  "en": "Hassan ibn Thabit's answer to al-Zibriqan ibn Badr in the Banu Tamim contest; Hassan relates that he was summoned while absent and composed lines on the way, then answered in the same vein. It praises Quraysh and the Ansar for the sunna they established, their generosity, the chastity Revelation mentions, and their valour. Ibn Hisham gives one verse in Abu Zayd's reading; the editors note the opening lines belong to a fourteen-verse qasida."

They are a people who, when they fight, harm their enemy, and when they benefit their allies, they benefit them; their nature among them is not an innovation. {cite:ibn-hisham-saqqa 4/210} He then describes them as the foremost, whom every foremost person follows; they are not stingy towards a neighbour; they are chaste, and their chastity is mentioned in revelation; they do not creep up on their enemy in secret; when war reaches them they are named, lions who do not boast when they overcome their enemy and do not panic when they are struck. {cite:ibn-hisham-saqqa 4/210} He ends by saying that whoever fights them wades into evil, and that the Messenger of God honours their followers; he offers them his praise with a heart supported by a tongue; they are the best of the living in earnest and in jest. {cite:ibn-hisham-saqqa 4/211}\n\nOne of its lines says that the Messenger of God honours those who follow them when desires and factions differ. {cite:ibn-hisham-saqqa 4/211}"
