Hadith 42
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ بَشِيرِ بْنِ ذَكْوَانَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ يَعْنِى ابْنَ زَبْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي الْمُطَاعِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْعِرْبَاضَ بْنَ سَارِيَةَ ، يَقُولُ : قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ ، فَوَعَظَنَا مَوْعِظَةً بَلِيغَةً وَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ ، وَذَرَفَتْ مِنْهَا الْعُيُونُ ، فَقِيلَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَعَظْتَنَا مَوْعِظَةَ مُوَدِّعٍ ، فَاعْهَدْ إِلَيْنَا بِعَهْدٍ ، فَقَالَ : " عَلَيْكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ ، وَالسَّمْعِ ، وَالطَّاعَةِ ، وَإِنْ عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا ، وَسَتَرَوْنَ مِنْ بَعْدِي اخْتِلَافًا شَدِيدًا ، فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِسُنَّتِي ، وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ ، عَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ ، وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْأُمُورَ الْمُحْدَثَاتِ ، فَإِنَّ كُلَّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ " .
´Yahya bin Abu Muta' said:` I heard 'Irbad bin Sariyah say: 'One day, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood up among us and delivered a deeply moving speech to us that melted our hearts and caused our eyes to overflow with tears. It was said to him: 'O Messenger of Allah, you have delivered a speech of farewell, so enjoin something upon us.' He said: 'I urge you to fear Allah, and to listen and obey, even if (your leader) is an Abyssinian slave. After I am gone, you will see great conflict. I urge you to adhere to my Sunnah and the path of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs, and cling stubbornly to it. And beware of newly-invented matters, for every innovation is a going astray.'"
Hadith 43
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ بِشْرِ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ ، وَإِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ السَّوَّاقُ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ ضَمْرَةَ بْنِ حَبِيبٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو السُّلَمِيِّ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ الْعِرْبَاضَ بْنَ سَارِيَةَ ، يَقُولُ : وَعَظَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، مَوْعِظَةً ذَرَفَتْ مِنْهَا الْعُيُونُ ، وَوَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ ، فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَمَوْعِظَةُ مُوَدِّعٍ ، فَمَاذَا تَعْهَدُ إِلَيْنَا ؟ قَالَ : " قَدْ تَرَكْتُكُمْ عَلَى الْبَيْضَاءِ ، لَيْلُهَا كَنَهَارِهَا ، لَا يَزِيغُ عَنْهَا بَعْدِي إِلَّا هَالِكٌ ، مَنْ يَعِشْ مِنْكُمْ فَسَيَرَى اخْتِلَافًا كَثِيرًا ، فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِمَا عَرَفْتُمْ مِنْ سُنَّتِي ، وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ ، عَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالطَّاعَةِ ، وَإِنْ عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا ، فَإِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُ كَالْجَمَلِ الْأَنِفِ ، حَيْثُمَا قِيدَ انْقَادَ " .
´It was narrated from 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Amr As-Sulami that:` He heard Al-'Irbad bin Sariyah say: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) delivered a moving speech to us which made our eyes flow with tears and made our hearts melt. We said: 'O Messenger of Allah. This is a speech of farewell. What did you enjoin upon us?' He said: 'I am leaving you upon a (path of) brightness whose night is like its day. No one will deviate from it after I am gone but one who is doomed. Whoever among you lives will see great conflict. I urge you to adhere to what you know of my Sunnah and the path of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs, and cling stubbornly to it. And you must obey, even if (your leader is) an Abyssinian leader. For the true believer is like a camel with a ring in its nose; wherever it is driven, it complies."
Hadith 44
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَكِيمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَوْرُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ الْعِرْبَاضِ بْنِ سَارِيَةَ ، قَال : صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ ، فَوَعَظَنَا مَوْعِظَةً بَلِيغَةً ، فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ .
´It was narrated from 'Irbad bin Sariyah said:` "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led us in Fajr (morning) prayer, then he turned to us and delivered an eloquent speech". And he mentioned something similar (as no.43)
