حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ:، أَنَّ الصُّبَيَّ بْنَ مَعْبَدٍ، كَانَ نَصْرَانِيًّا تَغْلِبِيًّا أَعْرَابِيًّا فَأَسْلَمَ، فَسَأَلَ: أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ أَفْضَلُ؟ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ. فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: حَجَجْتَ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا. فَقِيلَ: حُجَّ وَاعْتَمِرْ، ثُمَّ جَاهِدْ. فَانْطَلَقَ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِالْحَوَائطِ أَهَلَّ بِهِمَا (٣) جَمِيعًا، فَرَآهُ زَيْدُ بْنُ صُوحَانَ وَسَلْمَانُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ، فَقَالا: لَهُوَ أَضَلُّ مِنْ جَمَلِهِ، أَوْ مَا هُوَ بِأَهْدَى مِنْ، ، نَاقَتِهِ. فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِقَوْلِهِمَا فَقَالَ: هُدِيتَ لِسُنَّةِ نَبِيِّكَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.، قَالَ الْحَكَمُ: فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي وَائِلٍ: حَدَّثَكَ الصُّبَيُّ؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ (١) .،

English translation

It was narrated from Abu Wa'il that as-Subayy bin Ma'bad was a Bedouin Taghlibi Christian who became Muslim. He asked:

Which deed is best? He was told: Jihad for the sake of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. He wanted to go for jihad, but it was said to him: Have you done Hajj? He said no. So it was said to him: Go for Haji and 'Umrah, then go for jihad. So he set out and when he was in al-Hawa'it, he entered ihram for both Haji and 'Umrah together, Zaid bin Soohan and Salman bin Rabee'ah saw him and said: He is more astray than his camel, or he is no more guided than his camel. He went to ‘Umar and told him what they had said. He said: You have been guided to the Sunnah of your Prophet (ﷺ) . Al-Hakam said: I said to Abu Wa'il. Did as-Subayy tell you that? He said: Yes
