Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ بَهْزِ بْنِ حَكِيمِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ: أَخَذَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَاسًا مِنْ قَوْمِي فِي تُهْمَةٍ فَحَبَسَهُمْ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قَوْمِي إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ، فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ عَلَامَ تَحْبِسُ جِيرَتِي؟ فَصَمَتَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ نَاسًا لَيَقُولُونَ إِنَّكَ تَنْهَى عَنِ الشَّرِّ، وَتَسْتَخْلِي بِهِ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَا يَقُولُ؟ " قَالَ: فَجَعَلْتُ أَعْرِضُ بَيْنَهُمَا بِالْكَلَامِ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَسْمَعَهَا، فَيَدْعُوَ عَلَى قَوْمِي دَعْوَةً، لَا يُفْلِحُونَ بَعْدَهَا أَبَدًا، فَلَمْ يَزَلِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهِ حَتَّى فَهِمَهَا فَقَالَ: " قَدْ قَالُوهَا أَوْ قَائِلُهَا مِنْهُمْ، وَاللهِ لَوْ فَعَلْتُ لَكَانَ عَلَيَّ، وَمَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِمْ خَلُّوا لَهُ عَنْ جِيرَانِهِ " (١)، ،

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 went, when the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What was this man saying?" The people informed him, "He was saying that 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 this, its effect would be upon me, not upon them. Leave his neighbors alone."
