Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-2794b
"عن سُوَيْدِ بن غَفَلَةَ قال: لما قَدِمَ عُمَرُ الشام قامَ إِليهِ رجلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الكِتَابِ فقالَ: يا أَمِير المؤمنين: إِنَّ رجلًا من المؤمنين صَنعَ بى مَا تَرى، قال: وهوَ مشْجُوجٌ مضْروبٌ، فغضب عمر غضبًا شَدِيدًا ثم قال لصُهَيبٍ: انطلقْ وانْظُر مَنْ صاحِبُه فائتِنى، فانطَلَقَ صُهيبٌ فإذا هو عوْفُ بن مالكٍ الأشْجَعِىُّ، فَقالَ: إِنَّ أميرَ المؤمنين قد غَضِبَ عَلَيْكَ غَضَبًا شديدًا فائْتِ مُعَاذَ بن جبلٍ فَلْيكلِّمْهُ، فإنِّى أخافُ أن يُعَجِّلَ إلَيْكَ، فلما قضى عُمَرُ الصلاةَ قَالَ لِصُهَيبٍ: أجِئتَ بالرجُلِ؟ قال: نَعمْ -وقَد كَان عَوفٌ أَتَى معاذًا فأخبرَه بِقصتِهِ- فقام معاذ فقال: يا أمير المؤمنين: إنَّهُ عَوْفُ بنُ مالكٍ فاسمعْ منه ولَا تُعجِّلْ إليه، فقال له عمر: مَالَكَ ولِهذَا؟ قال: يا أميرَ المؤمنينَ رأَيتُ هَذَا يسوقُ بامرأةٍ مُسلِمَةٍ عَلى حِمارٍ فَنخَسَ بهَا ليَصرع بها فلم تَصْرَعْ، فَدَفَعهَا فَصُرعَتْ فَغَشِيَهَا أو أكبَّ عَلَيها، فقال له إيتنى بالمرأةِ فلتُصَدّقْ ما قلتَ. فأتاها عوفٌ فقال له أبوها وزوجُها: ما أرَدْتَ إلى صاحِبتِنَا قد فضحْتنا، فَقَالَتْ: واللَّه لأَذهبنَّ مَعَهُ، فَقَالَ أَبُوهَا وَزَوجُها: نحنُ نَذهبُ فنبلِّغُ عنْكِ، فأتَيا عُمرَ فأخبراه بِمثلِ قول عَوْفٍ، وأمر عمر باليهودى فصُلِب، وقال: ما على هذا صالحْنَاكُمْ، ثم قال: أيُّها الناس: اتقوا اللَّه في ذِمَّةِ مُحمدٍ، فمنْ فَعَلَ مِنهم هذا فلا ذمَّة له، قال سويد: فذلك اليهودىُّ أولُ مَصْلوبٍ رأيته في الإسلام".

"Suwayd ibn Ghafalah said: When 'Umar came to Syria, a man from the People of the Book stood before him and said: O Commander of the Faithful, a man from the believers did to me what you see. He was wounded on the head and beaten. 'Umar became extremely angry and said to Suhayb: Go and look at who his companion is and bring him to me. Suhayb went and found him to be 'Awf ibn Malik al-Ashja'i. He said: The Commander of the Faithful has become very angry with you, so go to Mu'adh ibn Jabal and let him speak to him, for I fear he will hasten against you. When 'Umar finished the prayer, he said to Suhayb: Did you bring the man? He said: Yes. ('Awf had gone to Mu'adh and informed him of his story.) Mu'adh stood and said: O Commander of the Faithful, this is 'Awf ibn Malik. Listen to him and do not hasten against him. 'Umar said to him: What is it to you with this? He said: O Commander of the Faithful, I saw this one driving a Muslim woman on a donkey. He prodded it so she would fall, but she did not fall. He pushed her so she fell, and he came upon her or fell upon her. 'Umar said to him: Bring me the woman so that she may confirm what you have said. 'Awf went to her, and her father and husband said to him: What did you want from our companion? You have disgraced us. She said: By Allah, I will go with him. Her father and husband said: We will go and relate on your behalf. They came to 'Umar and informed him with the same account as 'Awf. 'Umar ordered the Jew to be crucified and said: We did not make this a condition of our treaty with you. Then he said: O people, fear Allah regarding the protection of Muhammad; whoever among them does this, he has no protection. Suwayd said: That Jew was the first crucified man I saw in Islam."
