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.
Ibn 'Abbas Narrated from:
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 )
