It was narrated from Sumait bin Sumair, that ‘Imran bin Husain said:“Nafi’ bin Azraq and his companions came and said: ‘You are doomed, O ‘Imran!’ He (‘Imran) said: ‘I am not doomed.’ They said: ‘Yes you are.’ I said: ‘Why am I doomed?’ They said: ‘Allah says: “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism, i.e., worshipping others besides Allah), and the religion (worship) will be all for Allah Alone.”[8:39] He said: ‘We fought them until they were defeated and the religion was all for Allah Alone. If you wish, I will tell you a Hadith that I heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ They said: ‘Did you (really) hear it from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’ He said: ‘Yes. I was with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he had sent an army of the Muslims to the idolaters. When they met them they fought them fiercely, and they (the idolaters) gave them their shoulders (i.e., turned and fled). A man among my kin attacked an idolator man with a spear, and when he was defeated he said: “I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, I am a Muslim.” But he stabbed him and killed him. He came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: “O Messenger of Allah, I am doomed.” He said “What is it that you have done?” one or two times. He told him what he had done and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: “Why didn’t you cut open his belly and find out what was in his heart?” He said: “O Messenger of Allah, I wish I had cut open his belly and could have known what was in his heart.” He said: “You did not accept what he said, and you could not have known what was in his heart!” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remained silent concerning him (that man), and a short while later he died. We buried him, but the following morning he was on the surface of the earth. They said: “Perhaps an enemy of his disinterred him.” So we buried him (again) and told our slaves to stand guard. But the following morning he was on the surface of the earth again then we said: ‘Perhaps the slaves dozed off.’ So we buried him (again) and stood guard ourselves, but the following morning he was on the surface of the earth (again). So we threw him into one of these mountain passes.’”

حدثنا سويد بن سعيد، حدثنا علي بن مسهر، عن عاصم، عن السميط بن السمير، عن عمران بن الحصين، قال اتى نافع بن الازرق واصحابه فقالوا هلكت يا عمران . قال ما هلكت . قالوا بلى . قال ما الذي اهلكني قالوا قال الله {وقاتلوهم حتى لا تكون فتنة ويكون الدين كله لله} . قال قد قاتلناهم حتى نفيناهم فكان الدين كله لله ان شيتم حدثتكم حديثا سمعته من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم . قالوا وانت سمعته من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم . قال نعم شهدت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وقد بعث جيشا من المسلمين الى المشركين فلما لقوهم قاتلوهم قتالا شديدا فمنحوهم اكتافهم فحمل رجل من لحمتي على رجل من المشركين بالرمح فلما غشيه قال اشهد ان لا اله الا الله اني مسلم فطعنه فقتله فاتى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال يا رسول الله هلكت قال " وما الذي صنعت " . مرة او مرتين فاخبره بالذي صنع فقال له رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم " فهلا شققت عن بطنه فعلمت ما في قلبه " . قال يا رسول الله لو شققت بطنه اكنت اعلم ما في قلبه قال " فلا انت قبلت ما تكلم به ولا انت تعلم ما في قلبه " . قال فسكت عنه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فلم يلبث الا يسيرا حتى مات فدفناه فاصبح على ظهر الارض فقالوا لعل عدوا نبشه فدفناه ثم امرنا غلماننا يحرسونه فاصبح على ظهر الارض فقلنا لعل الغلمان نعسوا فدفناه ثم حرسناه بانفسنا فاصبح على ظهر الارض فالقيناه في بعض تلك الشعاب
