5-25 Ahmad ibn al-Hassan al-Qat’tan narrated that Abul Qasim Abdul Rahman ibn Muhammad al-Hassani quoted Abul Abbas Muhammad ibn Ali al-Khorasani, on the authority of Abu Sa’id Sahl ibn Salih al-Ab’basi on theauthority of his father and Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman al-E’lee , on the authority of Musa ibn Ja’far ibn Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Hussein ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib, on the authority of his father Muhammad ibn Ali, on the authority of his father Ali ibn al-Hussein (MGB), on the authority of his father Al-Hussein ibn Ali (MGB) that in response to a question asked by a Syrian Jew who was one of the learned men of the Syrian Jews, the Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali (MGB) told him, “Regarding those who make fun of us it is enough to note what the Honorable the Exalted God says, ‘For sufficient are We unto thee against those who scoff’ God killed all five of them on one day. One day Al-Walid ibn Muqayrih passed a man from the Khaza’eh clan who had spread his arrows on the ground and was sharpening them. One of the arrows flew up, hit him, cut his jugular vein and blood ran down his neck until he died, while he was yelling ‘Muhammad’s God killed me!’ Al-As ibn Va’el al-Sahmi went out of his house to Arafat in order to fulfill his needs. A pebble rolled under his foot and he fell down. He died while he was yelling ‘Muhammad’s God killed me!’ Al-Aswad ibn Abdeh Yaqouth went out with his servant to meet his son Zameh. He rested under the shadow of a tree which was on the slope of a hill. Gabriel (MGB) came down, grabbed his head and beat it against the tree. Then he told his servant, ‘Save me from this man!’ His servant replied, ‘I do not see anyone there. You are beating your head on the tree yourself.’ He died while he was yelling ‘Muhammad’s God killed me!’The compiler of the book - may God be pleased with him - said, ‘In another tradition it has been narrated that the Prophet (MGB) had cursed Al-Aswad (ibn Abdeh Yaqouth) and had wished that God make him blind and kill his child. On the day when he reached that place, Gabriel (MGB) touched him with a green leaf which made him blind. He survived until the Honorable the Exalted God took away the life of his son in the Battle of Badr and then he himself died.’And Al-Harith ibn al-Tala’talat left his house when a hot wind was blowing. The wind blew upon him until he became like an Ethiopian man since he had become very black-faced. When he returned home, he was asked, ‘Who are you?’ He said, ‘I am Al-Harith.’ However, they did not believe him. They became so angry with him that they killed him. He died while he was yelling ‘Muhammad’s God killed me!’Al-Aswad ibn Abdul Mutalib ate a salty fish. He became very thirsty. He drank a lot of water and his stomach swelled up. He died while he was yelling ‘Muhammad’s God killed me!’ All this happened at the same time. That was because they had gone to God’s Prophet (MGB) and said, ‘If youput aside what you claim until noon, it is fine. If not we will kill you.’ The Prophet (MGB) returned home while he was sad and had locked himself up. At that time, Gabriel (MGB) descended to him and said, ‘O Muhammad! God greets you and says ‘Openly attend to what you have been ordered to do.’ This means that he (MGB) should publicly announce his call to the people of Mecca and ‘turn away from the atheists.’ The Prophet (MGB) had said, ‘O Gabriel! How should I deal with those who make fun of me and those who are my enemies?’ Gabriel (MGB) had replied, ‘The Exalted God says, ‘For sufficient are We unto thee against those who scoff. ’’ Then the Prophet (MGB) said, ‘They were all with me recently and threatened me.’ Gabriel (MGB) said, ‘We will get rid of them!’ It was then that the Prophet (MGB) openly invited people to Islam.”This is a long narration. I have already included as much of it as necessary here. I have presented the full tradition at the end of the fourth section of my book Kitab al-Nabuwat.
Ahmad ibn al-Hasan al-Qattan nous a informés, il a dit: Abu al-Qasim Abd al-Rahman ibn Muhammad al-Hasani nous a informés, il a dit: Abu al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ali al-Khorasani nous a informés, il a dit: Abu Saeed Sahl ibn Salih al-Abbasi, de son père, et Ibrahim ibn Abd al-Rahman al-Ily a dit: Musa ibn Ja'far ibn Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Hussein ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib nous a informés, il a dit: Mon père Muhammad ibn Ali m'a informé, il a dit: Mon père Ali ibn al-Hussein m'a informé, il a dit: Mon père al-Hussein ibn Ali, que la paix soit sur eux, a dit: Le Commandeur des croyants, que la paix soit sur lui, a dit à un Juif parmi les Juifs de Sham et à leurs prêtres en réponse à leurs questions. Quant aux moqueurs, Allah, exalté soit-Il, lui dit: "Nous te suffirons contre les moqueurs." Alors Allah a tué cinq d'entre eux, chacun d'eux est mort d'une mort différente en un seul jour: Walid ibn al-Mughira passa près d'un homme de la tribu de Khazaa'ah qui l'avait maudit sur le chemin, une écharde de ce dernier le blessa à l'œil, le rendant aveugle, puis il mourut en disant: "Le Seigneur de Muhammad m'a tué." As'as ibn Wa'il al-Sahmi sortit pour une affaire et fut piqué par un serpent, il tomba et fut coupé morceau par morceau, puis mourut en disant: "Le Seigneur de Muhammad m'a tué." Al-Aswad ibn Abd Yaghuth sortit pour rencontrer son fils Zam'ah et un garçon avec lui, ils s'abritèrent sous un arbre à cause de la chaleur, Gabriel vint à lui, prit sa tête et la frappa contre l'arbre, il dit au garçon: "Empêche-le de me faire du mal." Le garçon répondit: "Je ne vois personne te faisant du mal, sauf toi-même." Alors il le tua en disant: "Le Seigneur de Muhammad m'a tué." L'auteur de ce livre, qu'Allah soit satisfait de lui, a dit: Et il est rapporté dans un autre récit concernant al-Aswad une autre version selon laquelle le Prophète, que la paix et les bénédictions d'Allah soient sur lui, l'avait maudit en le rendant aveugle et en maudissant son fils. Le jour même, il vint jusqu'à un arbre et Gabriel vint avec une feuille verte, frappa son visage avec, le rendant aveugle, et Allah le rendit boiteux le jour de Badr, puis il mourut. Quant à al-Harith ibn al-Talatilah, il sortit de sa maison sous l'effet de la chaleur, se rendit en Abyssinie, puis revint vers sa famille en disant: "Je suis al-Harith." Ils se mirent en colère contre lui et le tuèrent, et il dit: "Le Seigneur de Muhammad m'a tué." Quant à al-Aswad ibn al-Mutalib, il mangea un poisson salé et fut pris de grande soif, il continua à boire de l'eau jusqu'à ce que son ventre se fendît et il mourut en disant: "Le Seigneur de Muhammad m'a tué." Tout cela en une seule heure, car ils étaient devant le Messager d'Allah, que la paix et les bénédictions d'Allah soient sur lui, et lui dirent: "Ô Muhammad, nous attendons de toi jusqu'à midi, si tu te rétractes de ce que tu as dit, sinon nous te tuerons." Le Prophète, que la paix et les bénédictions d'Allah soient sur lui, entra dans sa maison et ferma la porte sur lui à cause de leurs paroles. Gabriel vint le voir à ce moment-là et lui dit: "Ô Muhammad, la paix soit sur
