أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا عُتْبَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْيَحْمَدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُوقَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ
أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُصُّ بِمَكَّةَ وَعِنْدَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ وَنَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَثَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ كَمَثَلِ الشَّاةِ بَيْنَ الْغَنَمَيْنِ إِنْ مَالَتْ إِلَى هَذَا الْجَانِبِ نُطِحَتْ وَإِنْ مَالَتْ إِلَى هَذَا الْجَانِبِ نُطِحَتْ» قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَيْسَ هَكَذَا فَغَضِبَ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ وَقَالَ تَرُدُّ عَلَيَّ؟ قَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أَرُدَّ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا أَنِّي شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ قَالَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ فَكَيْفَ قَالَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ؟ قَالَ «بَيْنَ الرَّبِيضَيْنِ» قَالَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بَيْنَ الرَّبِيضَيْنِ وَبَيْنَ الْغَنَمَيْنِ سَوَاءٌ قَالَ كَذَا سَمِعْتُ كَذَا سَمِعْتُ كَذَا سَمِعْتُ

✧ He used to tell stories in Makkah, and with him were 'Abd Allah b. 'Umar, 'Abd Allah b. Safwan, and some people from the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ. 'Ubayd b. 'Umayr said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The likeness of the hypocrite is like that of a sheep between two flocks: if it leans to this side, it is butted; if it leans to this side, it is butted."' Ibn 'Umar said, 'It is not like that.' 'Ubayd b. 'Umayr became angry and said, 'Are you rejecting what I say?' He said, 'I did not reject what you said, except that I witnessed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he said it.' 'Abd Allah b. Safwan said, 'How did he say it, O Abu 'Abd al-Rahman?' He said, 'Between the two groups.' He said, 'O Abu 'Abd al-Rahman, between the two groups and between the two flocks are the same.' He said, 'Thus I heard, thus I heard, thus I heard.'
