حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ , حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ , عَنْ عَاصِمٍ , عَنْ السُّمَيْطِ بْنِ السَّمِيرِ , عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ , قَالَ : أَتَى نَافِعُ بْنُ الْأَزْرَقِ وَأَصْحَابُهُ , فَقَالُوا : هَلَكْتَ يَا عِمْرَانُ , قَالَ : مَا هَلَكْتُ , قَالُوا : بَلَى , قَالَ : مَا الَّذِي أَهْلَكَنِي ؟ قَالُوا : قَالَ اللَّهُ :وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّى لا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ وَيَكُونَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ سورة الأنفال آية 39 , قَالَ : قَدْ قَاتَلْنَاهُمْ حَتَّى نَفَيْنَاهُمْ فَكَانَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ , إِنْ شِئْتُمْ حَدَّثْتُكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , قَالُوا : وَأَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , قَالَ : نَعَمْ , شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ بَعَثَ جَيْشًا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ , فَلَمَّا لَقُوهُمْ قَاتَلُوهُمْ قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا , فَمَنَحُوهُمْ أَكْتَافَهُمْ , فَحَمَلَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ لُحْمَتِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِالرُّمْحِ , فَلَمَّا غَشِيَهُ , قَالَ : أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ إِنِّي مُسْلِمٌ , فَطَعَنَهُ فَقَتَلَهُ , فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , هَلَكْتُ , قَالَ : وَمَا الَّذِي صَنَعْتَ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ , فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِالَّذِي صَنَعَ , فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَهَلَّا شَقَقْتَ عَنْ بَطْنِهِ فَعَلِمْتَ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ " , قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , لَوْ شَقَقْتُ بَطْنَهُ لَكُنْتُ أَعْلَمُ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ , قَالَ : " فَلَا أَنْتَ قَبِلْتَ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ , وَلَا أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ " , قَالَ : فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا حَتَّى مَاتَ , فَدَفَنَّاهُ فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ , فَقَالُوا : لَعَلَّ عَدُوًّا نَبَشَهُ , فَدَفَنَّاهُ ثُمَّ أَمَرْنَا غِلْمَانَنَا يَحْرُسُونَهُ , فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ , فَقُلْنَا : لَعَلَّ الْغِلْمَانَ نَعَسُوا , فَدَفَنَّاهُ ثُمَّ حَرَسْنَاهُ بِأَنْفُسِنَا , فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ , فَأَلْقَيْنَاهُ فِي بَعْضِ تِلْكَ الشِّعَابِ .
´It was narrated from Sumait bin Sumair, that ‘Imran bin Husain said:` “Nafi’ bin Azraq and his companions came and said: ‘You are doomed, O ‘Imran!’ He (‘Imran) said: ‘I am not doomed.’ They said: ‘Yes you are.’ I said: ‘Why am I doomed?’ They said: ‘Allah says: “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism, i.e., worshipping others besides Allah), and the religion (worship) will be all for Allah Alone.”[8:39] He said: ‘We fought them until they were defeated and the religion was all for Allah Alone. If you wish, I will tell you a Hadith that I heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ They said: ‘Did you (really) hear it from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’ He said: ‘Yes. I was with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he had sent an army of the Muslims to the idolaters. When they met them they fought them fiercely, and they (the idolaters) gave them their shoulders (i.e., turned and fled). A man among my kin attacked an idolator man with a spear, and when he was defeated he said: “I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, I am a Muslim.” But he stabbed him and killed him. He came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: “O Messenger of Allah, I am doomed.” He said “What is it that you have done?” one or two times. He told him what he had done and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: “Why didn’t you cut open his belly and find out what was in his heart?” He said: “O Messenger of Allah, I wish I had cut open his belly and could have known what was in his heart.” He said: “You did not accept what he said, and you could not have known what was in his heart!” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remained silent concerning him (that man), and a short while later he died. We buried him, but the following morning he was on the surface of the earth. They said: “Perhaps an enemy of his disinterred him.” So we buried him (again) and told our slaves to stand guard. But the following morning he was on the surface of the earth again then we said: ‘Perhaps the slaves dozed off.’ So we buried him (again) and stood guard ourselves, but the following morning he was on the surface of the earth (again). So we threw him into one of these mountain passes.’”
Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊
Sects of innovation such as the Khawarij emerged due to not understanding the religion in the correct manner.
➋
The understanding and knowledge of religion possessed by the noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) was correct and complete. Therefore, especially in disputed matters—particularly in matters of creed—the understanding of the Companions (radi Allahu anhum) should be given importance, and issues should be understood in the light of their statements.
➌
The Khawarij rebelled against the Muslim caliphs. This was a wrong step, and it led to turmoil and corruption.
➍
Anyone who claims to be a Muslim should be regarded as a Muslim, and should be treated as Muslims are treated. If something becomes apparent from him that proves his disbelief, then he can be declared an apostate (murtadd) and punished accordingly. However, declaring someone a disbeliever merely on the basis of doubt or suspicion is a grave mistake.
➎
Allah, the Exalted, sometimes gives the punishment for a mistake in this world as well, so that others may take heed.
