أَخْبَرَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُؤَمَّلِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عِيسَى ثنا أَبِي ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنَ عُثْمَانَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ نَوْفَلِ بْنِ مُسَاحِقٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ قَالَ
لَمَّا طُعِنَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ قَالَ يَا مُعَاذُ صَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ فَصَلَّى مُعَاذٌ بِالنَّاسِ ثُمَّ مَاتَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ فَقَامَ مُعَاذٌ فِي النَّاسِ فَقَالَ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ تُوبُوا إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ تَوْبَةً نَصُوحًا فَإِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ لَا يَلْقَى اللَّهَ تَائِبًا مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ إِلَّا كَانَ حَقًّا عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لَهُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ فُجِعْتُمْ بِرَجُلٍ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَزْعُمُ أَنِّي رَأَيْتُ مِنْ عَبَّادِ اللَّهِ عَبْدًا قَطُّ أَقَلَّ غَمْزًا وَلَا أَبَرَّ صَدْرًا وَلَا أَبْعَدَ غَائِلَةً وَلَا أَشَدَّ حُبًّا لِلْعَاقِبَةِ وَلَا أَنْصَحَ لِلْعَامَّةِ مِنْهُ فَتَرَحَّمُوا عَلَيْهِ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ أَصْحِرُوا لِلصَّلَاةِ عَلَيْهِ فَوَاللَّهِ لَا يَلِي عَلَيْكُمْ مِثْلَهُ أَبَدًا» فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ وَأَخْرَجَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ وَتَقَدَّمَ مُعَاذٌ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى إِذَا أَتَى بِهِ قَبْرَهُ دَخَلَ قَبْرَهُ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ وَعَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ وَالضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ فَلَمَّا وَضَعُوهُ فِي لَحْدِهِ وَخَرَجُوا فَشَنُّوا عَلَيْهِ التُّرَابَ فَقَالَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ يَا أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ لَأُثْنِيَنَّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَا أَقُولُ بَاطِلًا أَخَافُ أَنْ يَلْحَقَنِي بِهَا مِنَ اللَّهِ مَقْتٌ كُنْتُ وَاللَّهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ مِنَ الذَّاكِرِينَ اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَمَنِ الَّذِينَ يَمْشُونَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ هَوْنًا وَإِذَا خَاطَبَهُمُ الْجَاهِلُونَ قَالُوا سَلَامًا وَمَنِ الَّذِينَ إِذَا أَنْفِقُوا لَمْ يُسْرِفُوا وَلَمْ يَقْتُرُوا وَكَانَ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ قَوَامًا وَكُنْتَ وَاللَّهِ مِنَ الْمُخْبَتِينَ الْمُتَوَاضِعِينَ الَّذِي يَرْحَمُونَ الْيَتِيمَ وَالْمِسْكِينَ وَيَبْغُضُونَ الْخَائِنِينَ الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ

✧ When Abu Ubaidah was struck by the plague, he said, "O Muadh, lead the people in prayer." So Muadh led the people in prayer. Then Abu Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah died. Muadh stood among the people and said, "O people, turn to Allah in sincere repentance from your sins. A servant does not meet Allah repentant from his sin except that it is incumbent upon Allah to forgive him." Then he said, "O people, you have been afflicted by the loss of a man. By Allah, I do not claim that I have ever seen among the servants of Allah a servant less complaining, more pure-hearted, farther from malice, more loving of the Hereafter, or more sincere in advising the common people than him. So ask mercy for him; may Allah have mercy on him." Then he said, "Come out to pray over him, for by Allah, no one like him will ever be placed over you again." The people gathered, and Abu Ubaidah was brought out. Muadh came forward and prayed over him. When he was brought to his grave, Muadh b. Jabal, Amr b. al-As, and al-Dahhak b. Qais entered his grave. When they placed him in his niche and came out, they poured earth over him. Muadh b. Jabal said, "O Abu Ubaidah, I will praise you and not speak falsely, fearing that wrath from Allah might befall me for it. By Allah, as far as I know, you were among those who remember Allah much, among those who walk humbly on the earth, and when the ignorant address them, they say, 'Peace,' and among those who, when they spend, are neither extravagant nor stingy, but between that is a just balance. By Allah, you were among the humble, the meek, who show mercy to the orphan and the needy and detest the treacherous and the arrogant."
