English Translation
It was narrated from al-Ash'ath ibn Sulaym that he heard a man in the time of Ibn al-Zubayr say: 'I heard a man in the market of Ukaz saying: O people, say La ilaha illallah and you will succeed!' And a man was following him saying: 'This man wants to turn you away from your gods!' And behold, it was the Prophet ﷺ, and the other man was Abu Jahl.
