Abü Sufyân bin Al-Hârith bin 'Abdul-Muttalib and I stayed close to the Messenger of Allah and did not leave him. The Messenger of Allah was riding a white mule of his, that had been given to him by Farwah bin Nufâthah A1-Judhâmi. When the Muslims and the Kuffâr met, the Muslims turned and fled, but the Messenger of Allah spurred his mule towards the Kuffâr. 'Abbâs said: I was holding on to the reins of the mule of the Messenger of Allah checking it so that it did not go too fast, and Abfl Sufyân was holding on to the stirrup of the Messenger of Allah jj. The Messenger of Allah said: "0 'Abbâs, call the people of Al- Samurah."11' 'Abbâs – who was a man with a loud voice – said: I said at the top of my voice: Where are the people of Al-Samurah? He said: By Allah, when they heard °' A1-Samurah: this was the tree beneath which they swore the Bai. Ar-Riçiwân. my voice, they came back like cows coming back to their calves, saying: "Here we are, here we are!" They fought with the Kuffâr, then the call went out to the Ansâr: 0 Ansâr, 0 Ansâr! And the last to be called were Banü Al-Hârith bin Al-Khazraj. They said: 0 Band Al- Hârith bin Al-Khazraj, 0 Banü Al- Hârith bin Al-Khazraj! The Messenger of Allah , seated on his mule, craned his neck to watch the fighting, and the Messenger of Allah said: "Now the battle is raging." Then the Messenger of Allah took some pebbles and flung them at the faces of the Kuffâr, then he said: "They are defeated, by the Lord of Muhammad !" Then I went and looked, and saw that the fighting was as it had been before. He said: By Allah, all he did was throw some pebbles at them. Then their force was spent and they began to retreat.
