حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُمَرَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ سُرَيْجٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: " كَانَ تَمِيمٌ الدَّارِيُّ، وَعَدِيُّ بْنُ بَدَّاءٍ يَخْتَلِفَانِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَصَحِبَهُمَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ مِنْ بَنِي سَهْمٍ ، فَمَاتَ بِأَرْضٍ لَيْسَ بِهَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَأَوْصَى إِلَيْهِمَا بِتَرِكَتِهِ. فَلَمَّا قَدِمَا فَدَفَعَاهَا إِلَى أَهْلِهِ وَكَتَمَا جَامًا كَانَ مَعَهُ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ مُخَوَّصًا بِالذَّهَبِ فَقَالَا: لَمْ نَرَهُ. فَأُتِيَ بِهِمَا النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَاسْتَحْلَفَهُمَا بِاللَّهِ مَا كَتَمَا وَلَا اطَّلَعَا وَخَلَّى سَبِيلَهُمَا، ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْجَامَ وُجِدَ عِنْدَ قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ قَالُوا: ابْتَعْنَاهُ مِنْ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ وَعَدِيِّ بْنِ بَدَّاءٍ. فَقَامَ أَوْلِيَاءُ السَّهْمِيِّ فَأَخَذُوا الْجَامَ، وَحَلَفَ رَجُلَانِ مِنْهُمْ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّ هَذَا الْجَامَ جَامُ صَاحِبَنَا وَشَهَادَتُنَا أَحَقُّ مِنْ شَهَادَتِهِمَا وَمَا اعْتَدَيْنَا إِنَّا إِذًا لَمِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ. وَنَزَلَتْ هَاتَانِ الْآيَتَانِ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا شَهَادَةُ بَيْنَكُمْ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ} [المائدة: 106] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that "Sayyiduna Tamim al-Dari (may Allah be pleased with him) and Adi bin Badda' used to travel back and forth to Makkah. (On one journey) a man of Banu Sahm, a branch of the tribe of Quraysh, accompanied them. Then he died in a land where there was no Muslim, and he entrusted his estate to the two of them by will. When the two of them came (back), they handed over the belongings to the heirs of the deceased, but they concealed a silver cup decorated with gold and said: 'We did not see that cup.' So the two of them were brought before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) made them swear by Allah that they had neither concealed anything nor had any knowledge of it, and then he (peace and blessings be upon him) let them go. Later the cup was found with some people of Makkah, who said: 'We bought it from Tamim al-Dari and Adi bin Badda'.' Then the heirs of that man of Sahm stood up and took the cup, and two men from among them (the heirs) swore by Allah: 'This cup certainly belongs to our companion, and our testimony is more deserving than the testimony of those two, and we have not transgressed; if we did, we would surely be among the wrongdoers.' And it was in the background of this incident that these two verses were revealed: 'O you who believe, the testimony between you, when death approaches one of you,' to the end of the verse."
