English Translation
Ya'qub told us: My father told us, from Ibn Ishaq, who said: Yahya b. Abbad b. Abd Allah b. al-Zubayr told me, from his father, from his grandmother Asma' bint Abi Bakr, who said: When the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) halted at Dhu Tuwa, Abu Quhafah said to a daughter of his, the youngest of his children, 'O my little daughter, help me up onto Abu Qubays.' His sight had failed him. She said: I brought him up to overlook it, and he said, 'O my little daughter, what do you see?' She said, 'I see a mass of black gathered together.' He said, 'That is the cavalry.' She said, 'And I see a man running back and forth amid that mass, coming and going.' He said, 'O my little daughter, that is the one who marshals the ranks, the one who commands the cavalry and goes ahead of it.' Then she said, 'By God, the mass has now spread out.' He said, 'By God, when the cavalry advances, hurry me to my house.' So she brought him down, and the cavalry met him before he reached his house; and around the girl's neck was a silver collar, and a man met him and tore it from her neck. She said: When the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) entered Makkah and entered the mosque, Abu Bakr brought his father to visit him. When the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) saw him, he said, 'Why did you not leave the old man in his house, so that I might come to him there?' Abu Bakr said, 'O Messenger of God, he is more entitled to walk to you than you are to walk to him.' He said: So he seated him in front of him, then wiped his chest, then said to him, 'Submit,' and he submitted. Abu Bakr, may God be pleased with him, brought him in to the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) with his head looking white like a plant, and the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) said, 'Change this, his hair.' Then Abu Bakr stood and took his sister's hand and said, 'I adjure you by God and by Islam, my sister's collar,' but no one answered him. He said, 'O little sister, seek reward with God for your collar.'
