حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، ثَنَا أَسْبَاطٌ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ ، قَالَ : رَجَعْتُ مَعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ مِنْ صِفِّينَ ، فَكَانَ مُعَاوِيَةُ وَأَبُو الْأَعْوَرِ السُّلَمِيُّ يَسِيرُونَ فِي جَانِبٍ ، وَعَمْرٌو وَابْنُهُ يَسِيرَانِ فِي جَانِبٍ ، فَكُنْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ ، لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي ، فَكُنْتُ أَحْيَانًا أُوضِعُ إِلَى هَؤُلَاءِ ، وَأَحْيَانًا أُوضِعُ إِلَى هَؤُلَاءِ ، فَسَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا ، يَقُولُ لِأَبِيهِ : يَا أَبَتِ ، أَمَا سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ لِعَمَّارٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ حِينَ كَانَ يَبْنِي الْمَسْجِدَ : إِنَّكَ لَحَرِيصٌ عَلَى الْأَجْرِ ؟ قَالَ : أَجَلْ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، وَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنَّكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ ، وَتَقْتُلُكَ الْفِئَةُ الْبَاغِيَةُ ، قَالَ : بَلَى ، قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ ، قَالَ : فَلِمَ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ ؟ قَالَ : فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَى مَا يَقُولُ هَذَا ؟ قَالَ : فَذَكَرَهُ ، قَالَ : وَيْحَكَ ، مَا تَزَالُ تَدْحَضُ فِي قَوْلِكَ ، أَنَحْنُ قَتَلْنَاهُ ؟ إِنَّمَا قَتَلَهُ مَنْ جَاءَ بِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Harith bin Nawfal (may Allah be pleased with him) that he related: I was returning from Siffin with Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah and Abu al-A'war al-Sulami were riding on one side, while Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As and his son (Abdullah) were riding on the other side. I was right between them, and there was no one there besides me; sometimes I would speed up my mount and draw near to these, and sometimes I would reach those. I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) say to his father: "O my father! Did you not hear the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say to Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) when he was building the mosque: 'You are indeed very eager for reward'?" He said: "Yes (may Allah be pleased with him)." And he (peace and blessings be upon him) had (further) said: "You are certainly among the people of Paradise, and a rebellious group will kill you." He replied: "Yes, I heard this saying." Abdullah asked: "Then why did you people kill him?" The narrator says: At this he (Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As) turned to Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! Do you hear what this one (my son) is saying?" So he repeated that statement. Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Woe to you! You keep stumbling in your speech. Did we kill him? He was only killed by those who brought him (with them to the war)."
