حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ : لَأَعْلَمَنَّ مَا بَقَاءُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِينَا؟، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنِّي أَرَاهُمْ قَدْ آذَوْكَ وَآذَاكَ غُبَارُهُمْ، فَلَوِ اتَّخَذْتَ عَرِيشًا تُكَلِّمُهُمْ مِنْهُ؟، فَقَالَ :" لَا أَزَالُ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِهِمْ يَطَئُونَ عَقِبِي، وَيُنَازِعُونِي رِدَائِي حَتَّى يَكُونَ اللَّهُ هُوَ الَّذِي يُرِيحُنِي مِنْهُمْ "، قَالَ : فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّ بَقَاءَهُ فِينَا قَلِيلٌ

Suleiman bin Harb told us, Hammad bin Zaid told us, on the authority of Ayoub, on the authority of Ikrimah, he said: Al-Abbas, may God be pleased with him, said: Who knows how long the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, will remain among us? He said: O Messenger of God, I see that they have harmed you and their dust has harmed you. Did you take a pergola from which you could speak to them? He said: “I will continue to have them trample my heels and dispute with me over my cloak until God is the one who comforts me.” “From them,” he said: “I knew that his stay among us would be short.”
