حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ أَنْبَأَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ صِلَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ مُسَيْلِمَةَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَتَشْهَدُ أَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ شَيْئًا فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَوْلَا أَنِّي لَا أَقْتُلُ الرُّسُلَ أَوْ لَوْ قَتَلْتُ أَحَدًا مِنْ الرُّسُلِ لَقَتَلْتُكَ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Aswad ibn Amir told us, Sharik informed us, from Abu Ishaq, from Silah, from Abdullah, that the messenger of Musaylimah came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and said to him: "Do you testify that I am the messenger of Allah?" He said something to him. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him: "Were it not that I do not kill messengers - or, had I ever killed a messenger, I would have killed you."
