ذِكْرُ شَهَادَةِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ لِأَهْلِ عُمَانَ بِالسَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ لَهُ

ibnhibban:7310Aḥmad b. ʿAlī b. al-Muthanná > Hudbah b. Khālid al-Qaysī > Mahdī b. Maymūn > Abū al-Wāziʿ Jābir b. ʿAmr > Abū Barzah al-Aslamī

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a man to a tribe among the Arab tribes for something that I don't know what he said. They insulted him and beat him, so he returned to the Prophet ﷺ and complained to him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "But if my messenger had gone to the people of Oman, they would not have insulted him or beaten him."  

ابن حبّان:٧٣١٠أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْقَيْسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَازِعِ جَابِرُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ قَالَ

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجُلًا إِلَى حَيٍّ مِنْ أَحْيَاءِ الْعَرَبِ فِي شَيْءٍ لَا أَدْرِي مَا قَالَ فَسَبُّوهُ وَضَرَبُوهُ فَرَجَعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَشَكَا إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ «لَكِنْ أَهْلُ عُمَانَ لَوْ أَتَاهُمْ رَسُولِي مَا سَبُّوهُ وَلَا ضَرَبُوهُ»

[Machine] I heard Abu Barzah say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a man to a neighborhood of the Arab tribes, and they hit him and insulted him. So he returned to the Prophet ﷺ and complained to him about it. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "If you had come to the people of Oman, they would neither have hit you nor insulted you."
