(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا
وُهَيْبٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنِي
سَالِمٌ ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ , أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَسْمَعُهُ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ أَمَّرَ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ ، فَبَلَغَهُ أَنَّ النَّاسَ عَابُوا أُسَامَةَ ، وَطَعَنُوا فِي إِمَارَتِهِ ، فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي النَّاسِ ، فَقَالَ كَمَا حَدَّثَنِي سَالِمٌ : " أَلَا إِنَّكُمْ تَعِيبُونَ أُسَامَةَ ، وَتَطْعَنُونَ فِي إِمَارَتِهِ ، وَقَدْ فَعَلْتُمْ ذَلِكَ بِأَبِيهِ مِنْ قَبْلُ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ لَخَلِيقًا لِلْإِمَارَةِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ لَأَحَبَّ النَّاسِ كُلِّهِمْ إِلَيَّ ، وَإِنَّ ابْنَهُ هَذَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ لَأَحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَيَّ ، فَاسْتَوْصُوا بِهِ خَيْرًا ، فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ خِيَارِكُمْ " ، قَالَ سَالِمٌ : مَا سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ يُحَدِّثُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ قَطُّ , إِلَّا قَالَ : مَا حَاشَا فَاطِمَةَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that on one occasion the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) appointed Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) as the leader over some people. The people objected to his leadership. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) found out, he stood up and said: "If you are objecting to his leadership, then this is nothing new; before this, you also objected to his father's leadership. By Allah! He was worthy of leadership and was the most beloved to me among the people, and now this son of his is, after him, the most beloved to me. Therefore, accept my advice to treat him well, for he is your best companion." Whenever Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated this hadith, he would always make an exception for Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her).
