Saheeh Seerah Al Albaanee English

`Abdullaah Ibn `Umar narrated on the authority of `Umar Ibn al-Khaṭṭaab رضيُاهللُعنه that
he went to the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ and said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah! I did not
attend a gathering where the Kuffaar had gathered except that I proclaimed my Islaam
openly. I came to al-Masjid (al-Ḥaraam), and the elites of Quraish were gathered there
in a circle. So I declared my Islaam and proclaimed the Shahaadah: ‘I testify that none
has the right to be worshiped except Allaah and Muḥammad is the Messenger of
Allaah.’ The polytheists charged toward me and started beating me and I was beating
them.’ When their number increased, a man came and rescued him. I said to `Umar:
‘Who was the one who rescued you from the polytheists (on that day)? He replied: “He
was al-`Aaṣ Ibn Waa’il al-Sahmee.”
This was reported by al-Ṭabaraanee in “al-Awsat” (1293) and all its narrators are
reliable, as mentioned by al-Haithamee in “al-Majma`” (9/65)
