The Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out on one of his military expeditions, and when he returned, a black slave-girl came to him and said, "Messenger of Allah, I had vowed that if Allah brought you back safely, I would beat the tambourine in your presence and sing."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to her, "If you have made such a vow, then beat it. Otherwise, do not."So she began to beat the tambourine. Abu Bakr entered while she was beating it. Then Ali entered while she was beating it. Then Uthman entered while she was beating it. Then Umar entered, and she threw the tambourine under her backside and sat on it.The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Satan is afraid of you, Umar. I was sitting while she was beating the tambourine. Abu Bakr entered while she was beating it, then Ali entered while she was beating it, then Uthman entered while she was beating it. But when you entered, Umar, she threw the tambourine away."
خرج رسول الله ﷺ في بعض مغازيه، فلما انصرف جاءت جارية سوداء، فقالت: يا رسول الله إني كنت نذرت إن ردك الله سالما أن أضرب بين يديك بالدف وأتغنى، فقال لها رسول الله ﷺ: إن كنت نذرت فاضربي وإلا فلا فجعلت تضرب، فدخل أبو بكر وهي تضرب، ثم دخل علي وهي تضرب، ثم دخل عثمان وهي تضرب، ثم دخل عمر فألقت الدف تحت استها ثم قعدت عليه، فقال رسول الله ﷺ: إن الشيطان ليخاف منك يا عمر، إني كنت جالسا تضرب فدخل أبو بكر وهي تضرب، ثم دخل علي وهي تضرب، ثم دخل عثمان وهي تضرب. فلما دخلت أنت يا عمر ألقت الدف.
Tirmidhi (3690), Ahmad (22989), and Bayhaqi (10/77) all narrated it, and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (4386), all of them through the route of Husayn bin Waqid, who said, Abdullah bin Burayda narrated to me, he said, I heard my father Burayda say, and he mentioned it.Its chain is hasan because of Husayn bin Waqid, for his narrations are hasan. Tirmidhi said, This is a hasan sahih gharib hadith from the hadith of Burayda.
