حَدِيثُ خَبَّابِ بْنِ الْأَرَتِّ
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ قَالَ : شَكَوْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَهُوَ مُتَوَسِّدٌ بِبُرْدَةٍ لَهُ فِي ظِلِّ الْكَعْبَةِ ، فَقُلْنَا : أَلَا تَسْتَنْصِرُ لَنَا ؟ فَجَلَسَ مُحْمَرًّا وَجْهُهُ ، فَقَالَ : قَدْ كَانَ مَنْ قَبْلَكُمْ يُؤْخَذُ الرَّجُلُ فَيُحْفَرُ لَهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ ، ثُمَّ يُجَاءُ بِالْمِنْشَارِ يُجْعَلُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِ ، مَا يَصْرِفُهُ عَنْ دِينِهِ ، أَوْ يُمْشَطُ بِأَمْشَاطِ الْحَدِيدِ مَا دُونَ لَحْمِهِ مِنْ عَظْمٍ وَعَصَبٍ مَا يَصْرِفُهُ عَنْ دِينِهِ ، وَلَيُتِمَّنَّ اللهُ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ حَتَّى يَسِيرَ الرَّاكِبُ مِنْ صَنْعَاءَ إِلَى حَضْرَمَوْتَ لَا يَخْشَى إِلَّا اللهَ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - ، وَالذِّئْبَ عَلَى غَنَمِهِ ، وَلَكِنَّكُمْ تَعْجَلُونَ .
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ قَالَ : شَكَوْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَهُوَ مُتَوَسِّدٌ بِبُرْدَةٍ لَهُ فِي ظِلِّ الْكَعْبَةِ ، فَقُلْنَا : أَلَا تَسْتَنْصِرُ لَنَا ؟ فَجَلَسَ مُحْمَرًّا وَجْهُهُ ، فَقَالَ : قَدْ كَانَ مَنْ قَبْلَكُمْ يُؤْخَذُ الرَّجُلُ فَيُحْفَرُ لَهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ ، ثُمَّ يُجَاءُ بِالْمِنْشَارِ يُجْعَلُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِ ، مَا يَصْرِفُهُ عَنْ دِينِهِ ، أَوْ يُمْشَطُ بِأَمْشَاطِ الْحَدِيدِ مَا دُونَ لَحْمِهِ مِنْ عَظْمٍ وَعَصَبٍ مَا يَصْرِفُهُ عَنْ دِينِهِ ، وَلَيُتِمَّنَّ اللهُ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ حَتَّى يَسِيرَ الرَّاكِبُ مِنْ صَنْعَاءَ إِلَى حَضْرَمَوْتَ لَا يَخْشَى إِلَّا اللهَ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - ، وَالذِّئْبَ عَلَى غَنَمِهِ ، وَلَكِنَّكُمْ تَعْجَلُونَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khabbab (may Allah be pleased with him) that we complained to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (about the persecution of the idolaters) while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was reclining on a cloak of his in the shade of the Ka'bah. We said: "Will you not pray to Allah for help for us?" Hearing this, the blessed face of him (peace and blessings be upon him) changed and turned red, and he sat up, then said: "Among the people before you, a man would be brought, a pit would be dug for him in the ground, then a saw would be brought and placed on the middle of his head (and he would be cut in two), yet even this torment would not turn him away from his religion; or his flesh would be combed off down to the bones and sinews with iron combs, yet all this could not turn him away from his religion. By Allah! Allah Almighty will surely complete this matter (of the religion), until a rider will travel from San'a' to Hadramawt fearing no one except Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, and at most the wolf for his sheep. But you people are in a hurry."
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ جَعْدَةَ قَالَ : عَادَ خَبَّابًا نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالُوا : أَبْشِرْ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ تَرِدُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْحَوْضَ ، فَقَالَ : كَيْفَ بِهَذَا - وَأَشَارَ إِلَى أَعْلَى الْبَيْتِ وَأَسْفَلِهِ - وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِنَّمَا يَكْفِي أَحَدَكُمْ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا كَزَادِ الرَّاكِبِ .
Yahya bin Ja'dah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that some of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) visited Sayyiduna Khabbab bin al-Aratt (may Allah be pleased with him) in his illness and said to him: "O Abu Abdullah! Glad tidings to you: you will join Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) at the Pond (al-Kawthar)." At this, pointing to the top and the bottom of his (solidly built) house, he said: "What will become of me with these (buildings and abundant wealth)? When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'For each of you, only as much goods of this world is sufficient as a traveller's provisions.'"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ كَانَ مَعَ الْخَوَارِجِ ، ثُمَّ فَارَقَهُمْ ، فَقَالَ : دَخَلُوا قَرْيَةً ، فَخَرَجَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ خَبَّابٍ ذَعِرًا يَجُرُّ رِدَاءَهُ ، فَقَالُوا : لَمْ تُرَعْ ، فَقَالَ : وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رُعْتُمُونِي ، قَالُوا : لَمْ تُرَعْ . قَالَ : وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رُعْتُمُونِي ، قَالُوا : أَنْتَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ خَبَّابٍ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قَالُوا : فَهَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْ أَبِيكَ حَدِيثًا تُحَدِّثُنَا بِهِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَنَّهُ ذَكَرَ فِتْنَةً : الْقَاعِدُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْقَائِمِ ، وَالْقَائِمُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْمَاشِي ، وَالْمَاشِي فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ السَّاعِي . قَالَ : « فَإِنْ أَدْرَكَكَ ذَاكَ ، فَكُنْ عَبْدَ اللهِ الْمَقْتُولَ » قَالَ أَيُّوبُ : وَلَا أَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا قَالَ : « وَلَا تَكُنْ عَبْدَ اللهِ الْقَاتِلَ » ، قَالُوا : أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ هَذَا مِنْ أَبِيكَ يُحَدِّثُ بِهِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ . قَالَ : فَقَدَّمُوهُ عَلَى ضَفَّةِ النَّهَرِ ، فَضَرَبُوا عُنُقَهُ ، فَسَالَ دَمًا كَأَنَّهُ شِرَاكُ نَعْلٍ مُنْدَفِرٍ ، وَبَقَرُوا أُمَّ وَلَدِهِ عَمَّا فِي بَطْنِهَا .
Humayd bin Hilal (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from a man of the tribe of Abd al-Qays who had been with the Kharijites and then left them; he related that (the Kharijites) entered a village, and Abdullah bin Khabbab (may Allah have mercy on him) came out, frightened, dragging his cloak. They said: "Do not be afraid." He said: "By Allah! You have frightened me." They said (again): "Do not be afraid." He said: "By Allah! You have truly frightened me." They asked: "Are you Abdullah bin Khabbab, the son of the Companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said: "Yes." They said: "Then have you heard from your father (Sayyiduna Khabbab bin al-Aratt (may Allah be pleased with him)) any hadith that you can relate to us from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), that he (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned a tribulation?" He said (yes, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said): "In it the one sitting will be better than the one standing, the one standing will be better than the one walking, and the one walking will be better than the one running." And he also said: "If you live to see that time, be the servant of Allah who is killed." Ayyub (may Allah have mercy on him) says: To the best of my knowledge he (peace and blessings be upon him) also said: "And do not be the servant of Allah who kills." They asked: "Did you really hear your father relating this hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said: "Yes." Then those oppressors brought him forward to the bank of the river and struck off his head, and his blood flowed in a single stream like a sandal strap, and they ripped open the belly of his pregnant slave-mother of his child (umm walad) and took out her child.
