فَقَالَ عُبَادَةُ لِأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ إِنَّكَ لَمْ تَكُنْ مَعَنَا إِذْ بَايَعْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّا بَايَعْنَاهُ عَلَى السَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ فِي النَّشَاطِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَعَلَى النَّفَقَةِ فِي الْيُسْرِ وَالْعُسْرِ وَعَلَى الْأَمْرِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيِ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَعَلَى أَنْ نَقُولَ فِي اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَلَا نَخَافَ لَوْمَةَ لَائِمٍ فِيهِ وَعَلَى أَنْ نَنْصُرَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا يَثْرِبَ فَنَمْنَعَهُ مِمَّا نَمْنَعُ مِنْهُ أَنْفُسَنَا وَأَزْوَاجَنَا وَأَبْنَاءَنَا وَلَنَا الْجَنَّةُ فَهَذِهِ بَيْعَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّتِي بَايَعْنَا عَلَيْهَا فَمَنْ نَكَثَ فَإِنَّمَا يَنْكُثُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَمَنْ أَوْفَى بِمَا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَفَّى اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بِمَا بَايَعَ عَلَيْهِ نَبِيَّهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَكَتَبَ مُعَاوِيَةُ إِلَى عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ أَنَّ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ الصَّامِتِ قَدْ أَفْسَدَ عَلَيَّ الشَّامَ وَأَهْلَهُ فَإِمَّا تُكِنُّ إِلَيْكَ عُبَادَةَ وَإِمَّا أُخَلِّي بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الشَّامِ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ رَحِّلْ عُبَادَةَ حَتَّى تُرْجِعَهُ إِلَى دَارِهِ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ فَبَعَثَ بِعُبَادَةَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ فِي الدَّارِ وَلَيْسَ فِي الدَّارِ غَيْرُ رَجُلٍ مِنَ السَّابِقِينَ أَوْ مِنَ التَّابِعِينَ قَدْ أَدْرَكَ الْقَوْمَ فَلَمْ يَفْجَأْ عُثْمَانَ إِلَّا وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ فِي جَنْبِ الدَّارِ فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ يَا عُبَادَةَ بْنَ الصَّامِتِ مَا لَنَا وَلَكَ فَقَامَ عُبَادَةُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَيِ النَّاسِ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ”إِنَّهُ سَيَلِي أُمُورَكُمْ بَعْدِي رِجَالٌ يُعَرِّفُونَكُمْ مَا تُنْكِرُونَ وَيُنْكِرُونَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَا تَعْرِفُونَ فَلَا طَاعَةَ لِمَنْ عَصَى اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَلَا تَعْتَلُّوا بِرَبِّكُمْ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Ubada bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said to Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him): Abu Hurairah! You were not present at that time when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) migrated and came to us in Yathrib. We pledged allegiance to him, that we would listen and obey him in every condition, whether active or lazy, and whether in prosperity or adversity, whenever needed, we would spend in every situation, enjoin good and forbid evil, and always speak what pleases Allah Almighty, and would not fear the blame of any blamer. We would help the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with our heart and soul, and would protect him from those things from which we protect our own lives, wives, and children, and in return, we would be granted Paradise. These are the matters of allegiance upon which we pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Whoever violates this, its burden will be upon him. Regarding Allah, the allegiance that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took and gave, who is there who can fulfill his allegiance more than him?
Sayyiduna Mu‘awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to Sayyiduna ‘Uthman bin ‘Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna ‘Ubada (may Allah be pleased with him) has turned the people of Syria against me, so either call ‘Ubada (may Allah be pleased with him) to you, or I will expel him from Syria. Sayyiduna ‘Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to him to send Sayyiduna ‘Ubada (may Allah be pleased with him) back to Madinah, so Sayyiduna Mu‘awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) sent Sayyiduna ‘Ubada (may Allah be pleased with him) back. When he returned to Madinah, Sayyiduna ‘Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) went to his house. In the house, there was only one person from the earliest Muslims, and he too went to the people. Sayyiduna ‘Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting in a corner of the house. He turned towards Sayyiduna ‘Ubada (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: ‘Ubada! What is the matter between you and us? Sayyiduna ‘Ubada (may Allah be pleased with him) stood among the people and said: I heard Abu’l-Qasim Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), say: Soon, people will gain dominance over your affairs, such that what you consider wrong, they will consider right, and what you consider good, they will consider wrong. Whoever disobeys Allah Almighty, he cannot be obeyed. You will not be able to present any excuse before your Lord.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Sayyiduna ‘Ubadah ibn Samit radi Allahu anhu had the honor of traveling from Madinah Munawwarah to Makkah Mukarramah before the Hijrah, accepting Islam, and participating in the First Pledge of ‘Aqabah (Bay‘at ‘Aqabah Ula). On that occasion, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam appointed twelve individuals from among them as naqib, that is, responsible leaders and overseers. Among these nuqaba was Sayyiduna ‘Ubadah ibn Samit radi Allahu anhu. At the beginning of the hadith, Sayyiduna ‘Ubadah is mentioning the matters related to that pledge.
