  Narrated Ibn Abbas: The pagans were of two kinds as regards their relationship to the Prophet and the Believers. Some of them were those with whom the Prophet was at war and used to fight against; and they used to fight him; the others were those with whom the Prophet ﷺ made a treaty; and neither did the Prophet ﷺ fight them; nor did they fight him. If a lady from the first group of pagans emigrated towards the Muslims; her hand would not be asked in marriage unless she got the menses and then became clean. When she became clean; it would be lawful for her to get married; and if her husband emigrated too before she got married; then she would be returned to him. If any slave or female slave emigrated from them to the Muslims; then they would be considered free persons not slaves and they would have the same rights as given to other emigrants. The narrator then mentioned about the pagans involved with the Muslims in a treaty; the same as occurs in Mujahid narration. If a male slave or a female slave emigrated from such pagans as had made a treaty with the Muslims; they would not be returned; but their prices would be paid to the pagans.

• Narrated Ibn Abbas: When Abraham had diffe …
  Narrated Ibn Abbas: When Abraham had differences with his wife ; because of her jealousy of Hajar; Ishmael mother ; he took Ishmael and his mother and went away. They had a water-skin with them containing some water; Ishmael mother used to drink water from the water-skin so that her milk would increase for her child. When Abraham reached Mecca; he made her sit under a tree and afterwards returned home. Ishmael mother followed him; and when they reached Kada; she called him from behind; O Abraham! To whom are you leaving us? He replied; I am leaving you to Allah Care. She said; I am satisfied to be with Allah. She returned to her place and started drinking water from the water-skin; and her milk increased for her child. When the water had all been used up; she said to herself; Id better go and look so that I may see somebody. She ascended the Safa mountain and looked; hoping to see somebody; but in vain. When she came down to the valley; she ran till she reached the Marwa mountain. She ran to and fro between the two mountains many times. They she said to herself; id better go and see the state of the child; she went and found it in a state of one on the point of dying. She could not endure to watch it dying and said to herself ; If I go and look; I may find somebody. She went and ascended the Safa mountain and looked for a long while but could not find anybody. Thus she completed seven rounds of running between Safa and Marwa. Again she said to herself ; Id better go back and see the state of the child. But suddenly she heard a voice; and she said to that strange voice; Help us if you can offer any help. Lo! It was Gabriel who had made the voice. Gabriel hit the earth with his heel like this Ibn Abbas hit the earth with his heel to Illustrate it ; and so the water gushed out. Ishmael mother was astonished and started digging. Abu AlQasim i.e. the Prophet said; If she had left the water; flow naturally without her intervention ; it would have been flowing on the surface of the earth. Ishmael mother started drinking from the water and her milk increased for her child. Afterwards some people of the tribe of Jurhum; while passing through the bottom of the valley; saw some birds; and that astonished them; and they said; Birds can only be found at a place where there is water. They sent a messenger who searched the place and found the water; and returned to inform them about it. Then they all went to her and said; O ishmael mother! Will you allow us to be with you or dwell with you ? And thus they stayed there. Later on her boy reached the age of puberty and married a lady from them. Then an idea occurred to Abraham which he disclosed to his wife Sarah ; I want to call on my dependents I left at Mecca. When he went there; he greeted Ishmael wife and said; Where is Ishmael? She replied; He has gone out hunting. Abraham said to her ; When he comes; tell him to change the threshold of his gate. When he came; she told him the same whereupon Ishmael said to her; You are the threshold; so go to your family i.e. you are divorced. Again Abraham thought of visiting his dependents whom he had left at Mecca ; and he told his wife Sarah of his intentions. Abraham came to Ishmael house and asked. Where is Ishmael? Ishmael wife replied; He has gone out hunting; and added; Will you stay for some time and have something to eat and drink? Abraham asked; What is your food and what is your drink? She replied; Our food is meat and our drink is water. He said; O Allah! Bless their meals and their drink. Abu AlQa-sim i.e. Prophet said; Because of Abraham invocation there are blessings in Mecca. Once more Abraham thought of visiting his family he had left at Mecca ; so he told his wife Sarah of his decision. He went and found Ishmael behind the Zamzam well; mending his arrows. He said; O Ishmael; Your Lord has ordered me to build a house for Him. Ishmael said; Obey the order of your Lord. Abraham said; Allah has also ordered me that you should help me therein. Ishmael said; Then I will do. So; both of them rose and Abraham started building the Kaba while Ishmael went on handing him the stones; and both of them were saying; O our Lord ! Accept this service from us; Verily; You are the All-Hearing; the All-Knowing. 2.127. When the building became high and the old man i.e. Abraham could no longer lift the stones to such a high position ; he stood over the stone of AlMaqam and Ishmael carried on handing him the stones; and both of them were saying; O our Lord! Accept this service from us; Verily You are All-Hearing; All-Knowing. 2.127

So when Abu Dhar saw Ali; he followed him; and none of them asked his companion about anything; and when it was dawn; Abu Dhar took his journey food and his water-skin to the Masjid and stayed there all the day long without being perceived by the Prophet; and when it was evening; he came back to his retiring place. Ali passed by him and said; Has the man not known his dwelling place yet? So Ali awakened him and took him with him and none of them spoke to the other about anything. When it was the third day. Ali did the same and Abu Dhar stayed with him. Then Ali said Will you tell me what has brought you here? Abu Dhar said; If you give me a firm promise that you will guide me; then I will tell you. Ali promised him; and he informed Ali about the matter. Ali said; It is true; and he is the Messenger of Allah. Next morning when you get up; accompany me; and if I see any danger for you; I will stop as if to pass water; but if I go on; follow me and enter the place which I will enter. Abu Dhar did so; and followed Ali till he entered the place of the Prophet; and Abu Dhar went in with him; Abu Dhar listened to some of the Prophet talks and embraced Islam on the spot. The Prophet ﷺ said to him; Go back to your people and inform them about it till you receive my order. Abu Dhar said; By Him in Whose Hand my life is; I will proclaim my conversion loudly amongst them i.e. the pagans. So he went out; and when he reached the Masjid; he said as loudly as possible; I bear witness that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah; and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. The People got up and beat him painfully. Then AlAbbas came and knelt over him to protect him and said to the people ; Woe to you! Dont you know that this man belongs to the tribe of Ghifar and your trade to Sham is through their way? So he rescued him from them. Abu Dhar again did the same the next day. They beat him and took vengeance on him and again AlAbbas knelt over him to protect him.

  Narrated Ibn Abbas: When Allah Messenger ﷺ came to Mecca; he refused to enter the Kaba with idols in it. He ordered idols to be taken out. So they were taken out. The people took out the pictures of Abraham and Ishmael holding Azlams in their hands. Allah Messenger ﷺ said; May Allah curse these people. By Allah; both Abraham and Ishmael never did the game of chance with Azlams. Then he entered the Kaba and said Takbir at its corners but did not offer the prayer in it.

  Narrated Ibn Abbas: When Allah Messenger ﷺ and his companions came to Mecca; the pagans circulated the news that a group of people were coming to them and they had been weakened by the Fever of Yathrib Medina. So the Prophet ordered his companions to do Ramal in the first three rounds of Tawaf of the Kaba and to walk between the two corners The Black Stone and Yemenite corner. The Prophet ﷺ did not order them to do Ramal in all the rounds of Tawaf out of pity for them.
