Hadith 3425
أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ ، عَنْ رَجَاءِ بْنِ حَيُوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، قَالَ : أَنْشَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَيْشًا ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، ادْعُ اللَّهَ لِي بِالشَّهَادَةِ ، قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ سَلِّمْهُمْ وَغَنِّمْهُمْ " ، فَغَزَوْنَا ، فَسَلِمْنَا وَغَنِمْنَا ، حَتَّى ذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي أَتَيْتُكَ تَتْرَى ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تَدْعُوَ لِي بِالشَّهَادَةِ ، فَقُلْتَ : " اللَّهُمَّ سَلِّمْهُمْ وَغَنِّمْهُمْ " ، فَسَلِمْنَا وَغَنِمْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، فَمُرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ أَدْخُلُ بِهِ الْجَنَّةَ ، فَقَالَ : " عَلَيْكَ بِالصَّوْمِ ، فَإِنَّهُ لا مِثْلَ لَهُ " ، قَالَ : فَكَانَ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ لا يُرَى فِي بَيْتِهِ الدُّخَانُ نَهَارًا إِلا إِذَا نَزَلَ بِهِمْ ضَيْفٌ ، فَإِذَا رَأَوَا الدُّخَانَ نَهَارًا ، عَرَفُوا أَنَّهُ قَدِ اعْتَرَاهُمْ ضَيْفٌ ، قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ : رَوَى هَذَا الْخَبَرَ مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ ، عَنْ رَجَاءِ بْنِ حَيُوَةَ ، وَرَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلالٍ ، عَنْ رَجَاءِ بْنِ حَيُوَةَ .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) prepared an army. I presented myself before him and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon you)! Pray for martyrdom for me." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "O Allah! Keep these people safe and grant them war booty." We participated in the battle, we remained safe, and we were granted war booty, to the extent that the narrator mentioned this three times. The narrator says: Then I presented myself before the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon you)! I have come to you three times and requested you to pray for martyrdom for me, but you said, 'O Allah! Keep these people safe and grant them war booty.' O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon you)! We have remained safe and have been granted war booty. Now command me regarding an action by which I may enter Paradise." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Fasting is incumbent upon you, for there is nothing like it." The narrator says: So, smoke was never seen coming from the house of Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) during the day, except on a day when a guest was present. When smoke was seen coming from his house during the day, people would know that a guest had come to him. (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:): Mahdi bin Maymun narrated this from Muhammad bin Abu Ya'qub from Raja, while Shu'bah narrated this from Muhammad bin Abu Ya'qub from Humayd bin Hilal from Raja.
Hadith 3426
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَرُوبَةَ ، بِحَرَّانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا نَصْرٍ الْهِلالِيَّ ، عَنْ رَجَاءِ بْنِ حَيُوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، دُلَّنِي عَلَى عَمَلٍ ، قَالَ : " عَلَيْكَ بِالصَّوْمِ ، فَإِنَّهُ لا عِدْلَ لَهُ " قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ : أَبُو نَصْرٍ هَذَا : هُوَ حُمَيْدُ بْنُ هِلالٍ ، وَلَسْتُ أُنْكِرُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ سَمِعَ هَذَا الْخَبَرَ بِطُولِهِ ، عَنْ رَجَاءِ بْنِ حَيُوَةَ ، وَسَمِعَ بَعْضَهُ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلالٍ ، فَالطَّرِيقَانِ جَمِيعًا مَحْفُوظَانِ .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Guide me towards a deed." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You must observe fasting, for there is nothing equal to it." (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:): This narrator named Abu Nasr is Humaid bin Hilal. I do not deny the possibility that Muhammad bin Abu Ya'qub heard this narration in detail from Raja', and then he heard a part of it from Humaid bin Hilal, so both of its chains will be preserved.
