أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ السَّبَّاقِ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ

أَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ مَقْتَلَ أَهْلِ الْيَمَامَةِ فَإِذَا عُمَرُ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ جَالِسٌ عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ «إِنَّ عُمَرَ جَاءَنِي فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْقَتْلَ قَدِ اسْتَحَرَّ يَوْمَ الْيَمَامَةِ بِقُرَّاءِ الْقُرْآنِ وَإِنِّي أَخْشَى أَنْ يَسْتَحِرَّ الْقَتْلُ فِي الْمَوَاطِنِ كُلِّهَا فَيَذْهَبُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ كَثِيرٌ وَإِنِّي أَرَى أَنْ تَأْمُرَ بِجَمْعِ الْقُرْآنِ قَالَ قُلْتُ كَيْفَ أَفْعَلُ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَفْعَلْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ هُوَ وَاللَّهِ خَيْرٌ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يُرَاجِعُنِي فِي ذَلِكَ حَتَّى شَرَحَ اللَّهُ صَدْرِي لِلَّذِي شَرَحَ لَهُ صَدْرَ عُمَرَ وَرَأَيْتُ فِي ذَلِكَ الَّذِي رَأَى» فَقَالَ لِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ «إِنَّكَ شَابٌّ عَاقِلٌ لَا نَتَّهِمُكَ وَقَدْ كُنْتَ تُكْتَبُ الْوَحْيَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَتَتَبَّعِ الْقُرْآنَ فَاجْمَعْهُ» قَالَ زَيْدٌ فَوَاللَّهِ لَوْ كَلَّفَنِي نَقْلَ جَبَلٍ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ مَا كَانَ أَثْقَلَ عَلَيَّ مِمَّا أَمَرَنِي بِهِ مِنْ جَمْعِ الْقُرْآنِ قُلْتُ فَكَيْفَ تَفْعَلُونَ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَفْعَلْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ هُوَ وَاللَّهِ خَيْرٌ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يُرَاجِعُنِي حَتَّى شَرَحَ اللَّهُ صَدْرِي لِلَّذِي شَرَحَ لَهُ صَدْرَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ قَالَ فَتَتَبَّعْتُ الْقُرْآنَ أَجْمَعُهُ مِنَ الرِّقَاعِ وَاللِّخَافِ وَالْعُسُبِ وَصُدُورِ الرِّجَالِ حَتَّى وَجَدْتُ آخِرَ سُورَةِ التَّوْبَةِ مَعَ خُزَيْمَةَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ لَمْ أَجِدْهَا مَعَ أَحَدٍ غَيْرِهِ {لَقَدْ جَاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ مَا عَنِتُّمْ} خَاتِمَةُ بَرَاءَةَ قَالَ فَكَانَتِ الصُّحُفُ عِنْدَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ حَتَّى تَوَفَّاهُ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ حَتَّى تَوَفَّاهُ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ عِنْدَ حَفْصَةَ بِنْتِ عُمَرَ

✧ Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, ؓ, sent for me after the killing of the people of al-Yamamah, and ʿUmar, ؓ, was sitting with him. Abu Bakr said, 'ʿUmar came to me and said, "The killing has been intense on the day of al-Yamamah among the reciters of the Quran, and I fear that killing will be intense in all places and much of the Quran will be lost. I think you should order the collection of the Quran." I said, "How can I do something that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not do?" ʿUmar said, "By Allah, it is good." He kept reviewing this with me until Allah opened my chest to what He had opened ʿUmar's chest, and I saw in it what he saw.' Abu Bakr said to me, 'You are a young intelligent man, and we do not suspect you, and you used to write down the revelation for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so trace the Quran and collect it.' Zayd said: By Allah, if they had tasked me with moving a mountain among the mountains, it would not have been heavier upon me than what he ordered me to do of collecting the Quran. I said, 'How can you do something that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not do?' He said, 'By Allah, it is good.' Abu Bakr kept reviewing this with me until Allah opened my chest to what He had opened the chests of Abu Bakr and ʿUmar. He said: So I traced the Quran, collecting it from palm stalks, thin stones, and the hearts of men, until I found the last part of Surah al-Tawbah with Khuzaymah b. Thabit al-Ansari; I did not find it with anyone else: 'There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves. Grievous to him is what you suffer.' [This is] the end of Baraʾah. He said: The sheets remained with Abu Bakr until Allah took him, then with ʿUmar until Allah took him, then with Hafsah bint ʿUmar.
