Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 9800

وَعَنِ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ الْعَلَاءِ الْحَضَرْمِيِّ قَالَ : شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِيمَا عَهَدَ إِلَى الْعَلَاءِ حِينَ وَجَّهَهُ إِلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ قَالَ : " وَلَا يَحِلُّ لِأَحَدٍ جَهِلَ الْفَرْضَ وَالسُّنَنَ ، وَيَحِلُّ لَهُ مَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ " . وَكَتَبَ لِلْعَلَاءِ : " أَنْ سُنُّوا بِالْمَجُوسِ سُنَّةَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ مَنْ لَمْ أَعْرِفْهُمْ .
Sayyiduna Muslim bin al-Ala al-Hadrami (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I was present with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he gave instructions to Sayyiduna al-Ala (may Allah be pleased with him) while sending him to Bahrain. He said: It is not lawful for anyone to be ignorant of the obligations and the sunnahs; whatever is besides that is lawful for him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had this written for Sayyiduna al-Ala (may Allah be pleased with him): Treat the Magians as the People of the Book are treated.
This narration has been recorded by Imam al-Tabarani. Its chain contains narrators whom I do not know.
