Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39981 — Those who disliked going out during
٣٩٩٨١ - حدثنا يزيد بن هارون قال: أخبرنا حماد بن سلمة عن ثابت بن زيد عن أبي بردة قال: دخلت على محمد بن مسلمة فقلت له: رحمك اللَّه! إنك من هذا الأمر بمكان، فلو خرجت إلى الناس فأمرت ونهيت؟ فقال: إن رسول اللَّه ﷺ قال: "أنها ستكون فتنة وفرقة واختلاف، فإذا كان ذلك فات بسيفك أحدا فاضربه حتى تقطعه، ثم اجلس في بيتك حتى تأتيك يد خاطئة أو (منية) (١) قاضية"، فقد وقعت وفعلت ما قال لي رسول اللَّه ﷺ (٢).
It is narrated from Abu Burdah that he said: I went to Sayyiduna Muhammad bin Maslamah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said to him: "May Allah have mercy on you! You hold such a rank in this matter. If only you would go out to the people, forbidding and commanding." He said: "Undoubtedly, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Soon there will be tribulations, division and disagreements. If that happens, take your sword to the mountain of Uhud and strike it with your sword until you break it. Then sit in your house until an erring hand comes to you, or a decisive death.' That has now happened, so I have done just as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me."
