أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ بْنُ مُوسَى أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ

أَنَّ ثَابِتَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ قَدْ هَلَكْتُ، قَالَ: «لِمَ؟» قَالَ: قَدْ نَهَانَا اللَّهُ عَنْ أَنْ نُحِبَّ أَنْ نُحْمَدَ بِمَا لَمْ نَفْعَلْ، وَأَجِدُنِي أُحِبُّ الْحَمْدَ، وَنَهَى اللَّهُ عَنِ الْخُيَلَاءِ، وَأَجِدُنِي أُحِبُّ الْجَمَالَ، وَنَهَى اللَّهُ أَنْ نَرْفَعَ أَصْوَاتَنَا فَوْقَ صَوْتِكَ، وَأَنَا امْرُؤٌ جَهِيرُ الصَّوْتِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «يَا ثَابِتُ، أَلَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَعِيشَ حَمِيدًا، وَتُقْتَلَ شَهِيدًا، وَتَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ؟» قَالَ: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ. قَالَ: فَعَاشَ حَمِيدًا، وَقُتِلَ شَهِيدًا يَوْمَ مُسَيْلِمَةَ الْكَذَّابِ.

✧ “O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, I have feared that I may have been ruined.” He said: “Why?” He said: “Allah has forbidden us to love being praised for what we have not done, and I find that I love praise. Allah has forbidden arrogance, and I find that I love beauty. And Allah has forbidden us to raise our voices above your voice, while I am a man with a loud voice.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “O Thabit, would you not be pleased to live praiseworthy, be killed as a martyr, and enter Paradise?” He said: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: So he lived praiseworthy, and he was killed as a martyr on the day of Musaylimah the Liar.
