It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khuraym bin Aws bin Harithah bin Lam (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I emigrated to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on his return from the Battle of Tabuk and accepted Islam. Then I heard Sayyiduna al-Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him) say: O Messenger of Allah, I wish to compose praise of you. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Say it, may Allah keep your mouth sound." At this al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said (in verse): "Before this (coming into the world) you were pure in the shades and in that place of safekeeping when leaves were being stitched together (upon Adam and Eve in Paradise). Then you descended to the earth, being at that time neither a human, nor a lump of flesh, nor a clot of blood. Rather you were a drop of seed that rode in the Ark, while the flood had bridled Nasr (the idol) and its worshippers. You were moved from one loin to another womb; whenever one world (generation) passed, another layer appeared. Until your eminent house attained that height of (the tribe of) Khindif beneath which were many ranks. And when you were born, the earth shone and the horizon was lit by your light. So we are travelling in that radiance, that light, and the paths of guidance." These Bedouin (desert-dwelling) narrators are alone in narrating this hadith from their fathers, and narrators like them are not declared weak.
