حَدَّثَنَا
يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ ،
وَيَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا
إِسْرَائِيلُ ، عَنْ
أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ ، قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ : عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ ، قَالَ : خَرَجْتُ مَعَ عَمِّي فِي غَزَاةٍ ، فَسَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أُبَيٍّ ابْنِ سَلُولَ يَقُولُ لِأَصْحَابِهِ : لَا تُنْفِقُوا عَلَى مَنْ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ، وَلَئِنْ رَجَعْنَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ لَيُخْرِجَنَّ الْأَعَزُّ مِنْهَا الْأَذَلَّ ، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِعَمِّي ، فَذَكَرَهُ عَمِّي لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أُبَيِّ ابْنِ سَلُولَ وَأَصْحَابِهِ ، فَحَلَفُوا مَا قَالُوا ، فَكَذَّبَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَدَّقَهُ ، فَأَصَابَنِي هَمٌّ لَمْ يُصِيبُنِي مِثْلُهُ قَطُّ ، وَجَلَسْتُ فِي الْبَيْتِ ، فَقَالَ عَمِّي : مَا أَرَدْتَ إِلَى أَنْ كَذَّبَكَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَقَتَكَ ؟ قَالَ : حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ سورة المنافقون آية 1 ، قَالَ : فَبَعَثَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَرَأَهَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ :
" إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ صَدَّقَكَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that I participated in a battle with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) along with my uncle. (The chief of the hypocrites) Abdullah bin Ubayy said, "If we return to Madinah, the more honorable will surely expel the more humble from there." I came to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him of what he had said. Abdullah bin Ubayy swore that he had not said any such thing. My uncle began to reproach me and said, "What was your purpose in this?" I returned from there, saddened, and lay down to sleep. Shortly after, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for me through a messenger. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Allah Almighty has revealed your excuse and proven your truthfulness," and this verse was revealed: "They say, 'Do not spend on those who are with the Messenger of Allah... If we return to Madinah, the more honorable will surely expel the more humble from there.'"
