حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ غَنَّامٍ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ أَنَا غُنْدَرٌ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَسْعَدَ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى وَمَا أَدْرَكْتُ رَجُلًا مِنَّا بِهِ شَبِيهًا يُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ
أَنَّ أَسْعَدَ بْنَ زُرَارَةَ وَهُوَ جَدُّ مُحَمَّدٍ أَخَذَهُ وَجَعٌ فِي حَلْقِهِ يُقَالُ لَهُ الذُّبْحَةُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَأُبْلِغَنَّ أَوْ لَأُبْلِيَنَّ فِي أَبِي أُمَامَةَ عُذْرًا فَكَوَاهُ بِيَدِهِ فَمَاتَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِئْسَ الْمَيِّتُ لِلْيَهُودِ يَقُولُونَ أَفَلَا دَفَعَ عَنْ صَاحِبِهِ وَمَا أَمْلِكُ لَهُ وَلَا لِنَفْسِي مِنَ اللهِ شَيْئًا

✧ As'ad b. Zurarah, who was the grandfather of Muhammad, was afflicted with a pain in his throat called quinsy. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "I will indeed reach or strive to the utmost in the case of Abu Umamah with an excuse." So he cauterized him with his own hand, and he died. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "What a bad death for the Jews; they will say, 'Could he not have warded off death from his companion?' I have no power for him or for myself against Allah in anything."
