Musnad of Abu Waqid al-Laythi
Musnad Abi Ya'la 1441 — when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Khaybar
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سِنَانِ بْنِ أَبِي سِنَانٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَاقِدٍ اللَّيْثِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حِينَ أَتَى خَيْبَرَ مَرَّ بِشَجَرَةٍ يُعَلِّقُ الْمُشْرِكُونَ عَلَيْهَا أَسْلِحَتَهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهَا: ذَاتَ أَنْوَاطٍ فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، اجْعَلْ لَنَا ذَاتَ أَنْوَاطٍ فَقَالَ: " اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، هَذَا كَمَا قَالَ قَوْمُ مُوسَى لِمُوسَى: {اجْعَلْ لَنَا إِلَهًا كَمَا لَهُمْ آلِهَةٌ} [الأعراف: 138] لَتَرْكَبُنَّ سَنَةَ مَنْ كَانَ قِبَلِكُمْ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Waqid al-Laythi (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to Khaybar, he (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by a tree on which the polytheists used to hang their weapons (for blessing); this tree was called "Dhat Anwat". The people said: O Messenger of Allah, appoint for us a "Dhat Anwat" too, like the one these polytheists have. At this the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest)! This is exactly like what the people of Sayyiduna Musa (peace be upon him) said to him: 'Make for us a god just as they have gods.' You will certainly follow the ways of those who came before you."
