حَدَّثَنِي عَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمَعْقِرِيُّ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْيَمَامِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زُمَيْلٍ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ لَا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى أَبِي سُفْيَانَ وَلَا يُقَاعِدُونَهُ، فَقَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ثَلَاثٌ أَعْطِنِيهِنَّ، قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» قَالَ: عِنْدِي أَحْسَنُ الْعَرَبِ وَأَجْمَلُهُ، أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، أُزَوِّجُكَهَا، قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» قَالَ: وَمُعَاوِيَةُ، تَجْعَلُهُ كَاتِبًا بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ، قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» قَالَ: وَتُؤَمِّرُنِي حَتَّى أُقَاتِلَ الْكُفَّارَ، كَمَا كُنْتُ أُقَاتِلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» قَالَ أَبُو زُمَيْلٍ: وَلَوْلَا أَنَّهُ طَلَبَ ذَلِكَ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أَعْطَاهُ ذَلِكَ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُسْأَلُ شَيْئًا إِلَّا قَالَ: «نَعَمْ»
عکرمہ نے کہا : ہمیں ابو زمیل نے حدیث بیان کی ، انھوں نے کہا : مجھے حضرت ابن عباس رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ نے حدیث بیان کی ، کہا : مسلمان نہ حضرت ابو سفیان رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے بات کرتے تھے نہ ان کے ساتھ بیٹھتے اٹھتے تھے ۔ اس پر انھوں نے نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے عرض کی : اللہ کے نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم !آپ مجھے تین چیزیں عطا فر ما دیجیے ۔ ( تین چیزوں کے بارے میں میری درخواست قبول فرما لیجیے ۔ ) آپ نے جواب دیا : " ہاں ۔ " کہا میری بیٹی ام حبیبہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا عرب کی سب سے زیادہ حسین و جمیل خاتون ہے میں اسے آپ کی زوجیت میں دیتا ہوں ۔ آپ نے فر مایا : " ہاں ۔ " کہا : اور معاویہ ( میرابیٹا ) آپ اسے اپنے پاس حاضر رہنے والا کا تب بنا دیجیے ۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فر ما یا : " ہاں ۔ " پھر کہا : آپ مجھے کسی دستے کا امیر ( بھی ) مقرر فرمائیں تا کہ جس طرح میں مسلمانوں کے خلاف لڑتا تھا اسی طرح کافروں کے خلا ف بھی جنگ کروں ۔ آپ نے فرمایا : " ہاں ۔ " ابو زمیل نے کہا : اگر انھوں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے ان باتوں کا مطالبہ نہ کیا ہو تا تو آپ ( از خود ) انھیں یہ سب کچھ عطا نہ فر ما تے کیونکہ آپ سے کبھی کو ئی چیز نہیں مانگی جا تی تھی مگر آپ ( اس کے جواب میں ) " ہاں " کہتے تھے ۔
Ibn Abbas reported that the Muslims neither looked to Abu Sufyan (with respect) nor did they sit in his company. he (Abu Sufyan) said to Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ): Allah's Apostle, confer upon me three things. He replied in the affirmative. He (further) said: I have with me the most handsome and the best (woman) Umm Habiba, daughter of Abu Sufyan; marry her, whereupon he said: Yes. And he again said: Accept Mu'awiya to serve as your scribe. He said: Yes. He again said: Make me the commander (of the Muslim army) so that I should fight against the unbelievers as I fought against the Muslims. He said: Yes. Abu Zumnail said: If he had not asked for these three things from Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), he would have never conferred them upon him, for it was (his habit) to accede to everybody's (earnest) request
