2246. Abū Sa‘eed said: “I was accompanied by Ibn Ṣayyād – either performing Hajj or Umrah – the people departed, and he and I were left. When I was alone with him I trembled and felt frightened of him because of what the people were saying about him. When I halted I said to him: ‘Put your belongings near that tree.’” “He saw a sheep, took out a cup, and went to milk, it. Then he came to me with some milk and said to me: ‘Drink Abū Sa‘eed!’ But I loathed drinking anything from his hand because of what the people were saying about him. So I said to him: ‘It is very hot today, and I would not like to drink milk.’ So he said to me: ‘O Abū Sa‘eed, I think I should take a rope, tie it to the tree, then hang myself because of what the people are saying about me. You see those who may be unaware of some narrations, while you are not unaware of them. You people are the most knowledgeable among the people of the Aḥādīth of the Messenger of Allāh, O people obligation towards him. It is because if each one starts doing his duty, the rights of others will automatically be safeguarded. It is for this reason that Islam commands the rulers to fulfill their obligations and exhorts the subjects to fulfill theirs.

٢٢٤٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنِ ‌الْجُرَيْرِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: «صَحِبَنِي ابْنُ صَائِدٍ» إِمَّا حُجَّاجًا وَإِمَّا مُعْتَمِرِينَ، فَانْطَلَقَ النَّاسُ وَتُرِكْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ، فَلَمَّا خَلَصْتُ بِهِ اقْشَعْرَرْتُ مِنْهُ وَاسْتَوْحَشْتُ مِنْهُ مِمَّا يَقُولُ النَّاسُ فِيهِ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلْتُ قُلْتُ لَهُ: ضَعْ مَتَاعَكَ حَيْثُ تِلْكَ الشَّجَرَةِ، قَالَ: فَأَبْصَرَ غَنَمًا، فَأَخَذَ الْقَدَحَ فَانْطَلَقَ فَاسْتَحْلَبَ ثُمَّ أَتَانِي بِلَبَنٍ، فَقَالَ لِي: يَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ اشْرَبْ، فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَشْرَبَ مِنْ يَدِهِ شَيْئًا لِمَا يَقُولُ النَّاسُ فِيهِ: فَقُلْتُ لَهُ هَذَا الْيَوْمُ يَوْمٌ صَائِفٌ، وَإِنِّي أَكْرَهُ فِيهِ اللَّبَنَ، قَالَ لِي: يَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ آخُذَ حَبْلًا فَأُوثِقَهُ إِلَى شَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ أَخْتَنِقَ لِمَا يَقُولُ النَّاسُ لِي وَفِيَّ، أَرَأَيْتَ مَنْ خَفِيَ عَلَيْهِ حَدِيثِي، فَلَنْ يَخْفَى عَلَيْكُمْ، أَلَسْتُمْ أَعْلَمَ النَّاسِ بِحَدِيثِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ؟ أَلَمْ يَقُلْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِنَّهُ كَافِرٌ وَأَنَا مُسْلِمٌ؟ أَلَمْ يَقُلْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِنَّهُ عَقِيمٌ لَا يُولَدُ لَهُ وَقَدْ خَلَّفْتُ وَلَدِي بِالْمَدِينَةِ؟ أَلَمْ يَقُلْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَا تَحِلُّ لَهُ مَكَّةُ وَالْمَدِينَةُ؟ أَلَسْتُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَهُوَ ذَا أَنْطَلِقُ مَعَكَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ؟ فَوَاللهِ مَا زَالَ يَجِيءُ بِهَذَا حَتَّى قُلْتُ فَلَعَلَّهُ مَكْذُوبٌ عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ وَاللهِ لَأُخْبِرَنَّكَ خَبَرًا حَقًّا، وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَعْرِفُهُ وَأَعْرِفُ وَالِدَهُ، وَأَعْرِفُ أَيْنَ هُوَ السَّاعَةَ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، فَقُلْتُ تَبًّا لَكَ سَائِرَ الْيَوْمِ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ.
