Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعَثَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ حُذَافَةَ يَطُوفُ فِي مِنًى أَنْ لَا تَصُومُوا هَذِهِ الْأَيَّامَ فَإِنَّهَا أَيَّامُ أَكْلٍ وَشُرْبٍ وَذِكْرِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ
English Translation
Rawh narrated to us, Salih narrated to us, Ibn Shihab narrated to us, from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه), that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Abdullah ibn Hudhafah to lead a detachment. He became angry and said to his men: 'Has not the Prophet ﷺ commanded you to obey me?' They said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Gather firewood and light a fire.' Then he said: 'Enter it.' They looked at each other and said: 'We only fled to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from the Fire.' When his anger subsided, the Prophet ﷺ was informed. He said: 'Had they entered it, they would never have come out. Obedience is only in what is right.'
