Muhammad, do justice. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Woe be upon thee, who would do justice if I do not do justice, and you would be very unfortunate and a loser if I do not do justice. Upon this Umar b. Khattab (Allah be pleased with him) said: Permit me to kill this hypocrite. Upon this he (the Holy Prophet) said: May there be protection of Allah! People would say that I kill my companions. This man and his companions would recite the Qur'an but it would not go beyond their throat, and they swerve from it just as the arrow goes through the prey.  

أَتَى رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالْجِعْرَانَةِ مُنْصَرَفَهُ مِنْ حُنَيْنٍ وَفِي ثَوْبِ بِلاَلٍ فِضَّةٌ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقْبِضُ مِنْهَا يُعْطِي النَّاسَ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ اعْدِلْ قَالَ وَيْلَكَ وَمَنْ يَعْدِلُ إِذَا لَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْدِلُ لَقَدْ خِبْتَ وَخَسِرْتَ إِنْ لَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْدِلُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ دَعْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَأَقْتُلَ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقَ فَقَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَتَحَدَّثَ النَّاسُ أَنِّي أَقْتُلُ أَصْحَابِي إِنَّ هَذَا وَأَصْحَابَهُ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لاَ يُجَاوِزُ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنْهُ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ  

"The Messenger of Allah was in Ji'ranah and he was distributing gold nuggets and spoils of war which were in Bilal's lap. A man said: 'Do justice, O Muhammed!' He said: 'Woe to you! Who will do justice after me if I do not do justice?' 'Umar said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Let me strike the neck of this hypocrite!' The Messenger of Allah said: 'This man has some companions who recite the Qur'an but it does not go any deeper than their collarbones. They will pass through Islam like an arrow passing through its target.'"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالْجِعِرَّانَةِ وَهُوَ يَقْسِمُ التِّبْرَ وَالْغَنَائِمَ وَهُوَ فِي حِجْرِ بِلاَلٍ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ اعْدِلْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تَعْدِلْ فَقَالَ وَيْلَكَ وَمَنْ يَعْدِلُ بَعْدِي إِذَا لَمْ أَعْدِلْ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ دَعْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَتَّى أَضْرِبَ عُنُقَ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ هَذَا فِي أَصْحَابٍ أَوْ أُصَيْحَابٍ لَهُ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لاَ يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ  

[Machine] I came with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the year of Ji'ranah, and he was distributing silver in the garment of Bilal to the people. A man said, "O Messenger of Allah, be just!" He replied, "Woe to you! Who would be just if I am not just? Indeed, you would go astray if I am not just." 'Umar said, "O Messenger of Allah, let me kill this hypocrite!" He said, "May Allah protect me from people saying that I am killing my companions! Verily, he and his companions recite the Qur'an but it does not go beyond their throats or their hearts. They pass through the religion just as an arrow passes through its target."  

جِئْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَامَ الْجِعْرَانَةِ وَهُوَ يَقْسِمُ فِضَّةً فِي ثَوْبِ بِلَالٍ لِلنَّاسِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اعْدِلْ فَقَالَ وَيْلَكَ وَمَنْ يَعْدِلُ إِذَا لَمْ أَعْدِلْ لَقَدْ خِبْتَ إِنْ لَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْدِلُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ دَعْنِي أَقْتُلْ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقَ فَقَالَ مَعَاذَ اللهِ أَنْ يَتَحَدَّثَ النَّاسُ أَنِّي أَقْتُلُ أَصْحَابِي إِنَّ هَذَا وَأَصْحَابَهُ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ أَوْ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ مُرُوقَ السَّهْمِ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ  

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ distributed the spoils among the people using a big scale, a man from the tribe of Tamim stood up and said, "Be just, O Muhammad!" The Prophet replied, "Woe to you! Who could be just if I am not? Indeed, I would be a failure and a loser if I am not just." Umar then said, "O Messenger of Allah, shall I kill this hypocrite?" The Prophet replied, "May Allah forbid that the people say Muhammad kills his companions." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Indeed, this man and his companions recite the Quran, but it does not pass beyond their throats. They will leave the religion as an arrow passes through its prey." Mu'adh said, "Abu Zubayr narrated this hadith to me, and I presented it to Al-Zuhri, who did not object to it except that he said, 'The pot.' I asked, 'Are you not an Arab man?'"  

لَمَّا قَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ غَنَائِمَ هَوَازِنَ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ بِالْجِعْرَانَةِ قَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ فَقَالَ اعْدِلْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقَالَ وَيْلَكَ وَمَنْ يَعْدِلُ إِذَا لَمْ أَعْدِلْ لَقَدْ خِبْتُ وَخَسِرْتُ إِنْ لَمْ أَعْدِلْ قَالَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَا أَقُومُ فَأَقْتُلَ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقَ قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللهِ أَنْ تَتَسَامَعَ الْأُمَمُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا يَقْتُلُ أَصْحَابَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ هَذَا وَأَصْحَابًا لَهُ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ الْمِرْمَاةُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ قَالَ مُعَاذٌ فَقَالَ لِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ فَعَرَضْتُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَلَى الزُّهْرِيِّ فَمَا خَالَفَنِي إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ النَّضِيَّ؟ قُلْتُ الْقِدْحَ فَقَالَ أَلَسْتَ بِرَجُلٍ عَرَبِيٍّ؟  

[Machine] "Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to distribute to people in the clothing of Bilal on the day of Hunayn. He gave to them, and a man from the people said, 'Be fair, O Muhammad!' He ﷺ then said, 'Woe to you! If I am not fair, then who will be fair? I would have failed and lost if I am not fair.' Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, 'Let me, O Messenger of Allah, strike his neck.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I seek refuge in Allah from people spreading the rumor that I kill my companions. Indeed, this man and his companions are those who recite the Qur'an, and the Qur'an does not pass beyond their throats.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْبِضُ لِلنَّاسِ فِي ثَوْبِ بِلَالٍ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ يُعْطِيهِمْ فَقَالَ إِنْسَانٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ اعْدِلْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقَالَ ﷺ «وَيْلَكَ إِذَا لَمْ أَعْدِلْ فَمَنْ يَعْدِلُ لَقَدْ خِبْتُ وَخَسِرْتُ إِنْ لَمْ أَعْدِلْ» قَالَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ دَعْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَضْرِبُ عُنُقَهُ فَقَالَ ﷺ «مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَتَحَدَّثَ النَّاسُ أَنِّي أَقْتُلُ أَصْحَابِي إِنَّ هَذَا وَأَصْحَابًا لَهُ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ»  

[Machine] "My ears heard the Messenger of Allah wearing a Yemeni cloak with a silver border, and the Messenger of Allah was holding it, giving it to the people. A man said to him: 'O Messenger of Allah, be fair.' He said, 'Woe to you! Who will be just if I am not just? Indeed, you have fallen short and lost if I am not just.' Then 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said: 'Let me, O Messenger of Allah, kill this hypocrite.' The Messenger of Allah said: 'May Allah forbid that people should say that I kill my companions. Verily, he and his companions recite the Qur'an, but it does not go beyond their throats, like an arrow shot through the target.'"  

وَسَمِعَتْ أُذُنَاي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بِالْجِعْرَانَةِ وَفِي ثَوْبِ بِلَالٍ فِضَّةٌ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْبِضُهَا لِلنَّاسِ فَيُعْطِيهِمْ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اعْدِلْ قَالَ «وَيْلَكَ فَمَنْ يَعْدِلُ إِذَا لَمْ أَعْدَلْ؟ لَقَدْ خِبْتَ وَخَسِرْتَ إِنْ لَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْدَلُ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ دَعْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَلْأَقْتُلْ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَعَاذَ اللهِ أَنْ يَتَحَدَّثَ النَّاسُ أَنِّي أَقْتُلُ أَصْحَابِي إِنَّ هَذَا وَأَصْحَابَهُ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ حُلُوقَهُمْ أَوْ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ مُرُوقَ السَّهْمِ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ»
