Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 16186

وَعَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ : لَمَّا أَتَيْنَا النَّجَاشِيَّ فَأَرَدْنَا الْخُرُوجَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ ، حَمَلَنَا وَزَوَّدَنَا وَأَعْطَانَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : أَخْبِرُوا صَاحِبَكُمْ بِمَا صَنَعْتُ بِكُمْ ، وَهَذِهِ رُسُلِي مَعَكُمْ ، وَأَنَا أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقُلْ لَهُ يَسْتَغْفِرُ لِي .
قَالَ جَعْفَرٌ : فَخَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ ، فَتَلَقَّانِي النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَاعْتَنَقَنِي ، وَقَالَ : " مَا أَدْرِي أَنَا بِفَتْحِ خَيْبَرَ أَفْرَحُ ، أَمْ بِقُدُومِ جَعْفَرٍ " . ثُمَّ جَلَسَ ، فَقَامَ رَسُولُ النَّجَاشِيِّ فَقَالَ : هَذَا جَعْفَرٌ فَسَلْهُ عَمَّا صَنَعَ بِهِ صَاحِبُنَا ، فَقَالَ جَعْفَرٌ : قَدْ فَعَلَ بِنَا ، وَحَمَلَنَا ، وَزَوَّدَنَا ، وَشَهِدَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، وَقَالَ لَنَا : قُلْ لَهُ يَسْتَغْفِرُ لِي ، فَدَعَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ : " اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِلنَّجَاشِيِّ " . فَقَالَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ : آمِينَ قَالَ : فَقُلْتُ لِلرَّسُولِ : انْطَلِقْ فَأَبْلِغْ صَاحِبَكَ مَا رَأَيْتَ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - .
رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ ، وَفِيهِ أَسَدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ، وَمُجَالِدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، وَثَّقَهُمَا غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ وَضَعَّفَهُمَا جَمَاعَةٌ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Ja'far bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When we came to the Negus and then intended to return, he provided us with mounts, gave us provisions for the journey and gave us other things, and then said: "Tell your master about the way I have treated you. These envoys of mine are with you. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah Almighty and that he is the Messenger of Allah. Tell him to pray for my forgiveness."
Sayyiduna Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We left him and travelled until we reached Madinah. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) met me, he embraced me and said: "I do not know whether I am more delighted by the conquest of Khaybar or by the arrival of Ja'far." Then he sat down, and the envoy of the Negus stood up and said: "Here is Sayyiduna Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him); ask him how our master treated them." Sayyiduna Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "He did such and such for us; he gave us mounts and provisions for the journey, and he bore witness that there is no god but Allah Almighty and that you are the Messenger of Allah, and he said: 'Tell him to pray for my forgiveness.'" So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made this supplication three times: "O Allah! Forgive the Negus!" And the Muslims said Amin to it. Sayyiduna Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I said to the envoy: "Now go and tell your master what you have seen of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)."
Al-Bazzar recorded it; its chain contains Asad bin Amr and Mujalid bin Sa'id; more than one scholar has declared them both thiqah (trustworthy) and a group has declared them both da'if (weak), and the rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
