أَخْبَرَنِي
زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ ، عَنْ
يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي الْحَجَّاجِ ، عَنْ
سَعِيدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ ، عَنْ
ثُمَامَةَ بْنِ حَزْنٍ الْقُشَيْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : شَهِدْتُ الدَّارَ حِينَ أَشْرَفَ عَلَيْهِمْ
عُثْمَانُ ، فَقَالَ : أَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ وَبِالْإِسْلَامِ : هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ ، وَلَيْسَ بِهَا مَاءٌ يُسْتَعْذَبُ غَيْرَ بِئْرِ رُومَةَ ، فَقَالَ : " مَنْ يَشْتَرِي بِئْرَ رُومَةَ ، فَيَجْعَلُ فِيهَا دَلْوَهُ مَعَ دِلَاءِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بِخَيْرٍ لَهُ مِنْهَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ " ؟ فَاشْتَرَيْتُهَا مِنْ صُلْبِ مَالِي ، فَجَعَلْتُ دَلْوِي فِيهَا مَعَ دِلَاءِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، وَأَنْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ تَمْنَعُونِي مِنَ الشُّرْبِ مِنْهَا حَتَّى أَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَاءِ الْبَحْرِ ، قَالُوا : اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَأَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ وَالْإِسْلَامِ : هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي جَهَّزْتُ جَيْشَ الْعُسْرَةِ مِنْ مَالِي ؟ قَالُوا : اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَأَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ وَالْإِسْلَامِ : هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ الْمَسْجِدَ ضَاقَ بِأَهْلِهِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنْ يَشْتَرِي بُقْعَةَ آلِ فُلَانٍ ، فَيَزِيدُهَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ بِخَيْرٍ لَهُ مِنْهَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ " ، فَاشْتَرَيْتُهَا مِنْ صُلْبِ مَالِي ، فَزِدْتُهَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، وَأَنْتُمْ تَمْنَعُونِي أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِيهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، قَالُوا : اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : أَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ وَالْإِسْلَامِ : هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ عَلَى ثَبِيرٍ ثَبِيرِ مَكَّةَ ، وَمَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، وَعُمَرُ ، وَأَنَا ، فَتَحَرَّكَ الْجَبَلُ ، فَرَكَضَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِرِجْلِهِ ، وَقَالَ : " اسْكُنْ ثَبِيرُ ، فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ نَبِيٌّ ، وَصِدِّيقٌ ، وَشَهِيدَانِ " ؟ قَالُوا : اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ، شَهِدُوا لِي وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ " ، يَعْنِي : أَنِّي شَهِيدٌ .
´It was narrated that Thumamah bin Hazn Al-Qushairi said:` "I was present at the house when 'Uthman looked out over them and said: 'I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that when the Messenger of Allah came to Al-Madinah, and it had no water that was considered sweet (suitable for drinking) except the well of Rumah, he said: "Who will buy the well of Rumah and dip his bucket in it alongside the buckets of the Muslims, in return for a better one in Paradise?" and I bought it with my capital and dipped my bucket into it alongside the buckets of the Muslims? Yet today you are preventing me from drinking from it, so that I have to drink salty water.' They said: 'By Allah, yes.' He said: 'I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that I equipped the army of Al-'Usrah (Tabuk) from my own wealth?' They said: 'By Allah, yes.' He said: 'I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that when the Masjid became too small for the people and the Messenger of Allah said: Who will buy the plot of the family of so and so and add it to the Masjid, in return for a better plot in Paradise? I bought it with my capital and added it to the Masjid? Yet now you are preventing me from praying two Rak'ahs therein.' They said: 'By Allah, yes.' He said: 'I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that when the Messenger of Allah was atop Thabir -the Thabir in Makkah- and with him were Abu Bakr, 'Umar and myself, the mountain shook, and the Messenger of Allah kicked it with his foot and said: Be still, Thabir, for upon you are a Prophet, a Siddiq and two martyrs?' They said: 'By Allah, yes.' He said: 'Allahu Akbar! They have testified for me, by the Lord of the Ka'bah' -i.e., that I am a martyr."
