حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: " كَانَ مِنَّا رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي النَّجَّارِ قَدْ قَرَأَ الْبَقَرَةَ، وَآلَ عِمْرَانَ، وَكَانَ يَكْتُبُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَانْطَلَقَ هَارِبًا حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِأَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ ". قَالَ: " فَرَفَعُوهُ، وَقَالُوا: " هَذَا كَانَ يَكْتُبُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ، وَأُعْجِبُوا بِهِ، فَمَا لَبِثَ أَنْ قَصَمَ اللهُ عُنُقَهُ فِيهِمْ، فَحَفَرُوا لَهُ فَوَارَوْهُ، فَأَصْبَحَتِ الْأَرْضُ قَدْ نَبَذَتْهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا، ثُمَّ عَادُوا فَحَفَرُوا لَهُ فَوَارَوْهُ، فَأَصْبَحَتِ الْأَرْضُ قَدْ نَبَذَتْهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا، ثُمَّ عَادُوا، ، فَحَفَرُوا لَهُ فَوَارَوْهُ، فَأَصْبَحَتِ الْأَرْضُ قَدْ نَبَذَتْهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا، فَتَرَكُوهُ مَنْبُوذًا " (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that there was a man from Banu Najjar who used to be the scribe of the Prophet (ﷺ). He had also memorized Surah Al-Baqarah and Aal-e-Imran. After some time, that man became an apostate and joined the polytheists. The polytheists praised him greatly and said that he used to write for Muhammad (ﷺ). Not long after, Allah broke his neck and he died. People dug a grave for him and buried him, but the next day they saw that the earth had thrown him out. They buried him several times, but each time the earth threw him out, until the people left him lying there.
