Ibn Is-ḥaaq also said: <strong>Al</strong>-Waleed Ibn al-Mugheerah was standing talking with the<br />
Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ while he ﷺ was addressing him, wishing to convert him to<br />
Islaam; at that moment, Ibn Umm Maktoom `Aatikah Bint `Abdullaah Ibn Ankthah,<br />
passed by. Ibn Umm Maktoom, who was blind, addressed the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah<br />
and began asking him to recite the Qur’aan. This upset the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ<br />
to the point of angering him, and this was because he was interfering with the ﷺ<br />
Prophet’s efforts to convert al-Waleed to Islaam as he was hoping. When Ibn Umm<br />
Maktoom kept persisting, the Prophet ﷺ turned away from him frowning and<br />
ignored him. So <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل revealed:<br />
﴿عَبَسَ ُوَتَوَىلَّىُ*ُأَنُجَاءَُه ُاِّل َع مَى﴾ُإىلُقولهُ﴿مَّر ف وعَة ُمُّطَهَّرَة ﴾<br />
{(The Prophet (Peace be upon him)) frowned and turned away, Because there came<br />
to him the blind man (i.e. `Abdullaah Ibn Umm Maktoom, who came to the Prophet<br />
(Peace be upon him) while he was preaching to one or some of the Quraish chiefs)…}<br />
till the saying of <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل {Exalted (in dignity), purified} [Surah `Abasa (80): 1-14] 281<br />
be receiving our share from it. And if what we have is better than what you have brought, then you will be<br />
participating with us in our affair, and you will be receiving your share from it.’ So, <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل revealed the<br />
Surah….” The chain of this narration is “Mursal Ṣaḥeeḥ” (i.e. the chain till Sa`eed Ibn Mainaa’ is “Ṣaḥeeḥ”). This is<br />
further strengthened by the Ḥadeeth of Ibn `Abbaas: “The Quraish promised the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ that<br />
they would give him wealth…” till the end of the Ḥadeeth. The complete narration will be mentioned later in this<br />
chapter.<br />
281 (Shaikh al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee said): Reported by Ibn Is-ḥaaq in “al-<strong>Seerah</strong>” (1/389-390) in a “Mu`allaq” form. Ibn Sa`d<br />
connected its chain in “al-Ṭabaqaat al-Kubraa” (4/208), from the route of Hishaam Ibn `Urwah, from his father,<br />
who said: “The Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ was sitting with a group of people from Quraish, among them were<br />
`Utbah Ibn Rabee`ah, and some elites from the Quraish…” then he narrated the rest of the Ḥadeeth. The chain of<br />
this narration is “Ṣaḥeeḥ Mursal”. Furthermore, al-Tirmidhee connected the chain in his “Sunan” (3331), and Ibn<br />
Jareer (30/50), and al-Ḥaakim (3896), from another route, from Hishaam Ibn `Urwah, from his father, from<br />
`Aaishah ,رضيُاهللُعنها who said… and then they mentioned the Ḥadeeth. <strong>Al</strong>-Tirmidhee said: “The Ḥadeeth is “Ḥasan<br />
Ghareeb”. <strong>Al</strong>-Ḥaakim said: “It is “Ṣaḥeeḥ as per the condition of the Shaikhain”, but a group of scholars said it is<br />
“Mursal” from the narrations of Hishaam Ibn `Urwah”, and al-Dhahabee said: “that (it being “Mursal”) is more<br />
correct”.<br />
I (al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee) say: But there are supporting chains which strengthen this Ḥadeeth, which have been mentioned<br />
by al-Suyooṭee in “al-Durr” (6/314-315), from them are what Ibn Jareer mentioned in his “Tafseer” (30/51), and<br />
Ibn Mardawaih, from Ibn `Abbaas ُاهلل ُعنهما ,رضي who said: “While the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ was addressing<br />
`Utbah Ibn Rabee`ah, Abu Jahl Ibn Hishaam, `Abbaas Ibn `Abdul Muṭṭalib - he ﷺ was concentrating on them a<br />
lot and presenting them evidences so that they would believe – at that moment a blind man came to him…” and<br />
the rest of the Ḥadeeth is similar to the previous one.<br />
