حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَرْزُوقِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ، قَالَ: نَا مُوسَى بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: نَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ:
أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ سُلَيْمَانَ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ يُصَلِّي رَأَى شَجَرَةً نَابِتَةً بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ لَهَا: مَا اسْمُكِ ؟ فَتَقُولُ: كَذَا، فَيَقُولُ: لِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ أَنْتِ ؟ فَتَقُولُ: لِكَذَا، فَإِنْ كَانَتْ لِدَوَاءٍ كُتِبَتْ، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ مِنْ غَرْسٍ غُرِسَتْ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ يُصَلِّي إِذَا شَجَرَةٌ نَابِتَةٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهَا: مَا اسْمُكِ ؟ قَالَتِ: الْخَرْنُوبَةُ، قَالَ: لِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ أَنْتِ ؟ قَالَتْ: لِخَرَابِ هَذَا الْبَيْتِ، قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ: اللَّهُمَّ عَمِّ عَلَى الْجِنِّ مَوْتِي، حَتَّى تَعْلَمَ الْإِنْسُ أَنَّ الْجِنَّ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ الْغَيْبَ فَأَخَذَ عَصَاهُ فَتَوَكَّأَ عَلَيْهَا فَمَاتَ وَالْجِنُّ تَعْمَلُ، فَأَكَلَتْهَا الْأَرَضَةُ فِي سَنَةٍ فَسَقَطَ، فَـ ( تَبَيَّنَتِ الْجِنُّ أَنْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ الْغَيْبَ مَا لَبِثُوا حَوْلًا فِي الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِينِ ). وَكَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَقْرَؤُهَا كَذَلِكَ قَالَ: فَشَكَرَتِ الْجِنُّ لِلْأَرَضَةِ فَكَانَتْ تَأْتِيهَا بِالْمَاءِ

✧ The Prophet of Allah, Sulaymān, when he stood to pray, would see a tree growing before him and say to it: What is your name? It would say: Such-and-such. He would say: For what purpose are you? It would say: For such-and-such. If it was for a remedy, it was recorded; and if it was for planting, it was planted. While he was praying one day, a tree grew before him, and he said to it: What is your name? It said: The carob tree. He said: For what purpose are you? It said: For the ruin of this house. Sulaymān said: O Allah, make my death unknown to the jinn, so that mankind may know that the jinn do not know the unseen. He took his staff and leaned upon it, and he died while the jinn were working. Termites ate it within a year, and he fell. Then 'the jinn realized that if they had known the unseen, they would not have remained in humiliating torment' [for a year]. Ibn ʿAbbās used to recite it in that way. He said: So the jinn thanked the termites, and they used to bring it water.
