Hadith 536
536 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ: ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي مُسْلِمٍ الْأَحْوَلُ وَكَانَ ثِقَةً قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ: يَوْمُ الْخَمِيسِ وَمَا يَوْمُ الْخَمِيسِ؟ ثُمَّ بَكَي حَتَّي بَلَّ دَمْعُهُ الْحَصَي فَقِيلَ لَهُ: يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ وَمَا يَوْمُ الْخَمِيسِ؟ قَالَ اشْتَدَّ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَجَعُهُ يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ فَقَالَ: «ايْتُونِي أَكْتُبْ لَكُمْ كِتَابًا لَنْ تَضِلُّوا بَعْدَهُ أَبَدًا» فَتَنَازَعُوا وَلَا يَنْبَغِي عِنْدَ نَبِيٍّ تَنَازُعٌ، فَقَالَ مَا شَأْنُهُ؟ أَهَجَرَ؟ اسْتَفْهِمُوهُ فَرَدُّوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ: «دَعُونِي فَالَّذِي أَنَا فِيهِ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا تَدْعُونِي إِلَيْهِ» قَالَ: وَأَوْصَاهُمْ بِثَلَاثٍ فَقَالَ «أَخْرِجُوا الْمُشْرِكِينَ مِنْ جَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِ، وَأَجِيزُوا الْوَفْدَ بِنَحْوِ مَا كُنْتُ أُجِيزُهُمْ» قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ لَا أَدْرِي أَذَكَرَ سَعِيدٌ الثَّالِثَةَ فَنَسِيتُهَا أَوْ سَكَتَ عَنْهَا
Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: What a day Thursday was! Then he began to weep, until his tears fell upon the ground. He was asked: O Abu Abbas! What happened on Thursday? So he replied: On Thursday, the pain of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) increased. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Bring me something so that I may write for you a document after which you will never go astray.” (Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, says) Then there was a disagreement among those present, although such disagreement in the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was not appropriate. Someone said: What is the matter with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? Is what he says unclear? Ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The people asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) again, so he said: “Leave me as I am. The state I am in is better than what you are calling me to.” Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) advised them regarding three things. He said: “Expel the polytheists from the Arabian Peninsula, and honor the delegations as I used to honor them.” Sufyan says: The narrator named Sulaiman mentioned this, but I do not know whether the narrator named Saeed mentioned the third thing and I forgot it, or he did not mention the third thing at all.
