Shama'il al-Muhammadiya 235

Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that Messenger of Allah ﷺ went to Makkah for Umratul Qada. Abdullah ibne Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him) (throwing his sword over his shoulder and holding the reins of the camel of Sayyidina Messenger of Allah ﷺ) was walking ahead of him reciting these couplets:
"O non-believers clear his path (and leave today. Do not prohibit Sayyidina Messenger of Allah ﷺ from entering Makkah as you had done last year) for today we shall smite you. We will take such action against you that we will separate the brain from its body. And will make a friend forget a friend."Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) stopped him and said, O Ibne Rawahah, in the presence of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Haram of Allah you are reciting poetry?Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, Leave him O Umar, these couplets are more forceful than showering arrows onto them

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ فِي عُمْرَةِ الْقَضَاءِ، وَابْنُ رَوَاحَةَ يَمْشِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: خَلُّوا بَنِي الْكُفَّارِ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ الْيَوْمَ نَضْرِبُكُمْ عَلَى تَنْزِيلِهِ ضَرْبًا يُزِيلُ الْهَامَ عَنْ مَقِيلِهِ وَيُذْهِلُ الْخَلِيلَ عَنْ خَلِيلِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: يَا ابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ، بَيْنَ يَدِي رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وَفِي حَرَمِ اللهِ تَقُولُ الشِّعْرَ، فَقَالَ ﷺ: خَلِّ عَنْهُ يَا عُمَرُ، فَلَهِيَ أَسْرَعُ فِيهِمْ، مِنْ نَضْحِ النَّبْلِ.
