حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ قَالَ خَاصَمَ الزُّبَيْرَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا زُبَيْرُ اسْقِ ثُمَّ أَرْسِلْ فَقَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ إِنَّهُ ابْنُ عَمَّتِکَ فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام اسْقِ يَا زُبَيْرُ ثُمَّ يَبْلُغُ الْمَائُ الْجَدْرَ ثُمَّ أَمْسِکْ فَقَالَ الزُّبَيْرُ فَأَحْسِبُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ نَزَلَتْ فِي ذَلِکَ فَلَا وَرَبِّکَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّی يُحَکِّمُوکَ فِيمَا شَجَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 2361
Narrated `Urwa: When a man from the Ansar quarreled with Az-Zubair, the Prophet said, "O Zubair! Irrigate (your land) first and then let the water flow (to the land of the others)." "On that the Ansari said, (to the Prophet), "It is because he is your aunt's son." On that the Prophet said, "O Zubair! Irrigate till the water reaches the walls between the pits around the trees and then stop (i.e. let the water go to the other's land)." I think the following verse was revealed concerning this event: "But no, by your Lord They can have No faith Until they make you judge In all disputes between them." (4.65)
