4650. Riyāḥ bin Al-Ḥārīth said: "I was sitting with so-and-so in the Masjid of Al-Kūfah, and the people of Al-Kūfah were with him. Sa'eed bin Zaid bin 'Amr bin Nufail came, and he welcomed him, and greeted him, and seated him by his feet on the couch. One of the people of Al-Kūfah, whose name was Qais bin 'Alqamah, came and he received him, and he started to revile (someone). Sa'eed said: 'Whom is this man reviling?' He said: 'He is reviling 'Alī.' He said: 'Why do I see the Companions of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ being reviled in your presence, and you do not object or try to stop it? I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say – and I have no need to attribute to him something that he did not say which he will ask me about tomorrow when I meet him – “Abū Bakr will be in Paradise, ‘Umar will be in Paradise,” – and he narrated a similar report (as no. 4650), then he said: ‘Their going out once (in Jihād) with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, getting their faces covered in dust, is better than the deeds done in a lifetime by one of you, even if he were to reach the age of Nūh.’” (Saḥīh)

4650 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى النَّخَعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي جَدِّي رِيَاحُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا عِنْدَ فُلَانٍ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْكُوفَةِ وَعِنْدَهُ أَهْلُ الْكُوفَةِ، فَجَاءَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ نُفَيْلٍ فَرَحَّبَ بِهِ وَحَيَّاهُ وَأَقْعَدَهُ عِنْدَ رِجْلِهِ عَلَى السَّرِيرِ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ، يُقَالُ لَهُ قَيْسُ بْنُ عَلْقَمَةَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُ فَسَبَّ وَسَبَّ، فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ: مَنْ يَسُبُّ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ؟ قَالَ: يَسُبُّ عَلِيًّا، قَالَ أَلَا أَرَى أَصْحَابَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُسَبُّونَ عِنْدَكَ ثُمَّ لَا تُنْكِرُ، وَلَا تُغَيِّرُ، أَنَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ وَإِنِّي لَغَنِيٌّ أَنْ أَقُولَ عَلَيْهِ مَا لَمْ يَقُلْ فَيَسْأَلَنِي عَنْهُ غَدًا إِذَا لَقِيتُهُ: «أَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، وَعُمَرُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ» وَسَاقَ مَعْنَاهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ: «لَمَشْهَدُ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَغْبَرُّ فِيهِ وَجْهُهُ، خَيْرٌ مِنْ عَمَلِ أَحَدِكُمْ عُمُرَهُ، وَلَوْ عُمِّرَ عُمُرَ نُوحٍ»
