Sunan Ibn Majah 3930
It was narrated from Sumait bin Sumair, that ‘Imran bin Husain
said:
“Nafi’ bin Azraq and his companions came and said: ‘You
are doomed, O ‘Imran!’ He (‘Imran) said: ‘I am not doomed.’
They said: ‘Yes you are.’ I said: ‘Why am I doomed?’ They
said: ‘Allah says: “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah
(disbelief and polytheism, i.e., worshipping others besides Allah),
and the religion (worship) will be all for Allah Alone.”[8:39] He
said: ‘We fought them until they were defeated and the religion was
all for Allah Alone. If you wish, I will tell you a Hadith that I
heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ They said: ‘Did you
(really) hear it from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’ He said: ‘Yes.
I was with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he had sent an army of
the Muslims to the idolaters. When they met them they fought them
fiercely, and they (the idolaters) gave them their shoulders (i.e.,
turned and fled). A man among my kin attacked an idolator man with a
spear, and when he was defeated he said: “I bear witness that none
has the right to be worshipped but Allah, I am a Muslim.” But he
stabbed him and killed him. He came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
and said: “O Messenger of Allah, I am doomed.” He said “What is
it that you have done?” one or two times. He told him what he had
done and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: “Why didn’t
you cut open his belly and find out what was in his heart?” He
said: “O Messenger of Allah, I wish I had cut open his belly and
could have known what was in his heart.” He said: “You did not
accept what he said, and you could not have known what was in his
heart!” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remained silent concerning him
(that man), and a short while later he died. We buried him, but the
following morning he was on the surface of the earth. They said:
“Perhaps an enemy of his disinterred him.” So we buried him
(again) and told our slaves to stand guard. But the following morning
he was on the surface of the earth again then we said: ‘Perhaps the
slaves dozed off.’ So we buried him (again) and stood guard
ourselves, but the following morning he was on the surface of the
earth (again). So we threw him into one of these mountain passes.’”
