Saheeh Seerah Al Albaanee English

Had we breastfed Ibn Abee Shamrah or Nou`maan Ibn al-Mundhir, 27 and were we to be
afflicted with the same calamity through them as we are suffering through you, we
would have hoped for their help and kindness, (and from you, we expect even more) as
you are the best (and most honored) of those who take care. He then recited a few lines
of poetry…’” 28
This narration was also reported (from a different chain) on the authority of Abee Ṣard,
Zuhair Ibn Jarwal, and he was the chief of his people, who said: “On the Day of Ḥunain,
when the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ held us captives as prisoners of war, while he was
segregating between the men and the women, I sat in front of him and made him hear
the poetry and reminded him of his nurturing and upbringing in the (land of Hawaazin)
during his days of babyhood [and then he recited the poetry] The Messenger of Allaah
said: ❝As for what belongs to me and to the children of Abdul Muṭṭalib, you ﷺ
may consider them, from now on, as yours. And I will ask my folks-men to give back
theirs.❞ Upon hearing that the Anṣaar said: “What belongs to us is, from now on,
29 ‏”.ﷺ offered to the Messenger of Allaah
And it will be mentioned later on how he ﷺ released for them their kith and kin, and
they were six thousand in number, consisting of children and women, and he provided
for them numerous cattle and men.
This is all due to his ﷺ instant blessings in this world, so what about his blessings on
those who follow him (upon righteousness), in the home of the Hereafter?!
27 [TN: Al-Ḥaarith Ibn Abee Shamrah was the king of Syria and al-Nou`maan Ibn al-Mundhir was the king of `Iraaq.
[Seerah Ibn Hishaam (2/489)]]
28 Seerah of Ibn Hishaam (4/131), but he did not mention the verses from the poem. The chain of this narration is
“Ḥasan”. Al-Ṭabaraanee has also reported this from Ibn Is-ḥaaq, and the poetry is mentioned in there. There is a
supporting chain for this narration which will be mentioned next. And both these narrations have been discussed
in “al-Ṣaḥeeḥah” (3252).
29 Al-Ṭabaraanee reported this in all of his three “Mu`jam” (Kabeer, Awsaṭ, and Sagheer) with a chain in which one
of its narrators is Majhool, but al-Ḥaafiẓh (Ibn Ḥajar) graded it as “Ḥasan” Al-Ḍhiyaa’ al-Maqdisee reported this in
his “al-Mukhtaar” and it is “Qawiy” (strong) due to the previous narration. This is why I have reported it in “al-
Ṣaḥeeḥah” as mentioned earlier.
