اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ عَنِ ابْنِ سَلَامٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَهُمْ : إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَمْ تَزَلْ مُحِيطَةً بِمَدِينَتِكُمْ هَذِهِ مُنْذُ قَدِمَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْيَوْمِ ، وَاللهِ لَئِنْ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ لَيَذْهَبُنَّ ثُمَّ لَا يَعُودُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَبَدًا ، وَإِنَّ السَّيْفَ لَمْ يَزَلْ مَغْمُودًا فِيكُمْ ، فَوَاللهِ لَئِنْ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ لَيَسُلَّنَّهُ اللهُ عَلَيْكُمْ ، ثُمَّ لَا يُغْمَدُ عَنْكُمْ أَبَدًا - أَوْ قَالَ : إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ - وَمَا قُتِلَ نَبِيٌّ إِلَّا قُتِلَ بِهِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا ، وَلَا قُتِلَ خَلِيفَةٌ إِلَّا قُتِلَ بِهِ خَمْسَةٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ أَلْفًا ، وَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ قُتِلَ عَلَى دَمِ يَحْيَى بْنِ زَكَرِيَّا سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him) that he addressed the people and said: "Indeed, the angels have been continuously surrounding this city of yours (Madinah) from the time the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came here, and this has continued until this day. By Allah! If you martyr him (Sayyiduna Uthman, may Allah be pleased with him), these angels will depart from here and will never return to you. And surely the sword has until now remained in its sheath among you; so by Allah! if you kill him, Allah Almighty will draw the sword against you, and then it will never be sheathed for you again (or he said: until the Day of Resurrection). And no prophet was ever killed but seventy thousand people were killed in retaliation for him, and no caliph was ever killed but thirty-five thousand people were killed in return for him. And he also mentioned that seventy thousand people were killed in return for the blood of Sayyiduna Yahya bin Zakariyya (peace be upon them both)."
