حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ قَالَ قَالَ سَهْلُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ

اتَّهِمُوا رَأْيَكُمْ، فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا يَوْمَ أَبِي جَنْدَلٍ، وَلَوْ نَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ نَرُدَّ أَمْرَهُ لَرَدَدْنَاهُ، وَاللهِ مَا وَضَعْنَا سُيُوفَنَا عَنْ عَوَاتِقِنَا مُنْذُ أَسْلَمْنَا لِأَمْرٍ يُفْظِعُنَا إِلَّا أَسْهَلَ بِنَا إِلَى أَمْرٍ نَعْرِفُهُ، إِلَّا هَذَا الْأَمْرَ مَا سَدَدْنَا خُصْمًا إِلَّا انْفَتَحَ لَنَا خُصْمٌ آخَرُ.

✧ Be suspicious of your own opinions, for I saw us on the day of Abū Jandal. If we could have rejected his command, we would have. By God, we have not removed our swords from our shoulders since we became Muslim for any matter that alarmed us except that it led us to something we recognized; except this matter: we have not blocked one opponent but another opponent has opened for us.
