عبادة بن الصامت ﵁
Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34476 — Ubadah bin al-Samit
٣٤٤٧٦ - حدثنا عبد اللَّه بن إدريس عن أبيه عن عطية قال: جاء رجل يقال له: عبادة بن الصامت فقال: يا رسول اللَّه إن لي موالي من اليهود كثير عددهم ⦗١٣٣⦘ (حاضر نصرهم) (١) وأنا أبرأ إلى اللَّه ورسوله من ولاية يهود، فأنزل في عبادة: ﴿إِنَّمَا وَلِيُّكُمُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا﴾ الآية، إلى قوله: ﴿بِأَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌ لَا (يَعْقِلُونَ) (٢)﴾ (٣). [المائدة: ٥٥، ٥٨].
Atiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Sayyiduna Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) came and said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I have many allies (mawali) among the Jews. Their number is great and their help is at hand. But I declare myself free, before Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), of any alliance with the Jews." So Allah, the Lord of Might, revealed this verse concerning Sayyiduna Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him), from "Your ally is only Allah and His Messenger and those who have believed" to "because they are a people who do not understand." [Al-Ma'idah: 55, 58]
