حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِيِّ قَالَ آخَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ فَقُتِلَ أَحَدُهُمَا وَمَاتَ الْآخَرُ بَعْدَهُ فَصَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا قُلْتُمْ قَالُوا دَعَوْنَا لَهُ اللَّهُمَّ أَلْحِقْهُ بِصَاحِبِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَيْنَ صَلَاتُهُ بَعْدَ صَلَاتِهِ وَأَيْنَ صَوْمُهُ بَعْدَ صَوْمِهِ وَأَيْنَ عَمَلُهُ بَعْدَ عَمَلِهِ شَكَّ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَالْعَمَلِ شُعْبَةُ فِي أَحَدِهِمَا الَّذِي بَيْنَهُمَا كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ مَيْمُونٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ السُّلَمِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ آخَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us: Shu'bah narrated to us, from Amr ibn Murrah, from Amr ibn Maymun, from Abdullah ibn Rabi'ah, from Ubayd ibn Khalid al-Sulami, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, made a bond of brotherhood between two men; one of them was killed, and the other died after him, and we prayed the funeral prayer over him. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: 'What did you say?' They said: 'We prayed for him: "O Allah, join him with his companion."' The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: 'Then where is his prayer compared to his companion's prayer, and where is his fasting compared to his fasting, and where is his deed compared to his deed?' — he was uncertain about prayer and deed, Shu'bah was uncertain about one of them — 'the difference between them is like the difference between heaven and earth.' Abu al-Nadr narrated to us: Shu'bah narrated to us, from Amr ibn Murrah, who said: I heard Amr ibn Maymun narrate, from Abdullah ibn Rabi'ah al-Sulami, from Ubayd ibn Khalid, who was one of the Companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, made a bond of brotherhood between two men, and he related the account.
