حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النَّاقِدُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ ، عَنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ جَدَّتِهِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهَا سُوَيْدِ بْنِ حَنْظَلَةَ ، قَالَ : " خَرَجْنَا نُرِيدُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَمَعَنَا وَائِلُ بْنُ حُجْرٍ ، فَأَخَذَهُ عَدُوٌّ لَهُ ، فَتَحَرَّجَ الْقَوْمُ أَنْ يَحْلِفُوا ، وَحَلَفْتُ أَنَّهُ أَخِي ، فَخَلَّى سَبِيلَهُ ، فَأَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّ الْقَوْمَ تَحَرَّجُوا أَنْ يَحْلِفُوا ، وَحَلَفْتُ أَنَّهُ أَخِي ، قَالَ : صَدَقْتَ الْمُسْلِمُ أَخُو الْمُسْلِمِ " .
Narrated Suwayd ibn Hanzalah: We went out intending (to visit) the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Wail ibn Hujr was with us. His enemy caught him. The people desisted from swearing an oath, but I took an oath that he was my brother. So he left him. We then came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I informed him that the people desisted from taking the oath, but I swore that he was my brother. He said: You spoke the truth: A Muslim is a brother of a Muslim.
