4373. Narrated Ibn 'Abbas رضي الله عنهما Musailima Al-Kadhdhāb came during the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ and started saying, "If Muḥammad gives me the rule after him, I will follow him." And he came (to Al-Madina) with a great number of the people of his tribe. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ went to him in the company of Thābit bin Qais bin Shammās, and at that time, Allāh's Messenger ﷺ had a stick of a date-palm tree branch in his hand. When he (the Prophet ﷺ) stopped near Musailima while the latter was amidst his companions, he said to him, "If you ask me for this piece (of stick), I will not give it to you, and Allāh's Order you cannot avoid, (but you will be destroyed), and if you turn your back from this religion (Islām), then Allāh will destroy you. And I think you are the same person who was shown to me in my dream, and this is Thābit bin Qais who will answer your questions on my behalf." Then the Prophet ﷺ went away from him.

4373 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو اليَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي حُسَيْنٍ، حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: قَدِمَ مُسَيْلِمَةُ الكَذَّابُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ: إِنْ جَعَلَ لِي مُحَمَّدٌ الأَمْرَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ تَبِعْتُهُ، وَقَدِمَهَا فِي بَشَرٍ كَثِيرٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، فَأَقْبَلَ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَهُ ثَابِتُ بْنُ قَيْسِ بْنِ شَمَّاسٍ، وَفِي يَدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قِطْعَةُ جَرِيدٍ، حَتَّى وَقَفَ عَلَى مُسَيْلِمَةَ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ، فَقَالَ: «لَوْ سَأَلْتَنِي هَذِهِ القِطْعَةَ مَا أَعْطَيْتُكَهَا، وَلَنْ تَعْدُوَ أَمْرَ اللَّهِ فِيكَ، وَلَئِنْ أَدْبَرْتَ لَيَعْقِرَنَّكَ اللَّهُ، وَإِنِّي لَأَرَاكَ الَّذِي أُرِيتُ فِيهِ، مَا رَأَيْتُ، وَهَذَا ثَابِتٌ يُجِيبُكَ عَنِّي» ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ عَنْهُ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّكَ أُرَى الَّذِي أُرِيتُ فِيهِ مَا أَرَيْتُ»، فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ، رَأَيْتُ فِي يَدَيَّ سِوَارَيْنِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَأَهَمَّنِي شَأْنُهُمَا، فَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ فِي المَنَامِ: أَنِ انْفُخْهُمَا، فَنَفَخْتُهُمَا فَطَارَا، فَأَوَّلْتُهُمَا كَذَّابَيْنِ يَخْرُجَانِ بَعْدِي " أَحَدُهُمَا العَنْسِيُّ، وَالآخَرُ مُسَيْلِمَةُ
