وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قُدَامَةَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ:

رَأَيْتُ الْحَجَّاجَ يَضْرِبُ عَبَّاسَ بْنَ سَهْلٍ فِي إِمْرَةِ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ؓ فَأَتَاهُ سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ؓ وَهُوَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ لَهُ ضَفِيرَتَانِ، وَعَلَيْهِ ثَوْبَانِ: إِزَارٌ وَرِدَاءٌ، فَوَقَفَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السِّمَاطَيْنِ، فَقَالَ: يَا حَجَّاجُ، أَلَا تَحْفَظُ فِينَا وَصِيَّةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ قَالَ: وَمَا أَوْصَى بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِيكُمْ ؟ قَالَ: أَنْ يُحْسَنَ إِلَى مُحْسِنِ الْأَنْصَارِ، وَيُعْفَى عَنْ مُسِيئِهِمْ، قَالَ: فَأَرْسَلَهُ.

✧ I saw al-Hajjaj beating 'Abbas b. Sahl during the governorship of Ibn al-Zubayr ؓ. Sahl b. Sa'd ؓ came to him, an old man with two braids, wearing two garments: an izar and a rida'. He stood before the two rows and said: 'O Hajjaj, do you not preserve among us the bequest of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' He said: 'What did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ enjoin regarding you?' He said: 'To be good to the good-doers of the Ansar and to pardon their wrongdoers.' So he released him.
