أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَائِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ قَالَ تَغَيَّظَ أَبُو بَکْرٍ عَلَی رَجُلٍ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هُوَ يَا خَلِيفَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالَ لِمَ قُلْتُ لِأَضْرِبَ عُنْقَهُ إِنْ أَمَرْتَنِي بِذَلِکَ قَالَ أَفَکُنْتَ فَاعِلًا قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَأَذْهَبَ عِظَمُ کَلِمَتِيَ الَّتِي قُلْتُ غَضَبَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا کَانَ لِأَحَدٍ بَعْدَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4087
It v ilarrated that Ahu Barzah ‘said: “Abu Bakr got infuriated with a man, and I said: ‘Who is he, O' Khalifah of the Messengcr of Allah?’ He said: ‘Why?’ I said: ‘So that I might strike his neck (killing him) if you tell me to.’ He said: ‘Would you really do that?’ I said: ‘Yes, By Allah,’ the seriousness of what I said took away his anger. Then he said: ‘That is not for anyone after Muhammad صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم.“ (Hasan)
