أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ عَقِيلٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَاسْتُخْلِفَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ وَكَفَرَ مَنْ كَفَرَ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ قَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ كَيْفَ تُقَاتِلُ النَّاسَ وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَمَنْ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ عَصَمَ مِنِّي مَالَهُ وَنَفْسَهُ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهِ وَحِسَابُهُ عَلَى اللَّهِ»؟ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ وَاللَّهِ لَأُقَاتِلَنَّ مَنْ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الصَّلَاةِ وَالزَّكَاةِ فَإِنَّ الزَّكَاةَ حَقُّ الْمَالِ وَاللَّهِ لَوْ مَنَعُونِي عِقَالًا كَانُوا يُؤَدُّونَهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَقَاتَلْتُهُمْ عَلَى مَنْعِهِ قَالَ عُمَرُ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنْ رَأَيْتُ اللَّهَ شَرَحَ صَدْرَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ لِلْقِتَالِ عَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ

✧ When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died and Abu Bakr ؓ was made successor, and those Arabs who disbelieved disbelieved, 'Umar ؓ said to Abu Bakr, "How can you fight the people when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'I have been commanded to fight the people until they say: There is no god but Allah. Whoever says: There is no god but Allah has protected from me his wealth and his life except by its right, and his reckoning is upon Allah'?" Abu Bakr ؓ said, "By Allah, I will fight whoever separates prayer from zakat, for zakat is the right of wealth. By Allah, if they withheld from me a camel hobble that they used to give to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I would fight them for withholding it." 'Umar said, "By Allah, it was only when I saw that Allah had opened Abu Bakr's chest to the fighting that I knew it was the truth."

لفظ عناقا أصح أي من رواية من روى عقالا أو أبهمه
machine translationThe wording "ʿanāqan" (a young she-goat) is more sound (aṣaḥḥ), that is, than the narration of the one who narrated "ʿiqālan" (a camel's hobble) or left it unspecified.
