Subaba came from Mecca as a Muslim, so he professed, saying 'I come to you as a Muslim seeking the bloodwit for my brother who we killed in error.' The apostle ordered that he should have the bloodwit for his brother Hisham and he stopped a short while with the apostle. Then he attacked his brother's slayer and killed him and went off to Mecca an apostate. He spoke the following lines: | ||
:It eased my soul that he died in the lowland, | |||
:The blood of his neck veins dyeing his garments. | |||
:Before I killed him I was beset by cares | |||
:Which prevented me from seeking my couch. | |||
:I gave free vent to my vengeance | |||
:And was the first to return to the idols. | |||
:I avenged Fihr on him and laid his bloodwit | |||
:On the chiefs of B. aI-Najjar, the lords of Fari'.<br> | |||
He also said:<br> | |||
:I fetched him a stroke in vengeance | |||
:Which drew blood that ebbed and flowed. | |||
:I said as the wrinkles of death covered him | |||
:'You can't be safe from B. Bakr when they are wronged'.}} | |||
