English narration

Narrated by عبد الله بن قيس الأشعري

Narrated Abu Burdah: On the authority of his father: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us to proceed to the land of Negus. Mentioning the rest of the tradition he said that Negus said: I bear witness that he is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and it is he about whom Christ son of Mary gave good news. It I were not in the land which I am, I would come to him and carry his shoes.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَعْفَرٍ ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : "

أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نَنْطَلِقَ إِلَى أَرْضِ النَّجَاشِيِّ ، فَذَكَرَ حَدِيثَهُ ، قَالَ النَّجَاشِيُّ : أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَنَّهُ الَّذِي بَشَّرَ بِهِ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ، وَلَوْلَا مَا أَنَا فِيهِ مِنَ الْمُلْكِ ، لَأَتَيْتُهُ حَتَّى أَحْمِلَ نَعْلَيْهِ
