[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ with a donation of our camels, so he commanded her to be taken and I said, "Indeed, in it are two camels as a gift for you." So the gift was separated from the donation. Then he stayed for a few days and people started spreading rumors that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Khalid bin Al-Walid to Egypt, or he said, "Egypt." Abu Ghassan had doubts about their truthfulness, so he believed them. So, I said, "By Allah, we have neither wealth nor donation from our people here." Then I went to the Prophet ﷺ while he was on his camel and with him was Aswad, whose head was next to the head of the Prophet ﷺ . I did not see anyone taller than him among the people. When I approached, it seemed as if he inclined towards me, so the Prophet ﷺ restrained him with his hand. I said, "Indeed, people have spread rumors about such and such." The Prophet ﷺ raised his hand until I could see the whiteness of his armpits and said, "O Allah, I do not permit them to lie against me." Al-Munqia said, "I did not narrate from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ except a hadith that a book or a sunnah spoke of, and it was lied about during his lifetime, so what about after his death?"
أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِصَدَقَةِ إِبِلِنَا فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَقُبِضَتْ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ فِيهَا نَاقَتَيْنِ هَدِيَّةً لَكَ فَعُزِلَتِ الْهَدِيَّةُ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ فَمَكَثَ أَيَّامًا وَخَاضَ النَّاسُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بَاعِثٌ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ إِلَى رَقِيقِ مِصْرَ أَوْ قَالَ مِصْرَ شَكَّ أَبُو غَسَّانَ فَيُصْدِقُهُمْ فَقُلْتُ وَاللهِ إِنَّ لَنَا وَمَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِنَا مِنْ مَالٍ وَلَا صَدَقَتَهُمْ هَهُنَا فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَلَى نَاقَةٍ لَهُ وَمَعَهُ أَسْوَدٌ قَدْ حَاذَى رَأْسُهُ رَأْسَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا مِنَ النَّاسِ أَطْوَلَ مِنْهُ فَلَمَّا دَنَوْتُ كَأَنَّهُ أَهْوَى إِلَيَّ فَكَفَّهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ خَاضُوا فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا فَرَفَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَدَهُ حَتَّى نَظَرْتُ إِلَى بَيَاضِ إِبْطَيْهِ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ لَا أُحِلُّ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَكْذِبُوا عَلَيَّ» قَالَ الْمُنْقَعُ «فَلَمْ أُحَدِّثْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَّا حَدِيثًا نَطَقَ بِهِ كِتَابٌ أَوْ جَرَتْ بِهِ سُنَّةٌ يُكْذَبُ عَلَيْهِ فِي حَيَاتِهِ فَكَيْفَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهِ؟»
