\nNarrated Hisham's father:\n \n\nWhen Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) set out (towards Mecca) during the year of the Conquest (of Mecca) and this \nnews reached (the infidels of Quraish), Abu Sufyan, Hakim bin Hizam and Budail bin Warqa came \nout to gather information about Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , They proceeded on their way till they reached a place \ncalled Marr-az-Zahran (which is near Mecca). Behold! There they saw many fires as if they were the \nfires of `Arafat. Abu Sufyan said, "What is this? It looked like the fires of `Arafat." Budail bin Warqa' \nsaid, "Banu `Amr are less in number than that." Some of the guards of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw them and \ntook them over, caught them and brought them to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). Abu Sufyan embraced Islam. \nWhen the Prophet (ﷺ) proceeded, he said to Al-Abbas, "Keep Abu Sufyan standing at the top of the \nmountain so that he would look at the Muslims. So Al-`Abbas kept him standing (at that place) and \nthe tribes with the Prophet (ﷺ) started passing in front of Abu Sufyan in military batches. A batch passed \nand Abu Sufyan said, "O `Abbas Who are these?" `Abbas said, "They are (Banu) Ghifar." Abu Sufyan \nsaid, I have got nothing to do with Ghifar." Then (a batch of the tribe of) Juhaina passed by and he \nsaid similarly as above. Then (a batch of the tribe of) Sa`d bin Huzaim passed by and he said similarly \nas above. then (Banu) Sulaim passed by and he said similarly as above. Then came a batch, the like of \nwhich Abu Sufyan had not seen. He said, "Who are these?" `Abbas said, "They are the Ansar headed \nby Sa`d bin Ubada, the one holding the flag." Sa`d bin Ubada said, "O Abu Sufyan! Today is the day \nof a great battle and today (what is prohibited in) the Ka`ba will be permissible." Abu Sufyan said., "O \n`Abbas! How excellent the day of destruction is! "Then came another batch (of warriors) which was \nthe smallest of all the batches, and in it there was Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and his companions and the flag of \nthe Prophet (ﷺ) was carried by Az-Zubair bin Al Awwam. When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) passed by Abu Sufyan, \nthe latter said, (to the Prophet), "Do you know what Sa`d bin 'Ubada said?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What \ndid he say?" Abu Sufyan said, "He said so-and-so." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Sa`d told a lie, but today Allah \nwill give superiority to the Ka`ba and today the Ka`ba will be covered with a (cloth) covering." \nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) ordered that his flag be fixed at Al-Hajun. \nNarrated `Urwa: Nafi` bin Jubair bin Mut`im said, "I heard Al-Abbas saying to Az-Zubair bin Al- \n`Awwam, 'O Abu `Abdullah ! Did Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) order you to fix the flag here?' " Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) \nordered Khalid bin Al-Walid to enter Mecca from its upper part from Ka'da while the Prophet (ﷺ) himself \nentered from Kuda.
