حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: قِيلَ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: ادْخُلُوا الْبَابَ سُجَّدًا، وَقُولُوا حِطَّةٌ، فَبَدَّلُوا فَدَخَلُوا يَزْحَفُونَ عَلَى أَسْتَاهِهِمْ، وَقَالُوا: حَبَّةٌ فِي شَعْرَةٍ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "It was said to Banî Israel, 'Enter the gate (of the town) bowing with humility (prostrating yourselves) and saying: 'Repentance', but they changed the word and entered the town crawling on their buttocks and saying: 'A wheat grain in the hair.'" [1] ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 615, Vol. 4 )
[1] They disobeyed Allâh تعالى both in action and in word. Thus Allâh punished them severely by sending on them an epidemic of plague disease. [See Tafsîr Tabarî , Vol. 1, P. 303, explanation of the Verse (V.2:59)].
حديث أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى تَابَعَ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ، قَبْلَ وَفَاتِهِ حَتَّى تَوَفَّاهُ أَكْثَرَ مَا كَانَ الْوَحْيُ ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، بَعْدُ.
Allâh تعالى sent down His Divine Inspiration to His Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم continuously and abundantly during the period preceding his death till He took him unto Him. That was the period of the greatest part of revelation, and Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم died after that. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 505, Vol. 6 )
حديث عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْيَهُودِ قَالَ لَهُ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ آيَةٌ فِي كِتَابِكُمْ تَقْرَءُونَهَا، لَوْ عَلَيْنَا، مَعْشَرَ الْيَهُودِ نَزَلَتْ، لَاتَّخَذْنَا ذلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا ⦗٣٣٢⦘ قَالَ: أَيُّ آيَةٍ قَالَ (الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الإِسْلَامَ دِينًا) قَالَ عُمَرُ: قَدْ عَرَفْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ، وَالْمَكَانَ الَّذِي نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ بِعَرَفَةَ، يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ.
Once a Jew said to me, "O chief of Believers! There is a Verse in your Holy Book which is read by all of you (Muslims) and had it been revealed to us, we would have taken that day (on which it was revealed) as an 'Eid (festival) day." 'Umar bin Al-Khattâb رضي الله عنه asked, "Which is that Verse?"The Jew replied, "This day I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islâm as your religion." (V.5:3)'Umar رضي الله عنه replied, "No doubt, we know when and where this Verse was revealed to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It was Friday and the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was standing at 'Arafât (i.e. the day of Hajj)." ( Sahih Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 43, Vol. 1)
حديث عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّه سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى (وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ) إِلَى (وَرُبَاعَ) فَقَالَتْ: يَا ابْنَ أُخْتِي هِيَ الْيَتِيمَةُ تَكُونُ فِي حَجْرِ وَلِيِّهَا، تُشَارِكهُ فِي مَالِهِ، فَيُعْجِبُهُ مَالُهَا وَجَمَالُهَا فَيُرِيدُ وَلِيُّهَا أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا بِغَيْرِ أَنْ يُقْسِطَ فِي صَدَاقِهَا، فَيُعْطِيَهَا مِثْلَ مَا يُعْطِيهَا غَيْرُهُ فَنُهُوا أَنْ يَنْكِحُوهُنَّ إِلَاّ أَنْ يُقْسِطُوا لَهُنَّ، وَيَبْلُغُوا بِهِنَّ أَعْلَى سُنَّتِهِنَّ مِنَ الصَّدَاقِ، وَأُمِرُوا أَنْ يَنْكِحُوا مَا طَابَ لَهُمْ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ سِوَاهُنَّقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: ثُمَّ إِنَّ النَّاسَ اسْتَفْتَوْا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، بَعْدَ هذِهِ الآيَةِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ (وَيَسْتَفْتُونَكَ فِي النِّسَاءِ) إِلَى قَوْلِهِ (وَتَرْغَبُونَ أَنْ تَنْكِحُوهُنَّ) وَالَّذِي ذَكَرَ اللهُ أَنَّهُ يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الْكِتَابِ، الآيَةُ الأُولَى الَّتِي قَالَ فِيهَا (وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَنْ لَا تُقْسِطُوا في الْيَتَامَى فَانْكِحُوا مَا طَابَ لَكُمْ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ)قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: وَقَوْلُ اللهِ فِي الآيَةِ الأُخْرَى (وَتَرْغَبُونَ أَنْ تَنْكِحُوهُنَّ) يَعْنِي ⦗٣٣٣⦘ هِيَ رَغْبَةُ أَحَدِكُمْ لِيَتِيمَتِهِ الَّتِي تكُونُ فِي حَجْرِهِ، حِينَ تَكُونُ قَلِيلَةَ الْمَالِ وَالْجَمَالِ فَنُهُوا أَنْ يَنْكِحُوا مَا رَغِبُوا فِي مَالِهَا وَجَمَالِهَا مِنْ يَتَامَى النِّسَاءِ، إِلَاّ بِالْقِسْطِ، مِنْ أَجْلِ رَغْبَتِهِمْ عَنْهُنَّ.
Narrated 'Urwa bin Az-Zubair that he had asked 'Âisha رضي الله عنها about the meaning of the Statement of Allâh تعالى : 'If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan-girls, then marry (other) women of your choice, two or three or four....' (V.4:3) She said, "O my nephew! This is about the orphan girl who lives with her guardian and shares his property. Her wealth and beauty may tempt him to marry her without giving her an adequate Mahr (bridal-money) which might have been given by another suitor. So, such guardians were forbidden to marry such orphan girls unless they treated them justly and gave them the most suitable Mahr; otherwise they were ordered to marry any other woman."'Âisha further said, "After that Verse the people again asked the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم (about the marriage with orphan-girls), so Allâh تعالى revealed the following Verses: 'They ask your legal instruction concerning women, say: Allâh instructs you about them, and about what is recited unto you in the Book, concerning the orphan-girls to whom you give not the prescribed portions (as regards Mahr and inheritance) and yet whom you desire to marry....' (V.4:127) What is meant by Allâh's saying:- 'And about what is recited unto you' is the former Verse which goes: 'If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan-girls, then marry (other) women of your choice...' (V.4:3) 'Âisha said, "Allâh's saying in the other Verse: '...Yet whom you desire to marry...' (V.4:127) means the desire of the guardian to marry an orphan girl under his guardianship when she has not much property or beauty (in which case he should treat her justly). The guardians were forbidden to marry the orphan girls under their care possessing property and beauty without being just to them, as they generally refrain from marrying them (when they are neither beautiful nor wealthy)."( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 674, Vol. 3)
حديث عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: (وَمَنْ كَانَ غَنِيًّا فَلْيَسْتَعْفِفْ، وَمَنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ) أُنْزِلَتْ فِي وَالِي الْيَتِيمِ الَّذِي يُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ، وَيُصْلِحُ فِي مَالِهِ، إِنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا أَكَلَ مِنْهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ.
I heard 'Âisha رضي الله عنها saying, "The Holy Verse:'Whoever amongst the guardians is rich, should take no wages (from the property of the orphans), but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable (according to his work)' (V.4:6), was revealed concerning the guardian of the orphans who looks after them and manages favourably their financial affairs; if the guardian is poor, he could have from it what is just and reasonable (according to his work)." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 414, Vol. 3)
حديث عَائِشَةَ (وَإِنِ امْرَأَةٌ خَافَتْ مِنْ بَعْلِهَا نُشُوزًا أَوْ إِعْرَاضًا) قَالَتْ: الرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ عِنْدَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ لَيْسَ بِمُسْتَكْثِرٍ مِنْهَا، يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُفَارِقَهَا فَتَقُولُ: أَجْعَلُكَ مِنْ شَأْنِي فِي حِلٍّ فَنَزَلَتْ هذِهِ الآيَةُ فِي ذَلِكَ.
Narrated رضي الله عنها 'Âisha regarding the explanation of the following Verse:'And if a woman fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part....' (V.4:128)"A man may dislike his wife and intend to divorce her, so she says to him, 'I give up my rights, so do not divorce me.' The above Verse was revealed concerning such a case." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 630, Vol. 3)
حديث ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ: آيَةٌ اخْتَلَفَ فِيهَا أَهْلُ الْكُوفَةِ فَرَحَلْتُ فِيهَا إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ: نَزَلَتْ هذِهِ الآيَةُ (وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ) هِيَ آخِرُ مَا نَزَلَ، وَمَا نَسَخَهَا شَيْءٌ.
The people of Kûfa disagreed (disputed) about the Verse. So I went to Ibn 'Abbâs and asked him about it. He said, "This Verse:'And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell,' (V.4:93), was revealed last of all (concerning premeditated murder) and nothing cancelled (abrogated) it." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 114, Vol. 6)
حديث ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ ابْنُ أَبْزَى: سُئِلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى (وَمَنْ ⦗٣٣٤⦘ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ)، وَقَوْلِهِ (وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللهُ إِلَاّ بِالْحَقِّ) حَتَّى بَلَغَ (إِلَاّ مَنْ تَابَ) فَسَأَلْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ قَالَ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ: فَقَدْ عَدَلْنَا بِاللهِ وَقَتَلْنَا النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللهُ إِلَاّ بِالْحَقِّ، وَأَتَيْنَا الْفَوَاحِشَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ (إِلَاّ مَنْ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا) إلى قَوْلِهِ (غَفُورًا رَحِيمًا).
Ibn Abza said to me, "Ask Ibn 'Abbâs regarding the Statement of Allâh تعالى :'And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell...' (V.4:93)And also His Statement:'Nor kill such life as Allâh has forbidden, except for a just cause... except those who repent, and believe, (in Islâmic Monotheism), and do righteous good deeds...' " (V.25:68-70).So I asked Ibn 'Abbâs and he said, "This (V.25:68-70) was revealed, (in connection with) the people of Makka when they said, 'We have (invoked other gods) as (rivals) equals with Allâh, and we have killed such lives which Allâh has made sacred, and we have committed illegal sexual intercourse, (before embracing Islâm).' So Allâh revealed:'Except those who repent and believe (in Islâmic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds... and Allâh is Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful.' " (V.25:70)( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 288, Vol. 6)
حديث ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنها (وَلَا تَقُولُوا لِمَنْ أَلْقى إِلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامَ لَسْتَ مُؤْمِنًا) قَالَ: كَانَ رَجُلٌ فِي غُنَيْمَةٍ لَهُ، فَلَحِقَهُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ، فَقَالَ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَتَلُوهُ وَأَخَذُوا غُنَيْمَتَهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ فِي ذَلِكَ، إِلَى قَوْلِهِ (عَرَضَ الْحَياةِ الدُّنْيَا) تِلْكَ الْغُنَيْمَةُ.
Narrated Ibn 'Abbâs رضى الله عنهما regarding the Verse:'And say not to anyone who greets you (by embracing Islâm), you are not a believer,' (V.4:94)There was a man amidst his flock of sheep. The Muslims pursued him, and he greeted them by saying " As-Salâm-o-Alaikum " (Peace be on you). But they killed him and took over his sheep. Thereupon Allâh تعالى revealed in that concern the above Verse up to:'...seeking the perishable goods of this worldly life...' (V.4:94)i.e. those sheep. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 115, Vol. 6 )
حديث الْبَرَاءِ رضي الله عنها، قَالَ: نَزَلَتْ هذِهِ الآيَةُ فِينَا كَانَتِ الأَنْصَارُ، إِذَا حَجُّوا فَجَاءُوا، لَمْ يَدْخُلُوا مِنْ قِبَلِ أَبْوَابِ بُيُوتِهِمْ، وَلكِنْ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ ⦗٣٣٥⦘ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَدَخَلَ مِنْ قِبَلِ بَابِهِ، فَكَأَنَّهُ عُيِّرَ بِذلِكَ، فَنَزَلَتْ (وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا وَلكِنَّ الْبِرَّ مَنِ اتَّقى وَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا).
This (following) Verse was revealed regarding us, for the Ansâr on returning from Hajj never entered their houses through the proper doors but from behind. One of the Ansâr came and entered through the door and he was taunted for it. Therefore, the following Verse was revealed:'...It is not Al-Birr (righteousness, piety etc.) that you enter the houses from the back, but Al-Birr is the quality of the one who fears Allâh. So, enter houses through their proper doors...' " (V.2:189)( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 30, Vol. 3 )
