Chain of Narration (Isnad)

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلَاقَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَرِيرًا يَقُولُ

Body (Matn)

حِينَ مَاتَ الْمُغِيرَةُ وَاسْتَعْمَلَ قَرَابَتَهُ يَخْطُبُ فَقَامَ جَرِيرٌ فَقَالَ أُوصِيكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَنْ تَسْمَعُوا وَتُطِيعُوا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَكُمْ أَمِيرٌ اسْتَغْفِرُوا لِلْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يُحِبُّ الْعَافِيَةَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنِّي أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُبَايِعُهُ بِيَدِي هَذِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ فَاشْتَرَطَ عَلَيَّ النُّصْحَ فَوَرَبِّ هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ إِنِّي لَكُمْ لَنَاصِحٌ

English Translation

Jarīr said — when al-Mughīrah (ibn Shuʿbah) died and his relative was appointed — he stood up giving a sermon. Jarīr said: 'I counsel you to fear Allah alone, with no partner, and to hear and obey until a (new) leader comes to you.' Then Jarīr said, 'Seek forgiveness for al-Mughīrah ibn Shuʿbah, may Allah تعالى forgive him, for he used to love pardoning.' He continued, 'As for what follows: I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to pledge allegiance to him with this hand upon Islam, and he stipulated sincerity upon me. By the Lord of this mosque, I am indeed sincere to all of you.'
