Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، أَخْبَرَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ أَوْ عَمَّهَ، قَامَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: جِيرَانِي بِمَ أُخِذُوا؟ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَخْبِرْنِي بِمَ أُخِذُوا؟ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ. ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَخْبِرْنِي بِمَ أُخِذُوا؟ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ. (١) فَقَالَ: لَئِنْ قُلْتُ، ، ذَلِكَ إِنَّهُمْ لَيَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّكَ تَنْهَى عَنِ الْغَيِّ وَتَسْتَخْلِي بِهِ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَا قَالَ؟ " فَقَامَ أَخُوهُ أَوْ ابْنُ أَخِيهِ. فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهُ (١) قَالَ: فَقَالَ: " لَقَدْ قُلْتُمُوهَا أَوْ قَائِلُكُمْ، وَلَئِنْ كُنْتُ أَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ إِنَّهُ لَعَلَيَّ وَمَا هُوَ عَلَيْكُمْ خَلُّوا لَهُ عَنْ جِيرَانِهِ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that once his father or uncle said to the Prophet (ﷺ), "Why have my neighbors been seized?" The Prophet (ﷺ) turned away from his words. This happened twice. Then his father or uncle said, "By Allah! If you do this, people will think that you command something and then you yourself violate it." He kept speaking and I was dragging my sheet along as I was going, when the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What was this man saying?" The people informed him that he was saying, "If you do this, people will think that you command something and then you yourself violate it." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Can people say such a thing? Even if I did so, its effect would be upon me, not upon them. Leave his neighbors."
