حَدَّثَنَا
وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ
عَمْرِو بْنِ حَسَّانَ يَعْنِي الْمَسْلِيَّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي
الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْيَشْكُرِيُّ ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : دَخَلْتُ مَسْجِدَ الْكُوفَةِ أَوَّلَ مَا بُنِيَ مَسْجِدُهَا ، وَهُوَ فِي أَصْحَابِ التَّمْرِ يَوْمَئِذٍ ، وَجُدُرُهُ مِنْ سِهْلَةٍ ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ يُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ , قَالَ : بَلَغَنِي حَجَّةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَجَّةُ الْوَدَاعِ ، قَالَ : فَاسْتَتْبَعْتُ رَاحِلَةً مِنْ إِبِلِي ، ثُمَّ خَرَجْتُ حَتَّى جَلَسْتُ لَهُ فِي طَرِيقِ عَرَفَةَ أَوْ وَقَفْتُ لَهُ فِي طَرِيقِ عَرَفَةَ ، قَالَ : فَإِذَا رَكْبٌ عَرَفْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِمْ بِالصِّفَةِ ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ أَمَامَهُ : خَلِّ عَنْ طَرِيقِ الرِّكَابِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " وَيْحَه فَأَرِب َلَهُ " ، فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى اخْتَلَفَتْ رَأْسُ النَّاقَتَيْنِ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، دُلَّنِي عَلَى عَمَلٍ يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ ، وَيُنَجِّينِي مِنَ النَّارِ ، قَالَ :
" بَخٍ بَخٍ ، لَئِنْ كُنْتَ قَصَّرْتَ فِي الْخُطْبَةِ ، لَقَدْ أَبْلَغْتَ فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ ، اتَّقِ اللَّهَ ، لَا تُشْرِكْ بالله شيئًاِ ، وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ ، وَتُؤَدِّي الزَّكَاةَ وَتَحُجُّ الْبَيْتَ ، وَتَصُومُ رَمَضَانَ ، خَلِّ عَنْ طَرِيقِ الرِّكَابِ " .
Abdullah Yashkari says that when the grand mosque of Kufa was built for the first time, I went there. At that time, there were also date palm trees there and its walls were made of sandy soil. There, a person was narrating this hadith: I received news of the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) Farewell Pilgrimage, so I selected a rideable camel from among my camels and set out, until I reached a place on the way to Arafah and sat down. When the Prophet (peace be upon him) mounted, I recognized him by his appearance. Meanwhile, a man who was ahead of them said, “Move out of the way of the mounts.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Perhaps he has some need.” So I came so close to the Prophet (peace be upon him) that the heads of our mounts were near each other. I said, “O Messenger of Allah! Tell me of an action that will admit me to Paradise and save me from Hell.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Wonderful! You have asked a very concise but excellent question. If you are capable, then worship only Allah, do not associate anything with Him, establish prayer, pay zakat, perform Hajj to the House of Allah, and fast in the month of Ramadan. Now, make way for the mounts.”
