Abu Dawood
Da'if (Al-Albani)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ بِشْرٍ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، يَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏‏ وَاللَّهِ لأَغْزُوَنَّ قُرَيْشًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏"‏ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏"‏ وَاللَّهِ لأَغْزُوَنَّ قُرَيْشًا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏"‏ وَاللَّهِ لأَغْزُوَنَّ قُرَيْشًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ سَكَتَ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏"‏ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ ‏:‏ زَادَ فِيهِ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ قَالَ ‏:‏ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَغْزُهُمْ ‏.‏"
Narrated 'Ikrimah:
The Prophet (ﷺ) as saying: I swear by Allah, I shall fight against the Quraish. The then said: If Allah wills. He again said: I swear by Allah, I shall fight against the Quraish if Allah wills. He again said: I swear by Allah, I shall fight against the Quraish. He then kept silence. Then he said: If Allah wills.

Abu Dawud said: Al-Walid b. Muslim said on the authority of Sharik: He then said: But he did not fight against them.
