أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ أَنَّ ابْنَ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ جَاءَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَآمَنَ بِهِ وَاتَّبَعَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أُهَاجِرُ مَعَكَ فَأَوْصَى بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَعْضَ أَصْحَابِهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَتْ غَزْوَةٌ غَنِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَبْيًا «فَقَسَمَ وَقَسَمَ لَهُ» فَأَعْطَى أَصْحَابَهَ مَا قَسَمَ لَهُ وَكَانَ يَرْعَى ظَهْرَهُمْ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ دَفَعُوهُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا؟ قَالُوا قِسْمٌ قَسَمَهُ لَكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَخَذَهُ فَجَاءَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا فَقَالَ «قَسَمْتُهُ لَكَ» قَالَ مَا عَلَى هَذَا اتَّبَعْتُكَ وَلَكِنِ اتَّبَعْتُكَ عَلَى أَنْ أُرْمَى هَاهُنَا وَأَشَارَ إِلَى حَلْقِهِ بِسَهْمٍ فَأَمُوتَ فَأَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ «إِنْ تَصْدُقِ اللهَ يَصْدُقْكَ فَلَبِثُوا قَلِيلًا» ثُمَّ نَهَضُوا فِي قِتَالِ الْعَدُوِّ فَأُتِيَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُحْمَلُ قَدْ أَصَابَهُ سَهْمٌ حَيْثُ أَشَارَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَهُوَ هُوَ» فَقَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «صَدَقَ اللهَ فَصَدَّقَهُ» ثُمَّ كَفَّنَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي جُبَّةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَدَّمَهُ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ فَكَانَ مِمَّا ظَهَرَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ عَلَيْهِ «اللهُمَّ هَذَا عَبْدُكَ خَرَجَ مُهَاجِرًا فِي سَبِيلِكَ فَقُتِلَ شَهِيدًا أَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَيْهِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا تَابَعَ ابْنَ الْمُبَارَكِ عَلَى هَذَا وَالصَّوَابُ ابْنُ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ وَابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ أَحَدُ الْأَئِمَّةِ وَلَعَلَّ الْخَطَأَ مِنْ غَيْرِهِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ

✧ A man from the Bedouins came to the Prophet ﷺ and believed in him and followed him. Then he said: I will emigrate with you. So the Prophet ﷺ entrusted him to some of his companions. When a battle took place, the Prophet ﷺ took captives as spoils, and he distributed them and allotted a share for him. He gave his companions what he had allotted for him, and the man was tending their riding animals. When he came, they handed it to him. He said: What is this? They said: A share the Prophet ﷺ allotted for you. He took it and brought it to the Prophet ﷺ and said: What is this? He said: “I allotted it for you.” He said: It is not for this that I followed you; rather, I followed you so that I might be shot here – and he pointed to his throat with an arrow – and die and enter Paradise. He said: “If you are true to Allah, Allah will be true to you.” They waited a little, then they advanced to fight the enemy. The man was brought to the Prophet ﷺ carried, having been struck by an arrow exactly where he had pointed. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Is it he?” They said: Yes. He said: “He was true to Allah, and Allah was true to him.” Then the Prophet ﷺ shrouded him in the Prophet's own cloak, then he brought him forward and prayed over him. Among what appeared of his prayer for him was: “O Allah, this is Your servant who went out as an emigrant in Your path and was killed as a martyr, and I am a witness for him.” Abu Abd al-Rahman said: We do not know anyone who agreed with Ibn al-Mubarak on this. The correct version is from Ibn Abi Ammar, from Ibn Shaddad ibn al-Had. Ibn al-Mubarak is one of the imams, and perhaps the error is from someone other than him, and Allah knows best.
