(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا
مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنِ
ابْنِ خُثَيْمٍ ، عَنْ
عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَابِطٍ ، عَنْ
جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ لِكَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ : " أَعَاذَكَ اللَّهُ مِنْ إِمَارَةِ السُّفَهَاءِ " ، قَالَ : وَمَا إِمَارَةُ السُّفَهَاءِ ؟ قَالَ : " أُمَرَاءُ يَكُونُونَ بَعْدِي لَا يَقْتَدُونَ بِهَدْيِي ، وَلَا يَسْتَنُّونَ بِسُنَّتِي ، فَمَنْ صَدَّقَهُمْ بِكَذِبِهِمْ ، وَأَعَانَهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ ، فَأُولَئِكَ لَيْسُوا مِنِّي ، وَلَسْتُ مِنْهُمْ ، وَلَا يَرِدُوا عَلَيَّ حَوْضِي ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يُصَدِّقْهُمْ بِكَذِبِهِمْ ، وَلَمْ يُعِنْهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ ، فَأُولَئِكَ مِنِّي وَأَنَا مِنْهُمْ ، وَسَيَرِدُوا عَلَيَّ حَوْضِي ، يَا كَعْبُ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ الصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ تُطْفِئُ الْخَطِيئَةَ ، وَالصَّلَاةُ قُرْبَانٌ ، أَوْ قَالَ : بُرْهَانٌ يَا كَعْبُ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ ، إِنَّهُ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ لَحْمٌ نَبَتَ مِنْ سُحْتٍ ، النَّارُ أَوْلَى بِهِ ، يَا كَعْبُ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ ، النَّاسُ غَادِيَانِ فَمُبْتَاعٌ نَفْسَهُ فَمُعْتِقُهَا ، وَبَائِعٌ نَفْسَهُ فَمُوبِقُهَا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once said to Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him): "May Allah protect you from the rule of fools." He asked, "What is the rule of fools, what is meant by it?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By this is meant those rulers who will come after me, who will not follow my way and will not adopt my Sunnah. Those who affirm their lies and assist them in their oppression, they have no connection with me and I have no connection with them, and these people will not be able to come to me at the Pond of Kawthar. But those who do not affirm their lies and do not assist them in their oppression, they are from me and I am from them, and soon they will come to me at the Pond of Kawthar. O Ka'b bin Ujrah! Fasting is a shield, charity erases sins, prayer is a means of nearness to Allah, or he said, it is a proof. O Ka'b bin Ujrah! No being whose nourishment is from the unlawful will be able to enter Paradise, and Hell is more deserving of him. O Ka'b bin Ujrah! People will be divided into two groups: some will purchase their souls and free them, and some will purchase them and destroy them."
