حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْجُشَمِيُّ، وَأَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، كَاتِبِ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا، يَقُولُ:
بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَا وَالزُّبَيْرَ وَالْمِقْدَادَ، فَقَالَ: انْطَلِقُوا حَتَّى تَأْتُوا رَوْضَةَ خَاخٍ، فَإِنَّ بِهَا ظَعِينَةً، وَمَعَهَا كِتَابٌ تَجِدُونَهُ مَعَهَا، فَانْطَلَقْنَا نَتَعَادَى، حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا الرَّوْضَةَ، فَإِذَا نَحْنُ بِالظَّعِينَةِ، فَقُلْنَا: أَخْرِجِي الْكِتَابَ، فَقَالَتْ: مَا مَعِي كِتَابٌ، فَقُلْنَا: لَتُخْرِجِنَّ الْكِتَابَ أَوْ لَنُفَتِّشَنَّ الثِّيَابَ، فَأَخْرَجَتْهُ مِنْ عِقَاصِهَا، فَأَتَيْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، فَإِذَا فِيهِ: مِنْ حَاطِبِ بْنِ أَبِي بَلْتَعَةَ إِلَى أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ، يُخْبِرُهُمْ بِبَعْضِ أَمْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَاطِبًا، فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَ: لَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيَّ، إِنَّمَا كُنْتُ مُلْصَقًا فِي قُرَيْشٍ، وَلَمْ أَكُنْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ، وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِكَ إِلَّا لَهُ بِمَكَّةَ مَنْ يَحْمِيهِ وَيَخْلُفُهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ غَيْرِي، فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَتَّخِذَ عِنْدَهُمْ يَدًا، وَمَا فَعَلْتُهُ كُفْرًا وَلَا ارْتِدَادًا عَنْ دِينِي، وَلَا رِضًا بِالْكُفْرِ بَعْدَ الْإِسْلَامِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: صَدَقَكُمْ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: دَعْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَضْرِبْ عُنُقَ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: إِنَّهُ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا، وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّ اللهَ اطَّلَعَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ، فَقَالَ: اعْمَلُوا مَا شِئْتُمْ فَقَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَكُمْ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ sent me, along with al-Zubayr and al-Miqdad, and he said: Go until you reach the meadow of Khakh, for there is a woman there, and with her is a letter that you will find with her. So we went racing, until we came to the meadow, and there was the woman. We said: Bring out the letter. She said: I have no letter with me. We said: You will bring out the letter or we will search your clothes. So she brought it out from her hair braids. Then we came to the Prophet ﷺ, and in it was: From Hatib b. Abi Balta'a to the people of Makkah, informing them of some of the affairs of the Messenger of God ﷺ. So the Messenger of God ﷺ called Hatib and said: What is this? He said: Do not be hasty with me. I was an ally attached to Quraysh, not one of their own, and there is no one among your companions but has in Makkah someone to protect him and look after his family, except me. So I wanted to have a favor with them. I did not do it out of disbelief or apostasy from my religion, nor out of approval of disbelief after Islam. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: He has told you the truth. Umar said: Let me strike the neck of this hypocrite, O Messenger of God. He said to him: He was present at Badr. And what do you know? Perhaps God has looked upon the people of Badr and said: Do whatever you wish, for I have forgiven you.
