حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسٌ عَنْ خَبَّابٍ قَالَ
شَكَوْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُتَوَسِّدٌ بُرْدَةً فِي ظِلِّ الْكَعْبَةِ، فَقُلْنَا: أَلَا تَسْتَنْصِرُ لَنَا اللهَ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى]، أَوَلَا تَسْتَنْصِرُ لَنَا ؟ فَقَالَ: قَدْ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ فِيمَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ يُؤْخَذُ فَيُحْفَرُ لَهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ، فَيُجَاءُ بِالْمِنْشَارِ فَيُوضَعُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَيُجْعَلُ بِنِصْفَيْنِ فَمَا يَصُدُّهُ ذَلِكَ عَنْ دِينِهِ، وَيُمْشَطُ بِأَمْشَاطِ الْحَدِيدِ مَا دُونَ عَظْمِهِ مِنْ لَحْمٍ وَعَصَبٍ فَمَا يَصُدُّهُ ذَلِكَ، وَاللهِ لَيُتِمَّنَّ اللهُ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] هَذَا الْأَمْرَ حَتَّى يَسِيرَ الرَّاكِبُ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى حَضْرَمَوْتَ لَا يَخَافُ إِلَّا اللهَ [تَعَالَى] وَالذِّئْبَ عَلَى غَنَمِهِ، وَلَكِنَّكُمْ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ

✧ We complained to the Messenger of God ﷺ while he was reclining on a cloak in the shade of the Kaʿba. We said: Will you not ask God [Blessed and Exalted] for victory for us, or will you not seek help for us? He said: Among those before you, a man would be seized and a pit dug for him in the earth, then a saw would be brought and placed on his head and he would be split into two halves, yet that would not turn him away from his religion. And he would be combed with iron combs, removing the flesh and sinew from his bones, yet that would not turn him away. By God, God [Mighty and Majestic] will complete this matter until a rider travels from Madinah to Hadramawt fearing none but God [Exalted] and the wolf for his sheep. But you are impatient.
