كلام النعمان بن بشير ﵁Sayings of Nu‘man ibn Bashir رضي الله عنه
Hadith 37452
٣٧٤٥٢ - حدثنا يزيد قال: أخبرنا حريز بن عثمان قال: حدثني حبان بن زيد الشرعبي (١) قال: وكان (ودا) (٢) للنعمان، وكان النعمان استعمله على (النبك) (٣) قال: فسمع النعمان يقول: ألا إن عمال اللَّه ضامنون على اللَّه، ألا إن عمال بني آدم لا يملكون ضمانهم، قال: فلما نزل النعمان (عن) (٤) منبره أتاه فاستعفى فقال: مالك؟ قال: سمعتك تقول كذا وكذا (٥).
Hazrat Hibban bin Zaid narrates... He was a close friend of Hazrat Nu'man and Hazrat Nu'man (may Allah be pleased with him) had appointed him as the governor at the place of Nabk... He says that he heard Hazrat Nu'man saying: Beware! The deeds of Allah's agents are guaranteed by Allah. Beware! The deeds of the children of Adam are not owners of their own guarantee. The narrator says that when Hazrat Nu'man descended from his pulpit, he (Hibban) came to him and wanted to resign. Hazrat Nu'man asked: What has happened to you? He replied: I heard you saying such and such.
