
whose affair has been mentioned to us. 0 Umm Mabad ! if I had witnessed him, I would have asked him to accompany him and I shall do it if get an opportunity: In the morning a loud voice was heard in Makkah between the earth and the heaven. The speaker, was not visible. He recited. May the Lord of the people grant good reward to the two Companions who stayed in the tents of Umm Ma'bad. They alighted in this land and set out from here and he who became the Companion of Muhammad would have salvation. 0 people of Qusayyi what happened to you that Allah did not make you do that which you could get good reward and authority. Ask your sister about her goat and the utensil, and if you ask (even) the goat, it will give answer to you. He called her with a dry goat which yeilded him milk with foam and fat. He left it there yielding milk, so that those who came, passed by and stayed there might be satiafed. In the morning the people were in search of the Prophet. They entereled the tents of Umm Ma'bad till they joihed the Prophet, may Allan bless him. He (lbn Sad) said: Hassán Ibn Thábit made a repartee and said:
The people are at a loss whose Prophet leaves them, and the people
are blessed to whom he goes in the morning and in the evening.
He set out from a people whose sagacity is in question and went to a
people with fresh effulgence.
Will the misguided people, who denied (his Prophethood) because of
want of sight be equal to those who perceives guidance from a guide?
He is a Prophet who perceives what people do not perceive around
him, and he recites the Book of Allah in every assembly.
If he says some thing about the unseen, its implementation comes by
the noon of the day or the following day.
May Abu Bakr be greeted on his good fortune of being in his
company. He is fortunate whom Allah decrees to be fortunate.
May Banu Kab be congratulated because of the position of their young women whose abode is a refuge for the Muslims.Abd al-Malik
said: It has been conveyed to us that Umm Mabad migrated and went to the Prophet, may Allah bless him, and embraced Islam. The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, came out from the cave on the night of Monday, when four nights of the month of First Rabi h
passed. Then he had a siesta at Qudayd on Tuesday. When they set out
from there, Suraqah Ibn Malik Ibn Ju`shum confronted them. He was
riding a horse when the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, cursed
him, and the legs of his horse sank (under the ground). He said: 0
Muhammad ! pray to Allah to set my horse free and I shall return from
here and I shall make those also return who are behind me. He (Prophet)
did (pray) and the legs of the horse were freed. He (Suraqah) returned
and found the people coming in search of the Apostle of Allah, may Allah
bless him, to whom he said: Go back, I have searched him on behalf of
you. He is not there and and you know well my skill in recognising the
foot-prints. Therefore they returned.

‘Uthmàn Ibn Umar imformed us on the authority of Ibn 'Awn, he on the authority ofUmayr Ibn Ishaq; he said:
The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, set out, and Abu Bakr was
with him. Suraqah Ibn (Malik Ibn) Jushum confronted them but the legs of his horse sank (in the ground). Thereupon he said: 0 you two ! pray to Allah for me and (I promise) not to repeat this. They prayed for him, but he repeated and again his horse sank. He again said: Pray for me and I shall not repeat it. He (Ibn Sad) said: He offered them provisions and a
ride. They said; yourself is sufficient for us. He said: I shall do that.
The narration is now connected with the original one (i.e. of
Muhammad Ibn Umar). He (Ibn Sa'd) said: The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, passed through al-Kharrar; then he passed through Thaniyyat al-Marah; then he passed through Laqf and passed by Madlajah Laqf; then he crossed Madlajah Mijáj; then he passed through Marjah Mijaj, then Batn Marjah, then Batn Dhat Kashd (or Kishd), then al-Hadá'id, then al-Adhàkhir, then Batn Righ, where he offered Maghrib (sunset) prayers. Then he crossed Dhu Salam, then he passed through Madlajah, then al-'Uthaniyah; then be passed Batn al-Qahah, and descended down al-'Arj; then he passed through al-Jadawàt, then through al-Ghàbir to the right of Rakubah, then he descended down Batn al-Aqiq till he reached al-Jathjàthah. Then he said: Who will lead us to
Banu ‘Amr Ibn Awf, although he was not yet near al-Madinah? Then be proceeded by the way of al-Zabyi until he emerged at al-Usbah. As the
Muhàjirs (immigrants) were expecting the arrival of the Apostle of Allah,
may Allah bless him, they used to go out in the morning with al-Ansar to
Zuhr Harrah al-‘Usbah and waited for his appearance till forenoon.
When the sun became very hot they returned to their houses. The day on
which the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, reached was Monday,
and two nights of the month of First Rabi` had passed; it is also said that twelve nights had passed. They were waiting as usual but when the sun
became too hot they returned to their houses. In the meantime a Jew
cried from above his castle in a loud voice: O Banu Qaylah ! here is your
master; he has arrived; they came out, and lo ! there was the Apostle of
Allah with his three Companions. The voice, Allah is great', could be heard at (the quarter of) BanuAmr Ibn Awf. The Muslims began to arm themselves. When the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, reached Quba, the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, sat down, and Abu Bakr stood up to speak to the people. The Muslims came to greet the Apostle Allah, may Allah bless him. The Apostle of Allah, may Allàh bless him, stayed with Kulthum Ibn al-Hidm. This is the approved narratior lib our view. He used to talk with his Companions at the residence of Sa'd Ibn Khaythamah, which was know as ManzibalUzzab.
He stayed with Sa’d Ibn Khaythamah.

`Affan Ibn Muslim informed Hammed 1bn Salamah informed us on the
authority of Thabit, he on the authority of Annas:
Verily Abu Bakr was no rider with the Prophet, may Allah bless him,
between Makkah and al Madinah. As Abu Bákr used to ivisit Syria he
was known, but the Prophet was not known their. Therefore they said: 0
Abu Bakr ! who is this youth before you? He said: He is the one who
leads me. When they came close to al-Madinah; they got down at al
Harrah and sent for al-Ansar. They came and said: Stay (here), you are
safe and secure. He (Anas) said: I saw him on the day he entered alMadinah, and I never saw a day brighter and more shining than the day
on which he entered al-Madinah; and I saw him on the day he breathed
his last, and no day was darker and more terrible than the day on which
he expired

Abu Mamar al-Minqari informed us: Abd al-Warith informed us:Abd
al-‘Aziz Ibn Suhayb informed us on the authority of Anas Ibn Malik; he
said:
The Prophet of Allah, may Allah bless him, came to al-Madinah and he
was co-rider with Abu Bakr. He (Anas) said: Abu Bakr looked an old
man (shaykh) and was known and the Prophet looked young (shab) (The
Prophet was senior to Abu Bakr by two years) and was not known. He
(Anas) said: A person met Abu Bakr and asked him: 0 Abu Bakr! Who is
this man before you? He said: This man leads me on the path. He (Anas)
said: The person guessed that helped him on the road while he only
meant the path of virtue. He (Anas) said: Abu Bakt turned aside and lo !
there was a horseman who joined them. So he said: 0 Prophet of Allah !
this horseman has reached us. He (Anas) said: The Prophet of Allahp,
may Allah bless him, turned (to him) and said: 0 Allah ! throw him down.
He (Anas) said: His horse threw him down. Then it stood neighing. He
(Anas) said: Then he (horseman) said: O Prophet of Allah ! command me
as you like. He (Anas) said: Then he (Prophet) said: stay at your place
and do not let any one reach us. He (Anas) said: In the first part of the
day he was fighting against the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him,
and by the close of the day he was armed to fight for him. He (Anas) said:
The Prophet of Allah, may Allah bless him, alighted by the side of alHarrah and sent for the Ansàr. They came to the Prophet of Allah, may
Allah bless him, greeted him, and said: Now you ride in safety and you
will be obeyed. He (Anas) said: The Prophet of Allah, may Allàh bless
him, rode and they accompanied him armed. He (Anas) said: People in alMadinah were saying: The Prophet of Allah has come, the Prophet of
Allah has come. The people looked at the Prophet of Allah and said: The
Prophet of Allah, may Allàh bless him, has come. He (Anas) said: He

(Anas) said: ‘Abd Allah Ibn Salam was conversing with the members of
his family, and was gleaning (dates) from the date-palm for his family
when he heard of the Prophet arrival. He hurried and wanted to keep
aside (the basket) in which he was collecting (dates), but could not do it
and came to him with it. He heared (the words of) the Prophet of Allah,
may Allah bless him; then he returned to his family. The Prophet of
Allah, may Allah bless him, said: Which of the houses of our family is
nearer? He (Anas) said: Abu Ayyub said: 0 Prophet of Allah ! this is my
house, and this is my door way. He (Anas) said: He (Prophet) said: Make
a place for our siesta. He (Anas) said: Then he went in and made room
for their siesta. Then he (went and) came back and said: 0 Prophet of

The Muslims had thronged around him and they had put on their arms. The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, rode his she-camel, al-Qaswá; the people were on his right and on his left. (On the way) the Ansár met him and he did not pass by a house but they (its occupants) said: 0 Prophet of Allah ! come here and you will have power, protection and prosperity. In reply he gave them blessings, prayed for them and said: She (al-Qaswa) is (divinely) commissioned, leave her way. When he reached the mosque of Banu Salim he offered Jumàh prayers
with the Muslims who were with him and they were one hundred in
number.

Yahya Ibn Muhammad al-Jari informed us; he said: Mujammi’ Ibn
Ya’qub related to me that he heard Shurahbil Ibn Sa’d say:
When the Apostle of Allah wanted to shift from Quba, Banu Salim
approached him and said to him, holding the muzzle of his she-camel: 0
Apostle of Allah ! come to a large number of (people) well prepared in
arms and (means of) defence. He said: Leave her way, she is
commissioned. Then Banu al-Harith Ibn al-Khazraj met him and said to
him something similar and he gave them a similar answer. Then Banu
‘Adi approached him and said similar words, and he gave the same
answer. Ultimately she sat down as Allah had commissioned her.
He (lbn Sad) said: Here the narration is connected with the first one; he said: Then the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, mounted his shecamel and took the road on the right side, till he arrived at Balhubla; then he moved on till he reached the (site of the) Mosque. She sat down near (site of) the Mosque of the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him. The people said to the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, to dismount there along with them. Abu Ayyub Khalid lbn Zayd Ibn Kulayb came and removed the saddle from the camel and carried it inside his residence. Thereupon the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, said: Here is a man with his saddle. As'ad Ibn Zurarah came and caught the reins of the she-camel of the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him; thus she remained with him. This is the confirmed (thàbit) narration. Zayd Ibn Thabit said: The first present offered to the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, at the residence of Abu Ayyub was the present that I brought. It was a big large bowl of tharid, containing bread, butter and milk. I said: My mother has sent this bowl. He said: May Allah bless thee. He called his Companions and they ate out of it. I had hardly left the door when the bowl of Sad Ibn Ubàdah containing tharld and meat was brought. Not a single night passed when food was not brought by three or four (persons). They were bringing in turn till the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, shifted from the house of Abu Ayyub, where he had stayed for seven months. The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, sent Zayd Ibn Harithah and Abu Ràfi from the house of Abu Ayyub with two
camels and five hundred dirhams to Makkah. They brought Fatimah and
Umm Kulthum, the daughters of the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless
him, and his wife Sawdah Bint Zamah, and Usàmah 1bn Zayd. Ruqayyah, the daughter of the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, had migrated with her husbandUthman Ibn Affan, prior to that. Abu al-As, Ibn al-Rabi, prevented his wife, Zaynab, the daughter of the
Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, from migrating. Zayd Ibn
Harithah brought his wife Umm Ayman with her son Usàmah Ibn Zayd.
‘Abd Allah Ibn Abi Bakr migrated with the children of Abu Bakr
including `Ayishah. They arrived at al-Madinah and stayed in the house of Harithah Ibn al-Nu`man.
