Musnad of Jundub bin Abdullah al-Bajali
Musnad Abi Ya'la 1522 — I was present with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ بَهْرَامَ ، حَدَّثَنَا شَهْرُ بْنُ حَوْشَبٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي جُنْدُبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ، رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَجِيلَةَ قَالَ : إِنِّي عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِذْ جَاءَهُ بَشِيرٌ مِنْ سَرِيَّةٍ بَعَثَهَا ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِنَصْرِ اللهِ الَّذِي نَصَرَ سَرِيَّتَهُ ، وَبِفَتْحِ اللهِ الَّذِي فَتَحَ لَهُمْ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ بِطَلَبِ الْعَدُوِّ وَقَدْ هَزَمَهُمُ اللهُ ، إِذْ لَحِقْتُ رَجُلًا بِالسَّيْفِ ، فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ أَنَّ السَّيْفَ قَدْ وَاقَعَهُ ، الْتَفَتَ وَهُوَ يَسْعَى ، فَقَالَ : إِنِّي مُسْلِمٌ ، إِنِّي مُسْلِمٌ ، فَقَتَلْتُهُ ، وَإِنَّمَا كَانَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ مُتَعَوِّذًا . قَالَ : فَهَلَّا شَقَقْتَ عَنْ قَلْبِهِ ، فَنَظَرْتَ صَادِقٌ هُوَ أَوْ كَاذِبٌ ؟ قَالَ : لَوْ شَقَقْتُ عَنْ قَلْبِهِ مَا كَانَ يُعْلِمُنِي الْقَلْبُ ، هَلْ قَلْبُهُ إِلَّا مُضْغَةٌ مِنْ لَحْمٍ ؟ قَالَ : فَأَنْتَ قَتَلْتَهُ ، لَا مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ عَلِمْتَ ، وَلَا لِسَانَهُ صَدَّقْتَ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي ، قَالَ : لَا أَسْتَغْفِرُ لَكَ ، فَدَفَنُوهُ ، فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَوْمُهُ اسْتَحْيَوْا وَخَزَوْا مِمَّا لَقِيَ ، فَحَمَلُوهُ فَأَلْقَوْهُ فِي شِعْبٍ مِنْ تِلْكِ الشِّعَابِ .
Sayyiduna Jundub bin Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I was present with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when a messenger came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) from a detachment that he (peace and blessings be upon him) had sent out (for jihad). He informed him (peace and blessings be upon him) of the help of Allah that He had granted to that detachment, and gave him the good news of the victory that Allah had decreed for them. He said: "O Messenger of Allah! While we were pursuing the enemy, and Allah had already defeated them, I went after a man with a sword. When he sensed that the sword was about to fall on him, he turned towards me while running and said: 'I am a Muslim, I am a Muslim,' but I killed him, because, O Prophet of Allah, he was only seeking refuge (to escape death)." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why did you not split open his heart and look, so that you would have known whether he was truthful or lying (in his claim)?" He said: "Even if I had split open his heart, what would the heart have told me? Is the heart anything other than a lump of flesh?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You killed him; you neither knew the state of his heart nor believed what his tongue said." The man said: "O Messenger of Allah! Pray for forgiveness for me." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I will never pray for forgiveness for you." Then people buried him, and he came out above the ground three times. When his people saw this, they felt deeply ashamed and disgraced by what had happened to him, so they carried him and threw him into one of the mountain valleys.
