Usool as-Sunnah of Imam Abu Bakr Abdullah ibn az-Zubayr al-Humaydee (d. 219AH)
The Scholars Praise for Him: Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal said, We consider Humaydee an Imam. Abu Haatim said, The most reliable of people (in narrating) from ibn Uyaynah is al-Humaydee. He is the head of his companions (students), and he is a reliable Imam. Yaqub al-Fasawee said, We narrated from al-Humaydee and I did not meet anyone more sincere to Islam and its people than him. Al-Haakim said, When al-Bukhaaree would find a Hadeeth with al-Humaydee, he would not go beyond it to others. Harb al-Kirmani, al-Lalakaaee, ibn Taymiyyah, and others described him as an Imam of the Sunnah. Bishr ibn Musaa narrated to us, saying, al-Humaydee narrated to us saying,
Anas that he said, Allah (azza wa jal) divided the fay between the poor emigrants, those who were driven out of their homes and then said, and those who come after them say oh our Lord forgive us and our brethren (al-Hashr, Verses Number 8-10). And whoever does not say this concerning them, then he is not from those for whom there is fay.
(When is the proof established on the one who leaves the pillars of Islam, or some of them?)
As for three of them, then do not dispute the one who abandons them, (1) The one who does not give the testimony of faith, (2) nor does he pray, (3) nor does he fast for none of these are delayed from its time nor does it suffice one to make them up after deliberately neglecting to perform them at their time. As for Zakaah, whenever he gives it, it suffices him. Yet he is sinful in withholding it. And as for Hajj, then for whoever it is obligatory and he is capable of performing it, then it becomes binding on him, but it is not binding on him in that very year such that he has no other choice. Whenever he performs it, then he has fulfilled it, and he is not sinful in delaying it as he would be in delaying Zakaah, for Zakaah is the right of the poor Muslims which he has withheld from them and hence he is sinful until it reaches them. As
for Hajj, it is between him and his Lord, whenever he performs it, it is fulfilled. If he dies while he is able to perform it without having performed Hajj, he asks to be returned to the Dunya to perform Hajj, and it is obligatory on his family to perform Hajj on his behalf, and we hope that would be fulfilled on his behalf as if he had a debt and it was repaid on his behalf after he died.
