Sunan an-Nasai 4168 (Book 39, Hadith 20) #18701
Jihad in Place of Emigration

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad accepted a pledge of Jihad instead of emigration from a man on the day of the Conquest of Makkah.

It was narrated from 'Amr bin 'Abdur-Rahman bin Umayyah that his father told him that Ya'la said: "I came to the Messenger of Allah with my father on the day of the Conquest (of Makkah) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, accept my father's pledge to emigrate'. The Messenger of Allah said: 'I will accept his pledge for Jihad, for the emigration (Hijrah) has ceased"'.
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ اللَّيْثِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُقَيْلٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ يَعْلَى قَالَ جِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ بِأَبِي يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بَايِعْ أَبِي عَلَى الْهِجْرَةِ ‏.‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ أُبَايِعُهُ عَلَى الْجِهَادِ وَقَدِ انْقَطَعَتِ الْهِجْرَةُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Strive for excellence; Put your trust in Allah; Strive for Allah’s cause; Sacrifice your comfort and safety if needed.

EXPLANATIONS:
On the day of the Conquest (of Makkah), Ya'la came to Prophet Muhammad with his father and asked him to accept his father's pledge to emigrate. However, instead, Prophet Muhammad accepted his father's pledge for Jihaad or struggle in Allah's cause. This hadith teaches us that we should strive for Allah's cause even if it means sacrificing our comfort and safety. It also shows us that we should be willing to put our trust in Allah and His Messenger as Ya'la did when he asked Prophet Muhammad to accept his father's pledge despite knowing that emigration was no longer necessary at this point. We can learn from this hadith that we should always strive for excellence in whatever task we are given by putting our trust in Allah and His Messenger.
