أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ الْمَوْصِلِيُّ، عَنِ الْمُعَافَى، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْمَكِّيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْبَدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لِمُعَاذٍ حِينَ بَعَثَهُ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ " إِنَّكَ تَأْتِي قَوْمًا أَهْلَ كِتَابٍ فَإِذَا جِئْتَهُمْ فَادْعُهُمْ إِلَى أَنْ يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ هُمْ أَطَاعُوكَ بِذَلِكَ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ فَإِنْ هُمْ - يَعْنِي أَطَاعُوكَ بِذَلِكَ - فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ صَدَقَةً تُؤْخَذُ مِنْ أَغْنِيَائِهِمْ فَتُرَدُّ عَلَى فُقَرَائِهِمْ فَإِنْ هُمْ أَطَاعُوكَ بِذَلِكَ فَاتَّقِ دَعْوَةَ الْمَظْلُومِ " .
Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Ammar al-Mawsili reported from al-Muafa, from Zakariyya ibn Ishaq al-Makki, who said: Yahya ibn Abdullah ibn Sayfi narrated to us, from Abu Mab ad, from Ibn Abbas, who said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Muadh to Yemen, he said to him: You are going to a people who are People of the Book. When you reach them, call them to testify that there is no deity but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. If they obey you in that, tell them that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has prescribed five prayers for them in each day and night. If they—that is, obey you in that—then tell them that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has prescribed a charity to be taken from their wealthy and returned to their poor. If they obey you in that, then beware of the supplication of the wronged person.
Translation notes
The Arabic includes the five daily prayers before the charity instruction, omitted in the English witness. It also contains the parenthetical clarification that if they means if they obey you in that.
