حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ جُمْهُورٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْوَاقِدِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُوحٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ، عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، قَالَ: «قَدِمَتْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وُفُودُ الْعَرَبِ، فَلَمْ يَقْدَمْ عَلَيْنَا وَفْدٌ أَقْسَى قُلُوبًا وَلَا أَحْرَى أَنْ يَكُونَ الْإِسْلَامُ لَمْ يَقَرَّ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مِنْ بَنِي حَنِيفَةَ»
Sayyiduna Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The delegations of the Arabs came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and no delegation came to us that was harder-hearted, or more likely to be such that Islam had not settled in their hearts, than the delegation of Banu Hanifah.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ، ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ جُمْهُورٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْوَاقِدِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُوحٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ، عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ بِالرَّجَالِ بْنِ غَنْمَوَيْهِ مِنَ الْخُشُوعِ وَاللُّزُومِ لِقِرَاءَةِ الْقُرْآنِ وَالْخَيْرِ فِيمَا يَرَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْءٌ عَجَبٌ، فَخَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا وَالرَّجَالُ مَعَنَا جَالِسٌ مَعَ نَفَرٍ فَقَالَ: «أَحَدُ هَؤُلَاءِ النَّفْرِ فِي النَّارِ» ، قَالَ رَافِعٌ: فَنَظَرْتُ فِي الْقَوْمِ، فَإِذَا بِأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ الدَّوْسِيِّ وَأَبِي أَرْوَى الدَّوْسِيِّ وَالطُّفَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الدَّوْسِيِّ وَرِجَالُ بْنُ غَنْمَوَيْهِ، فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْظُرُ وأَتَعَجَّبُ وَأَقُولُ مَنْ هَذَا الشَّقِيُّ؟ وَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجَعَتْ بَنُو حَنِيفَةَ، فَسَأَلَتْ مَا فَعَلَ الرِّجَالُ بْنُ غَنْمَوَيْهِ؟ فَقَالُوا: فُتِنَ هُوَ الَّذِي شَهِدَ لمُسَيْلِمَةَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ أَشْرَكَهُ فِي أَمْرِهِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَهُوَ حَقٌّ وَسُمِعَ الرِّجَالُ يَقُولُ: كَبْشَانِ انْتَطَحَا فَأَحَبُّهُمَا إِلَيْنَا كَبْشُنَا
Muhammad bin Sahl bin Abi Hathmah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sayyiduna Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: There was something remarkable in al-Rajjal bin Ghanmawayh by way of humility, constant devotion to the recitation of the Qur'an, and goodness, as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saw it. One day the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us while al-Rajjal was sitting with us in a group, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "One of these people is in the Fire." Sayyiduna Rafi' (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I looked at the people, and there were Abu Hurayrah al-Dawsi, Abu Arwa al-Dawsi, al-Tufayl bin Amr al-Dawsi and al-Rajjal bin Ghanmawayh. I kept looking, marvelling and saying: Who is this wretched one? When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, Banu Hanifah turned back from their religion, so I asked: What became of al-Rajjal bin Ghanmawayh? They said: He fell into fitnah (trial); he is the one who testified in favour of Musaylimah, against the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), that he (peace and blessings be upon him) had made him a partner in his affair after him. I said: Whatever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said is the truth. And al-Rajjal was heard saying: Two rams butted each other, and the dearer of them to us is our own ram.
