Rasool-Allah -saww sent both of them in front of him -saww to Quraysh inviting them to Al Islam, and said: ‘One who enters the house of Abu Sufyan and he is at the top of Makkah, so he would be safe, and one who enters the house of Hekeem, and it is at the lower end of Makkah, so he would be safe, and one who locks his door and restrains his hand (from fighting) so he would be safe’.
وَ لَمَّا خَرَجَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ وَ حَكِيمٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ عَامِدِينَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ بَعَثَ فِي أَثَرِهِمَا الزُّبَيْرُ وَ أَمَّرَهُ عَلَى خَيْلِ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَغْرِزَ رَايَتَهُ بِأَعْلَى مَكَّةَ بِالْحَجُونِ، وَ قَالَ: لَا تَبْرَحْ حَتَّى آتِيَكَ And when Abu Sufyan and Hakeem came out from the presence of Rasool-Allah -saww , deliberating to Makkah, he -saww sent Al Zubeyr in their footsteps and made him a commander upon the cavalry of the Emigrants and instructed him that he waves his flag at the top of Makkah with the waving, and he -saww said: ‘Do not give up until I -saww come to you’.
ثُمَّ دَخَلَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ بِمَكَّةَ وَ ضُرِبَتْ خَيْمَتُهُ هُنَاكَ، وَ بَعَثَ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ فِي كَتِيبَةٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فِي مُقَدِّمَتِهِ وَ بَعَثَ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ فِيمَنْ كَانَ أَسْلَمَ مِنْ قُضَاعَةَ وَ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ وَ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ مِنْ أَسْفَلِ مَكَّةَ وَ يَغْرِزَ رَايَتَهُ دُونَ الْبُيُوتِ Then he -saww entered Makkah and struck his -saww tent over there.
And he -saww sent Sa’ad Bin Ubada among a battalion of the Helpers in front of him, and sent Khalid Bin Al Waleed among the ones who had become Muslims from (the clan of) Quza’a, and clan of Suleym, and instructed him that he enter from the lower part of Makkah, and he should wave his flag besides the houses.
وَ أَمَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ جَمِيعاً أَنْ يَكُفُّوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَ لَا يُقَاتِلُوا إِلَّا مَنْ قَاتَلَهُمْ، وَ أَمَرَهُمْ بِقَتْلِ أَرْبَعَةِ نَفَرٍ: سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ، وَ الْحُوَيْرِثِ بْنِ نُفَيْلٍ وَ ابْنِ خَطَل وَ مِقْيَسِ بْنِ صُبَابَةَ And Rasool-Allah -saww ordered them all that they should restrain their hands and not fight except ones who fights them, and ordered them with killing four persons – Sa’ad Bin Abu Sar’h, and Al Howeyris Bin Nufeyl, and Ibn Khatal, and Miqyas Bin Subaba.
