Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3181 — I was sitting in Ariha (Jericho) when
حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرٌ ، قَالَ : نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، قَالَ : نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَالِمٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ ، قَالَ : نَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْلَةَ قَالَ : كُنْتُ جَالِسًا بِأَرِيحَا ، فَمَرَّ بِي وَاثِلَةُ بْنُ الْأَسْقَعِ مُتَوَكِّئًا عَلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الدَّيْلَمِيِّ ، فَأَجْلَسَهُ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ إِلَيَّ ، فَقَالَ : عَجَبًا مَا حَدَّثَنِي الشَّيْخُ ، يَعْنِي : وَاثِلَةَ ، قُلْتُ : مَا حَدَّثَكَ ؟ قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ ، فَأَتَاهُ نَفَرٌ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّ صَاحِبَنَا قَدْ أَوْجَبَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَعْتِقُوا عَنْهُ رَقَبَةً يُعْتِقِ اللهُ بِكُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهَا عُضْوًا مِنْهُ مِنَ النَّارِ .
Ibrahim bin Abi Ablah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I was sitting in Ariha (Jericho) when Sayyiduna Wathilah bin al-Asqa' (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by me, leaning on Abdullah bin al-Daylami (may Allah have mercy on him). He seated him, then he (Abdullah) came to me and said: "What the Shaykh (that is, Sayyiduna Wathilah (may Allah be pleased with him)) has narrated to me is truly astonishing!"
I asked: "What did he narrate to you?" He said that Sayyiduna Wathilah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "We were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the Battle of Tabuk when some people of Banu Sulaym came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah! A companion of ours has made (Hell) obligatory (for himself, because of his sin).' The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Free a slave on his behalf; for every limb of it (the slave) Allah Almighty will free a limb of him (the man) from the Fire.'"
