حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - ﷺ يَقُولُ:
أَلَا إِنَّمَا بَقَاؤُكُمْ فِيمَا سَلَفَ قَبْلَكُمْ مِنَ الْأُمَمِ كَمَا بَيْنَ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى غُرُوبِ الشَّمْسِ: أُوتِيَ أَهْلُ التَّوْرَاةِ التَّوْرَاةَ فَعَمِلُوا حَتَّى انْتَصَفَ النَّهَارُ ثُمَّ عَجَزُوا، فَأُعْطُوا قِيرَاطًا، ثُمَّ أُوتِيَ أَهْلُ الْإِنْجِيلِ الْإِنْجِيلَ فَعَمِلُوا إِلَى صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ، ثُمَّ عَجَزُوا فَأُعْطُوا قِيرَاطًا، ثُمَّ أُوتِينَا الْقُرْآنَ، فَعَمِلْنَا إِلَى غُرُوبِ الشَّمْسِ، فَأُعْطِينَا قِيرَاطَيْنِ قِيرَاطَيْنِ، فَقَالَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابَيْنِ: أَيْ رَبَّنَا، لِمَ أَعْطَيْتَ هَؤُلَاءِ قِيرَاطَيْنِ قِيرَاطَيْنِ، وَأَعْطَيْتَنَا قِيرَاطًا قِيرَاطًا، وَنَحْنُ كُنَّا أَكْثَرَ عَمَلٍ مِنْهُمْ ؟ قَالَ اللهُ: هَلْ ظَلَمْتُكُمْ مِنْ أَجْرِكُمْ شَيْئًا ؟ قَالُوا: لَا، قَالَ: فَهُوَ فَضْلِي أُوتِيهِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ

✧ Verily, your remaining among the nations that came before you is only like the time between the Asr prayer and the setting of the sun: the people of the Torah were given the Torah and they acted upon it until midday, then they were unable, so they were given a qirat. Then the people of the Gospel were given the Gospel and they acted until the Asr prayer, then they were unable, so they were given a qirat. Then we were given the Quran, and we acted until sunset, so we were given two qirats, two qirats. The people of the two scriptures said: 'O our Lord, why have You given these two qirats, two qirats, and given us a qirat, a qirat, while we did more work than them?' God said: 'Have I wronged you in anything of your reward?' They said: 'No.' He said: 'Then that is My bounty, which I give to whom I will.'
