حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُرْوَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ قَالَ

اسْتَعْمَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ ابْنُ الأُتُبِيَّةِ عَلَى صَدَقَةٍ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ قَالَ: هَذَا لَكُمْ، وَهَذَا أُهْدِيَ لِي. فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ أَيْضًا: فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ، فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «مَا بَالُ الْعَامِلِ نَبْعَثُهُ فَيَأْتِي يَقُولُ هَذَا لَكَ وَهَذَا لِي، فَهَلَّا جَلَسَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ وَأُمِّهِ فَيَنْظُرُ أَيُهْدَى لَهُ أَمْ لَا، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا يَأْتِي بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا جَاءَ بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَحْمِلُهُ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهِ، إِنْ كَانَ بَعِيرًا لَهُ رُغَاءٌ، أَوْ بَقَرَةً لَهَا خُوَارٌ، أَوْ شَاةً تَيْعَرُ». ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى رَأَيْنَا عُفْرَتَيْ إِبْطَيْهِ: «أَلَا هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ» ثَلَاثًا.

The Prophet ﷺ appointed a man from Banu Asad, called Ibn al-Utbiyyah, to collect charity. When he returned, he said, “This is for you, and this was given to me as a gift.” So the Prophet ﷺ stood on the pulpit —Sufyan also said: he ascended the pulpit— then he praised Allah and extolled Him, and then said: “What is the matter with an agent whom we send out, and he comes back saying, ‘This is for you and this is for me’? Why did he not sit in the house of his father and mother and see whether gifts would be given to him or not? By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, he does not bring anything except that he will come with it on the Day of Resurrection carrying it on his neck: if it is a camel, it will have a braying; or a cow, it will have a lowing; or a sheep, it will bleat.” Then he raised his hands until we could see the whiteness of his armpits, saying three times: “Have I conveyed ˹the message˺?”

Notes

  • Sufyān said: Al-Zuhrī related it to us, and Hishām added—on the authority of his father, on the authority of Abū Ḥumayd—who said: My ears heard it and my eyes saw it; and ask Zayd ibn Thābit, for he heard it with me. But al-Zuhrī did not say: “My ear heard.” “Khuwwār” means a sound, and “al-ju’ār” comes from “you bellow,” like the sound of a cow.

  • قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: قَصَّهُ عَلَيْنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، وَزَادَ هِشَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ قَالَ: سَمِعَتْ أُذُنَايَ، وَأَبْصَرَتْهُ عَيْنِي، وَسَلُوا زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ، فَإِنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ مَعِي. وَلَمْ يَقُلِ الزُّهْرِيُّ: سَمِعَتْ أُذُنِي. {خُوَارٌ} صَوْتٌ، وَالْجُؤَارُ مِنْ تَجْأَرُونَ كَصَوْتِ الْبَقَرَةِ.
