Hadith 7798

وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلَ ابْنِ شُفْعَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ وَقَعَ الطَّاعُونُ فَقَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ إِنَّهُ رِجْسٌ فَتَفَرَّقُوا عَنْهُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنَ حَسَنَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ صَحِبْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَمْرٌو أَضَلُّ مِنْ بَعِيرِ أَهْلِهِ إِنَّهُ دَعْوَةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ رَبِّكُمْ وَمَوْتُ الصَّالِحِينَ قَبْلَكُمْ فَاجْتَمِعُوا لَهُ وَلَا تَفَرَّقُوا عَنْهُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْعَاصِ فَقَالَ صَدَقَ
(Second chain) Sharjeel bin Shaf’ah narrates that when the plague came, Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) said: This is a punishment, so move away from it. When this statement reached Sayyiduna Sharjeel bin Hasnah (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: I was a companion of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at a time when this Amr was more astray than his household camel. This plague is the supplication of your Prophet and a mercy for you, and it has been the cause of death for the righteous people before you. So, remain together and do not disperse. When this statement reached Sayyiduna Amr (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: Sharjeel has spoken the truth.
