حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ حَدَّثَنَا مَحْبُوبُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلاَلٍ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى
أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَسْلَمَ ثُمَّ تَهَوَّدَ فَأَتَى مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ وَهْوَ عِنْدَ أَبِي مُوسَى فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا قَالَ أَسْلَمَ ثُمَّ تَهَوَّدَ قَالَ لاَ أَجْلِسُ حَتَّى أَقْتُلَهُ قَضَاءُ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ﷺ
