اخبرنا عمرو بن علي، حدثنا يحيى وهو ابن سعيد، قال: حدثنا قرة بن خالد، قال: حدثنا حميد بن هلال، قال: حدثني ابو بردة، عن ابي موسى، قال: اقبلت إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ومعي رجلان من الاشعريين، احدهما عن يميني والآخر عن يساري ورسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يستاك فكلاهما سال العمل قلت: والذي بعثك بالحق نبيا، ما اطلعاني على ما في انفسهما وما شعرت انهما يطلبان العمل، فكاني انظر إلى سواكه تحت شفته قلصت، فقال:" إنا لا او لن نستعين على العمل من اراده، ولكن اذهب انت"، فبعثه على اليمن ثم اردفه معاذ بن جبل رضي الله عنهما.
It was narrated from Abu Burdah that Abu Musa said: "I came to the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) when he was using the Siwak and with me were two men of the Ash'aris - one on my right and the other on my left - who were seeking to be appointed as officials. I said: 'By the One Who sent you as a Prophet with the truth, they did not tell me why they wanted to come with me and I did not realize that they were seeking to be appointed as officials.' And I could see his Siwak beneath his lip, then it slipped and he said: 'We do not' - or; 'We will never appoint as an official anyone who seeks that. Rather you should go.'" So he sent his (Abu Musa) to Yemen, then he sent Mu'adh bin Jabal to go after him - may Allah be pleased with them.
