أحمد:٥٦٧٢حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ عَنْ بَرَكَةَ بْنِ يَعْلَى التَّيْمِيِّ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سُوَيْدٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ قَالَ أَتَيْنَا ابْنَ عُمَرَ فَجَلَسْنَا بِبَابِهِ لِيُؤْذَنَ لَنَا قَالَ فَأَبْطَأَ عَلَيْنَا الْإِذْنُ قَالَ

فَقُمْتُ إِلَى جُحْرٍ فِي الْبَابِ فَجَعَلْتُ أَطَّلِعُ فِيهِ فَفَطِنَ بِي فَلَمَّا أَذِنَ لَنَا جَلَسْنَا فَقَالَ أَيُّكُمُ اطَّلَعَ آنِفًا فِي دَارِي قَالَ قُلْتُ أَنَا قَالَ بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ اسْتَحْلَلْتَ أَنْ تَطَّلِعَ فِي دَارِي؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ أَبْطَأَ عَلَيْنَا الْإِذْنُ فَنَظَرْتُ فَلَمْ أَتَعَمَّدْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ سَأَلُوهُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ بُنِيَ الْإِسْلَامُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَحَجِّ الْبَيْتِ وَصِيَامِ رَمَضَانَ قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَا تَقُولُ فِي الْجِهَادِ؟ قَالَ مَنْ جَاهَدَ فَإِنَّمَا يُجَاهِدُ لِنَفْسِهِ
