Chapter 1: Refraining from harming one who says: La Ilaha Illallah - كتاب الفتن
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، وَحَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ فَإِذَا قَالُوهَا عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهَا وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " .
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
“I have been commanded to fight the people until they say: La
ilaha illallah. If they say it, then their blood and wealth are
protected from me, except for a right that is due from it, and their
reckoning will be with Allah.”

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ فَإِذَا قَالُوا لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهَا وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ " .
It was narrated from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
“I
have been commanded to fight the people until they say: La ilaha
illallah. If they say: La ilaha illallah, then their blood and wealth
are protected from me, except for a right that is due from it, and
their reckoning will be with Allah.”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ السَّهْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ أَبِي صَغِيرَةَ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ، أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ أَوْسٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ أَوْسًا أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ إِنَّا لَقُعُودٌ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ وَهُوَ يَقُصُّ عَلَيْنَا وَيُذَكِّرُنَا إِذْ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَسَارَّهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَاقْتُلُوهُ " . فَلَمَّا وَلَّى الرَّجُلُ دَعَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَقَالَ " هَلْ تَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ " . قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ " اذْهَبُوا فَخَلُّوا سَبِيلَهُ فَإِنَّمَا أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ حَرُمَ عَلَىَّ دِمَاؤُهُمْ وَأَمْوَالُهُمْ " .
‘Amr bin Aws narrated that his father, Aws, told him:
“We were
sitting with the Prophet (ﷺ) and he was narrating to us and
reminding us, when a man came and spoke privately to him. He said:
‘Take him away and kill him.’ When the man turned away, the
Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) called him back and said: ‘Do you bear
witness that
none has the right to be worshiped but Allah?’ He
said, ‘Yes.’ He
said: ‘Then go and let him go, for I have been
commanded to fight the
people until they say: La ilaha illallah, then
if they do that, their
blood and wealth are forbidden to me.’”

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنِ السُّمَيْطِ بْنِ السُّمَيْرِ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ، قَالَ أَتَى نَافِعُ بْنُ الأَزْرَقِ وَأَصْحَابُهُ فَقَالُوا هَلَكْتَ يَا عِمْرَانُ . قَالَ مَا هَلَكْتُ . قَالُوا بَلَى . قَالَ مَا الَّذِي أَهْلَكَنِي قَالُوا قَالَ اللَّهُ {وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّى لاَ تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ وَيَكُونَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ} . قَالَ قَدْ قَاتَلْنَاهُمْ حَتَّى نَفَيْنَاهُمْ فَكَانَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ حَدَّثْتُكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ . قَالُوا وَأَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ . قَالَ نَعَمْ شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ وَقَدْ بَعَثَ جَيْشًا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَلَمَّا لَقُوهُمْ قَاتَلُوهُمْ قِتَالاً شَدِيدًا فَمَنَحُوهُمْ أَكْتَافَهُمْ فَحَمَلَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ لُحْمَتِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِالرُّمْحِ فَلَمَّا غَشِيَهُ قَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ إِنِّي مُسْلِمٌ فَطَعَنَهُ فَقَتَلَهُ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلَكْتُ قَالَ " وَمَا الَّذِي صَنَعْتَ " . مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِالَّذِي صَنَعَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " فَهَلاَّ شَقَقْتَ عَنْ بَطْنِهِ فَعَلِمْتَ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ " . قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ شَقَقْتُ بَطْنَهُ أَكُنْتُ أَعْلَمُ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ قَالَ " فَلاَ أَنْتَ قَبِلْتَ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ وَلاَ أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ " . قَالَ فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ إِلاَّ يَسِيرًا حَتَّى مَاتَ فَدَفَنَّاهُ فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْضِ فَقَالُوا لَعَلَّ عَدُوًّا نَبَشَهُ فَدَفَنَّاهُ ثُمَّ أَمَرْنَا غِلْمَانَنَا يَحْرُسُونَهُ فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْضِ فَقُلْنَا لَعَلَّ الْغِلْمَانَ نَعَسُوا فَدَفَنَّاهُ ثُمَّ حَرَسْنَاهُ بِأَنْفُسِنَا فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْضِ فَأَلْقَيْنَاهُ فِي بَعْضِ تِلْكَ الشِّعَابِ .
It was narrated from Sumait bin Sumair, that ‘Imran bin Husain
said:
“Nafi’ bin Azraq and his companions came and said: ‘You
are doomed, O ‘Imran!’ He (‘Imran) said: ‘I am not doomed.’
They said: ‘Yes you are.’ I said: ‘Why am I doomed?’ They
said: ‘Allah says: “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah
(disbelief and polytheism, i.e., worshipping others besides Allah),
and the religion (worship) will be all for Allah Alone.”[8:39] He
said: ‘We fought them until they were defeated and the religion was
all for Allah Alone. If you wish, I will tell you a Hadith that I
heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ They said: ‘Did you
(really) hear it from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’ He said: ‘Yes.
I was with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he had sent an army of
the Muslims to the idolaters. When they met them they fought them
fiercely, and they (the idolaters) gave them their shoulders (i.e.,
turned and fled). A man among my kin attacked an idolator man with a
spear, and when he was defeated he said: “I bear witness that none
has the right to be worshipped but Allah, I am a Muslim.” But he
stabbed him and killed him. He came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
and said: “O Messenger of Allah, I am doomed.” He said “What is
it that you have done?” one or two times. He told him what he had
done and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: “Why didn’t
you cut open his belly and find out what was in his heart?” He
said: “O Messenger of Allah, I wish I had cut open his belly and
could have known what was in his heart.” He said: “You did not
accept what he said, and you could not have known what was in his
heart!” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remained silent concerning him
(that man), and a short while later he died. We buried him, but the
following morning he was on the surface of the earth. They said:
“Perhaps an enemy of his disinterred him.” So we buried him
(again) and told our slaves to stand guard. But the following morning
he was on the surface of the earth again then we said: ‘Perhaps the
slaves dozed off.’ So we buried him (again) and stood guard
ourselves, but the following morning he was on the surface of the
earth (again). So we threw him into one of these mountain passes.’”
“The Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)
said, during the Farewell Pilgrimage: ‘Is not the most sacred
of your
days this day, is not the most sacred of your months this
month, is
not the most sacred of your lands this land? Your blood and
your
wealth are as sacred to you as this day of yours in this month
of
yours. Have I not conveyed (the message)?’ They said: ‘Yes.”
He said:
‘O Allah, bear witness.’”
“I saw the
Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) circumambulating the Ka’bah and saying:
‘How good you are
and how good your fragrance; how great you are
and how great your
sanctity. By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of
Muhammad, the
sanctity of the believer is greater before Allah than
your sanctity,
his blood and his wealth, and to think anything but
good of him.’”
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
“The adulterer, at the time he is committing adultery, is not
a
believer; (the wine drinker) at the time he is drinking, is not a
believer; the thief, at the time he is stealing, is not a believer;
the plunderer, at the time he is plundering with the people looking
on, is not a believer.”
Chapter 3: The prohibition of plunder - كتاب الفتن
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، قَالَ أَصَبْنَا غَنَمًا لِلْعَدُوِّ فَانْتَهَبْنَاهَا فَنَصَبْنَا قُدُورَنَا فَمَرَّ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ بِالْقُدُورِ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَأُكْفِئَتْ ثُمَّ قَالَ
" إِنَّ النُّهْبَةَ لاَ تَحِلُّ " .
It was narrated that Tha’labah bin Hakam said:
“We came across
some
of the enemy’s sheep and plundered them, and set up our
cooking pots.
The Prophet (ﷺ) passed by the pots and ordered that
they be
overturned, then he said: ‘Plunder is not permissible.’”
Chapter 5: Do not turn back into disbelievers after I am gone, striking one another's necks - كتاب الفتن
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ، عَنِ الصُّنَابِحِ الأَحْمَسِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" أَلاَ إِنِّي فَرَطُكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ وَإِنِّي مُكَاثِرٌ بِكُمُ الأُمَمَ فَلاَ تَقْتَتِلُنَّ بَعْدِي " .
It was narrated from Sunabih Al-Ahmasi that the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) said:
“I shall reach the Cistern (Haud) before you, and I
will
boast of your great numbers before the nations, so do not fight
one
another after I am gone.’”
It was narrated from Abu Bakr Siddiq that the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) said:
“Whoever offers the morning prayer, he is under the
protection of Allah, so do not betray Allah by betraying those who
are
under His protection. Whoever kills him, Allah will seek him out
until
He throws him on his face into Hell.”
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ الْيُحْمِدِيُّ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ الشَّامِيِّ، عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ، مِنْهُمْ يُقَالَ لَهَا فُسَيْلَةُ قَالَتْ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ، سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَمِنَ الْعَصَبِيَّةِ أَنْ يُحِبَّ الرَّجُلُ قَوْمَهُ قَالَ
" لاَ وَلَكِنْ مِنَ الْعَصَبِيَّةِ أَنْ يُعِينَ الرَّجُلُ قَوْمَهُ عَلَى الظُّلْمِ " .
‘Abbad bin Kathir Ash-Shami narrated from a woman among them, called
Fasilah, that she heard her father say:
“I asked the Prophet (ﷺ):
‘O
Messenger of Allah, is it tribalism if a man loves his people?’
He
said: ‘No, rather tribalism is when a man helps his people to do
wrong.’”
“The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) prayed one day, and made the prayer lengthy. When he
finished we
said (or they said): ‘O Messenger of Allah, you made
the prayer
lengthy today.’ He said: ‘I offered a prayer of hope
and fear. I asked
Allah for three things for my nation, and He
granted me two and
refused one. I asked Him not to let my nation be
destroyed by enemies
from without, and He granted me that. And I
asked Him not to let them
be destroyed by drowning, and He granted me
that. And I asked Him not
to let them be destroyed by fighting among
themselves, but He refused
that.’”
