أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي حَسَّانَ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنِ الْأَشْتَرِ
أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ «إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ تَفَشَّغَ فِيهِمْ مَا يَسْمَعُونَ فَإِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ عَهِدَ إِلَيْكَ عَهْدًا فَحَدِّثْنَا بِهِ» قَالَ «مَا عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَهْدًا لَمْ يَعْهَدْهُ إِلَى النَّاسِ غَيْرَ أَنَّ فِي قِرَابِ سَيْفِي صَحِيفَةً» قَالَ «فَإِذَا فِيهَا إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَرَّمَ مَكَّةَ وَأَنَا أُحَرِّمُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَإِنَّهَا حَرَامٌ مَا بَيْنَ حَرَّتَيْهَا لَا يُقْطَعُ مِنْهَا شَجَرَةٌ إِلَّا لِعَلَفِ بَعِيرٍ وَلَا يُحْمَلُ فِيهَا سِلَاحٌ لِقِتَالٍ وَمَنْ أَحْدَثَ حَدَثًا فَعَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَمَنْ أَحْدَثَ حَدَثًا أَوْ آوَى مُحْدِثًا فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ تَتَكَافَأُ دِمَاؤُهُمْ يَسْعَى بِذِمَّتِهِمْ أَدْنَاهُمْ وَهُمْ يَدٌ عَلَى مَنْ سِوَاهُمْ لَا يُقْتَلُ مُؤْمِنٌ بِكَافِرٍ وَلَا ذُو عَهْدٍ فِي عَهْدِهِ»

✧ He narrated to him that he said to ʿAli: "The people have been immersed in what they hear. If the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entrusted you with something, tell us." He said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not entrust me with anything he did not entrust to the people, except that in the sheath of my sword there is a scroll." He said: "And in it: Abraham made Makkah sacred, and I make Madinah sacred. It is inviolable between its two lava tracts; no tree may be cut from it except for camel fodder, and no weapon may be carried in it for fighting. Whoever introduces an innovation, it is upon himself; and whoever introduces an innovation or shelters an innovator, upon him is the curse of Allah, the angels, and all people; no obligatory or supererogatory act is accepted from him. The believers' blood is equal; the lowest of them may strive for their protection; they are one hand against others. A believer is not to be killed for a disbeliever, nor one with a covenant while his covenant stands."
