Others, 316 however, report this narration thus: “He (al-`Aaṣ) rode to Ṭaa’if on a donkey<br />
that let him down on a thorn and it pierced the sole of his foot and killed him.”<br />
<strong>Al</strong>-Baihaqee 317 also reported this narration in much the same way.<br />
[Shaikh al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee’s addendum]<br />
It was narrated from Khabbaab ,رضيُاهللُعنه concerning the Aayah:<br />
﴿وَّلَُُتَط ردُُِالَّذِينَُُيَد ع ونَُُرَبَّه مُبِال غَدَاةُُِوَال عَشِ يُُِّي رِيد ونَُُوَج هَهُُُۖمَاُعَلَي كَُُمِن ُُحِ سَاِبِِمُمِّنُشَيءُُوَمَاُ<br />
مِن ُُحِ سَابِكَُُعَلَي هِمُمِّنُشَيءُُفَتَط ر دَه م ُُفَتَك ونَُُمِنَُُالظَّالِمِنيَُ﴾<br />
{And turn not away those who invoke their Lord, morning and afternoon seeking His<br />
Face. Not upon you is anything of their account and not upon them is anything of<br />
your account. So were you to send them away, you would (then) be of the<br />
wrongdoers.} [Surah al-An`aam (6): 52]<br />
He (Khabbaab) said: “<strong>Al</strong>-Aqra` Ibn Ḥaabis al-Tameemee and `Uyainah Ibn Ḥiṣn al-<br />
Fazaaree came and found the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ with Suhaib, Bilaal, `Ammaar<br />
and Khabbaab, sitting with some of the believers who were weak (i.e., socially and<br />
vulnerable to attack by the Mushriks). When they (al-Aqra` and `Uyainah) saw them<br />
around the Prophet ﷺ they looked down on them. They took him ﷺ aside and<br />
said: ‘We want you to sit with us alone so that the `Arabs will recognize our superiority.<br />
The delegations of the `Arabs visit you and we will feel ashamed if the `Arabs see us<br />
with these slaves. So, when we come to you, make them get up from your presence,<br />
then when we have finished, sit with them if you wish.’ He ﷺ said: ❝Yes.❞ They<br />

and he further said: it was also reported by <strong>Al</strong>-Ṭabaraanee in “al-Awsat” (4986) and Ibn Mardawaih with a<br />
“Ḥasan” chain. Ibn Jareer (14/70) reported this from Sa`eed Ibn Jubair in a “Mursal” form. And regarding the<br />
narration of Ibn `Abbaas, al-Haithamee (7/47) said: “al-Ṭabaraanee has reported it in “al-Awsat”, but in its chain is<br />
Muḥammad Ibn `Abdul Hakeem al-Neesaapooree, and I don’t know who he is, and remaining narrators are all<br />
reliable.”<br />
