حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا، يَقُولُ: بَصَرَ عَيْنِي، وَسَمِعَ أُذُنِي رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْجِعْرَانَةِ وَفِي ثَوْبِ بِلَالٍ فِضَّةٌ، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْبِضُهَا لِلنَّاسِ، يُعْطِيهِمْ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: اعْدِلْ، قَالَ: " وَيْلَكَ، وَمَنْ يَعْدِلُ إِذَا لَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْدِلُ "، قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، دَعْنِي أَقْتُلْ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقَ الْخَبِيثَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَعَاذَ اللهِ أَنْ يَتَحَدَّثَ النَّاسُ أَنِّي أَقْتُلُ أَصْحَابِي، إِنَّ (١) هَذَا وَأَصْحَابَهُ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ، لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ، يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ، كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ " (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that in the year of Ji‘irrana, I was with the Prophet (ﷺ) while he was distributing silver among the people, which was placed in the garment of Bilal. A man said, "O Messenger of Allah! Be just." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Woe to you! If I am not just, then who will be just? If I do not act justly, then I would be at a loss." ‘Umar said, "O Messenger of Allah! Allow me to strike the neck of this hypocrite." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "I seek refuge with Allah that people should start saying that I kill my companions. And these people, their companions will recite the Qur'an but it will not go beyond their throats, and they will go out of the religion just as an arrow passes through its prey."
