Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 13287

وَعَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ : كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ وَفْدُ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ ، عَلَيْهِمْ قَيْسُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ وَعَمْرُو بْنُ الْأَهْتَمِ ، وَالزِّبْرِقَانُ بْنُ بَدْرٍ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لِعَمْرِو بْنِ الْأَهْتَمِ : " مَا تَقُولُ فِي الزِّبْرِقَانِ بْنِ بَدْرٍ ؟ " فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مُطَاعٌ فِي أَنْدِيَتِهِ ، شَدِيدُ الْعَارِضَةِ ، مَانِعٌ لِمَا وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِهِ . فَقَالَ الزِّبْرِقَانُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّهُ لَيَعْلَمُ مِنِّي أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا وَصَفَنِي بِهِ ، وَلَكِنَّهُ حَسَدَنِي . فَقَالَ عَمْرٌو : وَاللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّهُ لَزَمِنُ الْمُرُوءَةِ ، ضَيِّقُ الْعَطَنِ ، لَئِيمُ الْخَالِ ، أَحْمَقُ الْوَلَدِ ، وَاللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَا كَذَبْتُ أَوَّلًا وَلَقَدْ صَدَقْتُ آخِرًا ، وَلَكِنِّي رَضِيتُ فَقُلْتُ أَحْسَنَ مَا عَلِمْتُ ، وَغَضِبْتُ فَقُلْتُ أَقْبَحَ مَا عَلِمْتُ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِنَّ مِنَ الْبَيَانِ لَسِحْرًا ، وَإِنَّ مِنَ الشِّعْرِ لَحِكَمًا " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ وَالْكَبِيرِ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى الْإِصْطَخْرِيِّ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ كَثِيرِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، وَلَمْ أَعْرِفْهُمَا وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when the delegation of Banu Tamim came to him, led by Sayyiduna Qays bin Asim, Sayyiduna Amr bin al-Ahtam and Sayyiduna al-Zibriqan bin Badr (may Allah be pleased with them). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Amr bin al-Ahtam (may Allah be pleased with him): "What do you say about al-Zibriqan bin Badr?" He said: "O Messenger of Allah! He is obeyed in his gatherings, fierce in contention, and a protector of whatever is behind his back." Al-Zibriqan said: "O Messenger of Allah! He knows more about me than what he has described of me, but he envies me." Amr said: "By Allah, O Messenger of Allah! He is crippled in chivalry, narrow in hospitality, base on his mother's side, and foolish as a son. By Allah, O Messenger of Allah! I did not speak falsely the first time, and I have spoken the truth the last time too. When I was pleased, I said the best of what I knew about him, and when I became angry, I said the worst of what I knew about him." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, some eloquence is magic, and some poetry is wisdom."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat and al-Mu'jam al-Kabir via Muhammad bin Musa al-Istakhri from al-Hasan bin Kathir bin Yahya bin Abi Kathir, and I do not know either of them. The rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
