حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍعَنْ صُبَيِّ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ

أَنَّهُ كَانَ نَصْرَانِيًّا تَغْلِبِيًّا، فَأَسْلَمَ فَسَأَلَ أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: أَحَجَجْتَ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: حُجَّ وَاعْتَمِرْ ثُمَّ جَاهِدْ فَأَهَلَّ بِهِمَا جَمِيعًا، فَوَافَقَ زَيْدَ بْنَ صُوحَانَ، وَسَلْمَانَ بْنَ رَبِيعَةَ فَقَالَا: هُوَ أَضَلُّ مِنْ نَاقَتِهِ، أَوْ مَا هُوَ بِأَهْدَى مِنْ جَمَلِهِ، فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِقَوْلِهِمَا فَقَالَ: هُدِيتَ لِسُنَّةِ نَبِيِّكَ ﷺ، أَوْ لِسُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ.

✧ He was a Christian of the Taghlib tribe who embraced Islam. He asked: 'Which deed is best?' It was said to him: 'Jihad in the way of Allah, Mighty and Majestic.' So he wanted to go on jihad. It was said to him: 'Have you performed Hajj?' He said: 'No.' It was said to him: 'Perform Hajj and Umrah, then go on jihad.' So he entered ihram for both together. He met Zayd b. Suhan and Salman b. Rabi'ah, and they said: 'He is more astray than his she-camel,' or 'he is no more guided than his camel.' He went to Umar and told him what they said. Umar said: 'You have been guided to the Sunnah of your Prophet ﷺ,' or 'to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.'
