[ مَوْتُ مُحَلِّمٍ وَمَا حَدَثَ لَهُ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي مَنْ لَا أَتَّهِمُ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ الْبَصَرِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ جَلَسَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ: أَمَّنْتَهُ بِاَللَّهِ ثُمَّ قَتَلْتَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ الْمَقَالَةَ الَّتِي قَالَ؛ قَالَ: فَوَاَللَّهِ مَا مَكَثَ مُحَلِّمُ بْنُ جَثَّامَةَ إلَّا سَبْعًا حَتَّى مَاتَ، فَلَفَظَتْهُ، وَاَلَّذِي نَفْسُ الْحَسَنِ بِيَدِهِ، الْأَرْضُ، ثُمَّ عَادُوا لَهُ، فَلَفَظَتْهُ الْأَرْضُ، ثُمَّ عَادُوا فَلَفَظَتْهُ؛ فَلَمَّا غُلِبَ قَوْمُهُ عَمِدُوا إلَى صُدَّيْنِ، فَسَطَحُوهُ بَيْنَهُمَا، ثُمَّ رَضَمُوا عَلَيْهِ الْحِجَارَةَ حَتَّى وَارَوْهُ. قَالَ: فَبَلَغَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ شَأْنُهُ، فَقَالَ: وَاَللَّهِ إنَّ الْأَرْضَ لَتَطَّابِقُ عَلَى مَنْ هُوَ شَرٌّ مِنْهُ، وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَعِظَكُمْ فِي حُرْمِ مَا بَيْنَكُمْ بِمَا أَرَاكُمْ مِنْهُ
Translation
✧ [The death of Muḥallim and what happened to him] Ibn Isḥāq said: And one whom I do not suspect narrated to me from al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī, who said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said when he sat before him: “You gave him security by God, then you killed him.” Then he said to him the words that he said. He said: By God, Muḥallim b. Jaththāmah remained only seven days until he died, and the earth, by the One in Whose hand is the soul of al-Ḥasan, cast him out. Then they returned him to it, and the earth cast him out. Then they returned him again, and it cast him out. So when his people were overcome, they went to two stone slabs and laid him flat between them, then heaped stones upon him until they buried him. He said: His affair reached the Messenger of God ﷺ, and he said: “By God, the earth closes over one who is worse than him, but God wished to admonish you concerning the sanctity of what is between you by what He showed you of him.”
