Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #28765

Qutaibah told us, Al-Layth told us, on the authority of Uqail, on the authority of Al-Zuhri, Ubayd Allah bin Abdullah bin Utbah bin Masoud told me, on the authority of Abu Hurairah, he said: When the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, died and Abu Bakr was appointed as his successor after him, the Arabs who disbelieved became disbelievers, so Omar bin Al-Khattab by Abu Bakr: How do you fight people? The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “I have been commanded to fight people until they say there is no god but God, and whoever says no There is no god but God. He protects his wealth and his soul from me except according to his rights and his reckoning is with God.” Abu Bakr said, “By God.” I will fight whoever differentiates between zakat and prayer, for zakat is the right of money, and by God, if they withheld from me a camel, they would give it to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace. I would have fought them for preventing him. Then Omar ibn al-Khattab said, “By God, it is not the case unless I saw that God had opened my father’s chest.” Bakr to fight, so I knew that it was the truth. Abu Issa said: This is a hasan and authentic hadith, and this is how Shuaib bin Abi Hamza narrated on the authority of Al-Zuhri. On the authority of Ubayd Allah ibn Abdullah, on the authority of Abu Hurairah. Imran al-Qattan narrated this hadith, on the authority of Muammar, on the authority of al-Zuhri, on the authority of Anas ibn Malik On the authority of Abu Bakr, but it is an incorrect hadith, and Imran was contradicted in his narration on the authority of Muammar.
