(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي حَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي رَافِعٍ ، وَقَالَ مَرَّةً : إِنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي رَافِعٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، يَقُولُ : بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا وَالزُّبَيْرَ وَالْمِقْدَادَ ، فَقَالَ : " انْطَلِقُوا حَتَّى تَأْتُوا رَوْضَةَ خَاخٍ ، فَإِنَّ بِهَا ظَعِينَةً مَعَهَا كِتَابٌ ، فَخُذُوهُ مِنْهَا " ، فَانْطَلَقْنَا تَعَادَى بِنَا خَيْلُنَا حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا الرَّوْضَةَ ، فَإِذَا نَحْنُ بِالظَّعِينَةِ ، فَقُلْنَا : أَخْرِجِي الْكِتَابَ ، قَالَتْ : مَا مَعِي مِنْ كِتَابٍ ، قُلْنَا : لَتُخْرِجِنَّ الْكِتَابَ أَوْ لَنَقْلِبَنَّ الثِّيَابَ ، قَالَ : فَأَخْرَجَتْ الْكِتَابَ مِنْ عِقَاصِهَا ، فَأَخَذْنَا الْكِتَابَ ، فَأَتَيْنَا بِهِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَإِذَا فِيهِ : مِنْ حَاطِبِ بْنِ أَبِي بَلْتَعَةَ إِلَى نَاسٍ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِمَكَّةَ ، يُخْبِرُهُمْ بِبَعْضِ أَمْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يَا حَاطِبُ ، مَا هَذَا ؟ " ، قَالَ : لَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيَّ ، إِنِّي كُنْتُ امْرَأً مُلْصَقًا فِي قُرَيْشٍ ، وَلَمْ أَكُنْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهَا ، وَكَانَ مَنْ كَانَ مَعَكَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ لَهُمْ قَرَابَاتٌ يَحْمُونَ أَهْلِيهِمْ بِمَكَّةَ ، فَأَحْبَبْتُ إِذْ فَاتَنِي ذَلِكَ مِنَ النَّسَبِ فِيهِمْ أَنْ أَتَّخِذَ فِيهِمْ يَدًا يَحْمُونَ بِهَا قَرَابَتِي ، وَمَا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ كُفْرًا ، وَلَا ارْتِدَادًا عَنْ دِينِي ، وَلَا رِضًا بِالْكُفْرِ بَعْدَ الْإِسْلَامِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّهُ قَدْ صَدَقَكُمْ " ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : دَعْنِي أَضْرِبْ عُنُقَ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقِ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّهُ قَدْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا ، وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ اطَّلَعَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ فَقَالَ : اعْمَلُوا مَا شِئْتُمْ ، فَقَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَكُمْ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) sent me, Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him), and Sayyiduna Miqdad (may Allah be pleased with him) to a certain place and said: "You people set out, when you reach Rawdat Khakh, there you will find a woman who will have a letter with her. Take that letter from her and return." So we set out, our horses were almost slipping from our hands, until we reached Rawdat Khakh. There, indeed, we found a woman. We said to her, "Hand over the letter you have." She said, "I have no letter." We said to her, "Either you hand over the letter yourself, or we will strip you naked." Compelled, she took out a letter from her hair braid and handed it over to us. We took that letter and presented it to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). When the letter was opened, it was found to be from Hatib bin Abi Balta'ah to some polytheists of Makkah, in which news of one of the Prophet's (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) decisions was conveyed. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked him, "Hatib! What is this?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah! Do not be hasty in my matter. I do not belong to the Quraysh, but I have joined them. All the emigrants with you have relatives in Makkah who protect their families. I thought that I have no blood relatives there, so I would do them a favor so that in return they would protect my relatives. I did not do this as a disbeliever, or as an apostate, or preferring disbelief after Islam." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "He has told you the truth." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), overcome with emotion, said: "Allow me to strike the neck of this hypocrite?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "He participated in the Battle of Badr, and what do you know, perhaps Allah looked upon the people of Badr from the heavens and said: 'Do whatever you wish, I have forgiven you.'"
