حَدِيثُ قُتَيْلَةَ بِنْتِ صَيْفِيٍّ (١)، ٢٧٠٩٣ - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ (٢) ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَعْبَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ قُتَيْلَةَ بِنْتِ صَيْفِيٍّ الْجُهَنِيَّةِ (٣) قَالَتْ: أَتَى حَبْرٌ مِنَ الْأَحْبَارِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، نِعْمَ الْقَوْمُ أَنْتُمْ، لَوْلَا أَنَّكُمْ تُشْرِكُونَ، قَالَ: " سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ "، قَالَ: تَقُولُونَ إِذَا حَلَفْتُمْ وَالْكَعْبَةِ، قَالَتْ: فَأَمْهَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنَّهُ قَدْ قَالَ: فَمَنْ حَلَفَ فَلْيَحْلِفْ بِرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، نِعْمَ الْقَوْمُ أَنْتُمْ، لَوْلَا أَنَّكُمْ تَجْعَلُونَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا، قَالَ: " سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ "، قَالَ: تَقُولُونَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ وَشِئْتَ، قَالَ: فَأَمْهَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنَّهُ قَدْ قَالَ، فَمَنْ قَالَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ فَلْيَفْصِلْ بَيْنَهُمَا ثُمَّ شِئْتَ " (٤)، ، .................................، ،

English translation
It is narrated from Qateelah (may Allah be pleased with her) that a great scholar from the People of the Book came to the presence of the Prophet and said, "O Muhammad! You would be the best nation if you did not commit shirk (associate partners with Allah)." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Subhan Allah! How is that?" He said, "You swear by the Ka'bah when taking oaths." The Prophet (ﷺ) remained silent for a while and then said, "He is speaking the truth, so from now on, whoever swears an oath should swear by the Lord of the Ka'bah." Then he said, "O Muhammad! If you did not associate anyone with Allah, you would be the best nation." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Subhan Allah! How is that?" He said, "You say, 'What Allah willed and you willed.'" The Prophet (ﷺ) remained silent for a while and then said, "He is speaking the truth, so whoever says this should make a distinction between the two phrases."
