أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَدِيبُ، ثنا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ حَمَّادِ بْنِ جَابِرٍ الزَّيَّاتُ، بِالرَّمْلَةِ، ثنا يَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ مِرْشَلِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ، ثنا شِهَابُ بْنُ خِرَاشٍ، عَنْ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ رُزَيْقٍ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ حَزْنٍ الْكُلْفِيِّ قَالَ: أَتَيْنَاهُ فَأَنْشَأَ يُحَدِّثُنَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: " وَفَدْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَابِعَ سَبْعَةٍ، أَوْ تَاسِعَ تِسْعَةٍ، فَأَذِنَ لَنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَسَلَّمْنَا، فَقُلْنَا: زُرْنَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لِتَدْعُوَ اللهَ لَنَا، أَوْ تَدْعُوَ لَنَا بِخَيْرٍ، قَالَ: فَدَعَا لَنَا بِخَيْرٍ، فَأَمَرَ بِنَا فَأُنْزِلْنَا وَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ، وَالشَّأْنُ إِذْ ذَاكَ دُونٌ. قَالَ: فَأَقَمْتُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَيَّامًا شَهِدْنَا فِيهَا الْجُمُعَةَ، فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَى قَوْسٍ، أَوْ قَالَ عَلَى عَصًا، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ بِكَلِمَاتٍ خَفِيفَاتٍ طَيِّبَاتٍ مُبَارَكَاتٍ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تُطِيقُوا، أَوْ إِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَفْعَلُوا كُلَّ مَا أُمِرْتُمْ بِهِ، وَلَكِنْ سَدِّدُوا، وَقَارِبُوا، وَأَبْشِرُوا ". وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ وَغَيْرِهِ عَنْ شِهَابِ بْنِ خِرَاشٍ.
Shu'ayb bin Ruzayq narrates from al-Hakam bin Hazn al-Kulafi (may Allah be pleased with him): We came to him, and he began narrating to us the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: We came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) as a delegation of nine or seven men. We asked his permission and he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave us permission. We went in to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and after greeting him with salam we said: O Messenger of Allah! We have come to visit you (peace and blessings be upon him) so that you may pray to Allah for us, or he said: so that you may pray for good for us. He (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for good for us, ordered that we be hosted as guests, and ordered some dates for us; and circumstances at that time were modest.
We stayed with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and during those days we attended the Friday prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood leaning on a bow or a staff. He (peace and blessings be upon him) praised and extolled Allah with pure and blessed words. Then he said: "O people! You will not be able to," or he said: "You will never be able to do everything you have been commanded, but stay on the right course, keep to moderation, and receive glad tidings."

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعْدٍ الْمَالِينِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ، ثنا أَبُو يَحْيَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْحَرَّانِيُّ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَمَّارِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ مُؤَذِّنُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ آبَائِهِ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " كَانَ إِذَا خَطَبَ فِي الْحَرْبِ خَطَبَ عَلَى قَوْسٍ، وَإِذَا خَطَبَ فِي الْجُمُعَةِ خَطَبَ عَلَى عَصًا ".
Abd al-Rahman bin Sa'd bin Ammar bin Sa'd (Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) being the mu'adhdhin of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)) says: My father narrated to me from his forefathers (may Allah be pleased with them) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon in battle or fighting, he would lean on a bow, and when he delivered the Friday sermon, he would lean on a staff.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي، أنبا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ، أنبا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ: " أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُومُ إِذَا خَطَبَ عَلَى عَصًا؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، وَكَانَ يَعْتَمِدُ عَلَيْهَا اعْتِمَادًا ".
Ibn Jurayj (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I said to Ata' (may Allah have mercy on him): Did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stand leaning on a staff when he delivered the sermon? He said: Yes, he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to lean on it.
