Bayhaqi 11855 — The order of irrigating crops and trees from public

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبْدُوسٍ، ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ثنا نُعَيْمُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، ثنا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، أنبأ مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ: خَاصَمَ الزُّبَيْرُ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فِي شَراجِ الْحَرَّةِ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " اسْقِ يَا زُبَيْرُ ثُمَّ أَرْسِلْهُ إِلَى جَارِكَ "، فَقَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَأَنْ كَانَ ابْنَ عَمَّتِكَ فَتَلَوَّنَ وَجْهُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: " اسْقِ يَا زُبَيْرُ، ثُمَّ احْبِسِ الْمَاءَ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ إِلَى الْجَدْرِ، ثُمَّ أَرْسِلِ الْمَاءَ إِلَى جَارِكَ ". فَقَالَ: وَاسْتَوْعَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلزُّبَيْرِ حَقَّهُ فِي صَرِيحِ الْحُكْمِ حِينَ أَحْفَظَهُ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ، وَكَانَ أَشَارَ عَلَيْهِمَا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ بِأَمْرٍ كَانَ لَهُمَا فِيهِ سَعَةٌ، قَالَ الزُّبَيْرُ: فَمَا أَحْسِبُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ إِلَّا نَزَلَتْ فِي ذَلِكَ {فَلَا وَرَبِّكَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّى يُحَكِّمُوكَ فِيمَا شَجَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ} [النساء: ٦٥] قَالَ: فَسَمِعْتُ غَيْرَ الزُّهْرِيِّ يَقُولُ: نَظَرْتُ فِي قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " ثُمَّ احْبِسِ الْمَاءَ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ إِلَى الْجَدْرِ " فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَبْدَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ مُخْتَصَرًا.
Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) had a dispute with a man of the Ansar over the water channel of the Harrah. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Zubayr! Water (your garden), then let it go to your neighbour." The Ansari said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Is it because Zubayr is the son of your paternal aunt?" The colour of the face of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) changed, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Zubayr! Water (your garden), then hold back the water until it rises to the walls, then let it go to your neighbour." Because of the Ansari's objection, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) his full right, whereas before that there had been leeway for both of them. Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I think this verse was revealed concerning that: 'But no, by your Lord, they will not believe until they make you judge' [Surah al-Nisa: 65]." He said: I heard from someone other than al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) that the meaning of the words of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), 'Then hold back the water until it rises to the walls,' was that it should reach the ankles.
