حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ عَدِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو يَعْنِي الرَّقِّيَّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُنَيْسَةَ حَدَّثَنَا جَبَلَةُ بْنُ سُحَيْمٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْمُثَنَّى الْعَبْدِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ السَّدُوسِيَّ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْخَصَاصِيَّةِ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأُبَايِعَهُ قَالَ فَاشْتَرَطَ عَلَيَّ شَهَادَةَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَأَنْ أُقِيمَ الصَّلَاةَ وَأَنْ أُؤَدِّيَ الزَّكَاةَ وَأَنْ أَحُجَّ حَجَّةَ الْإِسْلَامِ وَأَنْ أَصُومَ شَهْرَ رَمَضَانَ وَأَنْ أُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَمَّا اثْنَتَانِ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا أُطِيقُهُمَا الْجِهَادُ وَالصَّدَقَةُ فَإِنَّهُمْ زَعَمُوا أَنَّهُ مَنْ وَلَّى الدُّبُرَ فَقَدْ بَاءَ بِغَضَبٍ مِنْ اللَّهِ فَأَخَافُ إِنْ حَضَرْتُ تِلْكَ جَشِعَتْ نَفْسِي وَكَرِهَتْ الْمَوْتَ وَالصَّدَقَةُ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا لِي إِلَّا غُنَيْمَةٌ وَعَشْرُ ذَوْدٍ هُنَّ رَسَلُ أَهْلِي وَحَمُولَتُهُمْ قَالَ فَقَبَضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ ثُمَّ حَرَّكَ يَدَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ فَلَا جِهَادَ وَلَا صَدَقَةَ فَلِمَ تَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ إِذًا قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَا أُبَايِعُكَ قَالَ فَبَايَعْتُ عَلَيْهِنَّ كُلِّهِنَّ.
English Translation
Zakariyya ibn Adi told us, Ubaydullah ibn Amr — namely al-Raqqi — told us, from Zayd ibn Abi Unaysah, Jabalah ibn Suhaym told us, from Abu al-Muthanna al-Abdi, who said: I heard al-Sadusi — namely Ibn al-Khasasiyyah — say: I came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, to give him my allegiance. He said: He stipulated for me the testimony that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, that I establish prayer, pay zakah, perform the pilgrimage of Islam, fast the month of Ramadan, and strive in the way of Allah. I said: O Messenger of Allah, as for two of these, by Allah I cannot bear them: jihad and charity. For they claim that whoever turns his back and flees has incurred the wrath of Allah, and I fear that if I am present my soul will become greedy for life and hate death. As for charity, by Allah I have nothing but a small flock and ten camels which are the milch-animals and pack-animals of my family. He said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, withdrew his hand, then moved his hand, then said: Then no jihad and no charity — so how will you enter Paradise? He said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, I will give you my allegiance. He said: So I gave him my allegiance on all of these conditions.
