حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ وَرْدَانَ الْأَسَدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ:
لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: وَلِلَّهِ عَلَى النَّاسِ حِجُّ الْبَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلا، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَفِي كُلِّ عَامٍ ؟ فَسَكَتَ، ثُمَّ قَالُوا: فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، وَلَوْ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ لَوَجَبَتْ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا تَسْأَلُوا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ إِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ. إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ

✧ When this verse was revealed: 'And [due] to Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to the House – for whoever is able to find thereto a way' [Qur'an 3:97], they said, 'O Messenger of Allah, is it every year?' He remained silent. Then they said, 'Every year?' He said, 'No; and if I had said yes, it would have become obligatory.' Then Allah revealed: 'O you who have believed, do not ask about things which, if they are shown to you, will distress you' [Qur'an 5:101], to the end of the verse.
