00:00:00,179 --> 00:00:07,759
Al-Asma'i said, as in Ibn Rashid al-Fihri
al-Sabti's Travels, Part 3, p. 288.

2
00:00:08,439 --> 00:00:11,539
Al-Asma'i said: I went on Hajj
to the Sacred House of Allah ﷻ.

3
00:00:12,099 --> 00:00:17,959
A Bedouin's litter brushed mine,
so I cursed and beat him, and he bore it.

4
00:00:19,100 --> 00:00:21,059
I reached the Sacred House of Allah ﷻ.

5
00:00:21,479 --> 00:00:25,099
There I saw the Bedouin
clinging to the Kaaba's covering.

6
00:00:26,500 --> 00:00:34,319
"My Lord, if You have forgiven me,
then forgive whoever cursed and beat me."

7
00:00:36,279 --> 00:00:37,719
"O Bedouin!"

8
00:00:38,540 --> 00:00:43,299
Recognizing him, I said:

9
00:00:43,383 --> 00:00:46,659
"We beat and reviled you,
yet you pray for us?"

10
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:51,000
He glanced at me, then recited:

11
00:00:51,599 --> 00:00:53,819
"The noble man is not angered
by the lowly."

12
00:00:54,699 --> 00:00:57,199
"Nor is the noble man angered
by the base."

13
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,959
"If a vile man tries hard to insult me,
I say, 'Give me more. The honor is mine.'"
