Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 421

وَعَنْ صِلَةَ بْنِ زُفَرَ قَالَ : قُلْنَا لِحُذَيْفَةَ : كَيْفَ عَرَفْتَ أَمْرَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ وَلَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَلَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَلَا عُمَرُ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ - ؟ قَالَ : إِنِّي كُنْتُ أَسِيرُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَنَامَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ ، فَسَمِعْتُ نَاسًا مِنْهُمْ يَقُولُونَ : لَوْ طَرَحْنَاهُ عَنْ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَانْدَقَّتْ عُنُقُهُ فَاسْتَرَحْنَا مِنْهُ ، فَسِرْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَهُ ، وَجَعَلْتُ أَقْرَأُ وَأَرْفَعُ صَوْتِي فَانْتَبَهَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : " مَنْ هَذَا ؟ " فَقُلْتُ : حُذَيْفَةُ . قَالَ : " مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ ؟ " . قُلْتُ : فُلَانٌ وَفُلَانٌ حَتَّى عَدَدْتُهُمْ . قَالَ : " وَسَمِعْتَ مَا قَالُوا ؟ " . قُلْتُ : نَعَمْ ، وَلِذَلِكَ سِرْتُ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُمْ . قَالَ : " فَإِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ فُلَانًا وَفُلَانًا " حَتَّى عَدَّ أَسْمَاءَهُمْ " مُنَافِقُونَ ، لَا تُخْبِرَنَّ أَحَدًا " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَفِيهِ مُجَالِدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، وَقَدِ اخْتَلَطَ وَضَعَّفَهُ جَمَاعَةٌ .
Silah bin Zufar relates: We said to Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him): How did you come to know the matter of the hypocrites, when none of the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) could recognise it, not even Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) (could recognise it)? Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Once I was walking behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fell asleep on his mount. Meanwhile I heard some people saying: If we throw him (that is, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)) off his mount, his neck will break and we will be rid of him. So I kept walking between those people and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and I began reciting in a loud voice, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) woke up. He asked: "Who is this?" I said: Hudhayfah! He asked: "Who are these people?" I told him: So-and-so, and so-and-so, until I had told him about all of them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Did you hear what they said?" I said: Yes! That is why I am walking between you and these people. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Those people are so-and-so and so-and-so", until the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had listed their names, and he said: "These are hypocrites; do not tell anyone."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; its chain contains Mujalid bin Sa'id, who suffered from confusion (ikhtilat) in his memory, and a group of scholars declared him da'if (weak).
