Hadith text

Narrated Ibn `Umar:`Umar set out along with the Prophet (ﷺ) with a group of people to Ibn Saiyad till they saw him playing with the boys near the hillocks of Bani Mughala. Ibn Saiyad at that time was nearing his puberty and did not notice (us) until the Prophet (ﷺ) stroked him with his hand and said to him, "Do you testify that I am Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)?" Ibn Saiyad looked at him and said, "I testify that you are the Messenger of illiterates." Then Ibn Saiyad asked the Prophet (ﷺ), "Do you testify that I am Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)?" The Prophet (ﷺ) refuted it and said, "I believe in Allah and His Apostles." Then he said (to Ibn Saiyad), "What do you think?" Ibn Saiyad answered, "True people and liars visit me." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You have been confused as to this matter." Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, "I have kept something (in my mind) for you, (can you tell me that?)" Ibn Saiyad said, "It is Al-Dukh (the smoke)." (2) The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Let you be in ignominy. You cannot cross your limits." On that `Umar, said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Allow me to chop his head off." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If he is he (i.e. Dajjal), then you cannot overpower him, and if he is not, then there is no use of murdering him." (Ibn `Umar added): Later on Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) once again went along with Ubai bin Ka`b to the date-palm trees (garden) where Ibn Saiyad was staying. The Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to hear something from Ibn Saiyad before Ibn Saiyad could see him, and the Prophet (ﷺ) saw him lying covered with a sheet and from where his murmurs were heard. Ibn Saiyad's mother saw Allah's Apostle while he was hiding himself behind the trunks of the date-palm trees. She addressed Ibn Saiyad, "O Saf ! (and this was the name of Ibn Saiyad) Here is Muhammad." And with that Ibn Saiyad got up. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Had this woman left him (Had she not disturbed him), then Ibn Saiyad would have revealed the reality of his case

Ibn Umar (رضی اللہ عنہما) bataate hain: Umar Nabi ke saath kuch logon ke saath Ibn Saiyad ke paas nikle yahan tak ke unhone use Bani Mughala ke tibbon ke qareeb bacchon ke saath khelte dekha. Ibn Saiyad us waqt balig hone ke qareeb tha aur usne (humein) tab tak notice nahi kiya jab tak Nabi ne apne haath se use chhua aur usse kaha: "Kya tum gawahi dete ho ke main Allah ka Rasool hoon?" Ibn Saiyad ne unhe dekha aur kaha: "Main gawahi deta hoon ke aap un-padhon ke Rasool hain." Phir Ibn Saiyad ne Nabi se pucha: "Kya aap gawahi dete hain ke main Allah ka Rasool hoon?" Nabi ne is baat ka inkaar kiya aur kaha: "Main Allah aur uske Rasoolon par iman rakhta hoon." Phir Aap ne (Ibn Saiyad se) pucha: "Tumhe kya lagta hai?" Ibn Saiyad ne jawab diya: "Sachche aur jhoote log mere paas aate hain." Nabi ne kaha: "Tum is maamle mein confuse ho gaye ho." Phir Nabi ne usse kaha: "Maine tumhare liye (apne zehen mein) kuch chhupaya hai (kya tum bata sakte ho)?" Ibn Saiyad ne kaha: "Yeh Al-Dukh hai (yaani dhuan)." Nabi ne kaha: "Tum zaleel ho jao. Tum apni hadd paar nahi kar sakte." Isspar Umar ne kaha: "Ya Allah ke Rasool! Mujhe ijazat dein main iska sar kaat dun." Nabi ne farmaya: "Agar yeh wahi (Dajjal) hai, to tum isse kabhi ghalba nahi paoge, aur agar yeh woh nahi hai, to ise qatl karne ka koi fayda nahi." (Ibn Umar ne joda:) Baad mein Allah ke Rasool ek baar phir Ubai bin Ka'b ke saath khajoor ke darakhton (bagiche) ki taraf gaye jahan Ibn Saiyad thehra hua tha. Nabi Ibn Saiyad se kuch sunna chahte the isse pehle ke Ibn Saiyad unhe dekh sake, aur Nabi ne use ek chadar mein lipta hua leta dekha jahan se uski bud-bud awaazein aa rahi thi. Ibn Saiyad ki maa ne Allah ke Rasool ko dekha jabke Aap khajoor ke tanon ke peechhe chhupe hue the. Usne Ibn Saiyad se kaha: "Aye Saf! (yeh Ibn Saiyad ka naam tha) Yeh Muhammad hain." Isi ke saath Ibn Saiyad uth gaya. Nabi ne farmaya: "Agar yeh aurat use na chhedati (na disturb karti), to Ibn Saiyad apni asliyat zahir kar deta."
