Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ أَتَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي الْحِجْرِ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ إِيَّاكَ وَالْإِلْحَادَ فِي حَرَمِ اللَّهِ فَإِنِّي أَشْهَدُ لَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ يُحِلُّهَا وَ
يَحُلُّ بِهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ لَوْ وُزِنَتْ ذُنُوبُهُ بِذُنُوبِ الثَّقَلَيْنِ لَوَزَنَتْهَا قَالَ فَانْظُرْ أَنْ لَا تَكُونَ هُوَ يَا ابْنَ عَمْرٍو فَإِنَّكَ قَدْ قَرَأْتَ الْكُتُبَ وَصَحِبْتَ الرَّسُولَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فَإِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ أَنَّ هَذَا وَجْهِي إِلَى الشَّأْمِ مُجَاهِدًا

English Translation
It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr (رضي الله عنهما) — via Hashim, from Ishaq ibn Sa'id, from Sa'id ibn 'Amr — that 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr came to Ibn al-Zubayr while he was sitting in al-Hijr and said: 'O Ibn al-Zubayr, beware of [committing] desecration [al-ilhad] in the sanctuary of Allah — for I testify that I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "A man from Quraysh will violate its sanctity — and disaster will befall him — whose sins, if weighed against the sins of all mankind and jinn, would outweigh them."' Ibn al-Zubayr said: 'Take care that it not be you, O Ibn 'Amr — for you have read the scriptures and accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' He replied: 'I call you as my witness that this face of mine is turned toward Syria as a mujahid [in the way of Allah].'
