حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُسَاوِرٍ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ، ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْقُدُّوسِ، ثنا عُبَيْدٌ الْمُكْتِبُ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطُّفَيْلِ، حَدَّثَنِي سَلْمَانُ الْفَارِسِيُّ قَالَ: كُنْتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ جَيٍّ، وَكَانَ أَهْلُ قَرْيَتِي يَعْبُدُونَ الْخَيْلَ الْبُلْقَ، وَكُنْتُ أَعْرِفُ أَنَّهُمْ لَيْسُوا عَلَى شَيْءٍ، فَقِيلَ لِي: إِنَّ الدِّينَ الَّذِي تَطْلُبُ، إِنَّمَا هُوَ بِالْمَغْرِبِ، فَخَرَجْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ الْمَوْصِلَ، فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْ أَفْضَلِ رَجُلٍ فِيهَا، فَدُلِلْتُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ فِي صَوْمَعَةٍ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: إِنِّي رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ جَيٍّ، وَإِنِّي جِئْتُ أَطْلُبُ الْعِلْمَ وَأَتَعَلَّمُ، فَضُمَّنِي إِلَيْكَ أَخْدُمُكَ وأَصْحَبُكَ، وتُعَلِّمُنِي مِمَّا عَلَّمَكَ اللهُ؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَصَحِبْتُهُ، فَأَجْرَى عَلَيَّ مِثْلَ مَا كَانَ يُجْرِي عَلَيْهِ الْخَلَّ وَالزَّيْتَ وَالْحُبُوبَ، فَلَمْ أَزَلْ مَعَهُ حَتَّى نَزَلَ بِهِ الْمَوْتُ، فَجَلَسْتُ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ أَبْكِيهِ، فَقَالَ: مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ قُلْتُ: يُبْكِينِي أَنِّي خَرَجْتُ مِنْ بِلَادٍ أَطْلُبُ الْخَيْرَ، فَرَزَقَنِي اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَصَحِبْتُكَ فَعَلَّمْتَنِي، وَأَحْسَنْتَ صُحْبَتِي، فَنَزَلَ بِكَ الْمَوْتُ، وَلَا أَدْرِي أَيْنَ أَذْهَبُ، قَالَ لِي: أَخٌ بِالْجَزِيرَةِ بِمَكَانِ كَذَا وَكَذَا، فَهُوَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ فَائْتِهِ، فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ، وَأَخْبِرْهُ أَنِّي أَوْصَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ وأَوْصَيْتُكَ بِصُحْبَتِهِ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا أَنْ قُبِضَ الرَّجُلُ خَرَجْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي وَصَفَ لِي، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِالْخَبَرِ، وَأَقْرَأْتُهُ السَّلَامَ مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ، وَأَخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّهُ هَلَكَ وَأَمَرَنِي بِصُحْبَتِهِ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا أَنْ قُبِضَ الرَّجُلُ خَرَجْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي وَصَفَ لِي، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ وأَوْفَيْتُهُ السَّلَامَ مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ، أَنَّهُ هَلَكَ وَأَمَرَنِي بِصُحْبَتِهِ، قَالَ: فَضَمَّنِي إِلَيْهِ، وَأَجْرَى عَلَيَّ كَمَا كَانَ يُجْرَى عَلَيَّ مَعَ الْآخَرِ، فَصَحِبْتُهُ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ نَزَلَ بِهِ الْمَوْتُ، فَلَمَّا أَنْ نَزَلَ بِهِ الْمَوْتُ جَلَسْتُ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ أَبْكِي، فَقَالَ لِي: مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ قُلْتُ: خَرَجْتُ مِنْ بِلَادِي أَطْلُبُ الْخَيْرَ، فَرَزَقَنِي اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ صُحْبَةَ فُلَانٍ، فَأَحْسَنَ صُحْبَتِي وَعَلَّمَنِي، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ بِهِ الْمَوْتُ أَوْصَى بِي إِلَيْكَ فَضَمَمْتَنِي، وَأَحْسَنْتَ صُحْبَتِي، وَعَلَّمْتَنِي، وَقَدْ نَزَلَ بِكَ الْمَوْتُ، فَلَا أَدْرِي أَيْنَ أَتَوَجَّهُ؟ قَالَ: فَائْتِ أَخًا لِي عَلَى قُرْبِ الرُّومِ، فَهُوَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ فَائْتِهِ، وَاقْرِأْهُ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ واصْحَبْهُ، فَإِنَّهُ عَلَى الْحَقِّ، فَلَمَّا قُبِضَ الرَّجُلُ خَرَجْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُهُ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِخَبَرِي، وبِوَصِيَّةِ الْآخَرِ قَبْلَهُ، قَالَ: فَضَمَّنِي إِلَيْهِ، وَأَجْرَى عَلَيَّ كَمَا يُجْرَى عَلَيَّ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ بِهِ الْمَوْتُ، جَلَسْتُ أَبْكِي عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، فَقَالَ لِي: مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ فَقَصَصْتُ قِصَّتِي، قُلْتُ لَهُ: إِنَّ اللهَ رَزَقَنِي صُحْبَتَكَ، وَأَحْسَنْتَ صُحْبَتِي، وَقَدْ نَزَلَ بِكَ الْمَوْتُ، فَلَا أَدْرِي أَيْنَ أَتَوَجَّهُ؟ قَالَ: لَا أَيْنَ، مَا بَقِيَ أَحَدٌ أَعْلَمُهُ عَلَى دِينِ عِيسَى فِي الْأَرْضِ، وَلَكِنْ هَذَا أَوَانٌ يَخْرُجُ فِيهِ نَبِيٌّ، أَوْ قَدْ خَرَجَ بِتِهَامَةَ فَأَنْتَ عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ لَا يَمُرُّ بِكَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا سَأَلْتَهُ عَنْهُ، وَإِذَا بَلَغَكَ أَنَّهُ خَرَجَ فَائْتِهِ، فَإِنَّهُ النَّبِيُّ الَّذِي بَشَّرَ بِهِ عِيسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، وَآيَةُ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ خَاتَمَ النُّبُوَّةِ، وَأَنَّهُ يَأْكُلُ الْهَدِيَّةَ، وَلَا يَأْكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ، قَالَ: فَكَانَ لَا يَمُرُّ بِي أَحَدٌ إِلَّا سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْهُ، فَمَرَّ بِي نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ فَسَأَلْتُهُمْ، فَقَالُوا: نَعَمْ قَدْ ظَهْرَ فِينَا رَجُلٌ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ، فَقُلْتُ لِبَعْضِهِمْ: هَلْ لَكُمْ إِلَى أَنْ أَكُونَ عَبْدًا لِبَعْضِكُمْ عَلَى أَنْ تَحْمِلُونِي عُقْبَةً، وتُطْعِمُونِي مِنَ الْكِسَرِ، فَإِذَا بَلَغْتُمْ إِلَى بِلَادِكُمْ، فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَبِيعَ بَاعَ، وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَسْتَعْبِدَ اسْتَعْبَدَ، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ: أَنَا، فَصِرْتُ عَبْدًا لَهُ حَتَّى قَدِمَ بِي مَكَّةَ، فَجَعَلَنِي فِي بُسْتَانٍ لَهُ مَعَ حُبْشَانٍ كَانُوا فِيهِ، فَخَرَجْتُ وَسَأَلْتُ، فَلَقِيتُ امْرَأَةً مِنْ أَهْلِ بِلَادِي فَسَأَلْتُهَا، فَإِذَا أَهْلُ بَيْتِهَا قَدْ أَسْلَمُوا، وَقَالَتْ لِي: إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْحِجْرِ هُوَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ إِذَا صَاحَ عُصْفُورٌ بِمَكَّةَ، حَتَّى إِذَا أَضَاءَ لَهُمُ الْفَجْرُ تَفَرَّقُوا، فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى الْبُسْتَانِ فَكُنْتُ أَخْتَلِفُ لَيْلَتِي، فَقَالَ لِي الْحُبْشَانُ: مَا لَكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ: أَشْتَكِي بَطْنِي، قَالَ: وَإِنَّمَا صَنَعْتُ ذَلِكَ لِئَلَّا يَفْقِدُونِي إِذَا ذَهَبْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ السَّاعَةُ الَّتِي أَخْبَرَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ الَّتِي يَجْلِسُ فِيهَا هُوَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ، خَرَجْتُ أَمْشِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَإِذَا هُوَ مُحْتَبٍ وَأَصْحَابُهُ حَوْلَهُ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ، فَعَرَفَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِي أُرِيدُ، فَأَرْسَلَ حَبْوَتَهُ، فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى خَاتَمِ النُّبُوَّةِ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ، فَقُلْتُ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، هَذِهِ وَاحِدَةٌ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ اللَّيْلَةُ الْمُقْبِلَةُ لَقَطْتُ تَمْرًا جَيِّدًا، ثُمَّ انْطَلَقْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَوَضَعْتُهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا؟» قُلْتُ هُوَ هَدِيَّةٌ، فَأَكَلَ مِنْهَا، وَقَالَ لِلْقَوْمِ: «كُلُوا» ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ، فَسَأَلَنِي عَنْ أَمْرِي، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: «اذْهَبْ فَاشْتَرِ نَفْسَكَ» ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى صَاحِبِي، فَقُلْتُ: بِعْنِي نَفْسِي؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، عَلَى أَنْ تُنْبِتَ لِي مِائَةَ نَخْلَةٍ، فَإِذَا أَنْبَتَتْ جِئْنِي بِوَزْنِ نَوَاةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اشْتَرِ نَفْسَكَ بِالَّذِي سَأَلَكَ وَائْتِنِي بِدَلْوٍ مِنْ مَاءِ الْبِئْرِ الَّذِي كُنْتَ تَسْقِي مِنْهَا ذَلِكَ النَّخْلَ» ، قَالَ: فَدَعَا لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهَا، ثُمَّ سَقَيْتُهَا فَوَاللهِ لَقَدْ غَرَسْتُ مِائَةَ نَخْلَةٍ، فَمَا غادَرَتْ مِنْهَا نَخْلَةٌ، إِلَّا نَبَتَتْ، فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّ النَّخْلَ قَدْ نَبَتْنَ، فَأَعْطَانِي قِطْعَةً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ بِهَا فَوَضَعْتُهَا فِي كِفَّةِ الْمِيزَانِ، وَوَضَعَ فِي الْجَانِبِ الْآخَرِ نَوَاةً، فَوَاللهِ مَا اسْتَقَلَّتِ الْقِطْعَةُ الذَّهَبُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، قَالَ: وَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فأَعْتَقَنِي
Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: I was a man from Jayy, and the people of my village used to worship piebald horses. I knew that they were not upon anything (of the truth). I was told that the religion I was seeking was in the west. So I set out until I reached Mosul. I asked about the best man there, and I was directed to a man who lived in a hermitage (sawma'ah). I went to him and said to him: I am a man from Jayy, and I have come seeking knowledge and to learn; take me in with you, I will serve you and keep your company, and you will teach me what Allah has taught you. He said: Very well. So I kept his company, and he gave me (food) just as he took for himself: vinegar, oil and grain. I stayed with him until death came to him. I sat by his head weeping. He said: What makes you weep? I said: What makes me weep is that I left my homeland seeking good, and Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, granted me your company; you taught me and treated me well, and now death has come to you and I do not know where to go. He said: I have a brother in al-Jazirah, at such-and-such a place; he is upon the truth. Go to him, convey my salam to him, and tell him that I have made my bequest to him, and that I have instructed you to keep his company.
When that man passed away, I set out until I reached the man he had described to me. I gave him the news (of the first man's death), conveyed to him the salam of his companion, and told him that he had died and had commanded me to keep his company. He took me in with him and gave me (food) just as I had been given (with) the other. I kept his company as long as Allah willed, then death came to him. When death was approaching him, I sat by his head weeping. He said: What makes you weep? I said: I left my homeland seeking good, and Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, granted me the company of so-and-so; he treated me well and taught me, then when death came to him he entrusted me to you, and you took me in, treated me well and taught me; and now death has come to you, and I do not know which way to turn. He said: Go to a brother of mine near the land of the Romans; he is upon the truth. Go to him, convey my salam to him and keep his company, for he is upon the truth.
When that man passed away, I set out until I reached him, and told him my story and the bequest of the one before him. He took me in with him and gave me (food) just as I used to be given. When death came to him, I sat by his head weeping. He said: What makes you weep? I told him my story and said: Allah granted me your company and you treated me well, and now death has come to you, and I do not know which way to turn. He said: (Now) nowhere. I do not know anyone left on earth who is upon the religion of Isa (peace be upon him). But now the time is near in which a prophet will be sent, or (perhaps he said) has been sent, in Tihamah. So stay on the road, and keep asking about him whoever passes by you, and when you learn that he has appeared, go to him, for he is the Prophet of whom Isa (peace be upon him) gave glad tidings. His sign is that between his two shoulders is the Seal of Prophethood, and that he eats from a gift but does not eat from charity.
So I would ask about him (the Prophet) whoever passed by me. Some people of Makkah passed by me and I asked them. They said: Yes, a man has appeared among us who claims that he is a prophet. I said to some of them: Will you take me as a slave of one of you, on condition that you let me ride (a mount) by turns and feed me some scraps of bread; then, when you reach your homeland, if he wishes he may sell me, and if he wishes he may keep me as a slave? One man among them said: I (will take you). So I became his slave until he brought me to Makkah. He put me in an orchard of his along with some Abyssinians who were already there.
I went out and made inquiries, and I met a woman from my homeland. I asked her and learned that her household had accepted Islam. She told me that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is in the Hijr with his companions when the sparrow chirps in Makkah, until, when the dawn lights up for them, they disperse. So I went to the orchard and kept going back and forth (there) during the night. The Abyssinians said to me: What is wrong with you? I said: My stomach is troubling me. I did this so that they would not miss me when I went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
When the time came that the woman had told me about, when he and his companions sat there, I set out on foot until I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He was sitting with his knees drawn up, and his companions were around him. I came to him from behind, and the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recognised what I wanted, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) let his cloak hang loose. I saw the Seal of Prophethood between his (peace and blessings be upon him) two shoulders, and I said: Allahu Akbar, this is one (sign). Then I went back.
When the next night came, I picked some fine dates, then went until I reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and placed them before him (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What is this?" I said: This is a gift. He (peace and blessings be upon him) ate from it and said to the people: "Eat." I said: I bear witness that there is no god except Allah and that you are indeed the Messenger of Allah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me about my situation and I told him. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and buy yourself (make a contract of manumission)." So I went to my master and said: Will you sell me myself (by freeing me)? He said: Very well, on condition that you grow a hundred date palms for me, and when they have grown, bring me gold equal to the weight of a date stone. I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Buy yourself for what he has asked of you, and bring me a bucket of water from the well from which you used to water those date palms." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated over it, then I watered (the date palms) with it. By Allah! I planted a hundred date palms, and not a single tree among them was left that did not grow. I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him that the date palms had grown. He (peace and blessings be upon him) gave me a piece of gold. I took it and placed it in one pan of the scales, and a date stone was placed in the other pan. By Allah! That piece of gold did not rise from the ground. I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (and made the payment), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) set me free.
When that man passed away, I set out until I reached the man he had described to me. I gave him the news (of the first man's death), conveyed to him the salam of his companion, and told him that he had died and had commanded me to keep his company.
