48. Virtues of the Companions
٤٨۔ كِتَابُ الْمَنَاقِبِ
[Machine] And they have indeed done it. I bear witness that the nine of them are in Paradise, and if I had testified regarding the tenth, I would have spoken the truth. We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at Hira', and it started moving. He said, "Stay steady, O Hira', for nothing but a Prophet, a truthful person, or a martyr would be upon you." I asked, "Who was on Hira'?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Myself, Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, Ali, Talha, Zubair, Abdul-Rahman ibn Auf, and Saad." We asked, "Who was the tenth?" He said, "Myself." It was narrated to us by Ishaq ibn Ibrahim, who narrated from Ibn Idrees, who said: I heard Husayn narrating with this chain of narration. Hilal ibn Yasaf did not hear it from Abdullah ibn Dhilham. Ishaq ibn Ibrahim narrated to us, who said: Ubeid ibn Sa'id narrated to us, who said: Sufyan narrated to us from Mansur, from Hilal ibn Yasaf, from Ibn Hayyan, from Abdullah ibn Dhilham, who said: Hira' moved, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, and he mentioned it similarly.
أَوَقَدْ فَعَلُوهَا أَشْهَدُ عَلَى التِّسْعَةِ أَنَّهُمْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَلَوْ شَهِدْتُ عَلَى الْعَاشِرِ لَصَدَقْتُ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى حِرَاءٍ فَتَحَرَّكَ فَقَالَ «اثْبُتْ حِرَاءُ فَمَا عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا نَبِيٌّ أَوْ صِدِّيقٌ أَوْ شَهِيدٌ» قُلْتُ وَمَنْ كَانَ عَلَى حِرَاءٍ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعُثْمَانُ وَعَلِيٌّ وَطَلْحَةُ وَالزُّبَيْرُ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ وَسَعْدٌ قُلْنَا «فَمَنِ الْعَاشِرُ؟» قَالَ «أَنَا» [327] 8135 أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ حُصَيْنًا يُحَدِّثُ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ هِلَالُ بْنُ يَسَافٍ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهُ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ ظَالِمٍ 8136 أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ عَنِ ابْنِ حَيَّانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ ظَالِمٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ قَالَ تَحَرَّكَ حِرَاءُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ
[Machine] I bear witness that I testify for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with what my ears have heard and my heart has preserved, and I have never lied about him. Whenever someone asked me about him when I met him, he would say, "Abu Bakr is in Paradise, Umar is in Paradise, Ali is in Paradise, Uthman is in Paradise, Talha is in Paradise, Zubayr is in Paradise, Abdur-Rahman ibn Awf is in Paradise, and Sa'd ibn Malik is in Paradise." And if I wanted to name the ninth, I would have named myself. The residents of the mosque would call out to him, "O companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , who is the ninth?" He would respond, "You call upon me by Allah the Almighty, I am the ninth of the believers, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is the tenth."
أَشْهَدُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَا سَمِعَتْهُ أُذُنَايَ وَوَعَاهُ قَلْبِي وَإِنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ لِأَرْوِيَ عَلَيْهِ كَذِبًا يَسْأَلُنِي عَنْهُ إِذَا لَقِيتُهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ «أَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَعُمَرُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَعَلِيٌّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَعُثْمَانُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَطَلْحَةُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَالزُّبَيْرُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَسَعْدُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ» وَتَاسِعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ أُسَمِّيَهُ لَسَمَّيْتُهُ فَرَجَّ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ يُنَاشِدُونَهُ يَا صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَنِ التَّاسِعُ؟ قَالَ «نَاشَدْتُمُونِي بِاللهِ الْعَظِيمِ أَنَا تَاسِعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْعَاشِرُ»
