From the Musnad of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (RA)
من مسند أبي سعيد الخدري
Hadith 42:376
Zuhayr narrated to us, Yazid bin Harun narrated to us, Muhammad bin ‘Amr informed us, from ‘Umar bin al-Hakam bin Thawban, that Abu Sa’id al-Khudri said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent ‘Alqamah bin Mujazziz on an expedition, and I was among them. We set out until, when we were at the end of our expedition or on some part of the road, a group sought his permission, and he granted it to them. He appointed ‘Abdullah bin Hudhafah over them, and he was one of the companions of Badr, and he had a playful nature. I was among those who returned with him. While we were on some part of the road, we stopped at a place, and the people lit a fire to warm themselves or to prepare some food for themselves. Then ‘Abdullah said to them, "Do I not have the right of hearing and obedience over you?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Will you not do anything I command you to do?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Then I command you, by my right and my obedience, to leap into this fire." Some people stood up and tightened their garments. When he thought they were about to leap into it, he said, "Hold yourselves back, for I was only joking with you." When they arrived at the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ), they mentioned that to him. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Whoever among them commands you to commit an act of disobedience, do not obey him."
حدثنا زهير حدثنا يزيد بن هارون أخبرنا محمد بن عمرو عن عمر بن الحكم بن ثوبان أن أبا سعيد الخدري قال * بعث رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم علقمة بن مجزز على بعث أنا فيهم فخرجنا حتى إذا كنا على رأس غزاتنا أو في بعض الطريق فاستأذنه طائفة فأذن لهم وأمر عليهم عبد الله بن حذافة وكان من أصحاب بدر وكانت فيه دعابة فكنت فيمن رجع معه فبينما نحن في بعض الطريق فنزلنا منزلا وأوقد القوم نارا يصطلون بها أو يصنعون عليها صنيعا لهم إذ قال لهم عبد الله أليس لي عليكم السمع والطاعة قالوا بلى قال فما أنا بآمركم من شيء إلا فعلتموه قالوا بلى قال فإني أعزم عليكم بحقي وطاعتي إلا تواثبتم في هذه النار قال فقام ناس فتحجزوا حتى إذا ظن أنهم واثبون فيها قال أمسكوا عليكم أنفسكم وإنما كنت أضحك معكم فلما قدموا على نبي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ذكروا ذلك له فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم من أمركم منهم بمعصية فلا تطيعوه
