Hadith 6510

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْأَخْنَسِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ مَاهَكَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَكْتُبُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَسْمَعُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أُرِيدُ حِفْظَهُ ، فَنَهَتْنِي قُرَيْشٌ ، فَقَالُوا : إِنَّكَ تَكْتُبُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ تَسْمَعُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَشَرٌ ، يَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الْغَضَبِ وَالرِّضَا ، فَأَمْسَكْتُ عَنِ الْكِتَابِ ، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ فَقَالَ : " اكْتُبْ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا خَرَجَ مِنِّي إِلَّا حَقٌّ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr, may Allah be pleased with him, that whatever I heard from the tongue of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, I used to write it down so that I could remember it. The people of Quraysh forbade me from this and said, "You write down everything you hear from the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, even though the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, is also a human being; sometimes he speaks in anger and sometimes in happiness." After what those people said, I stopped writing and mentioned this to the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. The Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Write! By the One in whose hand is my soul, nothing comes out from my tongue except the truth."
