[4631] 92 - (...) It was narrated that Al-Barâ' said: When the Prophet ﷺ was prevented from reaching the Ka'bah, the people of Makkah made a treaty with him stating that he could enter (Makkah) and stay there for three days, and that he could enter it with his weapons wrapped (in leather bags made for that purpose), meaning the sword and its sheath; he could not take away with him any of its inhabitants and he could not prevent any of those who were with him if they wanted to stay there. He said to 'Alî: "Write down the terms between us: In the Name of Allâh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This is what has been agreed by Muhammad the Messenger of Allâh." The Mushrikûn said to him: If we knew that you were the Messenger of Allâh we would have followed you. Rather write: Muḥammad bin 'Abdullâh. So he told 'Alî to erase it, but 'Alî said: No, by Allâh, I will not erase it. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Show me where it is." So he showed him where it was and he erased it, and he wrote: "bin 'Abdullâh." He stayed there for three days, then on the third day they said to 'Alî: This is the last day stipulated for your companion. Tell him to leave. So he told him about that and he said: "Yes," and left. Ibn Janâb said in his narration, instead of 'we would have followed you,' 'we would have sworn allegiance to you.'
