بَابُ قَوْلِهِ: {وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّى لاَ تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ وَيَكُونَ الدِّينُ لِلَّهِ فَإِنِ انْتَهَوْا فَلاَ عُدْوَانَ إِلاَّ عَلَى الظَّالِمِينَ} :
Allah’s Statement: “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah) and (all and every kind of) worship is for Allah (Alone). But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists and wrong-doers).” (V.2:193)

Narrated Nafi`: During the affliction of Ibn Az-Zubair, two men came to Ibn `Umar and said, "The people are lost, and you are the son of `Umar, and the companion of the Prophet, so what forbids you from coming out?" He said, "What forbids me is that Allah has prohibited the shedding of my brother's blood." They both said, "Didn't Allah say, 'And fight then until there is no more affliction?" He said "We fought until there was no more affliction and the worship is for Allah (Alone while you want to fight until there is affliction and until the worship become for other than Allah."
وَزَادَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ , عَنْ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ , قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي فُلَانٌ ، وَحَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ , عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْمَعَافِرِيِّ , أَنَّ بُكَيْرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَهُ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ , أَنَّ رَجُلًا , أَتَى ابْنَ عُمَرَ , فَقَالَ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ , مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى أَنْ تَحُجَّ عَامًا ، وَتَعْتَمِرَ عَامًا ، وَتَتْرُكَ الْجِهَادَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، وَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا رَغَّبَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ ؟ قَالَ : " يَا ابْنَ أَخِي بُنِيَ الْإِسْلَامُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ إِيمَانٍ بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ، وَالصَّلَاةِ الْخَمْسِ ، وَصِيَامِ رَمَضَانَ ، وَأَدَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ ، وَحَجِّ الْبَيْتِ " , قَالَ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَلَا تَسْمَعُ مَا ذَكَرَ اللَّهُ فِي كِتَابِهِ وَإِنْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ اقْتَتَلُوا فَأَصْلِحُوا بَيْنَهُمَا فَإِنْ بَغَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا عَلَى الأُخْرَى فَقَاتِلُوا الَّتِي تَبْغِي حَتَّى تَفِيءَ إِلَى أَمْرِ اللَّهِ سورة الحجرات آية 9 وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّى لا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ سورة البقرة آية 193 , قَالَ : " فَعَلْنَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَكَانَ الْإِسْلَامُ قَلِيلًا ، فَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ يُفْتَنُ فِي دِينِهِ إِمَّا قَتَلُوهُ وَإِمَّا يُعَذِّبُونَهُ حَتَّى كَثُرَ الْإِسْلَامُ ، فَلَمْ تَكُنْ فِتْنَةٌ " .
‘And Uthman bin Salih narrated in more detail that Abdullah bin Wahb narrated to him, he was informed by so-and-so, Abdullah bin Rabee’ah and Haywah bin Shurayh, they were informed by Bakr bin Amr Mu’afiri, from Bukayr bin Abdullah, from Nafi’, that:
A man (Hakeem) came to Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) and said, “O Abu Abdur-Rahman! What is the matter with you that you perform Hajj one year and ‘Umrah the next year, but do not participate in Jihad in the way of Allah, even though you know how much Allah has encouraged Jihad?”
Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) replied, “My nephew! Islam is built upon five things: to have faith in Allah and His Messenger, to perform the five daily prayers, to fast in Ramadan, to give Zakat, and to perform Hajj.”
He said, “O Abu Abdur-Rahman! Do you not know what Allah the Exalted has said in the Book of Allah «وإن طائفتان من المؤمنين اقتتلوا فأصلحوا بينهما»: ‘And if two groups of the believers fight each other, make peace between them.’ Up to Allah’s statement «إلى أمر الله» (and Allah the Exalted’s statement: ‘And fight them’) until there is no more discord.”
Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said, “We fulfilled this obligation during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). At that time, the Muslims were very few and the disbelievers were many, so the disbelievers would corrupt the religion of the Muslims, sometimes killing the Muslims, sometimes causing them harm, until the Muslims became many and the discord disappeared.”

قَالَ : فَمَا قَوْلُكَ فِي عَلِيٍّ وَعُثْمَانَ , قَالَ : " أَمَّا عُثْمَانُ , فَكَأَنَّ اللَّهَ عَفَا عَنْهُ ، وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَكَرِهْتُمْ أَنْ تَعْفُوا عَنْهُ ، وَأَمَّا عَلِيٌّ , فَابْنُ عَمِّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَخَتَنُهُ ، وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ ، فَقَالَ : " هَذَا بَيْتُهُ حَيْثُ تَرَوْنَ " .
Then that person asked, "Well, tell me, what is your belief regarding Uthman and Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both)?" He replied, "Allah has forgiven Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) for his fault, but you do not consider this forgiveness to be good. As for Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), he was the cousin of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and his son-in-law." And with a gesture of his hand, he indicated, "Look, his house was adjacent to the house of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)."
