- قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو كَثِيرٍ: أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَاهُ يَقُولُ:

أَتَيْتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ ؓ وَهُوَ عِنْدَ الْجَمْرَةِ الْوُسْطَى وَقَدِ اجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ يَسْتَفْتُونَهُ، فَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: أَلَمْ يَنْهَكَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَنِ الْفُتْيَا ؟ قَالَ: فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: أَرَقِيبٌ أَنْتَ عَلَيَّ ؟ لَوْ وَضَعْتُمُ الصَّمْصَامَةَ عَلَى هَذِهِ وَأَشَارَ إِلَى قَفَاهُ ثُمَّ ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّنِي أُنْفِذُ كَلِمَةً سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُجِيزُوا عَلَيَّ لَأَنْفَذْتُهَا

✧ I came to Abu Dharr ؓ while he was at the middle Jamrah and the people had gathered asking him for legal verdicts. A man came and stood before him and said: 'Did not the Commander of the Faithful forbid you from giving legal verdicts?' He raised his head to him and said: 'Are you a watcher over me? If you were to place the sword upon this'—and he pointed to the back of his neck—'then I thought that I could convey a word I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ before you passed it upon me, I would convey it.'
