[6582] 62 - (2584) It was narrated that Jâbir said: “Two young men got into a fight, one from among the Muhâjirîn and one from among the Anşâr. The Muhâjir or the Muhâjirîn called out: ‘O Muhâjirîn!’ And the Anşârî called out: ‘O Anşâr!’ The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ came out and said: ‘What is this call of the people of Jâhiliyyah?’ They said: No, O Messenger of Allâh. It is just two young men who got into a fight, when one of them hit the other from behind.' He said: 'It does not matter. Let a man support his brother whether he is doing wrong or being wronged. If he is doing wrong, let him stop him, then he will be supporting him. And if he is being wronged, let him help him.'"

Arabic text

62 - (2584) حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: اقْتَتَلَ غُلَامَانِ غُلَامٌ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ، وَغُلَامٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، فَنَادَى الْمُهَاجِرُ أَوِ الْمُهَاجِرُونَ، يَا لَلْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَنَادَى الْأَنْصَارِيُّ يَا لَلْأَنْصَارِ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا دَعْوَى أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ» قَالُوا: لَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِلَّا أَنَّ غُلَامَيْنِ اقْتَتَلَا فَكَسَعَ أَحَدُهُمَا الْآخَرَ، قَالَ: «فَلَا بَأْسَ وَلْيَنْصُرِ الرَّجُلُ أَخَاهُ ظَالِمًا أَوْ مَظْلُومًا، إِنْ كَانَ ظَالِمًا فَلْيَنْهَهُ، فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ نَصْرٌ وَإِنْ كَانَ مَظْلُومًا فَلْيَنْصُرْهُ»
