حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ قَالَ: أَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، سَمِعَ بَجَالَةَ بْنَ عَبْدٍ وَهُوَ بَجَالَةُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ قَالَ:
كُنْتُ كَاتِبًا لِجَزْءِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، إِذْ جَاءَنَا كِتَابُ عُمَرَ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ بِشَهْرٍ: اقْتُلُوا كُلَّ سَاحِرٍ وَسَاحِرَةٍ، وَفَرِّقُوا بَيْنَ كُلِّ ذِي مَحْرَمٍ مِنَ الْمَجُوسِ، وَانْهُوهُمْ عَنِ الزَّمْزَمَةِ " فَقَتَلْنَا فِي يَوْمٍ ثَلَاثَ سَوَاحِرَ، وَفَرَّقْنَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمَجُوسِ وَحُرْمَتِهِ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ، وَصَنَعَ طَعَامًا كَثِيرًا فَدَعَاهُمْ فَعَرَضَ السَّيْفَ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ، فَأَكَلُوا وَلَمْ يُزَمْزِمُوا، وَأَلْقَوْا وِقْرَ بَغْلٍ أَوْ بَغْلَيْنِ مِنَ الْوَرِقِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ عُمَرُ أَخَذَ مِنَ الْمَجُوسِ الْجِزْيَةَ حَتَّى شَهِدَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَخَذَهَا مِنْ مَجُوسِ هَجَرَ

✧ I was a scribe for Jaz' b. Mu'awiyah, reporting from al-Ahnaf b. Qays, when a letter from Umar came to us a month before his death: 'Kill every sorcerer and sorceress, and separate every man among the Magians from his close relative, and forbid them from zamzamah (low murmuring).' So we killed three sorceresses in one day, and we separated every Magian man from his wife in the Book of Allah. He prepared a large amount of food and invited them, then he placed a sword on his thigh. So they ate and did not murmur. They threw down a load of a mule or two mules of silver. Umar had not taken the jizyah from the Magians until Abd al-Rahman b. Awf testified that the Prophet ﷺ took it from the Magians of Hajar.
