حديث ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ وَقَّاصٍ، أَنَّ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ لِبَوَّابِهِ: اذْهَبْ يَا رَافِعُ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فَقُلْ: لَئِنْ كَانَ كُلُّ امْرٍىءٍ فَرِحَ بِمَا أُوتِيَ، وَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يُحْمَدَ بِمَا لَمْ يَفْعَلْ مُعَذَّبًا، لَنُعَذَّبَنَّ أَجْمعُونَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاس: وَمَا لَكُمْ وَلِهذِهِ ⦗٢٧٢⦘ إِنَّمَا دَعَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَهُودَ، فَسَأَلَهُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ، فَكَتَمُوهُ إِيَّاهُ، وَأَخْبَرُوهُ بِغَيْرِهِ فَأَرَوْهُ أَنْ قَدِ اسْتَحْمَدُوا إِلَيْهِ بِمَا أَخْبَرُوهُ عَنْهُ فِيمَا سَأَلَهُمْ وَفَرِحُوا بِمَا أُوتُوا مِنْ كِتْمَانِهِمْ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ (وَإِذْ أَخَذَ اللهُ مِيثَاقَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ) كَذلِكَ، حَتَّى قَوْلِهِ (يَفْرَحُونَ بِمَا أَتَوْا وَيُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يُحْمَدُوا بِمَا لَمْ يَفْعَلوا).
‘Alqama bin Waqqâs Narrated from:
Narrated ‘Alqama bin Waqqâs said to his gatekeeper, Marwân رضى الله عنه : “Go to Ibn ‘Abbâs, O Râfî’, and say, ‘If everybody who rejoices in what he has done (or brought about), and likes to be praised for what he has not done will be punished, then all of us will be punished.’”Ibn ‘Abbâs said, “What connection have you with this case?” [1] It was only that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم called the Jews and asked them about something, and they hid the truth and told him something else, and showed him that they deserved praise for the favour of telling him the answer to his question, and they became happy with what they had concealed.”Then Ibn ‘Abbâs recited: ‘(And remember) when Allâh took a covenant from these who were given the Scripture... those who rejoice in what they have done (or brought about) and love to be praised for what they have not done....’ (V.3:187, 188)( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 91, Vol. 6)
