Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 10576

وَعَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ، وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بَعَثَهُمَا إِلَى الْيَمَنِ ، وَأَمَرَهُمَا أَنْ يُعَلِّمَا النَّاسَ الْقُرْآنَ . قَالَ : فَجَاءَ مُعَاذٌ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى يَزُورُهُ فَإِذَا عِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ مُوَثَّقٌ بِالْحَدِيدِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَخِي ، أَوَبُعِثْنَا نُعَذِّبُ النَّاسَ ، إِنَّمَا بُعِثْنَا نُعَلِّمُهُمْ دِينَهُمْ ، وَنَأْمُرُهُمْ بِمَا يَنْفَعُهُمْ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّهُ أَسْلَمَ ثُمَّ كَفَرَ .
فَقَالَ : وَالَّذِي بَعَثَ مُحَمَّدًا بِالْحَقِّ لَا أَبْرَحُ حَتَّى أَحْرِقَهُ بِالنَّارِ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى : إِنَّ لَنَا عِنْدَهُ بَقِيَّةً ، فَقَالَ : وَاللَّهِ لَا أَبْرَحُ أَبَدًا ، قَالَ : فَأُتِيَ بِحَطَبٍ فَأَلْهَبَ فِيهِ النَّارَ وَكَتَّفَهُ وَطَرَحَهُ .
قُلْتُ : لَهُمَا فِي الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
It is reported about Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent both of them to Yemen and ordered them both to teach the people the Qur'an. The narrator says: Once Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) came to visit Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him), and found with him a man bound in iron chains. Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O my brother! Were we sent to torment people? We were sent only to teach people the religion and to command them with what benefits them." Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "This man first became Muslim and then disbelieved." Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By the One who sent Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) with the truth! I will not move until I burn him with fire." Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "We still have some remaining (matter) with him?" Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By Allah, I will not leave." The narrator says: Then firewood was brought and set alight; he seized him by the shoulders and threw him into the fire.
(Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: In the "Sahih" there is a hadith reported from the two of them, other than this hadith.
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
