Shahih Bukhari - 5231

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya bin Bukair] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Al Laits] dari ['Uqail] dari [Ibnu Syihab] dari ['Urwah] bahwa [Usamah bin Zaid] mengabarkan kepadanya bahwa Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam pernah mengendarai keledai milik beliau, diatasnya ada pelana bersulam beludru Fadaki, sementara Usamah bin Zaid membonceng di belakang beliau ketika hendak menjenguk Sa'ad bin 'Ubadah sebelum peristiwa Badar, lalu beliau berjalan dan sempat melintasi suatu majlis yang di majlis tersebut terdapat Abdullah bin Ubay bin Salul, kejadian itu sebelum Abdullah masuk Islam, dan dalam majlis tersebut terdapat pula beberapa orang kaum Muslimin yang bercampur baur dengan orang-orang musyrik, para penyembah patung, dan orang-orang Yahudi, terdapat pula Abdullah bin Rawahah, saat majlis itu dipenuhi kepulan debu keledai, 'Abdullah bin Ubai menutupi hidungnya dengan selendang sambil berkata: "Jangan mengepuli kami dengan debu, " kemudian Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam mengucapkan salam pada mereka lalu berhenti dan turun, setelah itu Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam mengajak mereka menuju Allah lalu beliau membacakan al-Qur'an kepada mereka. 'Abdullah bin Ubay berkata kepada beliau: "Wahai saudara! Sesungguhnya apa yang kamu katakan tidak ada kebaikannya sedikit pun, bila apa yang kau katakan itu benar, maka janganlah kamu mengganggu kami di majlis ini, silahkan kembali ke kendaraan anda, lalu siapa saja dari kami mendatangi anda, silahkan anda bercerita padanya." 'Abdullah bin Rawahah berkata; "Wahai Rasulullah, bergabunglah dengan kami di majlis ini karena kami menyukai hal itu." Kaum muslimin, orang-orang musyrik dan orang-orang Yahudi pun saling mencaci hingga mereka hendak saling menyerang, Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam terus menenangkan mereka hingga mereka semuanya diam, kemudian beliau naik kendaraan hingga masuk ke kediaman Sa'd bin 'Ubadah lalu beliau bersabda: "Hai Sa'd! Apa kau tidak mendengar ucapan Abu Hubab?" maksud beliau tentang ucapan 'Abdullah bin Ubay. Sa'ad berkata; "Maafkan dia wahai Rasulullah dan berlapang dadalah kepadanya, demi Allah, Allah telah memberi anda apa yang telah diberikan pada anda. Penduduk telaga ini (penduduk Madinah -red) bersepakat untuk memilihnya dan mengangkatnya, namun karena kebenaran yang diberikan kepada anda itu muncul, sehingga menghalangi ia menjabat sebagai pemimpin, maka seperti itulah perbuatannya sebagaimana yang anda lihat." (HR. Bukhari: 5231)

Narrated Usama bin Zaid: The Prophet (ﷺ) rode a donkey having a saddle with a Fadakiyya velvet covering. He mounted me behind him and went to visit Saʿd bin ʿUbada, and that had been before the battle of Badr. The Prophet (ﷺ) proceeded till he passed by a gathering in which ʿAbdullah bin Ubai bin Salul was present, and that had been before ʿAbdullah embraced Islam. The gathering comprised of Muslims, polytheists, i.e., isolators and Jews. ʿAbdullah bin Rawaha was also present in that gathering. When dust raised by the donkey covered the gathering, ʿAbdullah bin Ubai covered his nose with his upper garment and said, "Do not trouble us with dust." The Prophet (ﷺ) greeted them, stopped and dismounted. Then he invited them to Allah (i.e., to embrace Islam) and recited to them some verses of the Holy Qurʾan. On that, ʿAbdullah bin Ubai said, "O man ! There is nothing better than what you say if it is true. Do not trouble us with it in our gathering, but return to your house, and if somebody comes to you, teach him there." On that ʿAbdullah bin Rawaha said, Yes, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Bring your teachings to our gathering, for we love that." So the Muslims, the pagans and the Jews started abusing each other till they were about to fight. The Prophet (ﷺ) kept on quietening them till they became calm. Thereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) mounted his animal and proceeded till he entered upon Saʿd bin Ubada. He said to him "O Saʿd! Have you not heard what Abu Hubab (i.e., ʿAbdullah bin Ubai) said?" Saʿd said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Excuse and forgive him, for Allah has given you what He has given you. The people of this town (Medina decided unanimously to crown him and make him their chief by placing a turban on his head, but when that was prevented by the Truth which Allah had given you he (ʿAbdullah bin Ubai) was grieved out of jealously, and that was the reason which caused him to behave in the way you have seen." (Bukhari: 5231)
