حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الثَّقَفِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ أَحْيَى أَرْضًا مَيِّتَةً فَهِيَ لَهُ وَلَيْسَ لِعِرْقِ ظَالِمٍ حَقٌّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ بَعْضُهُمْ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مُرْسَلاً ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ قَالُوا لَهُ أَنْ يُحْيِيَ الأَرْضَ الْمَوَاتَ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِ السُّلْطَانِ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لَيْسَ لَهُ أَنْ يُحْيِيَهَا إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِ السُّلْطَانِ ‏.‏ وَالْقَوْلُ الأَوَّلُ أَصَحُّ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ وَعَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ الْمُزَنِيِّ جَدِّ كَثِيرٍ وَسَمُرَةَ ‏.‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيَّ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ ‏"‏ وَلَيْسَ لِعِرْقِ ظَالِمٍ حَقٌّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ الْعِرْقُ الظَّالِمُ الْغَاصِبُ الَّذِي يَأْخُذُ مَا لَيْسَ لَهُ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي يَغْرِسُ فِي أَرْضِ غَيْرِهِ قَالَ هُوَ ذَاكَ ‏.‏
