other than h is father. He said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Who is my father?” The Prophet replied, “Your
father is Hudhaifa.” And then ‘Umar got up and said, “We accept Allah as our Lord, and Islam as
(our) religion, and Muhammad as (our) Apostle; and we seek refuge with Allah from the afflictions.”

being heavily in debt and from being overpowered by other men.” I kept on serving him till he re –
turned from (the battle of) Khaibar. He then brought Safiya, the daughter of Huyay whom he had got
(from the booty). I saw him making a kind of cushion with a cloak or a garment for her. He then let
her ride behind him. When we reached a place called As-Sahba’, he prepared (a special meal called)
Hais, and asked me to invite the men who (came and) ate, and that was the marriage banquet given
on the consummation of his marriage to her. Then he proceeded till the mountain of Uhud appeared,
whereupon he said, “This mountain loves us and we love it.” When he approached Medina, he said,
“O Allah! I make the land between its (i.e., Medina’s) two mountains a sanctuary, as the prophet Ab –
raham made Mecca a sanctuary. O Allah! Bless them (the people of Medina) in their Mudd and the
Sa’ (units of measuring).”
