حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ ذَرٍّ عَنْ الْعَيْزَارِ بْنِ جَرْوَلٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ يُكْنَى أَبَا عُمَيْرٍ أَنَّهُ كَانَ صَدِيقًا لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَإِنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍزَارَهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ فَلَمْ يَجِدْهُ قَالَ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاسْتَسْقَى قَالَ
أَنَّهُ كَانَ صَدِيقًا لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، وَأَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ زَارَهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ، فَلَمْ يَجِدْهُ قَالَ: فَاسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ، وَسَلَّمَ فَاسْتَسْقَى، قَالَ: فَبَعَثَتِ الْجَارِيَةَ تَجِيئُهُ بِشَرَابٍ مِنَ الْجِيرَانِ، فَأَبْطَأَتْ فَلَعَنَتْهَا، فَخَرَجَ عَبْدُ اللهِ فَجَاءَ أَبُو عُمَيْرٍ فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ لَيْسَ مِثْلُكَ يُغَارُ عَلَيْهِ، هَلَّا سَلَّمْتَ عَلَى أَهْلِ أَخِيكَ وَجَلَسْتَ، وَأَصَبْتَ مِنَ الشَّرَابِ؟ قَالَ: قَدْ فَعَلْتُ، فَأَرْسَلَتِ الْخَادِمَ، فَأَبْطَأَتْ، إِمَّا لَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُمْ، وَإِمَّا رَغِبُوا فِيمَا عِنْدَهُمْ، فَأَبْطَأَتِ الْخَادِمُ فَلَعَنَتْهَا، وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ اللَّعْنَةَ إِذَا وُجِّهَتْ إِلَى مَنْ وُجِّهَتْ إِلَيْهِ، فَإِنْ أَصَابَتْ عَلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا أَوْ وَجَدَتْ فِيهِ مَسْلَكًا، وَإِلَّا قَالَتْ: يَا رَبِّ وُجِّهْتُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ فَلَمْ أَجِدْ عَلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا، وَلَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهِ مَسْلَكًا فَيُقَالُ لَهَا: ارْجِعِي مِنْ حَيْثُ جِئْتِ، فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَكُونَ الْخَادِمُ مَعْذُورَةً، فَتَرْجِعَ اللَّعْنَةُ فَأَكُونَ سَبَبَهَا.

✧ He was a close friend of Abdullah b. Masud, and Abdullah b. Masud visited him among his family but did not find him. He asked permission from his family, greeted them, and asked for water. The slave girl was sent to bring him a drink from the neighbors, but she was slow, so she cursed her. Abdullah left, then Abu Umayr came and said: O Abu Abd al-Rahman, someone like you should not be treated with jealousy. Why did you not greet your brother's family, sit, and have some drink? He said: I did, and she sent the servant, but she was slow—either they did not have any, or they were reluctant to share what they had—so the servant was slow and she cursed her. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: When a curse is directed at someone, if it finds a way to him or a path in him, it strikes; otherwise it says: O Lord, I was directed to so-and-so but found no way to him and no path in him. Then it is told: Return to where you came from. I feared that the servant might be excused, and the curse would return and I would be its cause.
