حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مِسْکِينٍ الْيَمَامِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ حَسَّانَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنْ قُشَيْرِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ بَجَالَةَ بْنِ عَبْدَةَ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ جَائَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْأَسْبَذِيِّينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَحْرَيْنِ وَهُمْ مَجُوسُ أَهْلِ هَجَرَ إِلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَکَثَ عِنْدَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ مَا قَضَی اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ فِيکُمْ قَالَ شَرٌّ قُلْتُ مَهْ قَالَ الْإِسْلَامُ أَوْ الْقَتْلُ قَالَ وَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ قَبِلَ مِنْهُمْ الْجِزْيَةَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَأَخَذَ النَّاسُ بِقَوْلِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ وَتَرَکُوا مَا سَمِعْتُ أَنَا مِنْ الْأَسْبَذِيِّ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3044
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: A man belonging to Usbadhiyin of the people of Bahrayn, who were the Magians of Hajar, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and remained with him (for some time), and then came out. I asked him: What have Allah and His Messenger of Allah decided for you? He replied: Evil. I said: Silent. He said: Islam or killing. Abdur Rahman ibn Awf said: He accepted jizyah from them. Ibn Abbas said: The people followed the statement of Abdur Rahman ibn Awf, and they left that which I heard from the Usbadhi.
