حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ وَهُوَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَقِيلٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ رُبَّمَا ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ الشَّاعِرِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَسْتَسْقِي فَمَا يَنْزِلُ حَتَّى يَجِيشَ كُلُّ مِيزَابٍ وَأَذْكُرُ قَوْلَ الشَّاعِرِ وَأَبْيَضَ يُسْتَسْقَى الْغَمَامُ بِوَجْهِهِ ثِمَالُ الْيَتَامَى عِصْمَةٌ لِلْأَرَامِلِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5673
Saalim narrated that his father said: Sometimes I remember the words of the poet when I was looking at the face of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) on the m inbar as he was praying for rain. He did not Come down until all the waterspouts were overflowing. And I remember what the poet said: He has a white complexion and rain is sought by virtue of his countenance. He cares for the orphans, and protects the widows. These are the words of Abu Taalib.
