أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصَمُّ، ثَنَا بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرٍِ، ثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ، أَنَّ الْوَلِيدَ بْنَ عُقْبَةَ، كَانَ بِالْعِرَاقِ يَلْعَبُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ سَاحِرٌ، وَكَانَ يَضْرِبُ رَأْسَ الرَّجُلِ ثُمَّ يَصِيحُ بِهِ فَيَقُومُ خَارِجًا فَيَرْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ رَأْسُهُ، فَقَالَ النَّاسُ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ يُحْيِي الْمَوْتَى. وَرَآهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ صَالِحِ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ اشْتَمَلَ عَلَى سَيْفِهِ، فَذَهَبَ يَلْعَبُ لَعِبَهُ ذَلِكَ، فَاخْتَرَطَ الرَّجُلُ سَيْفَهُ فَضَرَبَ عُنُقَهُ فَقَالَ: إِنْ كَانَ صَادِقًا فَلْيُحْيِ نَفْسَهُ، وَأَمَرَ بِهِ الْوَلِيدُ دِينَارًا صَاحِبَ السِّجْنِ، وَكَانَ رَجُلًا ⦗٢٣٥⦘ صَالِحًا فَسَجَنَهُ، فَأَعْجَبَهُ نَحْوُ الرَّجُلِ، فَقَالَ: أَفَتَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تَهْرُبَ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَاخْرُجْ لَا يَسْأَلُنِي اللهُ عَنْكَ أَبَدًا.
Sayyiduna al-Walid bin Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) was once in Iraq and saw a sorcerer performing tricks: he would cut off a man's head and then restore it. People began to say: "Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah)! He is bringing the dead to life." A righteous man from the Muhajirun was also there. He went away, and the next day, when the sorcerer began to perform his trick, he came with his sword and struck off the sorcerer's head, saying: "If he was so truthful, let him now bring himself back to life." Sayyiduna al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered that he be handed over to Dinar, the keeper of the prison, who was a righteous man, and he imprisoned him. But he admired the man's conduct, so he said: "Can you escape?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Then go out; Allah will never question me about you."
