٣٤۔ كِتَابُ الْفَرَائِضِ
[Machine] "He was the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , if I were to take a close friend, I would have taken Abu Bakr, as he made him his father through lineage."
لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُهُ خَلِيلًا يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ جَعَلَ الْجَدَّ أَبًا

لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ خَلِيلًا جَعَلَ الْجَدَّ أَبًا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were to take anyone as a close friend, I would have taken Abu Bakr as my close friend."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوِ أَتَّخِذُ أَحَدًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُهُ فَإِنَّهُ أَنْزَلَهُ أَبًا يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ
أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ جَعَلَ الْجَدَّ أَبًا
[Machine] Uthman bin Affan, if we follow your opinion, it is indeed the right path. And if we follow the opinion of the sheikh before you, then he was indeed a person of good judgment.
عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ ؓ إِنْ نَتَّبِعْ رَأْيَكَ فَإِنَّهُ رُشْدٌ وَإِنْ نَتَّبِعْ رَأْيَ الشَّيْخِ قَبْلَكَ فَنِعْمَ ذُو الرَّأْيِ كَانَ
[Machine] "This is narrated by Hushaim from Khaled, from Abu al-Mutawakkil al-Naji, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, that Abu Bakr used to treat his grandfather as a father."
ثنا هُشَيْمٌ ح وَأنا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ أنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى أنا هُشَيْمٌ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْمُتَوَكِّلِ النَّاجِي عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ؓ أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ كَانَ يُنْزِلُ الْجَدَّ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْأَبِ
[Machine] That among the people, there are ancestors who said "Exalted is the Majesty of our Lord" [Surah Al-Jinn: 3], and Sufyan recited "O children of Adam" [Surah Al-A'raf: 26], and "And I have followed the religion of my fathers" [Surah Yusuf: 38].
أَنَّ فِيَ النَّاسِ جُدُودًا مَا قَالُوا {تَعَالَى جَدُّ رَبِّنَا} [الجن 3] وَقَرَأَ سُفْيَانُ {يَا بَنِي آدَمَ} [الأعراف 26] {وَاتَّبَعْتُ مِلَّةَ آبَائِي} [يوسف 38]
[Machine] Is not your grandfather's grandfather older than you? So the man remained silent and did not answer him, as if he did not hear his response. So I said, "I am Adam." He said, "Do you not listen to the word of God, O son of Adam?"
إِنَّهُ لَا جَدَّ أِيُّ أَبٍ لَكَ أَكْبَرُ؟ فَسَكَتَ الرَّجُلُ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ وَكَأَنَّهُ عَيِيَ عَنْ جَوَابِهِ فَقُلْتُ أَنَا آدَمُ قَالَ أَفَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَى قَولِ اللهِ يَا بَنِي آدَمَ
[Machine] The payment (diyah) is for those who receive inheritance, and the grandfather is the father.
الدِّيَةُ لِمَنْ أَحْرَزَ الْمِيرَاثَ وَالْجَدُّ أَبٌ
[Machine] Ali used to treat his grandfather as a father, which was criticized by some people in Iraq. The authentic saying about Ali is that he used to equate between his grandfather and his brothers, and perhaps he considered him a father in another sense. Allah knows best.
أَنَّ عَلِيًّا ؓ كَانَ يَجْعَلُ الْجَدَّ أَبًا فَأَنْكَرَ قَوْلَ عَطَاءٍ ذَلِكَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ الصَّحِيحُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُشْرِكُ بَيْنَ الْجَدِّ وَالْإِخْوَةِ وَلَعَلَّهُ جَعَلَهُ أَبًا فِي حُكْمٍ آخَرَ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ
