حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا بَيَانٌ، أَنَّ وَبَرَةَ، حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا أَوْ إِلَيْنَا ابْنُ عُمَرَ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ كَيْفَ تَرَى فِي قِتَالِ الْفِتْنَةِ‏.‏ فَقَالَ وَهَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الْفِتْنَةُ كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُقَاتِلُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، وَكَانَ الدُّخُولُ عَلَيْهِمْ فِتْنَةً، وَلَيْسَ كَقِتَالِكُمْ عَلَى الْمُلْكِ‏.‏

Ibn `Umar said (to him), "And do you understand what an affliction is?

Saeed bin Jubair bataate hain: Ibn Umar hamare paas aaye aur ek shaks ne (unse) pucha, 'Fitne ki wajah se hone wali jang ke baare mein aapki kya raay hai?' Ibn Umar ne (usse) pucha, 'Aur kya tumhein pata hai fitna kya hota hai? Muhammad (SAW) mushrikeen ke khilaaf jang karte the, aur unki wo jang fitna (yaani kufr) ke khilaaf thi, tumhari is jang ki tarah nahi jo hukoomat haasil karne ke liye hoti hai.'
