Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الدَّارِيُّ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْخٌ أَدْرَكَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةَ وَنَحْنُ فِي غَزْوَةِ رُودِسَ يُقَالُ لَ
هُ ابْنُ عَبْسٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَسُوقُ لِآلٍ لَنَا بَقَرَةً قَالَ فَسَمِعْتُ مِنْ جَوْفِهَا آلَ ذَرِيحْ قَوْلٌ فَصِيحْ رَجُلٌ يَصِيحْ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ قَالَ فَقَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ فَوَجَدْنَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ خَرَجَ

Muhammad ibn Bakr narrated to us, 'Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Ziyad informed us, 'Abdullah ibn Kathir al-Dari narrated to me, from Mujahid who said: A shaykh who had witnessed the Jahiliyyah narrated to us while we were on the expedition of Rhodes. He was called Ibn 'Abs. He said: 'the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Shaytan has despaired that the praying people will worship him in the Arabian Peninsula, but [he hopes to cause] conflict between them."'
