Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 10713

عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ أَنَّ صَاحِبًا لَهُ قَالَ : لَوِ انْطَلَقْنَا إِلَى الْمُخْتَارِ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ ; فَإِنَّهُ يَدْعُو إِلَى نَصْرِ أَهْلِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَانْطَلَقْنَا فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ نَهْوِي إِلَيْهِ فِي الْخَوَرْنَقِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ ، فَقَالَ : أَلَا أُرِيكُمْ سَيْفًا ، فَدَعَا بِسَيْفٍ فِي عِلَاقٍ عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَسْرَاجٍ ، وَانْتَضَى السَّيْفَ فَجَرَى الْخَاتَمُ إِلَى أَدْنَاهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ الْخَاتَمُ إِلَى قَائِمِ السَّيْفِ ، فَأَخَذَهُ فَجَعَلَهُ فِي إِصْبَعِهِ ،
فَقُلْتُ : سَاحِرٌ وَاللَّهِ ، فَأَهْوَيْتُ إِلَى قَائِمِ السَّيْفِ فَذَكَرْتُ كَلِمَةَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُسْهِرٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " إِذَا أَمَّنَكَ الرَّجُلُ فَلَا تَقْتُلْهُ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ وَقَالَ : هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ أَبُو مُسْهِرٍ ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُسْهِرٍ وَهُوَ وَهْمٌ ، وَالصَّوَابُ مَا رَوَاهُ السُّدِّيُّ وَغَيْرُهُ ، عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَمِقِ ، وَرَوَاهُ أَيْضًا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ الْحَارِثِيُّ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، عَنْ أَبِي عُكَّاشَةَ ، عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ ، فَوَهِمَ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ ، وَهُوَ هَذَا الْآتِي .
Rifa'ah al-Qitbani narrates that a companion of his said: "It would be good if we went to al-Mukhtar bin Abi Ubayd, for he is calling (people) to support the household of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." So we went and came to him in (the palace of) al-Khawarnaq while he was sitting. He said: "Shall I not show you a sword?" Then he called for a sword which was in a sling, and on it were three layers. He drew the sword from it, and the ring travelled to its near end, then it travelled back towards the sheath of the sword. He took it and put it on his finger. I said: "By Allah, he is a sorcerer!" I leaned towards the hilt of the sword, but then I remembered the statement of Sayyiduna Sulayman bin Mus-hir (may Allah be pleased with him) which he reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that he said: "When a man grants you safety, do not kill him."
Al-Tabarani recorded it and said: Abu Mus-hir narrated it in this way from Sayyiduna Sulayman bin Mus-hir (may Allah be pleased with him), and that is an error; the correct narration is the one which al-Suddi and others narrated from Rifa'ah, from Sayyiduna Amr bin al-Hamiq (may Allah be pleased with him). It was also narrated via Abdullah bin Maysarah al-Harithi al-Wasiti, from Abu Ukkashah, from Rifa'ah; he erred in its chain, and that narration is coming next.
