وَأَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا قُرَّةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ؓ قَالَ:

أَقْبَلْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَمَعِي رَجُلَانِ مِنَ الْأَشْعَرِيِّينَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَنْ يَمِينِي وَالْآخَرُ عَنْ يَسَارِي، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - يَسْتَاكُ، فَكِلَاهُمَا سَأَلَ الْعَمَلَ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا مُوسَى أَوْ يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ، إِنَّا لَا نَسْتَعْمِلُ عَلَى عَمَلِنَا مَنْ أَرَادَهُ فَقُلْتُ: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ، مَا أَطْلَعَانِي عَلَى مَا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمَا، وَمَا شَعَرْتُ أَنَّهُمَا يَطْلُبَانِ الْعَمَلَ، فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى سِوَاكِهِ تَحْتَ شَفَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: " اذْهَبْ أَنْتَ يَا أَبَا مُوسَى أَوْ يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ " فَبَعَثَهُ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ، ثُمَّ بَعَثَ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ أَلْقَى لَهُ وِسَادَةً، وَقَالَ: انْزِلْ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ عِنْدَهُ مُوثَقٌ، فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا كَانَ يَهُودِيًّا فَأَسْلَمَ ثُمَّ رَاجَعَ دِينَهُ دِينَ السَّوْءِ فَتَهَوَّدَ، فَقَالَ: لَا أَنْزِلُ حَتَّى يُقْتَلَ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَقُتِلَ، ثُمَّ تَذَاكَرَا قِيَامَ اللَّيْلِ، فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَقُومُ وَأَنَامُ وَأَرْجُو فِي نَوْمَتِي مَا أَرْجُو فِي قَوْمَتِي

✧ I came to the Prophet ﷺ with two men from the Ash'aris, one on my right and the other on my left. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was using a siwak. Both of them asked for a position of authority. He said: O Abu Musa, or O 'Abd Allah b. Qays, we do not appoint to our work anyone who desires it. I said: By the One who sent you with the truth, they did not inform me of what was in their hearts, and I did not realize that they were seeking the position. It is as if I can see his siwak under his lip. He said: Go, you, O Abu Musa, or O 'Abd Allah b. Qays. He sent him to Yemen. Then he sent Mu'adh b. Jabal. When he arrived, he placed a cushion for him and said: Alight. There was a man with him bound. He said: What is this? He said: This man was a Jew, then he accepted Islam, then he reverted to his religion, the evil religion, and became a Jew again. He said: I will not alight until he is killed. He ordered it and he was killed. Then they discussed night prayer. Mu'adh said: As for me, I pray and I sleep, and I hope for in my sleep what I hope for in my standing.

  • Dāraquṭnī

    رواه خالد الحذاء عن حميد بن هلال عن أبي بردة عن أبي موسى ومعاذ ورواه أيوب عن حميد بن هلال مرسلا ورواه أبو إسحاق الشيباني عن سعيد بن أبي بردة عن أبيه وفي ذلك تقوية برواية خالد الحذاء

    machine translationKhālid al-Ḥadhdhāʾ narrated it from Ḥumayd b. Hilāl, from Abū Burdah, from Abū Mūsā and Muʿādh. Ayyūb narrated it from Ḥumayd b. Hilāl as a mursal report (mursal). Abū Isḥāq al-Shaybānī narrated it from Saʿīd b. Abī Burdah, from his father. In that is a strengthening of the narration of Khālid al-Ḥadhdhāʾ.
