Majma al-Zawaid 10373 — Fighting the Persians and the Romans

وَعَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ قَالَ : سَمِعَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ - يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ - رَجُلًا يَقُولُ : أَيْنَ الزَّاهِدُونَ فِي الدُّنْيَا الرَّاغِبُونَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ ؟ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : أُولَئِكَ ذَهَبُوا ، أَصْحَابُ الْجَابِيَةِ . اشْتَرَطَ خَمْسُمِائَةٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَنْ لَا يَرْجِعُوا حَتَّى يُقْتَلُوا ، فَحَلَقُوا رُءُوسَهُمْ فَلَقُوا الْعَدُوَّ فَقُتِلُوا ، إِلَّا مُخْبِرًا عَنْهُمْ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ وَهُوَ كَثِيرُ الْخَطَأِ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Abu Wa'il narrates: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) heard a man saying: "Where are those who renounce this world and long for the Hereafter?" Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Those people have gone; they were the people of al-Jabiyah. Five hundred Muslims made it a condition that they would not return until they were martyred. They shaved their heads, faced the enemy, and were all martyred, except the one man who brought the news about them."
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Ali bin Asim, who makes many mistakes. The rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
