حَدِيثُ عَامِرِ بِنِ شَهْرٍ (١)، ١٥٥٣٦ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ يَعْنِي الْمُؤَدِّبَ (٢) مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْوَضَّاحِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، وَالْمُجَالِدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ شَهْرٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ كَلِمَتَيْنِ: مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَلِمَةٌ، وَمِنَ النَّجَاشِيِّ أُخْرَى، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " انْظُرُوا قُرَيْشًا فَخُذُوا مِنْ قَوْلِهِمْ، وَذَرُوا فِعْلَهُمْ "، وَكُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّجَاشِيِّ جَالِسًا فَجَاءَ ابْنُهُ مِنَ الْكُتَّابِ، فَقَرَأَ آيَةً مِنَ الْإِنْجِيلِ فَعَرَفْتُهَا - أَوْ فَهِمْتُهَا - فَضَحِكْتُ، فَقَالَ: مِمَّ تَضْحَكُ؟ أَمِنْ كِتَابِ اللهِ تَعَالَى؟ فَوَاللهِ إِنَّ مِمَّا أَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَلَى عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ: أَنَّ اللَّعْنَةَ تَكُونُ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِذَا كَانَ أُمَرَاؤُهَا الصِّبْيَانَ (٣)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Amir bin Shahr that I have heard two things, one from the Prophet (ﷺ) and one from Najashi. I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: "Observe the Quraysh, take their words but leave their actions." And once I was sitting with Najashi when his son brought a book and read a verse from the Gospel. I understood its meaning and began to laugh. Seeing this, Najashi said: "What are you laughing at? At the Book of Allah? By Allah, Allah revealed this to Isa: 'There will be a curse upon the earth when children become its rulers.'"
