حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْكُوفِيُّ، نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ شَرِيكٍ، نَا أَبِي، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ:
كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حَتَّى أَقْبَلَ رَجُلٌ حَسَنُ السَّمْتِ ذَكَرُوا مِنْ أَمْرِهِ أَمْرًا حَسَنًا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنِّي لَأَرَى عَلَى وَجْهِهِ سَفْعَةً مِنَ النَّارِ، فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى فَسَلَّمَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: بِاللهِ جِئْتَ، ذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً أَحْسَبُهُ، قَالَ: قُلْتَ فِي نَفْسِكَ - أَوْ - إِنَّكَ تَرَى فِي نَفْسِكَ أَنَّكَ أَفْضَلُ الْقَوْمِ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّهُ قَدْ طَلَعَ فِي أُمَّتِي، أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: قَوْمٌ هَذَا وَأَصْحَابُهُ مِنْهُمْ، فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: أَفَلَا أَقْتُلُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ: بَلَى، فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَوَجَدَهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ يُصَلِّي، فَرَجَعَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي وَجَدْتُهُ يُصَلِّي فَلَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: أَفَلَا أَقْتُلُهُ ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقَ عُمَرُ فَوَجَدَهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ يُصَلِّي رَاكِعًا فَرَجَعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي وَجَدْتُهُ يُصَلِّي فَلَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهُ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ: أَفَلَا أَقْتُلُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى أَنْتَ تَقْتُلُهُ إِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ، فَانْطَلَقَ عَلِيٌّ فَلَمْ يَجِدْهُ

✧ We were with the Prophet ﷺ when a man of good appearance approached, and they mentioned something good about him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Indeed I see on his face a scorch mark from the Fire.” When he came and greeted, the Prophet ﷺ said, “By Allah, did you come — he mentioned a word, I think he said: Did you say to yourself — or — do you consider yourself superior to the people?” He said, “Yes.” When he left, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Indeed there has appeared in my nation — I think he said: a people, this man and his companions among them.” Abu Bakr said, “Shall I not kill him, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Yes.” Abu Bakr went and found him praying in the mosque, so he returned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, “I found him praying, so I was not able to kill him.” Umar said, “Shall I not kill him?” He said, “Yes.” Umar went and found him praying in the mosque, bowing, so he returned to the Prophet ﷺ and said, “I found him praying, so I was not able to kill him.” Ali said, “Shall I not kill him, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Yes, you will kill him if you find him.” Ali went but did not find him.
