Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3845 — Matar Abu Musa (may Allah have mercy on)

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الرَّازِيُّ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ الْبَرَّاءُ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَوْسَجَةَ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي مَطَرٌ أَبُو مُوسَى مَوْلَى آلِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ قَالَ : اجْتَمَعَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَإِنِّي لَقَاعِدٌ مَعَهُمَا ، وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ ، فَقَالَ : أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، إِنَّ النَّاسَ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنِّي أَكْذِبُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ، وَأَيُّ أَرْضٍ تُقِلُّنِي ، وَأَيُّ سَمَاءٍ تُظِلُّنِي ؟ فَقَالَ : أَنْتَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : لَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا ، وَسَلَكَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ وَادِيًا سَلَكْتُ مَعَ الْأَنْصَارِ فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَادِي I " ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ : قَدْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُهُ .
وَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : لَوْلَا الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ ، قَالَ : صَدَقْتَ ، سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُهُ . وَلَمْ يُحَدِّثْ يَوْمَئِذٍ إِلَّا صَدَّقَهُ .
قَالَ : وَسَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنِّي آتِي جَهَنَّمَ ، فَأَضْرِبُ بَابَهَا ، فَيُفْتَحُ لِي ، فَأَدْخُلُ ، فَأَحْمَدُ اللهَ مَحَامِدَ مَا حَمِدَهُ أَحَدٌ قَبْلِي مِثْلَهُ ، وَلَا يَحْمَدُهُ أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي ثُمَّ أُخْرِجُ مِنْهَا مَنْ قَالَ : لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ مُخْلِصًا ، فَيَقُومُ إِلَيَّ نَاسٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَيُنْسَبُونَ لِي ، فَأَعْرِفُ نَسَبَهُمْ ، وَلَا أَعْرِفُ وُجُوهَهُمْ ، وَأَتْرُكُهُمْ فِي النَّارِ I " . قَالَ : وَسَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ : أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِثَلَاثٍ ، لَمْ أَدَعْهُنَّ مُنْذُ فَارَقْتُهُ ، وَلَا أَدَعُهُنَّ حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ : صَوْمُ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ ، وَسُبْحَةُ الضُّحَى ، وَلَا أَنَامُ إِلَّا عَلَى وِتْرٍ .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَوْسَجَةَ إِلَّا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ الْبَرَّاءُ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : أَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ .
Matar Abu Musa (may Allah have mercy on him), who was a freed slave of the family of Talhah bin Ubaydullah, narrates: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) and Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) met together, and I was sitting with them while I was still a boy. Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! People think that I tell lies about the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). (If that were so,) which earth would carry me and which sky would shade me?" Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "You are far better than that." Then Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "If all the people were to travel through one valley and the Ansar through another valley, I would travel with the Ansar in their valley." Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "I too heard this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)."
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) (then) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Were it not for (the virtue of) the emigration (Hijrah), I would have been one of the Ansar." Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "You have spoken the truth; I too heard this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." That day, whatever hadith Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated, Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) confirmed it.
Matar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I heard Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I will come to Hell and knock on its door, and it will be opened for me. I will enter it and praise Allah with such praises as no one before me has praised Him with, and no one after me will. Then I will bring out of it everyone who said 'La ilaha illallah' (There is no god but Allah) sincerely. Then some people of Quraysh will stand up towards me and trace their lineage to me; I will recognise their lineage but I will not recognise their faces, and I will leave them in the Fire." Matar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I also heard Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying: "My close friend (peace and blessings be upon him) advised me with three things which I have never abandoned since I parted from him, nor will I abandon them until I meet him: fasting three days of every month, the forenoon (Duha) prayer, and that I do not sleep without having prayed witr."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from al-Abbas bin Awsajah except Abu Ma'shar al-Bara', and Abu Kamil al-Jahdari is alone in narrating it."
