Abū Bishr Bakr ibn Khalaf narrated to us: Ibn Abī ʿAdī narrated to us, from Dāwūd ibn Abī Hind, from Abū al-ʿĀliyah, from Ibn ʿAbbās, who said: We were with the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, between Mecca and Medina. We passed through a valley, and he said: “What valley is this?” They said: “The Valley of al-Azraq.” He said: “It is as if I can see Moses, peace be upon him”—Dāwūd mentioned something about his long hair that he could not recall—“with his fingers in his ears, raising his voice in response to the call of pilgrimage to God, passing through this valley.” He said: Then we traveled until we came to a mountain pass. He said: “What pass is this?” They said: “The pass of Ḥarshā—or Laft.” He said: “It is as if I can see Jonah on a red she-camel, wearing a woolen cloak, with a halter of palm fiber, passing through this valley and responding to the call of pilgrimage.”
