حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ , حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ , أَنْبَأَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْجُمَحِيُّ , عَنْ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ , عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي زُهَيْرٍ الثَّقَفِيِّ , عَنْ أَبِيهِ , قَالَ : خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالنَّبَا أَوْ الْنَبَاوَةِ , قَالَ : وَالنَّبَاوَةُ مِنْ الطَّائِفِ , قَالَ : " يُوشِكُ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ " , قَالُوا : بِمَ ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " بِالثَّنَاءِ الْحَسَنِ , وَالثَّنَاءِ السَّيِّئِ , أَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ " .
´It was narrated from Abu Bakr bin Abu Zuhair Ath-Thaqafi, that his father said:` “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) addressed us in Nabawah” or Banawah – he (one of the narrators) said: “Nabawah is near Ta’if” – “And said: ‘Soon you will be able to tell the people of Paradise from the people of Hell.’ They said: ‘How O Messenger of Allah?’ He said: ‘By praise and condemnation. You are Allah’s witnesses over one another.’”
