Sahih al-Bukhari 1077
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَنَّ ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَهُمْ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْهُدَيْرِ التَّيْمِيِّ ـ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَكَانَ رَبِيعَةُ مِنْ خِيَارِ النَّاسِ عَمَّا حَضَرَ رَبِيعَةُ مِنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَرَأَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ بِسُورَةِ النَّحْلِ حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَ السَّجْدَةَ نَزَلَ فَسَجَدَ وَسَجَدَ النَّاسُ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَتِ الْجُمُعَةُ الْقَابِلَةُ قَرَأَ بِهَا حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَ السَّجْدَةَ قَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّا نَمُرُّ بِالسُّجُودِ فَمَنْ سَجَدَ فَقَدْ أَصَابَ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْجُدْ فَلاَ إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ. وَلَمْ يَسْجُدْ عُمَرُ ـ رضى الله عنه. وَزَادَ نَافِعٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يَفْرِضِ السُّجُودَ إِلاَّ أَنْ نَشَاءَ.
Ibrahim ibn Musa narrated to us; he said: Hisham ibn Yusuf informed us that Ibn Jurayj informed them; he said: Abu Bakr ibn Abi Mulaykah informed me, from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman al-Taymi, from Rabi‘ah ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Hudayr al-Taymi—Abu Bakr said, ‘Rabi‘ah was among the best of people’—concerning what Rabi‘ah witnessed of ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him): On Friday, ‘Umar recited Surat al-Nahl from the pulpit. When he reached the prostration verse, he descended, prostrated, and the people prostrated. The following Friday, when he recited it and reached the prostration verse, he said: ‘O people, we encounter prostrations. Whoever prostrates has done right, and whoever does not prostrate bears no sin.’ ‘Umar did not prostrate. Nafi‘ added, from Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both): ‘Allah has not made prostration obligatory; it is only if we choose to do so.’
