[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ sacrificed two salted lambs, and he said during the first one, "For Muhammad and the family of Muhammad." And he said during the second one, "For the one who believed in me and confirmed me from my nation."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ ضَحَّى بِكَبْشَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ فَقَالَ عِنْدَ الْأَوَّلِ «عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ» وَقَالَ عِنْدَ الثَّانِي «عَمَّنْ آمَنَ بِي وَصَدَّقَنِي مِنْ أُمَّتِي»  

[Machine] I heard Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Numair saying, "Zaid bin Thabit bin Dihak."  

سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ يَقُولُ «زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ»  

[Machine] "I was asking for this venomous creature that Allah writes good deeds for by killing it and erases bad deeds with it, and it is the lizard."  

«كُنْتُ أَطْلُبُ هَذِهِ الدَّابَّةَ الْخَبِيثَةَ الَّتِي يَكْتُبُ اللهُ بِقَتْلِهَا الْحَسَنَةَ وَيَمْحُو بِهَا السَّيِّئَةَ وَهِي الْوَزَغُ»  

[Machine] To Zaid ibn Thabit, O Abu Sa'id.  

لِزَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ يَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ  

[Machine] They said to Zaid bin Thabit, "O Abu Sa'id."  

قَالُوا لِزَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ يَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ  

[Machine] I heard Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Numayr say, "Zaid ibn Thabit is called Abu Sa'id."  

سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ يَقُولُ «زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ يُكْنَى أَبَا سَعِيدٍ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ arrived in Medina, and I was eleven years old.  

«قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وَأَنَا ابْنُ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً»  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ permitted me on the day of the trench and clothed me with a Qubtiyah garment."  

«أَجَازَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ وَكَسَانِي قُبْطِيَّةً»  

[Machine] Uthman asked, "Who among the people should I write?" They said, "Zaid ibn Thabit."  

عُثْمَانُ أَيَّ النَّاسِ أَكْتُبُ؟ فَقَالُوا زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ  

[Machine] "Uthman, may Allah have mercy on him, said: 'Please pray for me, Zaid ibn Thabit, the scribe of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .'"  

عُثْمَانُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ «ادْعُوا لِي زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ كَاتَبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ»  

[Machine] Ibn Abbas said, "This is how we treat the senior scholars."  

ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «هَكَذَا نَفْعَلُ بِالْعُلَمَاءِ الْكُبَرَاءِ»  

[Machine] The scholars after Mu'adh ibn Jabal, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, Abu Darda, Salman al-Farsi, and Abdullah ibn Salam were Zaid ibn Thabit. Then after Zaid were Ibn Umar and Ibn Abbas.  

«كَانَ الْعُلَمَاءُ بَعْدَ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَأَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ وَسَلْمَانُ وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ وَكَانَ الْعُلَمَاءُ بَعْدَ هَؤُلَاءِ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ ثُمَّ كَانَ بَعْدَ زَيْدٍ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ»  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ used to dictate letters to Abdullah bin Arqam, who would then write them to the kings. One time, Abdullah informed the Prophet ﷺ that he used to write letters to some kings, and then the Prophet ﷺ would instruct him to seal them without reading them, trusting his honesty. The Prophet ﷺ also dictated letters to Zaid bin Thabit, who would write down revelations and letters to the kings as well. In their absence, if there was a need to write to some commanders of armies or kings, they would write a letter that would be read and acted upon by anyone present. Omar bin Khattab, Uthman bin Affan, Ali bin Abi Talib, Zaid bin Thabit, Mugheerah bin Shu'bah, Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan, Khalid bin Saeed bin Al-Aas, and others from among the Arabs have all written letters on his behalf."  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ اسْتَكْتَبَ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ الْأَرْقَمِ فَكَانَ يَكْتُبُ إِلَى الْمُلُوكِ فَبَلَغَ مِنْ أَمَانَتِهِ عَنْدَهُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَكْتُبُ إِلَى بَعْضِ الْمُلُوكِ فَيَكْتُبُ ثُمَّ يَأْمُرُهُ أَنْ يُطَبِّقَهُ ثُمَّ يَخْتِمُ لَا يَقْرَأُهُ لِأَمانِتِهِ عَنْدَهُ واسْتَكْتَبَ أَيْضًا زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ فَكَانَ يَكْتُبُ الْوَحْيَ وَيَكْتُبُ إِلَى الْمُلُوكِ أَيْضًا وَكَانَ إِذَا غَابَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْأَرْقَمِ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ فَاحْتَاجَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ إِلَى بَعْضِ أُمَرَاءِ الْأَجْنَادِ وَالْمُلُوكِ وَيَكْتُبَ لِإِنْسَانٍ كِتَابًا يَقْطَعُهُ أَمَرَ مَنْ حَضَرَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ وَقَدْ كَتَبَ لَهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَالْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ وَمُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِّ ؓ وَغَيْرُهُمْ مِمَّنْ قَدْ سُمَيَّ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ»  

[Machine] Today, many knowledge has been buried.  

«لَقَدْ دُفِنَ الْيَوْمَ عَلْمٌ كَثِيرٌ»  

[Machine] "To make him a successor in Ibn Abbas."  

أَنْ يَجْعَلَ فِي ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ مِنْهُ خَلْفًا»  

[Machine] "To know how knowledge is vanishing, this is how knowledge is vanishing. By Allah! Much knowledge has disappeared today." Sa'id bin Musayyib said, "And the one who says much knowledge has gone with him, meaning Ibn Abbas."  

أَنْ يَعْلَمَ كَيْفَ ذَهَابُ الْعِلْمِ فَهَكَذَا ذَهَابُ الْعِلْمِ وَايْمُ اللهِ لَقَدْ ذَهَبَ الْيَوْمَ عِلْمٌ كَثِيرٌ» قَالَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ «وَالْقَائِلُ لَقَدْ ذَهَبَ بِهِ عِلْمٌ كَثِيرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ»  

[Machine] I heard Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Numayr say, "Zaid bin Thabit died in the year forty-five, and Kharijah bin Zaid bin Thabit died in the year ninety-nine."  

سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ يَقُولُ «مَاتَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ سَنَةَ خَمْسٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ وَمَاتَ خَارِجَةُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ سَنَةَ تِسْعٍ وَتِسْعِينَ»  

[Machine] Because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him permission on the day of Khandaq (the Battle of the Trench) when he was fifteen years old, and the Battle of the Trench took place in the month of Shawwal in the fourth year (after the migration to Medina), and there is disagreement regarding his death.  

لِأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَجَازَهُ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ وَهُوَ ابْنُ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ وَالْخَنْدَقُ فِي شَوَّالٍ سَنَةَ أَرْبَعَ وَقَدِ اخْتُلِفَ فِي وَفَاتِهِ  

[Machine] That Zaid ibn Thabit passed away in the year fifty-one.  

أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ تُوُفِّيَ سَنَةَ إِحْدَى وَخَمْسِينَ»
