Additional quotes by Ibn Ishaq
At this time," reports Ibn Ishãq, "the people of Najrãn followed the religion of the Arabs worshipping a great palm-tree. Every year they had a festival when they hung on the tree any fine garment they could find and women's jewels. Then they sallied out and devoted the day to it." Faymiyûn reported to the nobles that the palm-tree "could neither help nor hurt" and that "if he were to curse the tree in the name of God, He would destroy it, for He was God Alone without companion." The nobles agreed. Faymiyûn "invoked God against the tree and God sent a wind against it which tore it from its roots and cast it on the ground." The miracle helped the people of Najran to adopt the "law of Îsã b. Maryam" in which Faymiyûn "instructed them."
