أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ عَجْلَانَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ
أَنَّ صَبِيغًا الْعِرَاقِيَّ جَعَلَ يَسْأَلُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ فِي أَجْنَادِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ مِصْرَ فَبَعَثَ بِهِ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَلَمَّا أَتَاهُ الرَّسُولُ بِالْكِتَابِ فَقَرَأَهُ فَقَالَ أَيْنَ الرَّجُلُ؟ فَقَالَ فِي الرَّحْلِ قَالَ عُمَرُ «أَبْصِرْ أَنْ يكونَ ذَهَبَ فَتُصِيبَكَ مِنِّي بِهِ الْعُقُوبَةُ الْمُوجِعَةُ» فَأَتَاهُ بِهِ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ «تَسْأَلُ مُحْدَثَةً» فأرْسلَ عُمَرُ إِلَى رَطَائِبَ مِنْ جَرِيدٍ فَضَرَبَهُ بِهَا حَتَّى تَرَكَ ظَهْرَهُ دَبِرَةً ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ حَتَّى بَرَأَ ثُمَّ عَادَ لَهُ ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ حَتَّى بَرَأَ فَدَعَا بِهِ لِيَعُودَ لَهُ قَالَ فقالَ صَبِيغٌ إِنْ كُنْتَ تُرِيدُ قَتْلِي فَاقْتُلْنِي قَتْلًا جَمِيلًا وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تُدَاوِيَنِي فَقَدْ وَاللَّهِ بَرَأْتُ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ وَكَتَبَ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ أَنْ لَا يُجَالِسَهُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَاشْتَدَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ فَكَتَبَ أَبُو مُوسَى إِلَى عُمَرَ أَنْ قَدْ حَسُنَتْ تَوْبَتُهُ فَكَتَبَ عُمَرُ أنِ ائْذَنْ لِلنَّاسِ بِمُجَالَسَتِهِ

✧ Ṣabīgh al-ʿIrāqī began asking about certain matters of the Qurʾān among the armies of the Muslims until he arrived in Egypt. ʿAmr b. al-ʿĀṣ sent him to ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb. When the messenger brought the letter, ʿUmar read it and said: “Where is the man?” The messenger said: “In the camp.” ʿUmar said: “Make sure he has not gone, or you will receive from me a painful punishment.” So he brought him to ʿUmar. ʿUmar said: “You ask about something unheard of?” Then ʿUmar sent for fresh palm branches and beat him with them until he left his back raw. Then he left him until he healed, then repeated it. Then he left him until he healed, then called for him to repeat it again. Ṣabīgh said: “If you intend to kill me, kill me in a good manner; and if you intend to cure me, then by Allah I have already healed.” So ʿUmar permitted him to return to his land and wrote to Abū Mūsā al-Ashʿarī that no Muslim should sit with him. That became hard on the man, so Abū Mūsā wrote to ʿUmar that his repentance had become good. ʿUmar wrote back: “Allow the people to sit with him.”
