فَحَدَّثَنَا الشَّيْخُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ غَالِبٍ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ ثنا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ بَلَغَ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَأَنْ أُمَتَّعَ بِسَوْطٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُعْتِقَ وَلَدَ الزِّنَا» وَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «وَلَدُ الزِّنَا شَرُّ الثَّلَاثَةِ» «وَإِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ يُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ الْحَيِّ» فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ أَسَاءَ سَمْعًا فَأَسَاءَ إِصَابَةً أَمَّا قَوْلُهُ «لَأَنْ أُمَتَّعَ بِسَوْطٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُعْتِقَ وَلَدَ الزِّنَا» أَنَّهَا لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ {فَلَا اقْتَحَمَ الْعَقَبَةَ وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْعَقَبَةُ} [البلد 12] قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا عِنْدَنَا مَا نُعْتِقُ إِلَّا أَنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَهُ جَارِيَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ تَخْدُمُهُ وَتَسْعَى عَلَيْهِ فَلَوْ أَمَرْنَاهُنَّ فَزَنَيْنَ فَجِئْنَ بِالْأَوْلَادِ فَأَعْتَقْنَاهُمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَأَنْ أُمَتَّعْ بِسَوْطٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ آمُرَ بِالزِّنَا ثُمَّ أُعْتِقَ الْوَلَدَ» سلمة لم يحتج به مسلم وقد وثق وضعفه ابن راهويه

✧ That Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'To be provided with a whip in the way of Allah is more beloved to me than to free a child of adultery,' and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The child of adultery is the worst of the three,' and 'The dead is punished by the weeping of the living.' A'ishah said: May Allah have mercy on Abu Hurayrah; he heard wrongly and thus erred. As for his saying, 'To be provided with a whip in the way of Allah is more beloved to me than to free a child of adultery,' when the verse descended: 'But he has not attempted the steep path. And what can make you know what is the steep path?' (al-Balad 11-12), it was said: O Messenger of Allah, we have nothing to free except that one of us has a black slave-girl who serves him and works for him. If we commanded them to commit adultery and then they brought children, we would free them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'To be provided with a whip in the way of Allah is more beloved to me than to command adultery and then free the child.' Salamah: Muslim did not use him as evidence; he was considered trustworthy but weakened by Ibn Rahawayh.
