It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Quraysh made a treaty with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), among them was Suhail bin Amr as well. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): Write "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful." Suhail said: "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful"—we do not know what "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful" is. Write the words that we know, that is, "In Your name, O Allah." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): Write "From Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah." But (Suhail objected to this phrase as well, saying): If we knew that you are the Messenger of Allah, we would have followed you. Write your name and your father's name. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Write "From Muhammad, son of Abdullah." The Quraysh set this condition with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that whoever from among you comes to us, we will not return him, but whoever from among us comes to you, you will return him to us. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! Will you write this clause? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes, indeed, the reality is that whoever from among us goes to them, then Allah, the Exalted, will distance him.
