Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 8453 — We were with Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ : نَا شَيْبَانُ قَالَ : نَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، بَيْنَ مَكَّةَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ ، وَكُنْتُ حَدِيدَ الْبَصَرِ ، فَتَرَاءَيْنَا الْهِلَالَ ، فَجَعَلَ أَحَدٌ لَا يَرَاهُ غَيْرِي ، فَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ : نَعَمْ ، أَلَا تَرَاهُ ، فَيَقُولُ عُمَرُ : سَأَرَاهُ وَأَنَا مُسْتَلْقٍ عَلَى فِرَاشِي ، ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ يُحَدِّثُنَا عَنْ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُرِينَا مَصَارِعَ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ بِالْأَمْسِ ، يَقُولُ : هَذَا مَصْرَعُ فُلَانٍ غَدًا ، وَهَذَا مَصْرَعُ فُلَانٍ غَدًا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : فَوَالَّذِي بَعَثَهُ بِالْحَقِّ مَا أَخْطَئُوا الْحُدُودَ الَّتِي حَدَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : فَجُعِلُوا فِي بِئْرٍ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ ، قَالَ : فَانْطَلَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَيْهِمْ ، فَقَالَ : I " يَا فُلَانُ ابْنَ فُلَانٍ ، وَيَا فُلَانُ ابْنَ فُلَانٍ ، هَلْ وَجَدْتُمْ مَا وَعَدَكُمُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ حَقًّا ؟ ، فَإِنِّي قَدْ وَجَدْتُ مَا وَعَدَنِي اللهُ حَقًّا I " ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، كَيْفَ تُكَلِّمُ أَجْسَادًا لَا أَرْوَاحَ فِيهَا ؟ قَالَ : I " مَا أَنْتُمْ بِأَسْمَعَ لِمَا أَقُولُ مِنْهُمْ ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يَرُدُّوا شَيْئًا ، لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ عُمَرَ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ .
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We were with Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) between Makkah and Madinah, and my eyesight was very sharp. We tried to sight the new moon, and no one except me could see it. I began saying: "Yes, do you not see it?" Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I will see it (soon) when I am lying on my bed." Then he began telling us about the people of Badr, and said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was showing us, the day before (the Battle of Badr), the places where the people of Badr would fall. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: 'If Allah wills, this will be the place where so-and-so falls tomorrow, and this will be the place where so-and-so falls.'" Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By the One who sent him (peace and blessings be upon him) with the truth, they did not miss in the slightest the places that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had marked out." Then they were thrown into a well, one on top of another. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) walked until he reached them and said: "O so-and-so son of so-and-so! O so-and-so son of so-and-so! Have you found true what Allah and His Messenger promised you? For I have indeed found true what my Lord promised me." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah, how do you speak to bodies in which there are no souls?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You do not hear what I am saying better than they do, except that they do not have the ability to reply."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain; Sulayman bin al-Mughirah is alone in narrating it."
