حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي غَالِبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عِنْدَ الْجَمْرَةِ الْأُولَى فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّ الْجِهَادِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ وَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ. ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ عِنْدَ الْجَمْرَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ،، فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ (٣) : فَلَمَّا رَمَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَمْرَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ وَوَضَعَ رِجْلَهُ، ، فِي الْغَرْزِ قَالَ: " أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ؟ " قَالَ: " كَلِمَةُ عَدْلٍ عِنْدَ إِمَامٍ جَائِرٍ " (١)،

It is narrated from Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) was at that time throwing pebbles at the Jamarat. He asked this question: "O Messenger of Allah! Which jihad is the most beloved to Allah Almighty?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) remained silent. Then he came again near the second Jamrah and repeated the same question. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) again remained silent. Then he came again near the third Jamrah and repeated the same question. So the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: "That word of truth which is spoken before a tyrant ruler."
