أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْجَوْزَجَانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَعْلَى بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا غَيْلَانُ بْنُ جَامِعٍ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

جَاءَ مَاعِزُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ طَهِّرْنِي فَقَالَ «وَيْحَكَ ارْجِعْ فَاسْتَغْفِرِ اللهَ وَتُبْ إِلَيْهِ» فَرَجَعَ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ طَهِّرْنِي فَقَالَ «وَيْحَكَ ارْجِعْ فَاسْتَغْفِرِ اللهَ وَتُبْ إِلَيْهِ فَرَجَعَ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ» ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ طَهِّرْنِي فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَتِ الرَّابِعَةُ قَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مِمَّ اطَهِّرُكَ؟» قَالَ مِنَ الزِّنَا فَسَأَلَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَبِهِ جُنُونٌ» فَأُخْبِرَ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِمَجْنُونٍ وَسَأَلَ «أَشَرِبْتَ خَمْرًا» فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَاسْتَنْكَهَهُ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ مِنْهُ رِيحَ خَمْرٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَثَيِّبٌ أَنْتَ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَرُجِمَ فَكَانَ النَّاسُ فِيهِ فِرْقَتَيْنِ قَائِلٌ يَقُولُ لَقَدْ هَلَكَ مَاعِزٌ عَلَى أَسْوَءِ عَمَلِهِ لَقَدْ أَحَاطَتْ بِهِ خَطِيئَتُهُ وَقَائِلٌ يَقُولُ أَتَوْبَةٌ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ تَوْبَةِ مَاعِزِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنْ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ فِي يَدِهِ وَقَالَ اقْتُلْنِي بِالْحِجَارَةِ فَلَبِثُوا بِذَلِكَ يَوْمَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةً فَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَهُمْ جُلُوسٌ فَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ جَلَسَ فَقَالَ «اسْتَغْفِرُوا لِمَاعِزِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ» فَقَالُوا يَغْفِرِ اللهُ لِمَاعِزِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَقَدْ تَابَ تَوْبَةً لَوْ قُسِمَتْ بَيْنَ مِائَةٍ لَوَسِعَتْهُمْ» قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا صَالِحُ الْإِسْنَادِ

✧ Ma'iz b. Malik came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: O Messenger of Allah, purify me. He said: "Woe to you, go back and seek Allah's forgiveness and repent to Him." So he went back not far, then came to him and said: O Messenger of Allah, purify me. He said: "Woe to you, go back and seek Allah's forgiveness and repent to Him." So he went back not far, then came to him and said: O Messenger of Allah, purify me. The Prophet ﷺ said the same thing, until when it was the fourth time, the Prophet ﷺ said to him: "From what should I purify you?" He said: From adultery. The Prophet ﷺ asked him: "Is he insane?" He was informed that he was not insane. He asked: "Did you drink wine?" A man stood up and smelled his breath, but did not find the smell of wine on him. The Prophet ﷺ said: "Are you previously married?" He said: Yes. So he ordered him to be stoned, and he was stoned. The people were divided about him into two groups: some saying Ma'iz has perished by the worst of his deeds, his sin has enveloped him; and others saying: Is there any repentance better than the repentance of Ma'iz b. Malik, who came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and placed his hand in his hand and said: Kill me with stones. They remained like that for two or three days. Then the Prophet ﷺ came while they were sitting, greeted them, sat down, and said: "Seek forgiveness for Ma'iz b. Malik." They said: May Allah forgive Ma'iz b. Malik. The Prophet ﷺ said: "He has repented with a repentance that, if divided among a hundred, would suffice them." Abu Abd al-Rahman said to us: This has a sound chain of narration.
