حَدَّثَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ أَبُو الْيَمَانِ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي حُسَيْنٍ عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ
كُنْتُ أَخْدُمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، ثُمَّ آتِي الْمَسْجِدَ إِذَا أَنَا فَرَغْتُ مِنْ عَمَلِي، فَأَضْطَجِعُ فِيهِ فَأَتَانِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَوْمًا وَأَنَا مُضْطَجِعٌ، فَغَمَزَنِي بِرِجْلِهِ، فَاسْتَوَيْتُ جَالِسًا، فَقَالَ لِي: يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ، كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِذَا أُخْرِجْتَ مِنْهَا؟ فَقُلْتُ: أَرْجِعُ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَإِلَى بَيْتِي. قَالَ: " فَكَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِذَا أُخْرِجْتَ مِنْهَا ؟ "فَقُلْتُ: إِذًا آخُذَ سَيْفِي، فَأَضْرِبَ بِهِ مَنْ يُخْرِجُنِي. فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَدَهُ عَلَى مَنْكِبِي، فَقَالَ: "غَفْرًا يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ -ثَلَاثًا - بَلْ تَنْقَادُ مَعَهُمْ حَيْثُ قَادُوكَ، وَتَنْسَاقُ مَعَهُمْ حَيْثُ سَاقُوكَ، وَلَوْ عَبْدٌ أَسْوَدُ. قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ: فَلَمَّا نُفِيتُ إِلَى الرَّبَذَةِ، أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ، فَتَقَدَّمَ رَجُلٌ أَسْوَدُ كَانَ فِيهَا عَلَى نَعَمِ الصَّدَقَةِ، فَلَمَّا رَآنِي أَخَذَ لِيَرْجِعَ وَلِيُقَدِّمَنِي، فَقُلْتُ: كَمَا أَنْتَ، بَلْ أَنْقَادُ لِأَمْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

✧ I used to serve the Prophet ﷺ, then I would come to the mosque when I finished my work and lie down in it. One day the Prophet ﷺ came to me while I was lying down; he nudged me with his foot, and I sat up straight. He said to me: 'O Abu Dharr, how will you act if you are expelled from it (Madinah)?' I said: 'I will return to the mosque of the Prophet ﷺ and to my house.' He said: 'Then how will you act if you are expelled from it?' I said: 'Then I will take my sword and strike with it whoever expels me.' The Prophet ﷺ placed his hand on my shoulder and said: 'Forgiveness, O Abu Dharr - three times - rather, you will comply with them wherever they lead you, and you will be driven along with them wherever they drive you, even if it is a black slave.' Abu Dharr said: When I was exiled to al-Rabadhah and the prayer was established, a black man who was there in charge of the camels of zakat stepped forward. When he saw me, he began to step back to put me forward, but I said: 'Stay as you are; rather, I comply with the command of the Messenger of God ﷺ.'
