حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلَاقَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَرِيرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ مَاتَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ قَامَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَی عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ عَلَيْکُمْ بِاتِّقَائِ اللَّهِ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيکَ لَهُ وَالْوَقَارِ وَالسَّکِينَةِ حَتَّی يَأْتِيَکُمْ أَمِيرٌ فَإِنَّمَا يَأْتِيکُمْ الْآنَ ثُمَّ قَالَ اسْتَعْفُوا لِأَمِيرِکُمْ فَإِنَّهُ کَانَ يُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنِّي أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُلْتُ أُبَايِعُکَ عَلَی الْإِسْلَامِ فَشَرَطَ عَلَيَّ وَالنُّصْحِ لِکُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ فَبَايَعْتُهُ عَلَی هَذَا وَرَبِّ هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ إِنِّي لَنَاصِحٌ لَکُمْ ثُمَّ اسْتَغْفَرَ وَنَزَلَ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 58
Narrated Ziyad bin'Ilaqa: I heard Jarir bin 'Abdullah (Praising Allah). On the day when Al-Mughira bin Shu'ba died, he (Jarir) got up (on the pulpit) and thanked and praised Allah and said, "Be afraid of Allah alone Who has none along with Him to be worshipped.(You should) be calm and quiet till the (new) chief comes to you and he will come to you soon. Ask Allah's forgiveness for your (late) chief because he himself loved to forgive others." Jarir added, "Amma badu (now then), I went to the Prophet and said, 'I give my pledge of allegiance to you for Islam." The Prophet conditioned (my pledge) for me to be sincere and true to every Muslim so I gave my pledge to him for this. By the Lord of this mosque! I am sincere and true to you (Muslims). Then Jarir asked for Allah's forgiveness and came down (from the pulpit).
