کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

To you, you have seen me fighting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in this place, the polytheists. Go, may Allah bless you.

By Allah, I did not kill or command, but I was victorious

Do not strike his neck, and if the prince orders you, do not obey him, for you will be the one whose neck is struck

Narrated Ibn `Abbas:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Beware! Do not renegade as (disbelievers) after me by striking (cutting) the necks of one another

People became disbelievers after you. This is Ibn al-Zubayr and the people of the Levant are killing each other

Fuck you all today

I do not like that I shot Othman with an arrow, wanting to kill him, nor that I had as much gold as Uhud

No people stirred up sedition except that they were its islands

Baqiyya ibn al-Walid told us, on the authority of al-Ahwas, on the authority of Abu Aoun, on the authority of Sa`id ibn al-Musayyab, who said that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him) said: “Whoever helps in killing a Muslim with half a word will come on the Day of Resurrection with it written between his eyes: He is hopeless of Allah’s mercy.”

The example of people in strife is like a people who were on a journey and darkness enveloped them, so some of them rose up and some of them behaved arrogantly, and they became evacuated and they strayed from the path.

Shall I not inform you of the cure for strife? Indeed, Allah does not permit during it anything that He had prohibited before. So what about one of you asking permission to go to his brother’s door, then the next day comes and kills him?

Ibn Abi Adi told us, on the authority of Ibn Aoun, on the authority of Muhammad, he said: When they gathered at the door of Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), he was told: If you go out with your battalion, perhaps if they see it they will return? He said: Then Othman went out with his battalion. He said: A man of those would draw, and a man of these would draw. So they were disturbed by their swords, and Uthman began to notice, so he said: “Are they fighting against me and my leadership?” So he returned and entered the house, and I do not know what he left after that until he was killed. Muhammad said: The strife occurred when it broke out, and the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ numbered ten thousand or more, and if they had been given permission, they would have beaten them until they expelled them from the lands. Medina, Muhammad said: Ibn al-Zubayr, Ibn Umar, and al-Hasan ibn Ali came to him. Ibn Aoun said, and Nafi’ said: Ibn Umar wore armor twice, and I was informed that Abu Hurairah used to go around the house and say: “Um, good or good.”

Abu al-Mughirah told us, on the authority of Safwan, on the authority of Abd al-Rahman bin Jubair, that Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said on the day he was besieged: “Why do they make it permissible to kill me? Killing is only permissible for three: one who disbelieves after faith, adultery after chastity, or kills a soul for other than a soul.

By Allah, people will be killed in Othman who are today in the loins of their fathers who have not yet been born

When Cain killed his brother Abel, Allah distorted his mind and deprived him of his heart, so he remained lost until he died.

No, they did not pray, they did not pray

You will see things that you deny, so be patient and do not change and do not say we will change until Allah Almighty is the changer.

Fear the Sultan by fearing him, for the Sultan’s term is only one day remaining, and on that day the man and his family will perish. Removing an upright mountain is easier than removing a postponed king.

Baqiyya ibn al-Walid and Issa ibn Yunus told us, on the authority of al-Ahwas ibn Hakim, on the authority of Abu Aoun al-Ansari, on the authority of Sa`id ibn al-Musayyab, who said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him) said: “Whoever helps in the killing of a Muslim with half a word will come on the Day of Resurrection written between his eyes: He has despaired of Allah’s mercy.” Except that Jesus added a man.

No, by Allah, we do not know of Ali’s involvement in killing Othman secretly or publicly, but he was a leader and the people were terrified of him, so he was appointed to command, and he was subjected to what he had not done.

By Allah, if you overtake me and you, I do not know for you or me a way out of it according to what our Prophet (may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him) covenanted with us, unless we leave it as we entered it.

There is no way out for you or me if we have reached it except to leave it as we entered it. This is how our Prophet, ﷺ, entrusted us.

Narrated Abu Huraira:Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "There will be afflictions (in the near future) during which a sitting person will be better than a standing one, and the standing one will be better than a walking one, and the walking one will be better than a running one, and whoever will expose himself to these afflictions, they will destroy him. So whoever can find a place of protection or refuge from them, should take shelter in it

There will be tribulations, so stay on the ground, and let one of you guard his house, for no one will be exposed to it unless you want him to.

There will come a time when a man will have to choose between impotence and immorality. Whoever realizes this should choose impotence over immorality
