Sunan Ibn Majah 2863
It was
narrated from Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) sent ‘Alqamah bin Mujazziz at the head of a detachment, and I
was among them. When he reached the battle site, or when he was
partway there, a group of the army asked permission to take a
different route, and he gave them permission, and appointed ‘Abdullah
bin Hudhafah bin Qais As-Sahmi as their leader, and I was one of
those
who fought alongside with him. When we were partway there, the
people
lit a fire to warm themselves and cook some food. ‘Abdullah,
who was a
man who liked to joke, said:
“Do I not have the right
that you should
listen to me and obey?” They said: “Yes.” He
said: “And if I command
you to do something, will you not do it?”
They said: “Of course.” He
said: “Then I command you to jump
into this fire.” Some people got up
and got ready to jump, and when
he saw that they were about to jump,
he said: “Restrain yourselves,
for I was joking with you.” When we
came to Al-Madinah, they
mentioned that to the Prophet (ﷺ), and the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said: “Whoever among you commands you to do
something that involves
disobedience to Allah, do not obey him.”
