Hadith of Ibn al-Muntafiq (may Allah be pleased with him)
Hadith 27153
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ , حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جُحَادَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْيَشْكُرِيُّ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : انْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى الْكُوفَةِ لِأَجْلِبَ بِغَالًا ، قَالَ : فَأَتَيْتُ السُّوقَ وَلَمْ تُقَمْ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : لِصَاحِبٍ لِي : لَوْ دَخَلْنَا الْمَسْجِدَ وَمَوْضِعُهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي أَصْحَابِ التَّمْرِ ، فَإِذَا فِيهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قَيْسٍ ، يُقَالُ لَهُ : ابْنُ الْمُنْتَفِقِ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : وُصِفَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَحُلِّيَ ، فَطَلَبْتُهُ بمكة فقيل لي : هو بمنى فطلبته بِمِنًى ، فَقِيلَ لِي ، هُوَ بِعَرَفَاتٍ ، فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ , فَزَاحَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقِيلَ لِي : إِلَيْكَ عَنْ طَرِيقِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " دَعُوا الرَّجُلَ أَرِبَ مَا لَهُ " ، قَالَ : فَزَاحَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى خَلَصْتُ إِلَيْهِ ، قَالَ : فَأَخَذْتُ بِخِطَامِ رَاحِلَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوْ قَالَ : زِمَامِهَا هَكَذَا حَدَّثَ مُحَمَّدٌ , حَتَّى اخْتَلَفَتْ أَعْنَاقُ رَاحِلَتَيْنَا ، قَالَ : فَمَا يَزَعُنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوْ قَالَ : مَا غَيَّرَ عَلَيَّ , هَكَذَا حَدَّثَ مُحَمَّدٌ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : ثِنْتَانِ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْهُمَا : مَا يُنَجِّينِي مِنَ النَّارِ ، وَمَا يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ ؟ قَالَ : فَنَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ، ثُمَّ نَكَسَ رَأْسَهُ ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيَّ بِوَجْهِهِ ، قَالَ : " لَئِنْ كُنْتَ أَوْجَزْتَ فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ ، لَقَدْ أَعْظَمْتَ وَأَطْوَلْتَ ، فَاعْقِلْ عَنِّي إِذًا : اعْبُدْ اللَّهَ لَا تُشْرِكْ بِهِ شَيْئًا ، وَأَقِمْ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ ، وَأَدِّ الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ ، وَصُمْ رَمَضَانَ ، وَمَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهُ بِكَ النَّاسُ ، فَافْعَلْهُ بِهِمْ ، وَمَا تَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِلَيْكَ النَّاسُ ، فَذَرْ النَّاسَ مِنْهُ " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " خَلِّ سَبِيلَ الرَّاحِلَةِ " .
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 was a man named Ibn Muntafiq, who began to narrate this hadith: I received news of the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) Farewell Pilgrimage, so I selected a ride-worthy camel from among my camels and set out. When I reached a place on the way to Arafah, I sat down. When the Prophet (peace be upon him) mounted his ride, I recognized him by his appearance. Meanwhile, a man who was ahead of him said, “Move out of the way of the riders!” 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 two 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, wonderful! Although you have asked a very concise question, it is a very excellent one. 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 riders.”
Hadith 27154
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 " .
