in Islam and never associated anything with Allah.” They mentioned other possibilities. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) then came out to them and asked, “What are you discussing?” They told him, and he said, “They are those who neither administer ruqyah nor ask for it, do not take omens, and place their trust in their Lord.” Ukkāshah ibn Mihsan stood and said, “Ask Allah to make me one of them.” He replied, “You are one of them.” Another man then stood and said, “Ask Allah to make me one of them.” He replied, “Ukkāshah has preceded you to it.” (1)

The Hadith of Imrān ibn Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him).

Imām al-Bukhārī said: Imrān ibn Maysarah narrated to us: Ibn Fudayl narrated to us: Husayn narrated to us, from Āmir, from Imrān ibn Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them both), who said, “There is no ruqyah except against the evil eye or a venomous sting.” I mentioned this to Sa‘īd ibn Jubayr, and he said: Ibn Abbās narrated to us that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “The nations were presented before me. One or two prophets would pass by with a small band, while another prophet would have no one with him. Then a vast multitude was brought into view before me. I asked, ‘What is this? Is this my nation?’ I was told, ‘This is Moses and his people.’ I was then told, ‘Look toward the horizon,’ and there was a multitude filling the horizon. Then I was told, ‘Look this way and that, toward the horizons of the sky,’ and there was a multitude filling the horizon. I was told, ‘This is your nation, and seventy thousand of them will enter Paradise without reckoning.’” He then went inside without explaining who they were. The people began discussing the matter and said, “We are the ones who believed in Allah and followed His Messenger, so we must be they—or perhaps they are our children, who were born in Islam, whereas we were born in the Age of Ignorance.” When this reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he came out and said, “They are those who do not ask others for ruqyah, do not take omens, do not seek cauterization, and place their trust in their Lord.” Then Ukkāshah ibn Mihsan said,

(1) Authentic: Recorded by Muslim, hadith no. 220, and Ahmad (2444), from Hushaym through the same chain. Hushaym ibn Bashīr ibn al-Qāsim was the most reliable transmitter from Husayn, as Abd al-Rahmān ibn Mahdī stated, according to al-Mizzī’s Tahdhīb al-Kamāl. Abū Dāwūd reported that Ahmad ibn Hanbal said, “No one transmitted hadith from Husayn more accurately than Hushaym.” Muhammad ibn Sad said, “He was trustworthy, prolific in hadith, and reliable, but frequently practiced tadlīs (concealing an intermediary in the chain). Any report in which he says, ‘He informed us,’ is authoritative; if he does not say, ‘He informed us,’ it is of no value.” End quote. I say: Here he explicitly stated direct transmission. The report is therefore more likely mawqūf (attributed only to the Companion) for three reasons. First, the mawqūf narration is recorded in Sahih Muslim. Second, Hushaym was the most reliable transmitter from Husayn. Third, al-Rāzī had a poor memory, and his report cannot be used as evidence where it conflicts with this narration.

في الإسلام ولم يشركوا بالله وذكروا أشياء فخرج عليهم رسول الله ﷺ، فقال: ما الذي تخوضون فيه فأخبروه، فقال هم الذين لا يرقون ولا يسترقون ولا يتطيرون وعلى ربهم يتوكلون فقام عكاشة بن محصن، فقال ادع الله أن يجعلني منهم، فقال أنت منهم ثم قام رجل آخر، فقال ادع الله أن يجعلني منهم، فقال سبقك بها عكاشة. (١) * حديث عمران بن حصين ﵁. قال الإمام البخارى حدثنا عمران بن ميسرة حدثنا ابن فضيل حدثنا حصين عن عامر عن عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ رضى الله تعالى عنهما قال لاَ رُقْيَةَ إِلاَّ مِنْ عَيْنٍ أَوْ حُمَةٍ فذكرته لسعيد بن جبير، فقال: حدثنا ابن عباس قال رسول الله ﷺ: عرضت علي الأمم فجعل النبي والنبيان يمرون معهم الرهط والنبي ليس معه أحد حتى رفع لي سواد عظيم قلت: ما هذا أمتي هذه قيل هذا موسى وقومه قيل انظر إلى الأفق فإذا سواد يملأ الأفق ثم قيل لي انظر ها هنا وها هنا في آفاق السماء فإذا سواد قد ملأ الأفق قيل هذه أمتك ويدخل الجنة من هؤلاء سبعون ألف بغير حساب ثم دخل ولم يبين لهم فأفاض القوم وقالوا نحن الذين آمنا بالله واتبعنا رسوله فنحن هم أو أولادنا الذين ولدوا في الإسلام فإنا ولدنا في الجاهلية فبلغ النبي ﷺ فخرج، فقال هم الذين لا يسترقون ولا يتطيرون ولا يكتوون وعلى ربهم يتوكلون، فقال عكاشة بن محصن

(١) صحيح: أخرجه مسلم ح رقم (٢٢٠) وأحمد (٢٤٤٤) عن هشيم. به .. وهشيم بن بشير بن القاسم هو أثبت الناس فى حصين كما قال عبد الرحمن بن مهدى. كما فى "تهذيب الكمال" للمزى. وقال أبو داود: قال أحمد بن حنبل: ليس أحد أصح حديثا عن حصين من هشيم .. وقال محمد بن سعد: كان ثقة، كثير الحديث، ثبتا، يدلس كثيرا، فما قال فى حديثه أخبرنا فهو حجة، وما لم يقل فيه أخبرنا فليس بشئ. اهـ أقول: وهو هنا صرح بالتحديث .. فيترجح كونه موقوفا من وجوه. الأول: أن الرواية الموقوفة فى الصحيح. والثانى: أن هشيم أثبت الناس فى حصين. والثالث: أن الرازى سئ الحفظ لا يحتج بما خالف فيه.
