Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 8004 — I was in Syria when al-Muhallab sent

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فَضَاءٍ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ الْمَازِنِيُّ، قَالَا: ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ حِسَابٍ، ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، ثنا أَبُو غَالِبٍ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ بِالشَّامِ، فَبَعَثَ الْمُهَلَّبُ سَبْعِينَ رَأْسًا مِنَ الْخَوَارِجِ، فَنُصِبُوا عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ، وَكُنْتُ عَلَى ظَهْرِ بَيْتٍ لِي، فَمَرَّ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ يُرِيدُ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَلَمَّا وَقَفَ عَلَيْهِمْ دَمِعَتْ عَيْنَاهُ، فَقَالَ: «سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، مَا يَفْعَلُ الشَّيْطَانُ بِبَنِي آدَمَ» - ثَلَاثًا - قَالَ: «كِلَابُ جَهَنَّمَ شَرُّ قَتْلَى تَحْتَ ظِلِّ السَّمَاءِ» - ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ - ثُمَّ قَالَ: «خَيْرُ قَتْلَى تَحْتَ ظِلِّ السَّمَاءِ مَنْ قَتَلُوهُ» - ثَلَاثًا - ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ: «يَا أَبَا غَالِبٍ، إِنَّكَ بِأَرْضِ هَؤُلَاءِ بِهَا كَثِيرٌ، فَأَعَاذَكَ اللهُ مِنْهُمْ. هَلْ تَقْرَأُ السُّورَةَ الَّتِي فِيهَا آلُ عِمْرَانَ؟» قُلْتُ: بَلَى، إِنِّي رَأَيْتُكَ دَمِعَتْ عَيْنَاكَ. قَالَ: «بَكَيْتُ رَحْمَةً لَهُمْ، كَانُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْإِسْلَامِ» فَتَلَا: {هُوَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ مِنْهُ آيَاتٌ مُحْكَمَاتٌ} [آل عمران: ٧] إِلَى أَنْ بَلَغَ: {ابْتِغَاءَ الْفِتْنَةِ وَابْتِغَاءَ تَأْوِيلِهِ} [آل عمران: ٧] وَإِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ كَانَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ زَيْغٌ، فَزِيغَ بِهِمْ، ثُمَّ تَلَا: {وَلَا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ تَفَرَّقُوا} [آل عمران: ١٠٥] إِلَى أَنْ بَلَغَ: {أَكَفَرْتُمْ بَعْدَ إِيمَانِكُمْ} [آل عمران: ١٠٦] قُلْتُ: هَؤُلَاءِ يَا أَبَا أُمَامَةَ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» . قُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا أُمَامَةَ مِنْ قِبَلِ رَأْيِكَ تَقُولُ، أَمْ شَيْئًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: «إِنِّي لَجَرِيءٌ - ثَلَاثًا - بَلْ شَيْءٌ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا مَرَّةً، وَلَا مَرَّتَيْنِ حَتَّى بَلَغَ سِتَّةً»
ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ تَفَرَّقَتْ إِحْدَى وَسَبْعِينَ فِرْقَةً - أَوْ قَالَ: اثْنَتَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ فِرْقَةً - وَإِنَّ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةَ سَتَزِيدُ عَلَيْهِمْ فِرْقَةً كُلُّهَا فِي النَّارِ إِلَّا السَّوَادَ الْأَعْظَمَ " قُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا أُمَامَةَ أَلَا تَرَاهُمْ مَا يَعْمَلُونَ؟ قَالَ: «عَلَيْهِمْ مَا حُمِّلُوا، وَعَلَيْكُمْ مَا حُمِّلْتُمْ إِنْ تُطِيعُوهُ تَهْتَدُوا»
Abu Ghalib said: I was in Syria when al-Muhallab sent seventy heads of the Kharijites, and they were set up at the door of the mosque. I was on the roof of my house when Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by on his way to the mosque. When he stopped by them, his eyes filled with tears and he said: "Subhan Allah, what Satan does to the children of Adam!" - three times. He said: "The dogs of Hell, the worst of the slain beneath the shade of the sky" - three times. Then he said: "The best of the slain beneath the shade of the sky are those whom they killed" - three times. Then he turned to me and said: "O Abu Ghalib, you are in the land of these people; they are numerous here, so may Allah protect you from them. Do you recite the surah in which Al Imran is mentioned?" I said: Certainly; I saw that your eyes were shedding tears. He said: "I wept out of pity for them; they were among the people of Islam." Then he recited: "It is He who has sent down to you the Book; in it are verses that are precise" [Al Imran: 7] until he reached: "seeking discord and seeking its interpretation" [Al Imran: 7], and he said: In the hearts of these people there was deviation, so Allah made them deviate. Then he recited: "And do not be like those who became divided" [Al Imran: 105] until he reached: "Did you disbelieve after your faith?" [Al Imran: 106]. I said: O Abu Umamah, are these the ones? He said: "Yes." I said: O Abu Umamah, do you say this from your own opinion, or is it something you heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: "I would never be so bold" - three times - "rather, it is something I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) not once or twice, but six times."
Then he said: "The Children of Israel split into seventy-one sects - or he said: seventy-two sects - and this Ummah will exceed them by one sect; all of them will be in the Fire except the greatest body (al-sawad al-a'zam)." I said: O Abu Umamah, do you not see what they are doing? He said: "Upon them is the burden placed upon them, and upon you is the burden placed upon you; if you obey him, you will be rightly guided."
