عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ الثَّقَفِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ:
بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَرِيَّةً عَيْنًا لَهُ وَأَمَّرَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَاصِمَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ وَهُوَ جَدُّ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُمَرَ فَانْطَلَقُوا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِبَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ بَيْنَ عُسْفَانَ وَمَكَّةَ نُزُولًا، فَذُكِرُوا لِحَيٍّ مِنْ هُذَيْلٍ يُقَالُ لَهُمْ بَنُو لِحْيَانَ فَتَبِعُوهُمْ بِقَرِيبٍ مِنْ مِائَةِ رَجُلٍ رَامٍ حَتَّى رَأَوْا آثَارَهُمْ، حَتَّى نَزَلُوا مَنْزِلًا يَرَوْنَهُ، فَوَجَدُوا فِيهِ نَوَى تَمْرٍ يَرَوْنَهُ مِنْ تَمْرِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَقَالُوا: هَذَا مِنْ تَمْرِ يَثْرِبَ فَاتَّبَعُوا آثَارَهُمْ حَتَّى لَحِقُوهُمْ، فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّهُمْ عَاصِمُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَأَصْحَابُهُ، لَجَأُوا إِلَى فَدْفَدٍ، وَجَاءَ الْقَوْمُ فَأَحَاطُوا بِهِمْ فَقَالُوا: لَكُمُ الْعَهْدُ وَالْمِيثَاقُ، إِنْ نَزَلْتُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا نَقْتُلُ مِنْكُمْ رَجُلًا فَقَالَ عَاصِمُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَا أَنْزِلُ فِي ذِمَّةِ كَافِرٍ، اللَّهُمَّ أَخْبِرْ عَنَّا رَسُولَكَ قَالَ: فَقَاتَلُوهُمْ حَتَّى قَتَلُوا عَاصِمًا فِي سَبْعَةِ نَفَرٍ وَبَقِيَ خُبَيْبُ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ، وَزَيْدُ بْنُ دَثِنَةَ، وَرَجُلٌ آخَرَ فَأَعْطَوْهُمُ الْعَهْدَ وَالْمِيثَاقَ إِنْ نَزَلُوا إِلَيْهِمْ فَنَزَلُوا إِلَيْهِمْ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَمْكَنُوا مِنْهُمْ حَلُّوا أَوْتَارَ قِسِيِّهِمْ فَرَبَطُوهُمْ بِهَا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ الثَّالِثُ الَّذِي كَانَ مَعَهُمَا: هَذَا أَوَّلُ الْغَدْرِ، فَأَبَى أَنْ يَصْحَبَهُمْ فَجَرُّوهُ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَتْبَعَهُمْ وَقَالَ: لِي فِي هَؤُلَاءِ أُسْوَةٌ، فَضَرَبُوا عُنُقَهُ، وَانْطَلَقُوا بِخُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ، وَزَيْدِ بْنِ دَثِنَةَ، حَتَّى بَاعُوهُمَا بِمَكَّةَ فَاشْتَرَى خُبَيْبًا بَنُو الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ، وَكَانَ هُوَ قَتَلَ الْحَارِثَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ فَمَكَثَ عِنْدَهُمْ أَسِيرًا حَتَّى إِذَا أَجْمَعُوا عَلَى قَتْلِهُ، اسْتَعَارَ مُوسًى مِنْ إِحْدَى بَنَاتِ الْحَارِثِ لِيَسْتَحِدَّ بِهَا، فَأَعَارَتْهُ قَالَتْ: فَغَفَلْتُ عَنْ صَبِيٍّ لِي فَدَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى أَتَاهُ قَالَتْ: فَأَخَذَهُ فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُ فَزِعْتُ فَزَعًا عَرَفَهُ فِيَّ، وَالْمُوسَى بِيَدِهِ قَالَ: أَتَخْشَيْنَ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهُ ؟ مَا كُنْتُ لِأَنْ أَفْعَلَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ قَالَ: فَكَانَتْ تَقُولُ: مَا رَأَيْتُ أَسِيرًا خَيْرًا مِنْ خُبَيْبٍ، لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ قِطْفِ عِنَبٍ، وَمَا بِمَكَّةَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثَمَرَةٌ، وَإِنَّهُ لَمُوثَقٌ فِي الْحَدِيدِ، وَمَا كَانَ إِلَّا رِزْقٌ رَزَقَهُ اللهُ إِيَّاهُ، ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا بِهِ مِنَ الْحَرَمِ لِيَقْتُلُوهُ فَقَالَ: دَعُونِي أُصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: لَوْلَا أَنْ تَرَوْا أَنَّ مَا بِي جَزَعٌ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ، لَزِدْتُ، فَكَانَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ سَنَّ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ عِنْدَ الْقَتْلِ هُوَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ أَحْصِهِمْ عَدَدًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: وَلَسْتُ أُبَالِي عَلَى أَيِّ شِقٍّ كَانَ لِلهِ مَصْرَعِي وَذَلِكَ فِي ذَاتِ الْإِلَهِ وَإِنْ يَشَأْ يُبَارِكْ عَلَى أَوْصَالِ شِلْوٍ ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَيْهِ عُقْبَةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ فَقَتَلَهُ، قَالَ: وَبَعَثَ قُرَيْشٌ إِلَى عَاصِمٍ لِيُؤْتَوْا بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ يَعْرِفُونَهُ، وَكَانَ قَتَلَ عَظِيمًا مِنْ عُظَمَائِهِمْ، فَبَعَثَ اللهُ مِثْلَ الظُّلَّةِ مِنَ الدَّبْرِ فَحَمَتْهُ مِنْ رُسُلِهِمْ، فَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا عَلَى شَيْءٍ مِنْهُ
Translation
✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ sent a company as his reconnaissance, and he appointed 'Asim b. Thabit over them, who is the grandfather of 'Asim b. 'Umar. They set out until they were on part of the road between 'Usfan and Makkah, encamped. They were mentioned to a clan of Hudhayl called Banu Lihyan, who pursued them with nearly a hundred archers until they saw their tracks, until they stopped at a place where they could see them. They found date stones in it, which they saw were from the dates of Madinah. They said, 'This is from the dates of Yathrib.' They followed their tracks until they caught up with them. When 'Asim b. Thabit and his companions sensed them, they took refuge on a hill. The people came and surrounded them and said, 'You have our covenant and pact: if you come down to us, we will not kill any man among you.' 'Asim b. Thabit said, 'As for me, I will not descend under the protection of a disbeliever. O God, inform Your Messenger about us.' He said: They fought them until they killed 'Asim along with seven men. Khubayb b. 'Adi, Zayd b. Dathinah, and another man remained. They gave them the covenant and pact if they came down to them, so they came down to them. When they had them in their power, they untied the strings of their bows and bound them with them. The third man who was with them said, 'This is the first act of treachery.' He refused to accompany them, so they dragged him, but he refused to follow them and said, 'I have an example in these.' They struck his neck. They went off with Khubayb b. 'Adi and Zayd b. Dathinah until they sold them in Makkah. Banu al-Harith b. 'Amir b. Nawfal purchased Khubayb, for he had killed al-Harith on the day of Badr. He remained with them as a captive, and when they resolved to kill him, he borrowed a razor from one of the daughters of al-Harith to shave with. She lent it to him. She said: I was heedless of a young son of mine, and he crept to him until he came to him. She said: He took him and placed him on his thigh. When I saw him, I was terrified, and he recognized my fear while the razor was in his hand. He said, 'Do you fear that I will kill him? I would not do that, God willing.' She said: She used to say, 'I have never seen a captive better than Khubayb. I saw him eating from a bunch of grapes, and there was no fruit in Makkah that day, and he was bound in iron. It was nothing but provision that God provided for him.' Then they brought him out of the sanctuary to kill him. He said, 'Let me pray two rak'ahs.' He prayed two rak'ahs, then said, 'Were it not that you would think that what is in me is fear of death, I would add more.' He was the first to institute two rak'ahs at execution. Then he said, 'O God, count them by number.' Then he said: 'I care not on which side for God my fall may be, and that is in the essence of God, and if He wills He blesses the joints of a severed body.' Then 'Uqbah b. al-Harith stood over him and killed him. He said: Quraysh sent to 'Asim to bring something of his body by which to recognize him, for he had killed a great one of their great ones. God sent something like a cloud of hornets, and it protected him from their messengers, so they could not get anything of him.
