حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، قَالَ: مَرَرْتُ بِالرَّبَذَةِ، فَإِذَا فُسْطَاطٌ، فَقُلْتُ: لِمَنْ هَذَا؟ فَقِيلَ: لِمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ، فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَقُلْتُ: رَحِمَكَ اللهُ إِنَّكَ مِنْ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ بِمَكَانٍ، فَلَوْ خَرَجْتَ إِلَى النَّاسِ فَأَمَرْتَ، وَنَهَيْتَ. فَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِنَّهُ سَتَكُونُ فِتْنَةٌ، وَفُرْقَةٌ، وَاخْتِلَافٌ، فَإِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ فَأْتِ بِسَيْفِكَ أُحُدًا، فَاضْرِبْ بِهِ عُرْضَهُ، وَاكْسِرْ نَبْلَكَ، وَاقْطَعْ، وَتَرَكَ، وَاجْلِسْ فِي بَيْتِكَ " فَقَدْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ يَزِيدُ مَرَّةً: " فَاضْرِبْ بِهِ حَتَّى تَقْطَعَهُ، ثُمَّ اجْلِسْ فِي بَيْتِكَ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَكَ يَدٌ خَاطِئَةٌ، أَوْ يُعَافِيَكَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ "، فَقَدْ كَانَ مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَفَعَلْتُ مَا أَمَرَنِي بِهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَنْزَلَ سَيْفًا كَانَ مُعَلَّقًا بِعَمُودِ الْفُسْطَاطِ، فَاخْتَرَطَهُ فَإِذَا سَيْفٌ مِنْ خَشَبٍ، فَقَالَ: قَدْ فَعَلْتُ مَا أَمَرَنِي بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،، ، وَاتَّخَذْتُ هَذَا أُرْهِبُ بِهِ النَّاسَ، (١)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Abu Burdah says that once I was passing by the place of Rabdhah when I saw a tent there. I asked the people whose tent it was. The people told me that it belonged to Muhammad bin Maslamah. I went there, sought permission from him, and entered inside. I said to him: May Allah send His mercy upon you, you have secluded yourself in this place regarding this matter, why don’t you go out among the people and enjoin good and forbid evil? He replied that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Soon there will be tribulations, divisions, and differences. When this begins to happen, take your sword and go to Mount Uhud, strike it on the mountain from its width, break its blade, break your bow, and sit in your house. And now this has happened, and I have done exactly what the Prophet (ﷺ) commanded me. Then he took down a sword that was hanging from the pole of the tent, unsheathed it, and it was a wooden sword. He said: I have done what the Prophet (ﷺ) commanded me, and I had this made so that I could frighten people with it, and thus I too have a sword.
