Arabic text

حسن بن محبوب عن علي بن رئاب عن أبي عبيدة الحذاء عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: لما كان فتح يوم مكة قام رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله في الناس خطيبا فحمد الله وأثنى عليه ثم قال: أيها الناس ليبلغ الشاهد الغائب ان الله تبارك وتعالى قد اذهب عنكم بالاسلام نخوة الجاهلية والتفاخر بآبائها وعشائرها أيها الناس انكم من آدم وآدم من طين ألا وإن خيركم عند الله وأكرمكم عليه اليوم أتقاكم وأطوعكم له ألا وان العربية ليست بأب والد ولكنها لسان ناطق فمن طعن بينكم وعلم أنه يبلغه رضوان الله حسبه الا وان كل دم أو مظلمة أو أحنة كانت في الجاهلية فهي تظل تحت قدمي إلى يوم القيامة.

Translation

3.Al-Ḥasan ibn Maḥbūb narrated from ʿAlī ibn Riʾāb, from Abū ʿUbaydah al-Ḥadhdhāʾ, from Abū Jaʿfar (a) who said, “On the day of the conquest of Makkah, the Messenger of Allah (ṣ) stood up among the people and gave a sermon. He praised Allah and glorified Him, then he said, ‘O People, let the one who is present convey [this message] to the one who is absent: Verily Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, has removed from you, through Islam, the haughtiness of the Age of Ignorance and the mutual boasting about forefathers and clans [that was prevalent] in it. O people, verily you are [all] from Ādam and Ādam was [created] from clay. Behold, verily the best of you in the sight of Allah and the noblest of you before Him on this day are those who are most Godwary and most submissive to Him. Know that being Arab is not [defined] through parentage; rather, it is a language that is spoken. So whoever is reviled among you [for being of a different race] and knows that it (his faith) will make him attain the pleasure of Allah, that is sufficient for him. Know that verily all the blood [that was shed], or the injustice [suffered], or the malice [borne] during the Age of Ignorance will remain under my feet [discarded henceforth] until the Day of Judgment.’”
