Saheeh Seerah Al Albaanee English

people by making them say: ‘None has the right to be worshiped but Allaah’, with which
will be opened blind eyes, and deaf ears, and enveloped hearts.” 114
`Aṭaa’ Ibn Yasaar then said: I (later) met Ka`b (al-Ahbaar) رضيُاهللُعنه and asked him the
same. He replied (exactly) the same (as `Abdullaah Ibn `Amr), without any change in
wording. 115
Al-Baihaqee reported from a different route on the authority of `Aṭaa’ Ibn Yasaar that
(`Abdullaah) Ibn Salaam رضيُاهللُعنه used to say: “We do find the description of the Prophet
(mentioned in our books): ‘{O Prophet! We have sent you as a witness, and a ﷺ
giver of glad tidings, and a warner}, and guardian of the illiterates. You are My slave
and My messenger. I have named you “al-Mutawakkil” (who depends upon Allaah
alone). You are neither discourteous, harsh, nor a noisemaker in the markets; and you
do not do evil to those who do evil to you, but you deal with them with forgiveness and
kindness. Allaah will not let him (the Prophet) die till he makes straight the crooked
people by making them say: “None has the right to be worshiped but Allaah”, with
which will be opened blind eyes, and deaf ears, and enveloped hearts.’” `Aṭaa’ further
said: Al-Laithee informed me that he had heard Ka`b al-Ahbaar saying the same like Ibn
Salaam. 116
I (Ibn Katheer) say: The narration from `Abdullaah Ibn Salaam is similar to the earlier
narration, but there are more narrations from `Abdullaah Ibn `Amr due to the fact that
he found two bags full of books of the People of the Book on the day of the battle of al-
Yarmook, and he used to narrate from that a great deal. 117
One should know that many people from the Salaf (predecessors) used to apply the
word “Taurah” to the books of the People of the Book. They used it more generally (to

116 Dalaa’il al-Nubuwwah of al-Baihaqee (1/376)
I (al-Albaanee) say: al-Daarimee reported it in his Sunan (6), from the same route (as al-Baihaqee) and in it is
`Abdullaah Ibn Ṣaaleh who is “Ḍha`eef”.
117 [TN: `Abdullaah Ibn `Amr رضيُاهللُعنهما used to narrate from those scrolls because the Prophet ﷺ had allowed it
when he ﷺ said: ❝Convey (my teachings) to the people even if it were a single Aayah (Verse, sentence), and
tell others the stories of Banee Israa’eel, for it is not sinful to do so. And whoever tells a lie on me intentionally,
will surely take his place in the (Hell) Fire.❞ [Ṣaḥeeḥ al-Bukhaaree (3461) and Sunan al-Tirmidhee (2669)]]
