حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ، عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ:
ذُكِرَ رَجُلٌ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَهُ نِكَايَةٌ فِي الْعَدُوِّ وَاجْتِهَادٌ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: لَا أَعْرِفُ هَذَا، قَالَ: بَلْ نَعْتُهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، قَالَ: مَا أَعْرِفُهُ، فَبَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ طَلَعَ الرَّجُلُ، فَقَالَ: هُوَ هَذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: مَا كُنْتُ أَعْرِفُ هَذَا، هَذَا أَوَّلُ قَرْنٍ رَأَيْتُهُ فِي أُمَّتِي، إِنَّ فِيهِ لَسَفْعَةً مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، فَلَمَّا دَنَا الرَّجُلُ سَلَّمَ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: أَنْشُدُكَ بِاللهِ هَلْ حَدَّثْتَ نَفْسَكَ حِينَ طَلَعْتَ عَلَيْنَا أَنْ لَيْسَ فِي الْقَوْمِ أَحَدٌ أَفْضَلَ مِنْكَ ؟ قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّى، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ: قُمْ فَاقْتُلْهُ، فَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَوَجَدَهُ يُصَلِّي، فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي نَفْسِهِ: إِنَّ لِلصَّلَاةِ حُرْمَةً وَحَقًّا، وَلَوْ أَنِّي اسْتَأْمَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، فَجَاءَ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: أَقَتَلْتَهُ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، رَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّي، وَرَأَيْتُ لِلصَّلَاةِ حُرْمَةً وَحَقًّا، وَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهُ قَتَلْتُهُ، قَالَ: لَسْتَ بِصَاحِبِهِ، اذْهَبْ أَنْتَ يَا عُمَرُ فَاقْتُلْهُ، فَدَخَلَ عُمَرُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا هُوَ سَاجِدٌ، فَانْتَظَرَهُ طَوِيلًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ فِي نَفْسِهِ: إِنَّ لِلسُّجُودِ حَقًّا، وَلَوْ أَنِّي اسْتَأْمَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَدِ أَسْتَأْمَرَهُ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنِّي، فَجَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: أَقَتَلْتَهُ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، رَأَيْتُهُ سَاجِدًا، وَرَأَيْتُ لِلسُّجُودِ حَقًّا، وَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهُ قَتَلْتُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: لَسْتَ بِصَاحِبِهِ، قُمْ يَا عَلِيُّ أَنْتَ صَاحِبُهُ إِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ، فَدَخَلَ فَوَجَدَهُ قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَرَجَعَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: أَقَتَلْتَهُ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: لَوْ قُتِلَ الْيَوْمَ مَا اخْتَلَفَ رَجُلَانِ مِنْ أُمَّتِي حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ الدَّجَّالُ. ثُمَّ حَدَّثَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْأُمَمِ، فَقَالَ: تَفَرَّقَتْ أُمَّةُ مُوسَى عَلَى إِحْدَى وَسَبْعِينَ مِلَّةً، سَبْعُونَ مِنْهَا فِي النَّارِ وَوَاحِدَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، وَتَفَرَّقَتْ أُمَّةُ عِيسَى عَلَى ثِنْتَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ مِلَّةً، إِحْدَى وَسَبْعُونَ مِنْهَا فِي النَّارِ وَوَاحِدَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: وَتَعْلُوا أُمَّتِي عَلَى الْفِرْقَتَيْنِ جَمِيعًا بِمِلَّةٍ، اثْنَتَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ فِي النَّارِ وَوَاحِدَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ. قَالُوا: مَنْ هُمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: الْجَمَاعَاتُ. قَالَ يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، وَكَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ إِذَا حَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تَلَا فِيهِ قُرْآنًا: وَمِنْ قَوْمِ مُوسَى أُمَّةٌ يَهْدُونَ بِالْحَقِّ وَبِهِ يَعْدِلُونَ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ أُمَّةَ عِيسَى فَقَالَ: وَلَوْ أَنَّ أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ آمَنُوا وَاتَّقَوْا لَكَفَّرْنَا عَنْهُمْ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: سَاءَ مَا يَعْمَلُونَ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ أُمَّتَنَا: وَمِمَّنْ خَلَقْنَا أُمَّةٌ يَهْدُونَ بِالْحَقِّ وَبِهِ يَعْدِلُونَ

✧ A man was mentioned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who had inflicted harm on the enemy and exerted himself. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I do not know this man. He said: Rather I describe him as such and such. He said: I do not know him. While we were like that, the man appeared. They said: It is this one, O Messenger of Allah. He said: I did not know this one. This is the first horn I have seen in my community. There is in him a touch from Satan. When the man drew near, he greeted, and he returned the greeting. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: I adjure you by Allah, did you tell yourself when you appeared to us that there is no one among the people better than you? He said: O Allah, yes. He said: Then he entered the mosque and prayed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Abu Bakr: Arise and kill him. Abu Bakr entered and found him praying. Abu Bakr said to himself: Prayer has sanctity and a right, and if only I had consulted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He came to him, and the Prophet ﷺ said to him: Did you kill him? He said: No, I saw him praying, and I considered prayer to have sanctity and a right, and if you wish for me to kill him, I will kill him. He said: You are not the one for him. Go, you, O 'Umar, and kill him. 'Umar entered the mosque and found him prostrating. He waited for him for a long time, then said to himself: Prostration has a right, and if only I had consulted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, for someone better than me has already consulted him. He came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Did you kill him? He said: No, I saw him prostrating, and I considered prostration to have a right, and if you wish for me to kill him, I will kill him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: You are not the one for him. Arise, O 'Ali, you are the one for him if you find him. He entered and found that he had left the mosque. He returned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Did you kill him? He said: No. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Had he been killed today, no two men of my community would have differed until the Dajjal appears. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ narrated to them about the nations and said: The community of Musa split into seventy-one sects, seventy of them in the Fire and one in Paradise. The community of 'Isa split into seventy-two sects, seventy-one of them in the Fire and one in Paradise. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: And my community will exceed both groups together by one sect: seventy-two in the Fire and one in Paradise. They said: Who are they, O Messenger of Allah? He said: The congregations. Ya'qub b. Zayd said: When 'Ali b. Abi Talib ؓ narrated this hadith from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he recited from the Qur'an: 'And among the people of Musa is a community that guides by the truth and by it establishes justice.' Then he mentioned the community of 'Isa and said: 'If only the People of the Book had believed and been mindful, We would have removed from them their misdeeds' up to His saying: 'Evil is what they do.' Then he mentioned our community: 'And among those We created is a community that guides by the truth and by it establishes justice.'
