3976. It was narrated that Abû Hurairah said: “The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: ‘I have been commanded to fight the people until they say Lâ ilâha illallâh. If they say it then their blood and their wealth are safe from me, except for a right that is due, and their reckoning will be with Allâh.’ When the people apostatized, ‘Umar said to Abû Bakr: ‘Will you fight them when you heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say such and such?’ He said: ‘By Allâh, I do not separate Salâh and Zakâh, and I will fight whoever separates them.’ So we fought alongside him, and we realized that that was the right thing.” (Sahîh) Abû ‘Abdur-Rahmân (An-Nasâ’î) said: Sufyân is not strong in (his narrations from) Az-Zuhrî, and he is Sufyân bin Ḥusain.

3971 - أَخْبَرَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، فَإِذَا قَالُوهَا فَقَدْ عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ، إِلَّا بِحَقِّهَا وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ " فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الرِّدَّةُ، قَالَ عُمَرُ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ: أَتُقَاتِلُهُمْ وَقَدْ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: كَذَا، وَكَذَا، فَقَالَ: وَاللَّهِ لَا أُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ الصَّلَاةِ، وَالزَّكَاةِ، وَلَأُقَاتِلَنَّ مَنْ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا، فَقَاتَلْنَا مَعَهُ فَرَأَيْنَا ذَلِكَ رُشْدًا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: «سُفْيَانُ فِي الزُّهْرِيِّ لَيْسَ بِالْقَوِيِّ وَهُوَ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ»
