English translation
[4629] 90 - (1783) Al-Barâ' bin 'Âzib said: 'Alî bin Abî Tâlib wrote down the truce between the Prophet ﷺ and the idolaters on the day of Al-Hudaibiyah. He wrote: "This is what has been agreed by Muḥammad the Messenger of Allâh." They (the Kuffâr of Makkah) said: Do not write, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, for if we knew that you were the Messenger of Allâh we would not have fought you. The Prophet ﷺ said to 'Alî: "Erase it." He said: I am not the one who will erase it. So the Prophet ﷺ erased it with his hand. And among the things that they stipulated was that they (the Muslims) would enter Makkah and stay there for three days, and they would not enter with weapons, except weapons that were wrapped (in leather bags made for that purpose).
