Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ، عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ فَمَنْ قَالَهَا فَقَدْ عَصَمَ مِنِّي نَفْسَهُ وَمَالَهُ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهِ وَحِسَابُهُ عَلَى اللَّهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn al-Mughira informed us; he said: Uthman narrated to us, from Shuayb, from al-Zuhri. H. Amr ibn Uthman ibn Said ibn Kathir also reported to me; he said: My father narrated to us; he said: Shuayb narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, who said: Said ibn al-Musayyab narrated to me that Abu Hurayrah informed him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: I have been commanded to fight the people until they say, There is no god but Allah. Whoever says it has protected his life and property from me, except when a rightful claim applies; and his reckoning is with Allah.
