77. THE DELEGATION OF BANU RU’AS IBN KILAB
Al-Waqidi related that “a man named ‘Amr Ibn Malik Ibn Qais Ibn Bujaid Ibn Ru’as Ibn Kilab Ibn Rabee‘ah Ibn Amir Ibn Sa‘sa‘ah came to Allah’s Messenger, (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him), accepted Islam, returned to his people and invited them to Allah; however they said:’Not until we do to Banu ‘Uqail exactly what they did to us.’ He mentioned the wars that took place between them and that this same Amr Ibn Malik had killed someone from Banu ‘Uqail, and his hands became tied. I came to Allah’s Messenger, (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him), and the news had reached him and he had said: ‘If he comes to me I will cut loose the fetter of his hands.’ When I came to him, I greeted him but he did not return my greeting and he turned away from me.
I approached him from his right and he turned away. I came to him from his left and still he turned away. I approached directly from his front and I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, the pleasure of the Lord is sought and He grants it, be pleased with me, may Allah be pleased with you (as well).’ Then the Prophet, (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him), said: ‘I am pleased with you’.”
