The Deputation of Qushayr Ibn Kab Volume 1, Parts II.74.21 He (Ibn Sad) said: Hisham Ibn Muhammad informed us on the
authority of a man of Banu Uqayl; (second chain) Abi Ibn Muhammad al-Qurashi informed us, they said: A party of Banu Qushayr, which included Thawr IbnUrwah Ibn Abd Allah Ibn Salmah Ibn Qushayr, waited in deputation on the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him. He (Thawr) embraced Islam and so the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, granted him a fief, and wrote a document in his favour. Among them was Haydah Ibn Muáwiyah Ibn
Qushayr [P. 47] and it was before the hajjat al-wadà` (pilgrimage of
farewell) and after (the battle of) Hunayn. Among them was Qurrah Ibn
Hubayrah lbn Salmat al-Khayr Ibn Qushayr. He embraced Islam, so the
Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, made a gift to him and covered
him with a sheet and commanded him to be beneficent to his people, i.e.,
he should collect sadaqah. So when Qurrah returned, he recited:
When it (deputation) waited on him (the Prophet) he honoured it and
granted an everlasting grace.
It halted in a green pasture and although it had been very fastmoving its requirements were fulfilled by Muhammad.
Its head is a youth and no blame touches his saddle. He corrects the
affairs of those who are helpless wavering.
