حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ شَيْبَانَ ثنا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ الْبَجَلِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
غَدَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ إِلَى الْكُنَاسَةِ لِيَبْتَاعَ مِنْهَا دَابَّةً وَغَدَا مَوْلًى لَهُ فَوَقَفَ فِي نَاحِيَةِ السُّوقِ فَجَعَلَتِ الدَّوَابُّ تَمُرُّ عَلَيْهِ فَمَرَّ بِهِ فَرَسٌ فَأَعْجَبَهُ فَقَالَ لِمَوْلَاهُ انْطَلِقْ فَاشْتَرِ ذَلِكَ الْفَرَسَ فَانْطَلَقَ مَوْلَاهُ فَأَعْطَى صَاحِبَهُ بِهِ ثَلَاثَمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ فَأَبَى صَاحِبُهُ أَنْ يَبِيعَهُ فَمَاكَسَهُ فَأَبَى صَاحِبُهُ أَنْ يَبِيعَهُ فَقَالَ هَلْ لَكَ أَنْ تَنْطَلِقَ إِلَى صَاحِبٍ لَنَا نَاحِيَةَ السُّوقِ؟ قَالَ لَا أُبَالِي فَانْطَلَقَا إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَوْلَاهُ أَنِّي أَعْطَيْتُ هَذَا بِفَرَسِهِ ثَلَاثَمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ فَأَبَى وَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ صَاحِبُ الْفَرَسِ صَدَقَ أَصْلَحَكَ اللهُ فَتَرَى ذَلِكَ ثَمَنًا قَالَ لَا فَرَسُكَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ تَبِيعُهُ بِخَمْسِمئةٍ حَتَّى بَلَغَ سَبْعَمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ أَوْ ثَمَانَمئةٍ فَلَمَّا أَنْ ذَهَبَ الرَّجُلُ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى مَوْلَاهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ وَيْحَكَ انْطَلَقْتَ لِتَبْتَاعَ لِي دَابَّةً فَأَعْجَبَتْنِي دَابَّةُ رَجُلٍ فَأَرْسَلْتُكَ تَشْتَرِيهَا فَجِئْتَ بِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَقُودُهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ مَا تَرَى مَا تَرَى وَقَدْ «بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى النُّصْحِ لِكُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ»

✧ Abu ‘Abd Allah went early to al-Kunasah to buy a riding beast, and a mawla of his went with him. He stood at a side of the market, and beasts began passing by him. A horse passed by and pleased him, so he said to his mawla: ‘Go buy that horse.’ His mawla went and offered its owner three hundred dirhams for it, but the owner refused to sell it. He haggled with him, but the owner refused to sell it. He said: ‘Will you come to a friend of ours at a side of the market?’ He said: ‘I don’t mind.’ So they went to him. His mawla said to him: ‘I offered this man three hundred dirhams for his horse, but he refused and claimed it is worth more than that.’ The owner of the horse said: ‘He spoke the truth, may Allah set you right. Do you think that is a proper price?’ He said: ‘No, your horse is worth more than that. You would sell it for five hundred—’ until it reached seven hundred or eight hundred dirhams. When the man left, he turned to his mawla and said: ‘Woe to you! You went to buy me a beast. A man’s beast pleased me, so I sent you to buy it, and you came back leading a man from the Muslims while he was saying, “What do you think? What do you think?” And I gave allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to give sincere counsel to every Muslim.’
