حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا رَبَاحٌ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ
لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، وَكَفَرَ مَنْ كَفَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ، كَيْفَ تُقَاتِلُ النَّاسَ، وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، فَمَنْ قَالَ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ فَقَدْ عَصَمَ مِنِّي مَالَهُ وَنَفْسَهُ، وَحِسَابُهُ عَلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ؟ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: لَأُقَاتِلَنَّ مَنْ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الصَّلَاةِ وَالزَّكَاةِ؛ إِنَّ الزَّكَاةَ حَقُّ الْمَالِ، وَاللهِ لَوْ مَنَعُونِي عَنَاقًا كَانُوا يُؤَدُّونَهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَقَاتَلْتُهُمْ [عَلَى مَنْعِهَا]، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: وَاللهِ مَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنْ رَأَيْتُ أَنَّ اللهَ قَدْ شَرَحَ صَدْرَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ بِالْقِتَالِ فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ

✧ When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died and some people apostatized, Umar b. al-Khattab said: O Abu Bakr, how can you fight people when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'I was commanded to fight people until they say: There is no god but Allah. Whoever says: There is no god but Allah has protected his wealth and life from me, and his reckoning is with Allah, Mighty and Majestic'? Abu Bakr said: I will certainly fight those who separate prayer from zakah; zakah is the right due on wealth. By Allah, if they withheld from me a young goat they used to pay to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I would fight them over its refusal. Umar said: By Allah, it was only when I saw that Allah had opened Abu Bakr's chest to fighting that I knew it was the truth.
