حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ وَرْدَانَ الْأَسَدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى عَنْأَبِيهِ 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، فَقَالُوا: أَفِي كُلِّ عَامٍ ؟ فَسَكَتَ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ قَالُوا: أَفِي كُلِّ عَامٍ ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا، وَلَوْ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ لَوَجَبَتْ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا تَسْأَلُوا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ إِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ، إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ

✧ When this verse was revealed: 'And pilgrimage to the House is a duty owed to God by people who are able to undertake it,' they said: O Messenger of God, every year? He remained silent. They said: 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 God Almighty revealed: 'O you who believe, do not ask about things which, if they are shown to you, would distress you,' to the end of the verse.

- ابن الملقن
حديث ضعيف منقطع أبو البختري لم يسمع من علي قال ابن عبد البر له مراسيل عنه ولم يسمع منه عبد الأعلى ضعفوه وقال أبو زرعة ضعيف الحديث ربما رفع الحديث وربما وقفه
machine translationA weak (ḍaʿīf) ḥadīth with a broken chain (munqaṭiʿ). Abū al-Bakhtarī did not hear from ʿAlī. Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr said: He has mursal narrations from him, and ʿAbd al-Aʿlā did not hear from him; they declared him weak. Abū Zurʿah said: He is weak in ḥadīth; at times he would raise a ḥadīth to the Prophet (marfūʿ) and at times he would stop it at a Companion (mawqūf).
