(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، قَالَ : وَحَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، قَالَ : خَاصَمَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ الزُّبَيْرَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي شِرَاجِ الْحَرَّةِ الَّتِي يَسْقُونَ بِهَا النَّخْلَ ، فَقَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ لِلزُّبَيْرِ : سَرِّحْ الْمَاءَ ، فَأَبَى ، فَكَلَّمَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " اسْقِ يَا زُبَيْرُ ، ثُمَّ أَرْسِلْ إِلَى جَارِكَ " ، فَغَضِبَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَنْ كَانَ ابْنَ عَمَّتِكَ ؟ فَتَلَوَّنَ وَجْهُهُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " احْبِسْ الْمَاءَ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ إِلَى الْجُدُرِ " ، قَالَ الزُّبَيْرُ : وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَحْسِبُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ نَزَلَتْ فِي ذَلِكَ فَلا وَرَبِّكَ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّى يُحَكِّمُوكَ فِيمَا شَجَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ سورة النساء آية 65 إِلَى قَوْلِهِ وَيُسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا سورة النساء آية 65 .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair that once Sayyiduna Zubair had a dispute with an Ansari regarding the water channel through which they irrigated their fields. The Ansari said, "Let the water flow," but Sayyiduna Zubair was not willing to let the water flow before irrigating his own garden. The Ansari spoke to the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Zubair, irrigate your field and then let the water flow for your neighbor." At this, the Ansari became angry and said, "O Messenger of Allah! He is your cousin, isn't he?" The face of the Prophet (ﷺ) changed upon hearing this, and he said, "Hold the water until it reaches the ankles." Sayyiduna Zubair says, "By Allah, I think this verse was revealed regarding this incident: 'But no, by your Lord, they will not [truly] believe until they make you, [O Muhammad], judge concerning that over which they dispute among themselves.'"
