  "ar": "في أواخر السنة السادسة للهجرة إثر هدنة الحديبية، اصطفى النبي عدداً من أصحابه سفراء بكتاب مختوم بخاتم فضي نقشه «محمد رسول الله» إلى أباطرة وملوك وأمراء العالم المعاصر: كسرى ملك فارس، وهرقل قيصر الروم، والنجاشي ملك الحبشة، والمقوقس عظيم القبط بمصر، والمنذر بن ساوى في البحرين، وهوذة بن علي باليمامة، والحارث الغساني بدمشق، وجيفر وعبد ابني الجلندي في عُمان."
