Ḥadīth | Ṭabarānī (الطبراني) tabarani:8334 حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى الصَّنْعَانِيُّ ثنا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ ثنا أَشْعَثُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَمَلَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاصِ نَاسًا فِي الْبَحْرِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ «حَمَلَ نَاسًا لَيْسَ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْمَاءِ إِلَّا الْأَلْوَاحَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَئِنْ هَلَكُوا أَوْ كَلِمَةٌ نَحْوَهَا لَآخُذَنَّ عِدَّتَهُمْ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ»
English Translation
Al-Hasan narrated: Uthman ibn Abi al-As transported people by sea, and when Umar heard about it, he said: 'He transported people with nothing between them and the water except planks! By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if they perish — or a word like it — I will take their equivalent from Thaqif.'
