Bayhaqi 16720 — The evidence that the rebel party of the two

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، وَأَبُو صَادِقِ بْنُ أَبِي الْفَوَارِسِ، قَالُوا: ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، أَنْبَأَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنْبَأَ الْعَوَّامُ بْنُ حَوْشَبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، قَالَ: رَأَى عَمْرُو بْنُ شُرَحْبِيلَ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَفَاضِلِ أَصْحَابِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ كَأَنِّي دَخَلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِقِبَابٍ مَضْرُوبَةٍ، فَقُلْتُ: لِمَنْ هَذَا؟ فَقَالَ: لِذِي كَلَاعٍ وَحَوْشَبٍ، وَكَانَا مِمَّنْ قُتِلَ مَعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَا فَعَلَ عَمَّارٌ وَأَصْحَابُهُ؟ قَالُوا: أَمَامَكَ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَقَدْ قَتَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا، فَقَالَ: إِنَّهُمْ لَقُوا اللهَ فَوَجَدُوهُ وَاسِعَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَا فَعَلَ أَهْلُ النَّهْرِ؟، قَالَ: لَقُوا بَرَحًا، فَقَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ: فَسَمِعْتُ يَزِيدَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ بِبَغْدَادَ، وَكَانَ يُقَالُ: إِنَّ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا، قَالَ: لَا تَغْتَرُّوا بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، فَإِنَّ ذَا الْكَلَاعِ وَحَوْشَبًا أَعْتَقَا اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ أَلْفَ أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ، وَذَكَرَ مِنْ مَحَاسِنِهِمْ أَشْيَاءً.
Abu Wa'il (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Amr bin Shurahbil (may Allah have mercy on him), who was among the most eminent companions of Sayyiduna Abdullah (bin Mas'ud) (may Allah be pleased with him), saw in a dream (and said): I entered Paradise and saw great domes there. I asked: For whom are these? I was told: These are for Dhu al-Kala' and Hawshab. These two were among those who were killed alongside Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him). I said: What became of Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) and his companions? He said: They are ahead of you. I said: 'Subhan Allah' (Glory be to Allah)! They killed one another — and yet (they are) together? The reply came: They found Allah's forgiveness vast. I said: What happened to the people of al-Nahr? He said: They met with hardship. Yahya bin Abi Talib says: I heard Yazid in a gathering — he was in Baghdad, and there were seventy thousand people in the gathering — and he said: Do not let this hadith deceive you, for Dhu al-Kala' and Hawshab freed twelve thousand (12000) households; and he mentioned other merits of theirs as well.
