Hadith 281
أنا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ زُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ، قَالَ : بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَيْشًا وَأَمَّرَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَجُلا، فَأَوْقَدَ نَارًا، فَقَالَ : ادْخُلُوهَا، فَأَرَادَ نَاسٌ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوهَا، وَقَالَ آخَرُونَ : إِنَّمَا فَرَرْنَا مِنْهَا، فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ لِلَّذِينَ أَرَادُوا أَنْ يَدْخُلُوهَا : " لَوْ دَخَلْتُمُوهَا، لَمْ تَزَالُوا فِيهَا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ أَبَدًا "، وَقَالَ لِلآخَرِينَ قَوْلا حَسَنًا، وَقَالَ : " أَحْسَنْتُمْ، لا طَاعَةَ لأَحَدٍ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ، إِنَّمَا الطَّاعَةُ فِي الْمَعْرُوفِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent an army and appointed a man as their leader. He lit a fire and said: Enter into it. Some people intended to enter it, while others said: It is from this (fire) that we have fled. This matter was mentioned before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so regarding those who intended to enter it, he said: "If you had entered it, you would have remained in it until the Day of Resurrection." And for the others, he said a good word or said: "You did well, there is no obedience to anyone in disobedience to Allah; obedience is only in goodness."
