حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِىُّ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَنَابٍ الْمِصِّيصِىُّ جَمِيعًا عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ يُونُسَ - وَاللَّفْظُ لإِسْحَاقَ - أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ أَخْبَرَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ عَنْ أَبِى إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ لَمَّا أُحْصِرَ النَّبِىُّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ صَالَحَهُ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ عَلَى أَنْ يَدْخُلَهَا فَيُقِيمَ بِهَا ثَلاَثًا وَلاَ يَدْخُلَهَا إِلاَّ بِجُلُبَّانِ السِّلاَحِ السَّيْفِ وَقِرَابِهِ. وَلاَ يَخْرُجَ بِأَحَدٍ مَعَهُ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا وَلاَ يَمْنَعَ أَحَدًا يَمْكُثُ بِهَا مِمَّنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ. قَالَ لِعَلِىٍّ « اكْتُبِ الشَّرْطَ بَيْنَنَا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ هَذَا مَا قَاضَى عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ». فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمُشْرِكُونَ لَوْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ تَابَعْنَاكَ وَلَكِنِ اكْتُبْ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ. فَأَمَرَ عَلِيًّا أَنْ يَمْحَاهَا فَقَالَ عَلِىٌّ لاَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَمْحَاهَا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « أَرِنِى مَكَانَهَا ». فَأَرَاهُ مَكَانَهَا فَمَحَاهَا وَكَتَبَ « ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ». فَأَقَامَ بِهَا ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ فَلَمَّا أَنْ كَانَ يَوْمُ الثَّالِثِ قَالُوا لِعَلِىٍّ هَذَا آخِرُ يَوْمٍ مِنْ شَرْطِ صَاحِبِكَ فَأْمُرْهُ فَلْيَخْرُجْ. فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ « نَعَمْ ». فَخَرَجَ. وَقَالَ ابْنُ جَنَابٍ فِى رِوَايَتِهِ مَكَانَ تَابَعْنَاكَ بَايَعْنَاكَ.

It was narrated that Al-Bara' said: When the Prophet m was prevented from reaching the Ka'bah, the people of Makkah made a treaty with him stating that he could enter (Makkah) and stay there for three days, and that he could enter it with his weapons wrapped (in leather bags made for that purpose), meaning the sword and its sheath; he could not take away with him any of its inhabitants and he could not prevent any of those who were with him if they wanted to stay there. He said to 'Ali: "Write down the terms between us: In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This is what has been agreed by Muhammad the Messenger of Allah." The Mushrikun said to him: If we knew that you were the Messenger of Allah we would have followed you. Rather write: Muhammad bin 'Abdullah. So he told 'Ali to erase it, but 'Ali said: No, by Allah, I will not erase it. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Show me where it is." So he showed him where it was and he erased it, and he wrote: "bin 'Abdullah." He stayed there for three days, then on the third day they said to 'Ali: This is the last day stipulated for your companion. Tell him to leave. So he told him about that and he said: "Yes," and left. Ibn Janab said in his narration, instead of 'we would have followed you,' 'we would have sworn allegiance to you.'
