حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا الْحِمَّانِيُّ يَعْنِی عَبْدَ الْحَمِيدِ ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَی وَبُرَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَی قَالَ قَدِمَ عَلَيَّ مُعَاذٌ وَأَنَا بِالْيَمَنِ وَرَجُلٌ کَانَ يَهُودِيًّا فَأَسْلَمَ فَارْتَدَّ عَنْ الْإِسْلَامِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ مُعَاذٌ قَالَ لَا أَنْزِلُ عَنْ دَابَّتِي حَتَّی يُقْتَلَ فَقُتِلَ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا وَکَانَ قَدْ اسْتُتِيبَ قَبْلَ ذَلِکَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4355
Narrated Muadh ibn Jabal: Abu Musa said: Muadh came to me when I was in the Yemen. A man who was Jew embraced Islam and then retreated from Islam. When Muadh came, he said: I will not come down from my mount until he is killed. He was then killed. One of them said: He was asked to repent before that.
