Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 38818 — Taking the Quran into enemy land: Abu

Al-Sha'bi said: I heard Sayyiduna al-Nu'man bin Bashir (may Allah be pleased with him) saying: My father gave me a gift, and my mother, Amrah bint Rawahah, said: "I will not be pleased (with it) until you make the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) a witness to it." Sayyiduna al-Nu'man said: He (my father) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "I have given a gift to my son who is from Amrah, and she has told me to make you a witness (to it)." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Have you given each of your sons a gift like this?" He said: "No!" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Fear Allah and act justly among your children."
