Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 5822

عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ أَمِيرًا مِنْ أُمَرَاءِ الْفِتْنَةِ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ ، وَكَانَ قَدْ ذَهَبَ بَصَرُ جَابِرٍ فَقِيلَ لِجَابِرٍ : لَوْ تَنَحَّيْتَ عَنْهُ ، فَخَرَجَ يَمْشِي بَيْنَ ابْنَيْهِ فَنُكِبَ فَقَالَ : تَعِسَ مَنْ أَخَافَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ ابْنَاهُ أَوْ أَحَدُهُمَا : يَا أَبَتِ ، وَكَيْفَ أَخَافَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَقَدْ مَاتَ ؟ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " مَنْ أَخَافَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ فَقَدْ أَخَافَ مَا بَيْنَ جَنْبَيَّ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
It is reported about Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that during the time of the trial (fitnah) a governor came to Madinah. At that time the eyesight of Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) had gone. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) was told: "It would be better if you walked a little aside." He was walking between his two sons, and he was pushed back. He said: "May the one who frightened the Messenger of Allah be ruined!" His two sons, or one of them, said: "Father, how did this man frighten the Messenger of Allah when he has passed away?" Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Whoever frightens the people of Madinah has frightened what lies between my two sides (that is, me)."
Imam Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
