Sahih Muslim: Book 44, Hadith 52
سُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ ” لأُعْطِيَنَّ
هَذِهِ الرَّايَةَ رَجُلاً يُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ يَفْتَحُ اللَّهُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ ” . قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ مَا أَحْبَبْتُ
الإِمَارَةَ إِلاَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ – قَالَ – فَتَسَاوَرْتُ لَهَا رَجَاءَ أَنْ أُدْعَى لَهَا – قَالَ – فَدَعَا رَسُولُ
اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهَا وَقَالَ ” امْشِ وَلاَ تَلْتَفِتْ حَتَّى
يَفْتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ ” . قَالَ فَسَارَ عَلِيٌّ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ وَقَفَ وَلَمْ يَلْتَفِتْ فَصَرَخَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَلَى
مَاذَا أُقَاتِلُ النَّاسَ قَالَ ” قَاتِلْهُمْ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ مَنَعُوا مِنْكَ دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهَا وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ ” .
