I saw myself on the day of the Tree, with the Prophet ﷺ taking the pledge from the people, while I was lifting a branch from its branches away from his head. We were fourteen hundred. He said, "We did not pledge to him upon death, but we pledged to him that we would not flee."
لقد رأيتني يوم الشجرة، والنبي ﷺ يبايع الناس، وأنا رافع غصنا من أغصانها عن رأسه، ونحن أربع عشرة مائة، قال: لم نبايعه على الموت، ولكن بايعناه على أن لا نفر.
