عربی (اصل)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ وَابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمَعْنَى قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي الْفَيْضِ قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ فِي حَدِيثِهِ سَمِعْتُ سُلَيْمَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ يَقُولُ كَانَ بَيْنَ مُعَاوِيَةَ وَبَيْنَ الرُّومِ عَهْدٌ وَكَانَ يَسِيرُ نَحْوَ بِلَادِهِمْ حَتَّى يَنْقَضِيَ الْعَهْدُ فَيَغْزُوَهُمْ فَجَعَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى دَابَّةٍ يَقُولُ وَفَاءٌ لَا غَدْرٌ وَفَاءٌ لَا غَدْرٌ فَإِذَا هُوَ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبَسَةَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ كَانَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ قَوْمٍ عَهْدٌ فَلَا يَحِلَّ عُقْدَةً وَلَا يَشُدَّهَا حَتَّى يَمْضِيَ أَمَدُهَا أَوْ يَنْبِذَ إِلَيْهِمْ عَلَى سَوَاءٍ فَرَجَعَ مُعَاوِيَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ.
انگریزی ترجمہ
Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi and Ibn Ja'far told us — the meaning being the same — saying: Shu'bah told us, from Abu al-Fayd — Abd al-Rahman said in his hadith: I heard Sulaym ibn Amir say: There was a truce between Mu'awiyah and the Byzantines, and he used to march toward their lands until the truce expired, then raid them. A man on a mount made a habit of saying: "Faithfulness, not treachery! Faithfulness, not treachery!" And behold, it was Amr ibn Abasah. So I asked him about that, and he said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'Whoever has a covenant between himself and a people should neither loosen a knot of it nor tighten it until its term passes, or he renounces it to them on equal terms.'" So Mu'awiyah, may Allah be pleased with him, turned back.
