قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا
جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الضُّبَعِيُّ، عَنْ
أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ، عَنْ
أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ، قَال : سَمِعْتُ
أَبِي بِحَضْرَةِ الْعَدُوِّ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ أَبْوَابَ الْجَنَّةِ تَحْتَ ظِلَالِ السُّيُوفِ " ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ رَثُّ الْهَيْئَةِ : أَأَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَذْكُرُهُ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، فَرَجَعَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ ، فَقَالَ : أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامَ ، وَكَسَرَ جَفْنَ سَيْفِهِ فَضَرَبَ بِهِ حَتَّى قُتِلَ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ الضُّبَعِيِّ ، وَأَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ اسْمُهُ : عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ ابْنُ أَبِي مُوسَى ، قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ : هُوَ اسْمُهُ .
Abu Bakr bin Abu Musa Ash'ari says: I heard my father say in the presence of the enemies: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Indeed, the gates of Paradise are under the shade of swords." 1 A man from the people, who had a disheveled appearance, asked: Did you hear the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say this while describing it? He said: Yes. So that man returned to his companions and said: I bid you all peace, then he broke the sheath of his sword and fought with it until he was martyred. © Imam Tirmidhi says:
This hadith is Hasan Gharib; we know it only from the narration of Ja'far bin Sulaiman Duba'i.
