[4633] 94 - (1785) It was narrated that Abû Wâ’il said: Sahl bin Ḥunayf stood up on the day of (the battle of) Siffin and said: O people, blame yourselves, for we were with the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ on the Day of Al-Ḥudaibiyah, and if we had seen fit to fight, we would have fought. That was in reference to the truce that was made between the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and the idolaters. 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭâb came and approached the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, and said: O Messenger of Allâh, are we not following truth whilst they are following falsehood? He said: "Of course." He said: Are not our slain in Paradise whilst their slain are in Hell? He said: "Of course." He said: Then why should we accept a deal that is detrimental to the interests of our religion and go back when Allâh has not decided the issue between us and them? He said: "O son of Al-Khaṭṭâb, I am the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and Allâh will never forsake me." 'Umar went away, but he could not bear his feelings of anger. He went to Abû Bakr and said: O Abû Bakr, are we not following truth whilst they are following falsehood? He said: Of course. He said: Are not our slain in Paradise whilst their slain are in Hell? He said: Of course. He said: Then why should we accept a deal that is detrimental to the interests of our religion and go back when Allâh has not decided the issue between us and them? He said: O son of Al-Khaṭṭâb, he is the Messenger of Allâh and Allâh will never forsake him. Then Qur'ân was revealed to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, speaking of victory, and he (ﷺ) sent for 'Umar and recited it to him. He said: O Messenger of Allâh, is it really a victory? He said: "Yes." Then he ('Umar) felt relieved and he went back.

94 - (1785) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، وَتَقَارَبَا فِي اللَّفْظِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ سِيَاهٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَبِيبُ بْنُ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، قَالَ: قَامَ سَهْلُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ يَوْمَ صِفِّينَ، فَقَالَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، اتَّهِمُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ، لَقَدْ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَلَوْ نَرَى قِتَالًا لَقَاتَلْنَا، وَذَلِكَ فِي الصُّلْحِ الَّذِي كَانَ بَيْنَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبَيْنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، فَجَاءَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَلَسْنَا عَلَى حَقٍّ وَهُمْ عَلَى بَاطِلٍ؟ قَالَ: «بَلَى»، قَالَ: أَلَيْسَ قَتْلَانَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَقَتْلَاهُمْ فِي النَّارِ؟ قَالَ: «بَلَى»، قَالَ: فَفِيمَ نُعْطِي الدَّنِيَّةَ فِي دِينِنَا، وَنَرْجِعُ، وَلَمَّا يَحْكُمِ اللهُ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُمْ، فَقَالَ: «يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ وَلَنْ يُضَيِّعَنِي اللهُ أَبَدًا»، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقَ عُمَرُ فَلَمْ يَصْبِرْ مُتَغَيِّظًا، فَأَتَى أَبَا بَكْرٍ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَلَسْنَا عَلَى حَقٍّ وَهُمْ عَلَى بَاطِلٍ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى، قَالَ: أَلَيْسَ قَتْلَانَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَقَتْلَاهُمْ فِي النَّارِ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى، قَالَ: فَعَلَامَ نُعْطِي الدَّنِيَّةَ فِي دِينِنَا، وَنَرْجِعُ وَلَمَّا يَحْكُمِ اللهُ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُمْ؟ فَقَالَ: يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، إِنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ وَلَنْ يُضَيِّعَهُ اللهُ أَبَدًا، قَالَ: فَنَزَلَ الْقُرْآنُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْفَتْحِ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى عُمَرَ، فَأَقْرَأَهُ إِيَّاهُ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَوْ فَتْحٌ هُو؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ»، فَطَابَتْ نَفْسُهُ وَرَجَعَ
