Shuba reported from Habib: While we were in Medina we heard of plague having broken out in Kufa. Ata Bin Yasir and others said to me that Allah Messenger ﷺ had said. If you are in a land where it this scourge has broken out; dont get out of it; and if you were to know that it had broken in another land; then dont enter it. I said to him: From whom did you hear it ? They said: Amir Bin Saad has narrated it. So I came to him. They said that he was not present there. So I met his brother Ibrahim Bin Saad and asked him. He said: I bear testimony to the fact that Usama narrated it to Saad saying: I heard Allah Messenger ﷺ as saying that it is a God-sent punishment from the calamity or from the remnant of the calamity with which people were afflicted before you. So when it is in a land and you are there; dont get out of it; and if this news reaches you that it has broken out in a land; then dont enter therein. Habib said: I said to Ibrahim: Did you hear Usama narrating it to Saad and he was not denying it. He said: Yes.
