حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَسْوَدُ بْنُ شَيْبَانَ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ سُمَيْرٍ السَّدُوسِيِّ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيكٍ، عَنْ بَشِيرٍ، مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَكَانَ اسْمُهُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ زَحْمُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ فَهَاجَرَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ " مَا اسْمُكَ " . قَالَ زَحْمٌ . قَالَ " بَلْ أَنْتَ بَشِيرٌ " . قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا أُمَاشِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَرَّ بِقُبُورِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ " لَقَدْ سَبَقَ هَؤُلاَءِ خَيْرًا كَثِيرًا " . ثَلاَثًا ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِقُبُورِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَقَالَ " لَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ هَؤُلاَءِ خَيْرًا كَثِيرًا " . وَحَانَتْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَظْرَةٌ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ يَمْشِي فِي الْقُبُورِ عَلَيْهِ نَعْلاَنِ فَقَالَ " يَا صَاحِبَ السِّبْتِيَّتَيْنِ وَيْحَكَ أَلْقِ سِبْتِيَّتَيْكَ " . فَنَظَرَ الرَّجُلُ فَلَمَّا عَرَفَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَلَعَهُمَا فَرَمَى بِهِمَا .
Bashir, the Messenger of Allah’s freedman, whose pre-Islamic name was Zahm ibn Ma‘bad, said that when he migrated to the Prophet, the Prophet asked his name. He replied, ‘Zahm,’ and the Prophet said, ‘Rather, you are Bashir.’ Bashir said, ‘As I walked with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he passed the graves of the polytheists and said three times, “These people have gone ahead to much good.” Then he passed the graves of Muslims and said, “These people have attained much good.” The Prophet then noticed a man walking among the graves in leather sandals. He said, “O wearer of the two sandals, woe to you! Take them off.” When the man recognized him, he removed and threw them away.’
