حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا صَالَحُوا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِمْ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِعَلِيٍّ اكْتُبْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلٌ أَمَّا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ فَلَا نَدْرِي مَا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَلَكِنْ اكْتُبْ مَا نَعْرِفُ بِاسْمِكَ اللَّهُمَّ فَقَالَ اكْتُبْ مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالَ لَوْ عَلِمْنَا أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لَاتَّبَعْنَاكَ وَلَكِنْ اكْتُبْ اسْمَكَ وَاسْمَ أَبِيكَ قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اكْتُبْ مِنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَاشْتَرَطُوا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ مَنْ جَاءَ مِنْكُمْ لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَمَنْ جَاءَ مِنَّا رَدَدْتُمُوهُ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتَكْتُبُ هَذَا قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّهُ مَنْ ذَهَبَ مِنَّا إِلَيْهِمْ فَأَبْعَدَهُ اللَّهُ.

'Affan told us, Hammad told us, from Thabit, from Anas, that the Quraysh made a truce with the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, among them Suhayl ibn 'Amr. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to Ali: "Write: In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful." Suhayl said: "As for 'In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful,' we do not know what 'In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful' means, but write what we recognize: 'In Your name, O God.'" He said: "Write: From Muhammad, the Messenger of God." Suhayl said: "If we knew you were the Messenger of God we would have followed you, but write your name and your father's name." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Write: From Muhammad ibn Abdullah." And they stipulated to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that whoever came to you from us we would not return him to you, but whoever came to us from you, you must return him to us. He said: "O Messenger of God, will you write this?" He said: "Yes. Whoever goes from us to them, may God cast him far away."
