It is related that al-Bara' said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, went on 'umra during Dhu'l-Qa'da, but the people of Makka refused to let him enter Makka until he completed an agreement with them that he would remain there three days. When they wrote the document, they wrote, 'This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, decides.' They said, 'We will not ratify this. If we knew that you were the Messenger of Allah, we would not have prevented you at all. Rather you are Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah' He said, 'I am the Messenger of Allah, and I am Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah.' Then he told 'Ali, 'Rub out "Messenger of Allah".' He said, 'No, by Allah, I will never rub you out.' So the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, took the document, although he could not write well and wrote, 'This is what Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah decides. No weapon will enter Makka except in a sheath. None of its people will go out if he wishes to follow him and he will not prevent any of his Companions who wishes to remain there.' When they entered it and the term was over, they went to 'Ali and said, 'Tell your companion to leave us for the term is over.' So the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, left and they were followed by the daughter of Hamza, calling out, "Uncle! Uncle!' 'Ali met her and took her hand and he said to Fatima, peace be upon her, 'Here is the daughter of your uncle. Carry her.' 'Ali, Zayd and Ja'far quarrelled over her. 'Ali said, 'I am more entitled to her. She is my uncle's daughter.' Ja'far said, 'She is my uncle's daughter and her maternal aunt is married to me.' Zayd said, 'She is the daughter of my brother.' The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, judged that she should go with her maternal aunt and said, 'The maternal aunt is in the position of the mother.' He said to 'Ali, 'You are from me and I am from you.' He said to Ja'far, 'You are like me in character and physique.' He said to Zayd, 'You are our brother and our client.' 'Ali said, 'Won't you marry Hamza's daughter?' He replied, 'She is the daughter of my milk brother.'"
