حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثَنَا أَسْبَاطٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ، قَالَ:

رَجَعْتُ مَعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ ؓ مِنْ صِفِّينَ، فَكَانَ مُعَاوِيَةُ وَأَبُو الْأَعْوَرِ السُّلَمِيُّ يَسِيرُونَ فِي جَانِبٍ، وَعَمْرٌو وَابْنُهُ يَسِيرَانِ فِي جَانِبٍ، فَكُنْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ، لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي، فَكُنْتُ أَحْيَانًا أُوضِعُ إِلَى هَؤُلَاءِ، وَأَحْيَانًا أُوضِعُ إِلَى هَؤُلَاءِ، فَسَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو ؓ، يَقُولُ لِأَبِيهِ: يَا أَبَتِ، أَمَا سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِعَمَّارٍ ؓ حِينَ كَانَ يَبْنِي الْمَسْجِدَ: إِنَّكَ لَحَرِيصٌ عَلَى الْأَجْرِ ؟ قَالَ: أَجَلْ ؓ، وَقَالَ ﷺ: إِنَّكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ، وَتَقْتُلُكَ الْفِئَةُ الْبَاغِيَةُ، قَالَ: بَلَى، قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ، قَالَ: فَلِمَ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ ؟ قَالَ: فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ ؓ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَى مَا يَقُولُ هَذَا ؟ قَالَ: فَذَكَرَهُ، قَالَ: وَيْحَكَ، مَا تَزَالُ تَدْحَضُ فِي قَوْلِكَ، أَنَحْنُ قَتَلْنَاهُ ؟ إِنَّمَا قَتَلَهُ مَنْ جَاءَ بِهِ

✧ I returned with Muawiya ؓ from Siffin. Muawiya and Abu al-A'war al-Sulami were riding on one side, and Amr and his son were riding on another side, and I was between them, no one else but me. Sometimes I urged my mount toward these, and sometimes toward those. I heard Abdullah b. Amr ؓ say to his father: 'O my father, did you not hear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say to Ammar ؓ when he was building the mosque: "You are surely keen for reward"?' He said: 'Yes, by Allah ؓ.' And he ﷺ said: 'You are from the people of Paradise, and the transgressing party will kill you.' He said: 'Yes, I heard it.' He said: 'Then why did you kill him?' He said: 'He turned to Muawiya ؓ and said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman, do you not hear what this one is saying?" He said: 'He mentioned it.' He said: 'Woe to you, you keep slipping in your speech. Did we kill him? Only those who brought him killed him.'
