ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ عَلَى الْمَرْءِ اسْتِعْمَالَ مَا يَقُولُ الْأُمَرَاءُ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَتَرْكَ أَفْعَالِهِمْ إِذَا خَالَفُوهُمْ

[Machine] I have one of the two in this world and everything in it; one from the Najashi and the other from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . As for what I heard from the Najashi, we were with him when his son, who was from the People of the Book, came to him and presented his tablet. I understood some of their conversation, then there was a verse that made me laugh, so he asked me, "What made you laugh?" By the One in whose hand is my soul, a revelation from the One on the Throne would have been sent if Jesus, son of Mary, had said: "The curse is on the earth when the rule belongs to children." And what I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , I heard him saying, "Listen to what Quraysh says and leave their actions."  

أَنْ لِي بِوَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُمَا الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا إِحْدَاهُمَا مِنَ النَّجَاشِيِّ وَالْأُخْرَى مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَمَّا الَّتِي سَمِعْتُهَا مِنَ النَّجَاشِيِّ فَإِنَّا كُنَّا عِنْدَهُ إِذْ جَاءَهُ ابْنٌ لَهُ مِنَ الْكُتَّابِ فَعَرَضَ لَوْحَهُ قَالَ وَكُنْتُ أَفْهَمُ بَعْضَ كَلَامِهِمْ فَمَرَّ بِآيَةٍ فَضَحِكْتُ فَقَالَ مَا الَّذِي أَضْحَكَكَ؟ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأُنْزِلَتْ مِنْ عِنْدَ ذِي الْعَرْشِ إِنَّ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّعْنَةَ تَكُونُ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِذَا كَانَتْ إِمَارَةُ الصِّبْيَانِ وَالَّذِي سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ «اسْمَعُوا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَدَعُوا فِعْلَهُمْ»
