Bayhaqi 7438 — Estimating dates on the tree, and the evidence

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْمِهْرَجَانِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمُزَكِّي، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْعَبْدِيُّ، ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَبْعَثُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ رَوَاحَةَ فَيَخْرُصُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ يَهُوَدَ، قَالَ: فَجَمَعُوا لَهُ حُلِيًّا مِنْ حُلِيِّ نِسَائِهِمْ، فَقَالُوا: هَذَا لَكَ وَخَفِّفْ عَنَّا وَتَجَاوَزْ فِي الْقَسْمِ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: يَا مَعْشَرَ يَهُوَدَ، وَاللهِ إِنَّكُمْ لَمِنْ أَبْغَضِ خَلْقِ اللهِ إِلَيَّ وَمَا ذَلِكَ بِحَامِلِي عَلَى أَنْ أَحِيفَ عَلَيْكُمْ، فَأَمَّا الَّذِي عَرَّضْتُمْ مِنَ الرِّشْوَةِ فَإِنَّهَا سُحْتٌ وَإِنَّا لَا نَأْكُلُهَا. قَالُوا: بِهَذَا قَامَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالْأَرْضُ.
Sulayman bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to send Abdullah bin Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him), and he would make the estimate between him and the Jews. Then they gathered for him some of their women's jewellery and said: This is for you; lighten it for us and overlook (some) in the division. Abdullah bin Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O community of Jews! By Allah, you are among the most hateful of Allah's creation to me, yet that will not lead me to wrong you. As for the bribe you have offered, it is unlawful, and we do not consume it. They said: By this (justice) the heavens and the earth stand firm.
