[3] The poet of Hawazin implies Durayd ibn aṣ-Ṣimmah. He wrote this couplet after the death of his brother ‘Abdullāh ibn aṣ-Ṣimmah. Its facts are that ‘Abdullāh along with his brother led an attack of two groups of Banu Jusham and Baru Nasr who were both from Hawazin, and drove away many camels. On return when they intended to rest at Mun‘araji’l-liwã, Durayd said it was not advisable to stay there lest the enemy attacks from behind, but ‘Abdullāh did not agree and stayed there. The result was that as soon as dawn appeared the enemy attacked and killed ‘Abdullāh on the spot. Durayd also received wounds but he slipped away alive, and after this he wrote a few couplets out of which one couplet is this wherein he has referred to the destruction resulting from his advice having been rejected.
