Hadith 2:253
Ibrahim ibn Khalid narrated to us, Rabah narrated to us, from Ma'mar, from al-Zuhri, from Ubayd Allah ibn Abd Allah ibn Utbah, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) passed away, and those who disbelieved disbelieved, Umar ibn al-Khattab said: "O Abu Bakr, how can you fight the people when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 'I have been commanded to fight the people until they say: "There is no god but Allah." Whoever says: "There is no god but Allah," his wealth and his life are protected from me, and his reckoning is with Allah the Almighty and Majestic'?" Abu Bakr said: "I will surely fight whoever differentiates between the prayer and the zakat, for the zakat is the right of wealth. By Allah, if they refused me a young she-goat that they used to pay to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), I would fight them for it." Umar said: "By Allah, it was nothing but that I saw that Allah had expanded the chest of Abu Bakr for the fighting, so I knew that it was the truth."
حدثنا إبراهيم بن خالد، حدثنا رباح، عن معمر، عن الزهري، عن عبيد الله بن عبد الله بن عتبة، عن أبي هريرة، قال: لما توفي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وكفر من كفر، قال: قال عمر بن الخطاب: يا أبا بكر، كيف تقاتل الناس وقد قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " أمرت أن أقاتل الناس حتى يقولوا: لا إله إلا الله، فمن قال: لا إله إلا الله، فقد عصم مني ماله ونفسه، وحسابه على الله عز وجل "؟ قال أبو بكر: لأقاتلن من فرق بين الصلاة والزكاة، إن الزكاة حق المال، والله لو منعوني عناقا كانوا يؤدونها إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لقاتلتهم عليها . فقال عمر: والله ما هو إلا أن رأيت أن الله قد شرح صدر أبي بكر بالقتال، فعرفت أنه الحق .
