64. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin 'Abbās رضي الله عنه: Once Allāh's Messenger ﷺ gave a letter to a person and ordered him to go and deliver it to the governor of Bāhrain. (He did so) and the governor of Bāhrain sent it to Khosrau, who read that letter and then tore it to pieces. (The subnarrator (Ibn-Shihāb) thinks that Ibn Al-Musaiyab said that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ invoked Allāh against them (saying), "May Allāh tear them into pieces, and disperse them all totally."

Arabic text

64 - حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " بَعَثَ بِكِتَابِهِ رَجُلًا وَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى عَظِيمِ البَحْرَيْنِ فَدَفَعَهُ عَظِيمُ البَحْرَيْنِ إِلَى كِسْرَى، فَلَمَّا قَرَأَهُ مَزَّقَهُ فَحَسِبْتُ أَنَّ ابْنَ المُسَيِّبِ قَالَ: فَدَعَا عَلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «أَنْ يُمَزَّقُوا كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍ»
