Musnad Abi Ya'la 962 — Arwa bint Aws claimed against Sayyiduna Sa'id
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّ أَرْوَى بِنْتَ أَوْسٍ ادَّعَتْ عَلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ أَنَّهُ أَخَذَ شَيْئًا مِنْ أَرْضِهَا ، فَخَاصَمَتْهُ إِلَى مَرْوَانَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ ، فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ : أَنَا كُنْتُ آخُذُ مِنْ أَرْضِهَا شَيْئًا بَعْدَ الَّذِي سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ قَالَ : وَمَاذَا سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : مَنْ أَخَذَ شِبْرًا مِنَ الْأَرْضِ طُوِّقَهُ إِلَى سَبْعِ أَرَضِينَ . فَقَالَ لَهُ مَرْوَانُ : لَا أَسْأَلُكَ بَيِّنَةً بَعْدَ هَذَا . فَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَتْ كَاذِبَةً فَأَعْمِ بَصَرَهَا ، وَاقْتُلْهَا فِي أَرْضِهَا . قَالَ : فَمَا مَاتَتْ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهَا ، وَبَيْنَمَا هِيَ تَمْشِي فِي أَرْضِهَا إِذْ وَقَعَتْ فِي حُفْرَةٍ فَمَاتَتْ .
Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that Arwa bint Aws claimed against Sayyiduna Sa'id bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) that he had taken part of her land, and she took the case against him to Marwan bin al-Hakam. Sayyiduna Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Would I take anything of her land after what I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" Marwan said: "What did you hear from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Whoever (unjustly) takes a handspan of land, a collar of up to seven earths will be placed around his neck.'" Marwan said to him: "After this I will not ask you for any proof." Then Sayyiduna Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) supplicated thus: 'Allahumma in kanat kadhibatan fa-a'mi basaraha, waqtulha fi ardiha' (O Allah, if she is lying, then take away her sight and cause her to die in her own land). The narrator said: So she did not die until her sight had gone, and one day, while she was walking in her land, she fell into a pit and died.
