Hadith 185

have done what you-la have done. Arise from this carpet until the Muslims chose one who is more rightful with it than you are! ’
Yazeed-la felt pity on him and extended to him and hugged to him-la, and said to him, ‘O Abu Muhammad! Calm down from your outburst, and use your intellect, and look with your eyes, and hear with your ears what you are saying regarding your father Umar Bin Al-Khattab. Was he not a guide, a guided one, a caliph of Rasool-Allah-saww, and his-saww helpers, and his-saww in-law by your sister Hafsa, and the one who said, ‘Allah-azwj will not be worshipped secretly’? ! ’
Abdullah said, ‘He was as you have described, for which thing are you saying regarding him? ’ He-la said, ‘Your father collared my father the command of Syria or did my father collar your father with the caliphate of Rasool-Allah-saww? ’ He said, ‘My father collared your father (the command of) Syria’. He-la said, ‘O Abu Muhammad! Are you pleased with him and his pact to my father, or you are not pleased with it? ’ He said, ‘But I am pleased’. He-la said, ‘But I am pleased’, He-la said, ‘Are you pleased with your father? ’ He said, ‘Yes’. Yazeed-la struck his-la hand upon the hand of Abdullah Bin Umar and said to him, ‘Arise, O Abu Muhammad, until you read’. He stood up with him-la until he-la came to a vault from his-la vaults. He-la entered it and called for a suitcase and opened it, and extracted from it a locked box, sealed, and took out from it a thin scroll in a black silken cloth. He-la took the scroll in his hand and spread it out, then said, ‘O Abu Muhammad! Is this the handwriting of your father? ’
He said, ‘Yes, by Allah-azwj! ’ And he took it from his-la hand and kissed it. He-la said to him, ‘Read’. Ibn Umar read it, and there was in it: In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful, the One-azwj Who Compelled us with the sword upon the acceptance with Him-azwj, so we accepted, and the chests were raging, and the souls were palpitating, and the intentions and the sights were complaining from what was upon it, from our rejection of what he-saww had called to. And we obeyed him-saww in it, for his-saww swords to be raised from us, and its proliferation with the tribes upon us from Al-Yemen, and collaborated with the ones who heard it, from the one who left his religion and what his fathers among the Quraysh had been upon. So, I hereby swear by Hobal, and the idols and the images, and Al-Laat, and Al-Uzza, whom we had not rejected the whole life since we have worshipped them! And I did not worship to Lord-azwj of the Kabah, nor ratified to Muhammad-saww of his-saww words, nor did I cast the greetings except for the means to him, and for survival of the grip with him-saww, for he-saww had come to us with great sorcery, and there was an increase in his-saww sorcery over the sorcery of the children
