أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ الرَّكْبُ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَمِّرِ الْقَعْقَاعَ بْنَ مَعْبَدٍ وَقَالَ عُمَرُ بَلْ أَمِّرِ الْأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ فَتَمَارَيَا حَتَّى ارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا فَنَزَلَتْ فِي ذَلِكَ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ} [الحجرات 1] حَتَّى انْقَضَتِ الْآيَةُ {وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ صَبَرُوا حَتَّى تَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِمْ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ} [الحجرات 5]

✧ He informed him that the delegation of Banu Tamim came to the Prophet ﷺ. Abu Bakr said, "Appoint al-Qa'qa' b. Ma'bad as commander," while 'Umar said, "Rather, appoint al-Aqra' b. Habis." They disputed until their voices rose, and regarding that was revealed: {O you who believe, do not put [yourselves] before Allah and His Messenger} [al-Hujurat: 1] until the verse ended: {And if they had been patient until you came out to them, it would have been better for them} [al-Hujurat: 5].
