حَدَّثَنَا
يَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا
الْمُفَضَّلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ فَضَالَةَ الْمِصْرِيَّ ، عَنْ
عَيَّاشِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ الْقِتْبَانِيِّ ، أَنَّ
شِيَيْمَ بْنَ بَيْتَانَ أَخْبَرَهُ ، عَنْ
شَيْبَانَ الْقِتْبَانِيِّ ، قَالَ : إِنَّ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنَ مُخَلَّدٍ اسْتَعْمَلَ رُوَيْفِعَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ عَلَى أَسْفَلِ الْأَرْضِ ، قَالَ شَيْبَانُ : فَسِرْنَا مَعَهُ مِنْ كَوْمِ شَرِيكٍ إِلَى عَلْقَمَاءَ ، أَوْ مِنْ عَلْقَمَاءَ إِلَى كُومِ شَرِيكٍ يُرِيدُ عَلْقَامَ . فَقَالَ
رُوَيْفِعٌ : إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُنَا فِي زَمَنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، لَيَأْخُذُ نِضْوَ أَخِيهِ عَلَى أَنَّ لَهُ النِّصْفَ مِمَّا يَغْنَمُ وَلَنَا النِّصْفُ . وَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُنَا لَيَطِيرُ ، لَهُ النَّصْلُ وَالرِّيشُ وَلِلْآخَرِ الْقِدْحُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يَا رُوَيْفِعُ ، لَعَلَّ الْحَيَاةَ سَتَطُولُ بِكَ بَعْدِي ، فَأَخْبِرِ النَّاسَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ عَقَدَ لِحْيَتَهُ أَوْ تَقَلَّدَ وَتَرًا أَوِ اسْتَنْجَى بِرَجِعِ دَابَّةٍ أَوْ عَظْمٍ ، فَإِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْهُ بَرِيءٌ " .
Narrated Ruwayfi ibn Thabit: Shayban al-Qatbani reported that Maslamah ibn Mukhallad made Ruwayfi ibn Thabit the governor of the lower parts (of Egypt). He added: We travelled with him from Kum Sharik to Alqamah or from Alqamah to Kum Sharik (the narrator doubts) for Alqam. Ruwayfi said: Any one of us would borrow a camel during the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ from the other, on condition that he would give him half the booty, and the other half he would retain himself. Further, one of us received an arrowhead and a feather, and the other an arrow-shaft as a share from the booty. He then reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: You may live for a long time after I am gone, Ruwayfi, so, tell people that if anyone ties his beard or wears round his neck a string to ward off the evil eye, or cleanses himself with animal dung or bone, Muhammad has nothing to do with him.
