Musnad Ahmad 295
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَنْبَأَنَا الثَّوْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ كَانَ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا يُفِيضُونَ مِنْ جَمْعٍ حَتَّى يَرَوْا الشَّمْسَ عَلَى ثَبِيرٍ وَكَانُوا يَقُولُونَ أَشْرِقْ ثَبِيرُ كَيْمَا نُغِيرُ فَأَفَاضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ.
‘Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us; al-Thawri informed us, from Abu Ishaq, from ‘Amr ibn Maymun, who said: I heard ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, say: ‘The people of the pre-Islamic period would not depart from Jam‘ until they saw the sun over Thabir. They used to say, “Shine, Thabir, so we may hurry away.” But the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, departed before sunrise.’
