SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 9 > BOOK 88: AFFLICTIONS AND THE END OF THE WORLD
the conditions enjoined by Allah and His Apostle and I do not know of anything more faithless than
fighting a person who has been given the oath of allegiance in accordance with the conditions en –
joined by Allah and His Apostle , and if ever I learn that any person among you has agreed to de –
throne Yazid, by giving the oath of allegiance (to somebody else) then there will be separation
between him and me.”
Volume 9, Book 88, Number 228:
Narrated Abu Al-Minhal:
When Ibn Ziyad and Marwan were in Sham and Ibn Az-Zubair took over the authority in Mecca
and Qurra’ (the Kharijites) revolted in Basra, I went out with my father to Abu Barza Al-Aslami till
we entered upon him in his house while he was sitting in the shade of a room built of cane. So we sat
with him and my father started talking to him saying, “O Abu Barza! Don’t you see in what dilemma
the people has fallen?” The first thing heard him saying “I seek reward from Allah for myself because
of being angry and scornful at the Quraish tribe. O you Arabs! You know very well that you were in
misery and were few in number and misguided, and that Allah has brought you out of all that with
Islam and with Muhammad till He brought you to this state (of prosperity and happiness) which you
see now; and it is this worldly wealth and pleasures which has caused mischief to appear among
you. The one who is in Sham (i.e., Marwan), by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of worldly
gain: and those who are among you, by Allah, are not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain;
and that one who is in Mecca (i.e., Ibn Az-Zubair) by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of
worldly gain.”

openly.’
