2762. It was reported from Hārīthah bin Muḍarrib that he came to ‘Abdullāh, and said: “There is no hatred between myself and any of the Arabs. I passed by a Masjid of Banū Ḥanīfah, and found them believing in Musailimah (as a Prophet).” ‘Abdullāh sent for them. They were brought to him. He advised them to repent, which they did, except for Ibn An-Nawwāhah. He said to him: “I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: ‘If it wasn’t that you are a messenger I would have cut off your neck’ and you are not a messenger today. He ordered Qarazah bin Ka’b to cut off his head at the market. Then he said: ‘Whoever wants to see Ibn An-Nawwāhah, (he can go and see him) killed in the market.’” (Da’if)

2762 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ مُضَرِّبٍ، أَنَّهُ أَتَى عَبْدَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ: مَا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ حِنَةٌ، وَإِنِّي مَرَرْتُ بِمَسْجِدٍ لِبَنِي حَنِيفَةَ، فَإِذَا هُمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِمُسَيْلِمَةَ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمْ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ فَجِيءَ بِهِمْ فَاسْتَتَابَهُمْ، غَيْرَ ابْنِ النَّوَّاحَةِ قَالَ لَهُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «لَوْلَا أَنَّكَ رَسُولٌ لَضَرَبْتُ عُنُقَكَ» فَأَنْتَ الْيَوْمَ لَسْتَ بِرَسُولٍ "، فَأَمَرَ قَرَظَةَ بْنَ كَعْبٍ فَضَرَبَ عُنُقَهُ فِي السُّوقِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى ابْنِ النَّوَّاحَةِ قَتِيلًا بِالسُّوقِ»
