حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجُ بْنُ النُّعْمَانِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَالِدٌ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِكِتَابٍ أَصَابَهُ مِنْ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْكُتُبِ (١) ، فَقَرَأَهُ عَلَى (٢) النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَغَضِبَ وَقَالَ: " أَمُتَهَوِّكُونَ فِيهَا يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَقَدْ جِئْتُكُمْ بِهَا بَيْضَاءَ نَقِيَّةً، لَا تَسْأَلُوهُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَيُخْبِرُوكُمْ بِحَقٍّ فَتُكَذِّبُوا بِهِ، أَوْ بِبَاطِلٍ فَتُصَدِّقُوا بِهِ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ أَنَّ مُوسَى كَانَ حَيًّا، مَا وَسِعَهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يَتَّبِعَنِي " (٣)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once Umar came to the service of the Prophet (ﷺ) with a book that he had obtained from a person of the People of the Book, and he began to read it before the Prophet (ﷺ). At this, the Prophet (ﷺ) became angry and said, "O Ibn Khattab, are you inclined towards this? By Him in Whose hand is my soul, I have brought to you a Shariah that is clear and pure. Do not ask the People of the Book about anything, for it may be that they tell you something true and you deny it, or they tell you something false and you affirm it. By Him in Whose hand is my soul, if Musa (Moses) were alive, he would have no choice but to follow me."
