فَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، ثنا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مِقْسَمٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ، فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ مُعَاذٍ وَتِلْكَ الْقِصَّةَ قَالَ: كَانَ مُعَاذٌ يُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْعِشَاءَ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيُصَلِّي بِأَصْحَابِهِ فَرَجَعَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ، وَصَلَّى خَلْفَهُ فَتًى مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، فَلَمَّا طَالَ عَلَى الْفَتَى صَلَّى وَخَرَجَ وَأَخَذَ بِخِطَامِ بَعِيرِهِ وَانْطَلَقَ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى مُعَاذٌ ذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ هَذَا بِهِ لَنِفَاقٌ لَأُخْبِرَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالَّذِي صَنَعَ، وَقَالَ الْفَتَى: وَأَنَا لَأُخْبِرَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالَّذِي صَنَعَ، فَغَدَوْا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ مُعَاذٌ بِالَّذِي صَنَعَ الْفَتَى، فَقَالَ الْفَتَى: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ يُطِيلُ الْمُكْثَ عِنْدَكَ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيُطِيلُ عَلَيْنَا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَفَتَّانٌ أَنْتَ يَا مُعَاذُ؟ "، وَقَالَ للْفَتَى: " كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ؟ " قَالَ: أَقْرَأُ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَأَسْأَلُ اللهَ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَعُوذُ بِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ، وَأَنِّي لَا أَدْرِي مَا دَنْدَنَتُكَ وَدَنْدَنَةُ مُعَاذٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنِّي وَمُعَاذٌ حَوْلَ هَاتَيْنِ، أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَا " قَالَ: فَقَالَ الْفَتَى: وَلَكِنْ سَيَعْلَمُ مُعَاذٌ إِذَا قَدِمَ الْقَوْمُ وَقَدْ خُبِّرُوا أَنَّ الْعَدُوَّ قَدْ أَتَوْا، قَالَ: فَقَدِمُوا، فَاسْتُشْهِدَ الْفَتَى. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ لِمُعَاذٍ: " مَا فَعَلَ خَصْمِي وَخَصْمُكَ؟ " قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، صَدَقَ اللهَ، وَكَذَبْتُ، اسْتُشْهِدَ.
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned the story of Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him); in it is that Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) used to pray the Isha prayer with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then return and lead his companions in prayer. One night he returned and led them in prayer, and a young man from his people prayed behind him. When the prayer became long for the young man, he left the congregation, prayed his own prayer, took hold of his camel's halter and went away. When Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) finished the prayer, he was told about it, and he said: "This is a hypocrite; I will inform the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about him." And the young man said: "I too will inform the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) of what he did." In the morning they went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) told the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) what the young man had done. The young man said: "O Messenger of Allah! He stays a long time with you (peace and blessings be upon him), then comes back and leads us in a long prayer." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Mu'adh! Are you one who puts people to trial?" And he asked the young man: "O son of my brother! What do you do when you pray?" He said: "I recite Surah al-Fatihah, ask Allah for Paradise and seek refuge with Him from the Fire. I do not understand your humming and the humming of Mu'adh." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Mu'adh and I revolve around these two," or he said something like it. The narrator says: The young man said: "But Mu'adh will come to know when the people come, and they have been told that the enemy has come." The narrator says: They came, and the young man was martyred. After that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him): "What became of the one who disputed with me and with you?" Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "He was true to Allah and I spoke falsely; he has been martyred."
