724 - ( 3479 ) - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ زَنْجُوَيْهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا افْتَتَحَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَيْبَرَ ، قَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ عِلَاطٍ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّ لِي بِمَكَّةَ مَالًا ، وَإِنَّ لِي [6/195] بِهَا أَهْلًا ، وَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ آتِيَهُمْ ، فَأَنَا فِي حِلٍّ إِنْ أَنَا نِلْتُ مِنْكَ أَوْ قُلْتُ شَيْئًا ؟ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَقُولَ مَا شَاءَ ، قَالَ : فَأَتَى امْرَأَتَهُ حِينَ قَدِمَ ، فَقَالَ : اجْمَعِي مَا كَانَ عِنْدَكِ ، فَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَشْتَرِيَ مِنْ غَنَائِمِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَصْحَابِهِ ، فَإِنَّهُمْ قَدِ اسْتُبِيحُوا وَأُصِيبَتْ أَمْوَالُهُمْ ، قَالَ : وَفَشَا ذَلِكَ بِمَكَّةَ ، فَأَوْجَعَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، وَأَظْهَرَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ فَرَحًا وَسُرُورًا ، وَبَلَغَ الْخَبَرُ الْعَبَّاسَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، فَعَقِرَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ وَجَعَلَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَقُومَ . قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ : فَأَخْبَرَنِي الْجَزَرِيُّ ، عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ ، قَالَ : فَأَخَذَ الْعَبَّاسُ ابْنًا لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ : قُثَمُ ، وَكَانَ شَبَهَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَاسْتَلْقَى ، فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : قُثَمْ الْأَشَمْ قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ : قَالَ ثَابِتٌ : قَالَ أَنَسٌ : ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ غُلَامًا لَهُ إِلَى [6/196] الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ عِلَاطٍ ، فَقَالَ : وَيْلَكَ ، مَا جِئْتَ بِهِ ؟ وَمَاذَا تَقُولُ ؟ فَمَا وَعَدَ اللهُ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا جِئْتَ بِهِ ، قَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ لِغُلَامِهِ : أَقْرِئْ أَبَا الْفَضْلِ السَّلَامَ ، وَقُلْ لَهُ : فَلْيُخْلِ لِي بَعْضَ بُيُوتِهِ لِآتِيَهُ ، فَإِنَّ الْخَبَرَ عَلَى مَا يَسُرُّهُ ، فَجَاءَ غُلَامُهُ ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ الْبَابَ ، قَالَ : أَبْشِرْ أَبَا الْفَضْلِ ، فَوَثَبَ الْعَبَّاسُ فَرَحًا حَتَّى قَبَّلَ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِمَا قَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ فَأَعْتَقَهُ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ الْحَجَّاجُ فَأَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدِ افْتَتَحَ خَيْبَرَ وَغَنِمَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ ، وَجَرَتْ سِهَامُ اللهِ فِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ ، وَاصْطَفَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ حُيَيٍّ ، وَاتَّخَذَهَا لِنَفْسِهِ ، وَخَيَّرَهَا بَيْنَ أَنْ يُعْتِقَهَا فَتَكُونَ زَوْجَتَهُ ، وَبَيْنَ أَنْ تَلْحَقَ بِأَهْلِهَا ، فَاخْتَارَتْ أَنْ يُعْتِقَهَا وَتَكُونَ زَوْجَتَهُ ، وَلَكِنْ جِئْتُ لِمَا كَانَ لِي هَاهُنَا ، أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَجْمَعَهُ وَأَذْهَبَ بِهِ ، فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَذِنَ لِي أَنْ أَقُولَ مَا شِئْتُ ، فَاخْفِ عَلَيَّ ثَلَاثًا ، ثُمَّ اذْكُرْ مَا بَدَا لَكَ . قَالَ : فَجَمَعَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ مَا كَانَ عِنْدَهَا مِنْ حُلِيٍّ وَمَتَاعٍ فَجَمَعَتْهُ فَدَفَعَتْهُ إِلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَمَرَّ بِهِ ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ ، أَتَى الْعَبَّاسُ امْرَأَةَ الْحَجَّاجِ ، فَقَالَ : مَا فَعَلَ زَوْجُكِ ؟ فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ ذَهَبَ ، وَقَالَتْ : لَا يُحْزِنُكَ اللهُ يَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ ، لَقَدْ شَقَّ عَلَيْنَا الَّذِي بَلَغَكَ ، قَالَ : أَجَلْ ، لَا يُحْزِنُنِي اللهُ ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ بِحَمْدِ [6/197] اللهِ إِلَّا مَا أَحْبَبْنَاهُ ، قَدْ أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَجَّاجُ أَنَّ اللهَ فَتَحَ خَيْبَرَ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ، وَجَرَتْ فِيهَا سِهَامُ اللهِ ، وَاصْطَفَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَفِيَّةَ لِنَفْسِهِ ، فَإِنْ كَانَ لَكِ حَاجَةٌ فِي زَوْجِكِ فَالْحَقِي بِهِ ، قَالَتْ : أَظُنُّكَ وَاللهِ صَادِقًا ، قَالَ : فَإِنِّي صَادِقٌ ، وَالْأَمْرُ عَلَى مَا أَخْبَرْتُكِ . قَالَ : ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ حَتَّى أَتَى مَجَالِسَ قُرَيْشٍ ، وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ : لَا يُصِيبُكَ إِلَّا خَيْرٌ يَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ ، قَالَ : لَمْ يُصِبْنِي إِلَّا خَيْرٌ بِحَمْدِ اللهِ ، قَدْ أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَجَّاجُ أَنَّ خَيْبَرَ فَتَحَهَا اللهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ، وَجَرَتْ فِيهَا سِهَامُ اللهِ ، وَاصْطَفَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَفِيَّةَ لِنَفْسِهِ ، وَقَدْ سَأَلَنِي أَنْ أُخْفِيَ عَنْهُ ثَلَاثًا ، وَإِنَّمَا جَاءَ لِيَأْخُذَ مَا كَانَ لَهُ ثُمَّ يَذْهَبَ . قَالَ : فَرَدَّ اللهُ الْكَآبَةَ الَّتِي كَانَتْ بِالْمُسْلِمِينَ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ ، وَخَرَجَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مَنْ كَانَ دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ مُكْتَئِبًا حَتَّى أَتَوُا الْعَبَّاسَ ، وَرَدَّ اللهُ مَا كَانَ مِنْ كَآبَةٍ أَوْ غَيْظٍ أَوْ خِزْيٍ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ .

Abu Bakr ibn Zanjawayh narrated to us, 'Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us, Ma'mar informed us, from Thabit, from Anas, he said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) conquered Khaybar, al-Hajjaj ibn 'Ilat said: O Messenger of Allah, I have wealth in Makkah, and I have family there, and I wish to go to them, so am I free to speak against you or say anything? So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) permitted him to say what he wished. He said: So he went to his wife when he arrived and said: Gather what you have, for I wish to buy from the spoils of Muhammad and his companions, for they have been plundered and their wealth taken. He said: That spread in Makkah, grieving the Muslims, while the polytheists displayed joy and delight. The news reached al-'Abbas ibn 'Abd al-Muttalib, and he became crippled in his sitting place, unable to stand. Ma'mar said: al-Jazari informed me, from Miqsam, he said: al-'Abbas took a son of his called Qutham, who resembled the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him); he lay back and placed him upon his chest, saying: Qutham the handsome. Ma'mar said: Thabit said: Anas said: Then he sent a slave of his to al-Hajjaj ibn 'Ilat, saying: Woe to you, what have you brought? What are you saying? What Allah has promised is better than what you have brought. Al-Hajjaj said to his slave: Convey greetings to Abu al-Fadl, and tell him: Let him empty one of his houses for me to come to him, for the news is as will delight him. So his slave came, and when he reached the door he said: Glad tidings, Abu al-Fadl. So al-'Abbas leapt in joy until he kissed between his eyes, and he informed him of what al-Hajjaj said, so he freed him. Then al-Hajjaj came and informed him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) had conquered Khaybar, taken their wealth as spoils, Allah's shares were distributed in their wealth, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) chose Safiyyah bint Huyayy for himself, taking her for himself, giving her choice between freeing her so she would be his wife or rejoining her family, and she chose that he free her and she be his wife. But I came for what I had here; I wished to gather it and take it away, so I asked the Messenger of Allah's (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) permission and he permitted me to say what I wished, so conceal it from me for three days, then mention what you please. He said: So his wife gathered what she had of jewelry and goods, gathered it, and handed it to him, then he proceeded with it. When three days had passed, al-'Abbas went to al-Hajjaj's wife and said: What did your husband do? She informed him that he had gone, saying: May Allah not grieve you, Abu al-Fadl; what reached you grieved us. He said: Yes, may Allah not grieve me; by Allah's praise it was nothing but what we loved: al-Hajjaj informed me that Allah granted Khaybar to His Messenger, Allah's shares were distributed in it, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) chose Safiyyah for himself. If you need your husband, join him. She said: I think by Allah you are truthful. He said: I am truthful, and the affair is as I informed you. He said: Then he went to the gatherings of Quraysh, who were saying: Nothing befalls you but good, Abu al-Fadl. He said: Nothing befell me but good, by Allah's praise: al-Hajjaj informed me that Allah granted Khaybar to His Messenger, Allah's shares were distributed in it, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) chose Safiyyah for himself, and he asked me to conceal it from him for three days; he only came to take what was his and then leave. He said: So Allah turned the grief that was upon the Muslims onto the polytheists, and those Muslims who had entered their houses grieving came out until they came to al-'Abbas, and Allah returned whatever grief, rage, or disgrace there was onto the polytheists.
