Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 15835

وَعَنْ سَلْمَانَ قَالَ : كُنْتُ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ أَسَاوِرَةِ فَارِسٍ قَالَ : فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ . قَالَ : فَانْطَلَقْتُ تَرْفَعُنِي أَرْضٌ وَتَخْفِضُنِي أُخْرَى ، حَتَّى مَرَرْتُ عَلَى قَوْمٍ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ فَاسْتَعْبَدُونِي فَبَاعُونِي ، حَتَّى اشْتَرَتْنِي امْرَأَةٌ ، فَسَمِعْتُهُمْ يَذْكُرُونَ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَكَانَ الْعَيْشُ عَزِيزًا ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا : هَبِي لِي يَوْمًا ، قَالَتْ : نَعَمْ قَالَ : فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَاحْتَطَبْتُ حَطَبًا فَبِعْتُهُ ، فَصَنَعْتُ طَعَامًا ، فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَوَضَعْتُهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا ؟ " . قُلْتُ : صَدَقَةٌ ، فَقَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ : " كُلُوا " . وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذِهِ مِنْ عَلَامَاتِهِ .
ثُمَّ مَكَثْتُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ أَمْكُثَ ، فَقُلْتُ لِمَوْلَاتِي : هَبِي لِي يَوْمًا ، قَالَتْ : نَعَمْ ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَاحْتَطَبْتُ حَطَبًا فَبِعْتُهُ بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَصَنَعْتُ طَعَامًا ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهِ ، وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ بَيْنَ أَصْحَابِهِ ، فَوَضَعْتُهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا ؟ " . فَقُلْتُ : هَدِيَّةٌ ، فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ وَقَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ : " خُذُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ " .
وَقُمْتُ فَوَضَعَ رِدَاءَهُ ، فَإِذَا خَاتَمُ النُّبُوَّةِ ، فَقُلْتُ : أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : " وَمَا ذَاكَ ؟ " . فَحَدَّثْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : أَيَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَإِنَّهُ حَدَّثَنِي أَنَّكَ نَبِيٌّ قَالَ : " لَنْ يَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ إِلَّا نَفْسٌ مُسْلِمَةٌ " .
Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him) states: I was from among the sons of the Asawirah of Persia (a particular group is meant). The narrator says: After this he mentioned the whole hadith. He states: Then I set off, passing through various regions, until I passed by some Bedouins. They enslaved me and sold me, until a woman bought me. I heard those people mentioning the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Livelihood was hard to come by in those days. I said to that woman: "Give me a day off." The woman said: "Very well." Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I went, gathered firewood, sold it, then prepared food and brought it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I placed it before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He asked: "What is this?" I said: "This is charity." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to his companions: "Eat." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not eat of it himself. I thought: "This is one of his distinctive signs." Then as long a period passed as Allah willed. Then I said to my mistress: "Give me a day off." The woman said: "Very well." Then I went, gathered firewood, sold it at a higher price than before, and prepared food with it. I brought that food to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); he was at that time sitting among his companions. I placed that food before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He asked: "What is this?" I said: "This is a gift." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stretched out his hand and said to his companions: "You too take, with the name of Allah." I stood up, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) removed his sheet, and there was the Seal of Prophethood. I said: "I bear witness that you are the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is the reason for this?" So I told him about that man. Then I asked him: "O Messenger of Allah, will that man enter Paradise? He had told me that you are a prophet." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "None but a Muslim soul will enter Paradise."
