أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ، ثَنَا أَبُو سِنَانٍ عِيسَى بْنُ سِنَانٍ ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ شَدَّادِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ قَالَ : ذَكَرَ مُعَاوِيَةُ الْفِرَارَ مِنَ الطَّاعُونِ فِي خُطْبَةٍ ، فَقَالَ عُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : " كَذَبْتَ ، أُمُّكَ هِنْدٌ هِيَ أَعْلَمُ مِنْكَ ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ إِلَى عُبَادَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَنَفَرَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ مَعَهُ ، فَاحْتَبَسَهُمْ وَدَخَلَ عُبَادَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ : أَلَمْ تَتَّقِ اللهَ تَعَالَى وَتَسْتَحْيِي إِمَامَكَ ، كَذَّبْتَنِي عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ؟ فَقَالَ عُبَادَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : " أَلَيْسَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ أَنِّي بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ أَنِّي لَا أَخَافُ فِي اللهِ لَوْمَةَ لَائِمٍ ، فَكَيْفَ إِذَا كَذَبْتُ عَلَى اللهِ تَعَالَى ؟ " ثُمَّ خَرَجَ مُعَاوِيَةُ عِنْدَ الْعَصْرِ فَصَلَّى ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِقَائِمَةِ الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَالَ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، إِنِّي ذَكَرْتُ لَكُمْ حَدِيثًا عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَكَذَّبَنِي عُبَادَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، فَدَخَلْتُ الْبَيْتَ فَسَأَلْتُ ; فَإِذَا الْحَدِيثُ كَمَا يُحَدِّثُنِي عُبَادَةُ ، فَاقْتَبِسُوا مِنْهُ فَهُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنِّي " .
It is narrated from Ya'la bin Shaddad bin Aws that Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned fleeing from the plague in a sermon, whereupon Sayyiduna Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) called out: "You have said wrong; your mother Hind was more knowledgeable than you," and then he prayed. After that Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) sent for Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him), and a group of the Ansar also set out with him, but Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) held them back and only Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) went in. Then Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: Do you not fear Allah Almighty and feel shame before your imam, that you publicly contradicted me on the pulpit? Sayyiduna Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: "Do you not know that on the night of the Pledge of Aqabah I gave my pledge at the blessed hand of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that I would not care in the least for the blame of any blamer in the matter of Allah? So how can it be that something wrong is said about the religion of Allah Almighty and I remain silent?" Then Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) came out at the time of Asr and led the prayer, then, holding the leg of the pulpit, said: O people! I narrated a hadith to you on the pulpit, for which Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) contradicted me. When I went home and asked about it, I learnt that the hadith is exactly as Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) was narrating it, so benefit from him, for he has more fiqh and a deeper understanding of the religion than I.
This hadith is sahih in its chain, but Imam al-Bukhari and Imam Muslim did not record it in their two Sahihs.
