باب فِتْنَةِ الْمَالِ
Sunan Ibn Majah 3997
It was narrated from ‘Amr bin ‘Awf, who was an ally of Banu ‘Amir
bin
Lu’ai and was present at (the battle of) Badr with the
Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ), that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent
‘Ubaidah bin
Jarrah to Bahrain to collect the Jizyah, and the
Prophet (ﷺ) had
made a treaty with the people of Bahrain, and he
appointed as their
governor ‘Ala’ bin Hadrami. Abu ‘Ubaidan
came with the wealth from
Bahrain and the Ansar heard that Abu
‘Ubaidah had come, so they
attended the Fajr prayer with the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). When the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had
prayed, he went away, so they intercepted
him. The Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) smiled when he saw them, then he
said:
‘I think you have
heard that Abu ‘Ubaidah has brought something
from Bahrain?’ They
said: ‘Yes, O Messenger of Allah.’ He said: ‘Be of
good cheer
and hope for that which will make you happy. By Allah, I do
not fear
poverty for you, rather I fear that you will enjoy ease and
plenty
like those who came before you, and that you will compete with
one
another as they did, and you will be destroyed as they were.’”
