1642. 'Awf bin Mālik narrated: "We were with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, seven, eight or nine of us, when he said: 'Will you not give your pledge of allegiance to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?' And we had recently given our pledge (already), so we said: 'We have given you our pledge of allegiance,' but he said it three times. So we stretched forth our hands and pledged allegiance to him. One person said: 'O Messenger of Allāh! We have already given you our pledge, so what are we pledging our allegiance to (now)?' He said: 'That you worship Allāh, and do not associate any partners with Him, and that you pray the five prayers, and that you hear and obey (your rulers)...,' and then he said something very softly, '...and that you do not ask people for anything.' So indeed, some of those people (obeyed to such an extent) that his whip would fall (from his mount), and he would not ask anyone to hand it to him." (Saḥih) Abū Dāwūd said: This narration of Hishām was not reported except from Sa'eed.

1642 - حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي مُسْلِمٍ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الْحَبِيبُ الْأَمِينُ أَمَّا هُوَ إِلَيَّ فَحَبِيبٌ، وَأَمَّا هُوَ عِنْدِي فَأَمِينٌ عَوْفُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَبْعَةً، أَوْ ثَمَانِيَةً، أَوْ تِسْعَةً، فَقَالَ: «أَلَا تُبَايِعُونَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟» وَكُنَّا حَدِيثَ عَهْدٍ بِبَيْعَةٍ، قُلْنَا: قَدْ بَايَعْنَاكَ، حَتَّى قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا، فَبَسَطْنَا أَيْدِيَنَا فَبَايَعْنَاهُ، فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّا قَدْ بَايَعْنَاكَ، فَعَلَامَ نُبَايِعُكَ؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تَعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا، وَتُصَلُّوا الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ، وَتَسْمَعُوا وَتُطِيعُوا»، وَأَسَرَّ كَلِمَةً خَفِيَّةً، قَالَ: «وَلَا تَسْأَلُوا النَّاسَ شَيْئًا»، قَالَ: فَلَقَدْ كَانَ بَعْضُ أُولَئِكَ النَّفَرِ يَسْقُطُ سَوْطُهُ فَمَا يَسْأَلُ أَحَدًا أَنْ يُنَاوِلَهُ إِيَّاهُ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «حَدِيثُ هِشَامٍ لَمْ يَرْوِهِ إِلَّا سَعِيدٌ»
