سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، يَخْطُبُ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ الْبَصْرَةِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ نَبِيٌّ إِلَّا وَلَهُ دَعْوَةٌ يَتَنَجَّزُهَا فِي الدُّنْيَا، وَإِنِّي خَبَّأْتُ دَعْوَتِي شَفَاعَةً لِأُمَّتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَأَنَا سَيِّدُ وَلَدِ آدَمَ وَلَا فَخْرَ، وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ تَنْشَقُّ عَنْهُ الْأَرْضُ وَلَا فَخْرَ، بِيَدِي لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ، وَآدَمُ وَمَنْ دُونَهُ تَحْتَ لِوَائِي وَلَا فَخْرَ، وَيَطُولُ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَيَشْتَدُّ، حَتَّى يَقُولَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: انْطَلِقُوا بِنَا إِلَى آدَمَ أَبِي الْبَشَرِ فَيَشْفَعَ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ فَيَقْضِي بَيْنَنَا، فَيَنْطَلِقُونَ إِلَى آدَمَ فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا آدَمُ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا، فَيَقُولُ آدَمُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكَ إِنِّي أُخْرِجْتُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ بِخَطِيئَتِي، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا نُوحًا فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا نُوحُ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَيَقْضِي بَيْنَنَا فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ دَعْوَةً أَغْرَقَتْ أَهْلَ الْأَرْضِ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلَ الرَّحْمَنِ فَيَأْتُونَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، إِنِّي كَذَبْتُ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ ثَلَاثَ كِذْبَاتٍ: قَوْلُهُ: إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ، وَقَوْلُهُ: بَلْ فَعَلَهُ كَبِيرُهُمْ هَذَا، وَقَوْلُهُ لِلْمَلِكِ حِينَ مَرَّ بِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: وَاللهِ مَا أَرَادَ بِهِمْ إِلَّا عِزَّةً لِدِينِ اللهِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا مُوسَى عَبْدًا اصْطَفَاهُ اللهُ بِرِسَالَتِهِ وَكَلَّمَهُ، فَيَأْتُونَ مُوسَى، فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا مُوسَى، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا، فَيَقُولُ: إِنِّي لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، إِنِّي قَتَلْتُ نَفْسًا وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا عِيسَى رُوحَ اللهِ وَكَلِمَتَهُ فَيَأْتُونَ عِيسَى، فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا عِيسَى، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، إِنِّي اتُّخِذْتُ إِلَهًا مِنْ دُونِ اللهِ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي، أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ كَانَ مَتَاعٌ فِي وِعَاءٍ مَخْتُومٍ أَكَانَ يُقْدَرُ عَلَى مَا فِيهِ حَتَّى يُفَضَّ الْخَاتَمُ ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: لَا، فَيَقُولُ: فَإِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا ﷺ خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ، وَقَدْ حَضَرَ، وَقَدْ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ، فَيَأْتُونَنِي، فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا، فَأَقُولُ: أَنَا لَهَا، حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ اللهُ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَرْضَى، فَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللهُ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ بَيْنَ خَلْقِهِ نَادَى مُنَادٍ: أَيْنَ أَحْمَدُ وَأُمَّتُهُ ؟ أَيْنَ أَحْمَدُ وَأُمَّتُهُ ؟ فَيَجِيئُونَ، فَنَحْنُ الْأَوَّلُونَ وَالْآخِرُونَ: آخِرُ مَنْ يُبْعَثُ، وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ يُحَاسَبُ فَتُفْرَجُ لَنَا الْأُمَمُ عَنْ طَرِيقِنَا، فَنَمْضِي غُرًّا مُحَجَّلِينَ مِنْ آثَارِ الطُّهُورِ، فَتَقُولُ الْأُمَمُ: كَادَتْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةُ أَنْ تَكُونَ أَنْبِيَاءَ كُلُّهَا
✧ I heard Ibn 'Abbas delivering a sermon on the pulpit of Basra. He said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said: There was no prophet but had a supplication that he hastened to use in this world, and I have reserved my supplication as intercession for my community on the Day of Resurrection. I am the master of the children of Adam, and no boast. I am the first from whom the earth will split open, and no boast. In my hand is the banner of praise, and Adam and those below him are under my banner, and no boast. The Day of Resurrection will be long and severe for people, until some of them say to others: 'Come with us to Adam, the father of mankind, so that he may intercede for us with your Lord and He may judge between us.' So they go to Adam and say: 'O Adam, intercede for us with your Lord so that He may judge between us.' Adam says: 'I am not in that position. I was expelled from the Garden because of my sin, and today nothing concerns me but my own self. But go to Noah.' So they say: 'O Noah, intercede for us with your Lord so that He may judge between us.' He says: 'I am not in that position. I made a supplication that drowned the people of the earth, and today nothing concerns me but my own self. But go to Abraham, the friend of the Most Merciful.' So they come to Abraham ﷺ and say: 'O Abraham, intercede for us with your Lord so that He may judge between us.' He says: 'I am not in that position. I told three lies in Islam: his saying, "I am sick," and his saying, "Rather, the eldest of them did this," and his saying to the king when he passed by him.' The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'By God, he intended by them nothing but honor for God's religion. And today nothing concerns me but my own self. But go to Moses, a servant whom God chose with His message and spoke to.' So they come to Moses and say: 'O Moses, intercede for us with your Lord so that He may judge between us.' He says: 'I am not in that position. I killed a soul, and today nothing concerns me but my own self. But go to Jesus, God's spirit and His word.' So they come to Jesus and say: 'O Jesus, intercede for us with your Lord so that He may judge between us.' He says: 'I am not in that position. I was taken as a god besides God, and today nothing concerns me but my own self. Do you see that if a piece of goods were in a sealed container, could what is inside it be reached until the seal is broken?' They say: 'No.' He says: 'Then Muhammad ﷺ is the seal of the prophets, and he has arrived, and God has forgiven him his previous and future sins.' So they come to me and say: 'O Muhammad, intercede for us with your Lord so that He may judge between us.' I say: 'I am for it,' until God permits whom He wills and is pleased. Then when God wants to judge between His creation, a caller calls out: 'Where is Ahmad and his community? Where is Ahmad and his community?' So they come, and we are the first and the last: the last to be raised and the first to be judged. So the nations are moved aside from our path, and we proceed with bright faces and limbs from the traces of purification. Then the nations say: 'This community was almost all prophets.'

✧ When your brothers were struck at Uhud, God placed their souls in the crops of green birds that frequent the rivers of the Garden and eat from its fruits and shelter in golden lamps suspended in the shade of the Throne. When they found the goodness of their food, drink, and resting place, they said: 'Who will convey to our brothers about us that we are alive in the Garden, provided for, so that they do not hold back in war and do not renounce striving?' He said: Then God said: 'I will convey to them about you.' So God, blessed and exalted, sent down: 'And do not reckon those who were killed in God's way as dead; rather, they are alive with their Lord...' the verse.

✧ A sheep belonging to Sawda bt. Zam'a died. She said: 'O Messenger of God, so-and-so died,' meaning the sheep. He said: 'Why did you not take its hide?' She said: 'Should we take the hide of a sheep that has died?' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'He only said: "Say: I do not find in what has been revealed to me anything forbidden to an eater who eats it..." the verse.

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ performed ʿumrah, and between him and the people of Makkah there was a pact that he would not take anyone of its people out. When the Messenger of God ﷺ finished his ʿumrah, he left Makkah and the Messenger of God ﷺ passed by the daughter of Ḥamzah b. ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib. She said: O Messenger of God, to whom are you leaving me? He did not turn to her due to the pact between him and the people of Makkah. Zayd b. Ḥārithah passed by her and she said: To whom are you leaving me? He did not turn to her. Jaʿfar passed by her, and she implored him, but he did not turn to her. Then ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib passed by her, and she said: O Abū Ḥasan, to whom are you leaving me? ʿAlī took her and placed her behind Fāṭimah. When they alighted, Zayd came to ʿAlī and said: I have more right to her than you; I am the mawlā of the Prophet of God ﷺ. ʿAlī said: I have more right to her than you. Jaʿfar said: I have more right to her; her maternal aunt is with me, Asmāʾ bt. ʿUmays al-Khathʿamiyyah. When their voices rose, the Messenger of God ﷺ sent for them. When they came to him, he said: As for you, O Jaʿfar, you resemble my physical form and my character. As for you, O ʿAlī, I am from you and you are my waṣī.

✧ Najdah al-Haruri wrote to Ibn ‘Abbas asking him about the share of the near relatives—for whom is it? About killing children, mentioning in his letter that the learned man, the companion of Musa, had killed the boy. And about women—did they attend war with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and was a share allotted to them? Yazid said: I wrote Ibn ‘Abbas's letter for him, and he wrote back: You wrote asking me about the share of the near relatives—for whom is it? It is for us, the People of the House. ‘Umar b. al-Khattab invited us to use it to marry our unmarried, to serve our needy, and to pay the debts of our debtors, but we refused unless he handed it over to us, and he refused, so we left it. You wrote asking me about killing children and mentioned that the learned man, the companion of Musa, killed the boy. If you knew about children what that learned man knew, you would kill. But you do not know, so avoid them, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade killing them. You wrote asking me about women—did they attend war with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and was a share allotted to them? They did attend with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, but no share was allotted to them; rather, he gave them a small amount.

We used to say: 'Tonight a great man was born, and tonight a great man died.'" He said: "It is not cast for anyone's death or life. But when our Lord, Blessed and Exalted is He, decrees a matter, the bearers of the Throne glorify Him, then the inhabitants of the heaven that follows them glorify Him, until the glorification reaches the inhabitants of the lowest heaven. Then they say to those who follow the bearers of the Throne: 'What did your Lord say?' They inform them, and the inhabitants of the heavens ask one another until the news reaches the inhabitants of the lowest heaven. Then the jinn snatch the hearing and cast it to their allies, and they are pelted. So what they bring as it is is true, but they distort it and add to it."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَتَبَ إِلَى قَيْصَرَ يَدْعُوهُ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ، فَبَعَثَ بِكِتَابِهِ مَعَ دِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيِّ، وَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى عَظِيمِ بُصْرَى لِيَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى قَيْصَرَ، فَدَفَعَهُ عَظِيمُ بُصْرَى إِلَى قَيْصَرَ، فَكَانَ قَيْصَرُ لَمَّا كَشَفَ اللهُ عَنْهُ جُنُودَ فَارِسَ، نَذَرَ أَنْ يَمْشِيَ مِنْ حِمْصَ إِلَى إِيلِيَاءَ بِمَا أَبْلَاهُ اللهُ فِي ذَلِكَ، فَلَمَّا جَاءَ قَيْصَرَ كِتَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ حِينَ قَرَأَ: الْتَمِسُوا هَلْ هَاهُنَا مِنْ قَوْمِهِ أَحَدٌ لِنَسْأَلَهُمْ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ
✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ wrote to Caesar inviting him to Islam, and sent his letter with Dihya al-Kalbi. The Messenger of God ﷺ ordered him to deliver it to the governor of Busra so that he would pass it on to Caesar. The governor of Busra delivered it to Caesar. When God had relieved Caesar of the armies of Persia, Caesar vowed that he would walk from Hims to Ilya' in gratitude for what God had granted him in that regard. When Caesar received the letter of the Messenger of God ﷺ, he said upon reading it: "Look for any of his people here so that we may ask them about the Messenger of God."

أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا بِالشَّامِ تُجَّارًا وَذَلِكَ فِي الْمُدَّةِ الَّتِي كَانَتْ بَيْنَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَبَيْنَ كُفَّارِ قُرَيْشٍ، قَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ فَأَتَانَا رَسُولُ قَيْصَرَ فَانْطَلَقَ بِي وَبِأَصْحَابِي حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا إِيلِيَاءَ فَأُدْخِلْنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَإِذَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي مَجْلِسِ مُلْكِهِ عَلَيْهِ التَّاجُ، وَإِذَا عُظَمَاءُ الرُّومِ فَقَالَ لِتَرْجُمَانِهِ سَلْهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ أَقْرَبُ إِلَى هَذَا الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ، قَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ أَنَا أَقْرَبُهُمْ، قَالَ: فَمَا قَرَابَتُكَ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ هُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّي، وَلَيْسَ فِي الرَّكْبِ يَوْمَئِذٍ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ مَنَافٍ غَيْرِي، قَالَ: فَقَالَ قَيْصَرُ: أَدْنُوهُ مِنِّي، فَأَمَرَ بِأَصْحَابِي فَجُعِلُوا خَلْفَ ظَهْرِي ثُمَّ قَالَ لِتَرْجُمَانِهِ إِنِّي سَائِلٌ هَذَا عَنْ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ، فَإِنْ كَذَبَ فَكَذِّبُوهُ. قَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ: لَوْلَا الِاسْتِحْيَاءُ يَوْمَئِذٍ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْثِرَ أَصْحَابِي عَنِّي الْكَذِبَ لَكَذَبْتُهُ حِينَ سَأَلَ، وَلَكِنِّي اسْتَحْيَيْتُ أَنْ يَأْثِرُوا عَنِّي الْكَذِبَ، فَصَدَقْتُ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لِتَرْجُمَانِهِ: قُلْ: كَيْفَ نَسَبُ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ فِيكُمْ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ هُوَ فِينَا ذُو نَسَبٍ، قَالَ: فَهَلْ قَالَ هَذَا الْقَوْلَ فِيكُمْ أَحَدٌ قَبْلَهُ قَطُّ ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: فَهَلْ كُنْتُمْ تَتَّهِمُونَهُ بِالْكَذِبِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُولَ مَا قَالَ ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: فَهَلْ كَانَ مِنْ آبَائِهِ مَلِكٌ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: فَأَشْرَافُ النَّاسِ اتَّبَعُوهُ أَمْ ضُعَفَاؤُهُمْ ؟ قَالَ: بَلْ ضُعَفَاؤُهُمْ. قَالَ: فَيَزِيدُونَ أَمْ يَنْقُصُونَ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ بَلْ يَزِيدُونَ، قَالَ: فَهَلْ يَغْدِرُ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: لَا، وَنَحْنُ الْآنَ مِنْهُ فِي مُدَّةٍ، فَنَحْنُ نَخَافُ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ: فَلَمْ تُمْكِنِّي كَلِمَةٌ أَدْخُلُ فِيهَا بِشَيْءٍ أَنْتَقِصُهُ بِهِ لِأَنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يُؤْثَرَ عَنِّي غَيْرُهَا. قَالَ: فَهَلْ قَاتَلْتُمُوهُ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: كَيْفَ كَانَتْ حَرْبُكُمْ وَحَرْبُهُ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: كَانَتْ سِجَالًا يُدَالُ عَلَيْنَا الْمَرَّةَ، وَيُدَالُ عَلَيْهِ الْأُخْرَى. قَالَ: فَبِمَاذَا يَأْمُرُكُمْ ؟ قُلْتُ: يَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ نَعْبُدَ اللهَ لَا نُشْرِكَ بِهِ شَيْئًا، وَيَنْهَانَا عَمَّا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا، وَيَأْمُرُنَا بِالصَّلَاةِ وَالصَّدَقَةِ، وَالْوَفَاءِ بِالْعَهْدِ، وَأَدَاءِ الْأَمَانَةِ. قَالَ: فَقَالَ لِتَرْجُمَانِهِ حِينَ قُلْتُ ذَلِكَ: سَأَلْتُكَ عَنْ نَسَبِهِ فِيكُمْ ؟ فَزَعَمْتَ أَنَّهُ فِيكُمْ ذُو نَسَبٍ، وَكَذَلِكَ الرُّسُلُ تُبْعَثُ بِأَنْسَابِ قَوْمِهَا، وَسَأَلْتُكَ هَلْ قَالَ هَذَا الْقَوْلَ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ قَبْلَهُ ؟ فَزَعَمْتَ أَنْ لَا، فَقُلْتُ: لَوْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ قَالَ هَذَا الْقَوْلَ قَبْلَهُ، قُلْتُ رَجُلٌ يَأْتَمُّ بِقَوْلٍ قِيلَ قَبْلَهُ، وَسَأَلْتُكَ: هَلْ كُنْتُمْ تَتَّهِمُونَهُ بِالْكَذِبِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُولَ مَا قَالَ ؟ فَزَعَمْتَ أَنْ لَا، فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِيَذَرَ الْكَذِبَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَيَكْذِبَ عَلَى اللهِ، وَسَأَلْتُكَ: هَلْ كَانَ مِنْ آبَائِهِ مَلِكٌ ؟ فَزَعَمْتَ أَنْ لَا، فَقُلْتُ: لَوْ كَانَ مِنْ آبَائِهِ مَلِكٌ، قُلْتُ: رَجُلٌ يَطْلُبُ مُلْكَ أَبِيهِ، وَسَأَلْتُكَ: أَشْرَافُ النَّاسِ يَتَّبِعُونَهُ أَمْ ضُعَفَاؤُهُمْ ؟ فَزَعَمْتَ أَنَّ ضُعَفَاءَهُمُ اتَّبَعُوهُ، وَهُمْ أَتْبَاعُ الرُّسُلِ، وَسَأَلْتُكَ
✧ They were merchants in the Levant, and that was during the period of truce between the Messenger of God ﷺ and the disbelievers of Quraysh. Abu Sufyan said: "The messenger of Caesar came to us and took me and my companions until we arrived at Ilya'. We were admitted to him, and there he was sitting in his royal court, wearing the crown, with the nobles of Byzantium around him. He said to his interpreter: 'Ask them which of them is closest in kinship to this man who claims to be a prophet.' Abu Sufyan said: 'I am the closest of them.' He said: 'How are you related to him?' I replied: 'He is my cousin, and in the caravan that day there was no man from Banu Abd Manaf other than me.'" He said: "Caesar said: 'Bring him near me,' and he ordered my companions to be placed behind me. Then he said to his interpreter: 'I will ask this man about this man who claims to be a prophet. If he lies, then declare him a liar.'" Abu Sufyan said: "Had it not been for the shame that my companions would report me as lying, I would have lied about him when he asked. But I was too ashamed for them to report me as lying, so I told the truth about him. Then he said to his interpreter: 'Say: How is this man's lineage among you?' I said: 'He is of noble lineage among us.' He said: 'Has anyone among you ever said such a thing before him?' I said: 'No.' He said: 'Did you ever accuse him of lying before he said what he said?' I said: 'No.' He said: 'Was any of his forefathers a king?' I said: 'No.' He said: 'Do the nobles or the weak among the people follow him?' I said: 'Rather the weak.' He said: 'Are they increasing or decreasing?' I said: 'They are increasing.' He said: 'Does he ever betray?' I said: 'No, but we are currently in a truce with him, and we fear that he might.'" Abu Sufyan said: "No opportunity arose for me to say anything by which I could belittle him, because I was afraid that something else would be reported from me." He said: "So he said: 'Have you fought him?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'How was your war and his war?' I said: 'It was alternating: sometimes he gained the upper hand over us, and sometimes we over him.' He said: 'What does he command you?' I said: 'He commands us to worship God alone without associating anything with Him, and he forbids us from what our forefathers worshipped. He commands us to pray, give charity, fulfill covenants, and render trusts.'" He said: "Then he said to his interpreter after I had said that: 'I asked you about his lineage among you, and you claimed that he is of noble lineage among you. Thus are messengers sent: among the noblest lineages of their people. I asked you whether anyone among you had said this before him, and you claimed no. I said to myself: If anyone among them had said this before him, I would have said he is a man following a statement said before him. I asked you whether you used to accuse him of lying before he said what he said, and you claimed no. I said to myself: He would not refrain from lying about people and then lie about God. I asked you whether any of his forefathers was a king, and you claimed no. I said to myself: If any of his forefathers had been a king, I would have said he is a man seeking his father's kingdom. I asked you whether the nobles or the weak follow him, and you claimed that the weak follow him, and they are the followers of the messengers. I asked you'"

تَذَاكَرَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَجُلَسَاؤُهُ مَا كَانَ اللهُ وَعَدَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مِنْ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ فِي ذُرِّيَّتِهِ أَنْبِيَاءَ وَمُلُوكًا، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَيَنْتَظِرُونَ ذَلِكَ مَا يَشُكُّونَ فِيهِ، وَقَدْ كَانُوا يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُ يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، فَلَمَّا هَلَكَ، قَالُوا: لَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ، إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَعَدَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: فَكَيْفَ تَرَوْنَهُ ؟ فَأْتَمَرُوا، وَأَجْمَعُوا أَمْرَهُمْ عَلَى أَنْ يَبْعَثَ رِجَالًا مَعَهُمُ الشِّفَارُ يَطُوفُونَ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَلَا يَجِدُونَ مَوْلُودًا ذَكَرًا إِلَّا ذَبَحُوهُ، فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا أَنَّ الْكِبَارَ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ يَمُوتُونَ بِآجَالِهِمْ، وَالصِّغَارَ يُذْبَحُونَ، قَالُوا: يُوشِكُ أَنْ تُفْنُوا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتَصِيرُونَ إِلَى أَنْ تُبَاشِرُوا مِنَ الْأَعْمَالِ الَّتِي كَانُوا يَكْفُونَكُمْ، فَاقْتُلُوا عَامًا كُلَّ مَوْلُودٍ ذَكَرٍ، فَيَقِلَّ نَبَاتُهُمْ، وَدَعُوا عَامًا فَلَا يُقْتَلُ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ، فَيَنْشَأَ الصِّغَارُ مَكَانَ مَنْ يَمُوتُ مِنَ الْكِبَارِ، فَإِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَكْثُرُوا بِمَنْ تَسْتَحْيُونَ مِنْهُمْ، فَتَخَافُوا مُكَاثَرَتَهُمْ إِيَّاكُمْ، وَلَنْ يَفْنَوْا بِمَنْ تَقْتُلُونَ، فَتَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَى ذَلِكَ، فَأَجْمَعُوا أَمْرَهُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، فَحَمَلَتْ أُمُّ مُوسَى بِهَارُونَ فِي الْعَامِ الَّذِي لَا يُذْبَحُ فِيهِ الْغِلْمَانُ، فَوَلَدَتْهُ عَلَانِيَةً آمِنَةً، فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنْ قَابِلٍ حَمَلَتْ بِمُوسَى، فَوَقَعَ فِي قَلْبِهَا الْهَمُّ وَالْحُزْنُ وَذَلِكَ مِنَ الْفُتُونِ يَا ابْنَ جُبَيْرٍ مَا دَخَلَ مِنْهُ فِي قَلْبِ أُمِّهِ مِمَّا يُرَادُ بِهِ، فَأَوْحَى اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى إِلَيْهَا: وَلا تَخَافِي وَلا تَحْزَنِي إِنَّا رَادُّوهُ إِلَيْكِ وَجَاعِلُوهُ مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَأَمَرَهَا إِذَا وَلَدَتْ أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ فِي تَابُوتٍ، ثُمَّ تُلْقِيهِ فِي الْيَمِّ، فَلَمَّا وَلَدَتْ فَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ بِهِ، فَلَمَّا تَوَارَى عَنْهَا ابْنُهَا، أَتَاهَا الشَّيْطَانُ، فَقَالَتْ فِي نَفْسِهَا: مَا صَنَعْتُ بِابْنٍ، لَوْ ذُبِحَ عِنْدِي فَوَارَيْتُهُ وَكَفَّنْتُهُ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُلْقِيَهُ بِيَدِي إِلَى زَفَرَاتِ الْبَحْرِ، وَحِيتَانِهِ ؟ فَانْتَهَى الْمَاءُ بِهِ حَتَّى انْتَهَى بِهِ فُرْضَةَ مُسْتَقَى جَوَارِي امْرَأَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَيْنَهُ أَخَذْنَهُ، فَهَمَمْنَ أَنْ يَفْتَحْنَ التَّابُوتَ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُنَّ: إِنَّ فِي هَذَا مَالًا، وَإِنَّا إِنْ فَتَحْنَاهُ لَمْ تُصَدِّقْنَا امْرَأَةُ الْمَلِكِ بِمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ، فَحَمَلْنَهُ بِهَيْئَتِهِ لَمْ يُحَرِّكْنَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا حَتَّى دَفَعْنَهُ إِلَيْهَا، فَلَمَّا فَتَحَتْهُ رَأَتْ فِيهِ غُلَامًا، فَأُلْقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْهَا مَحَبَّةٌ لَمْ تَجِدْ مِثْلَهَا عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنَ الْبَشَرِ قَطُّ، فَأَصْبَحَ فُؤَادُ أُمِّ مُوسَى فَارِغًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا مِنْ ذِكْرِ مُوسَى، فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ الذَّبَّاحُونَ بِأَمْرِهِ، أَقْبَلُوا بِشِفَارِهِمْ إِلَى امْرَأَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ لِيَذْبَحُوهُ، وَذَلِكَ مِنَ الْفُتُونِ يَا ابْنَ جُبَيْرٍ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُمُ: اتْرُكُوهُ، فَإِنَّ هَذَا الْوَاحِدَ لَا يَزِيدُ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، حَتَّى آتِيَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَأَسْتَوْهِبَهُ مِنْهُ، فَإِنْ وَهَبَهُ لِي كُنْتُمْ قَدْ أَحْسَنْتُمْ وَأَجْمَلْتُمْ، وَإِنْ أَمَرَ بِذَبْحِهِ لَمْ أَلُمْكُمْ، فَأَتَتْ بِهِ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَقَالَتْ: قُرَّتُ عَيْنٍ لِي وَلَكَ، قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: يَكُونُ لَكِ، فَأَمَّا لِي فَلَا حَاجَةَ لِي فِي ذَلِكَ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: وَالَّذِي أَحْلِفُ بِهِ، لَوْ أَقَرَّ فِرْعَوْنُ بِأَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُ قُرَّةَ عَيْنٍ كَمَا أَقَرَّتِ امْرَأَتُهُ، لَهَدَاهُ اللهُ بِهِ كَمَا هَدَى امْرَأَتَهُ، وَلَكِنْ حَرَمَهُ ذَلِكَ، فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَى مَنْ حَوْلَهَا مِنْ كُلِّ امْرَأَةٍ لَهَا لَبَنٌ لِتَخْتَارَ لَهُ ظِئْرًا، فَجَعَلَ كُلَّمَا أَخَذَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ لِتُرْضِعَهُ، لَمْ يَقْبَلْ ثَدْيَهَا حَتَّى أَشْفَقَتْ عَلَيْهِ امْرَأَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ أَنْ يَمْتَنِعَ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ فَيَمُوتَ، فَأَحْزَنَهَا ذَلِكَ، فَأُخْرِجَ إِلَى السُّوقِ وَمَجْمَعِ النَّاسِ تَرْجُو أَنْ تَجِدَ لَهُ ظِئْرًا يَأْخُذُ مِنْهَا، فَلَمْ يَقْبَلْ، فَأَصْبَحَتْ أُمُّ مُوسَى وَالِهَةً، فَقَالَتْ لِأُخْتِهِ: قُصِّيهِ: قُصِّي أَثَرَهُ وَاطْلُبِيهِ، هَلْ تَسْمَعِينَ لَهُ ذِكْرًا ؟ أَحَيٌّ ابْنِي أَمْ قَدْ أَكَلَتْهُ الدَّوَابُّ، وَنَسِيَتْ مَا كَانَ اللهُ وَعَدَهَا فِيهِ، فَبَصُرَتْ بِهِ أُخْتُهُ عَنْ جُنُبٍ وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ، وَالْجُنُبُ: أَنْ يَسْمُوَ بَصَرُ الْإِنْسَانِ إِلَى الشَّيْءِ الْبَعِيدِ وَهُوَ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ لَا يَشْعُرُ بِهِ، فَقَالَتْ مِنَ الْفَرَحِ حِينَ أَعْيَاهُمُ الظُّؤَارُ: أَنَا أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ يَكْفُلُونَهُ لَكُمْ وَهُمْ لَهُ نَاصِحُونَ، فَأَخَذُوهَا فَقَالُوا: مَا يُدْرِيكِ مَا نُصْحُهُمْ لَهُ ؟ هَلْ تَعْرِفُونَهُ ؟ حَتَّى شَكُّوا فِي ذَلِكَ وَذَلِكَ مِنَ الْفُتُونِ يَا ابْنَ جُبَيْرٍ، فَقَالَتْ: نَصِيحَتُهُمْ لَهُ، وَشَفَقَتُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ رَغْبَةً فِي صِهْرِ الْمَلِكِ، وَرَجَاءَ مَنْفَعَتِهِ، فَأَرْسَلُوهَا، فَانْطَلَقَتْ إِلَى أُمِّهَا فَأَخْبَرَتْهَا الْخَبَرَ، فَجَاءَتْ أُمُّهُ، فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْهُ فِي حَجْرِهَا نَزَا إِلَى ثَدْيِهَا فَمَصَّهُ حَتَّى امْتَلَأَ جَنْبَاهُ رِيًّا، وَانْطَلَقَ الْبَشِيرُ إِلَى امْرَأَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ يُبَشِّرُهَا أَنْ قَدْ وَجَدْنَا لِابْنِكِ ظِئْرًا، فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهَا، فَأُتِيَتْ بِهَا وَبِهِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ مَا يَصْنَعُ بِهَا، قَالَتْ لَهَا: امْكُثِي عِنْدِي تُرْضِعِينَ ابْنِي هَذَا، فَإِنِّي لَمْ أُحِبَّ حُبَّهُ شَيْئًا قَطُّ، فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ مُوسَى: لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَدَعَ بَيْتِي وَوَلَدِي فَنَضِيعُ، فَإِنْ طَابَتْ نَفْسُكِ أَنْ تُعْطِينِيهِ، فَأَذْهَبَ بِهِ إِلَى بَيْتِي، فَيَكُونَ مَعِي لَا آلُوهُ خَيْرًا، وَإِلَّا فَإِنِّي غَيْرُ تَارِكَةٍ بَيْتِي وَوَلَدِي، وَذَكَرَتْ أُمُّ مُوسَى مَا كَانَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَعَدَهَا، فَتَعَاسَرَتْ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَأَيْقَنَتْ أَنَّ اللهَ مُنْجِزٌ وَعْدَهُ، فَرَجَعَتْ إِلَى بَيْتِهَا بِابْنِهَا، فَأَصْبَحَ أَهْلُ الْقَرْيَةِ مُجْتَمِعِينَ يَمْتَنِعُونَ مِنَ السُّخْرَةِ وَالظُّلْمِ مَا كَانَ فِيهِمْ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا تَرَعْرَعَ، قَالَتِ امْرَأَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ لِأُمِّ مُوسَى: أُرِيدُ أَنْ تُرِينِي ابْنِي، فَوَعَدَتْهَا يَوْمًا تُرِيهَا إِيَّاهُ، فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ لِخُزَّانِهَا، وَقَهَارِمَتِهَا، وَظُئُورَتِهَا: لَا يَبْقَيَنَّ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا اسْتَقْبَلَ ابْنِي الْيَوْمَ بِهَدِيَّةٍ وَكَرَامَةٍ لِأَرَى ذَلِكَ فِيهِ، وَأَنَا بَاعِثَةٌ أَمِينًا يُحْصِي كُلَّ مَا يَصْنَعُ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْكُمْ، فَلَمْ تَزَلِ الْهَدَايَا،

وَأَعْجَبَهَا، وَبَجَّلَتْ أُمَّهُ بِحُسْنِ أَثَرِهَا عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: لَآتِيَنَّ بِهِ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَيُبَجِّلَنَّهُ، وَلَيُكْرِمَنَّهُ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَتْ بِهِ عَلَيْهِ جَعَلَتْهُ فِي حِجْرِهِ، فَتَنَاوَلَ مُوسَى لِحْيَةَ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَمَدَّهَا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ، فَقَالَ الْغُوَاةُ أَعْدَاءُ اللهِ لِفِرْعَوْنَ: أَلَا تَرَى إِلَى مَا وَعَدَ اللهُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ نَبِيَّهُ أَنَّهُ يَرُبُّكَ، وَيَعْلُوكَ، وَيَصْرَعُكَ ؟ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى الذَّبَّاحِينَ لِيَذْبَحُوهُ، وَذَلِكَ مِنَ الْفُتُونِ يَا ابْنَ جُبَيْرٍ بَعْدَ كُلِّ بَلَاءٍ ابْتُلِيَ، وَأَرْبِكْ بِهِ فُتُونًا، فَجَاءَتِ امْرَأَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ تَسْعَى إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ، فَقَالَتْ: مَا بَدَا لَكَ فِي هَذَا الْغُلَامِ الَّذِي وَهَبْتَهُ لِي ؟ قَالَ: تَرَيْنَهُ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ يَصْرَعُنِي وَيَعْلُونِي، قَالَتِ: اجْعَلْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ أَمْرًا تَعْرِفُ الْحَقَّ فِيهِ: ائْتِ بِجَمْرَتَيْنِ وَلُؤْلُؤَتَيْنِ فَقَرِّبْهُنَّ إِلَيْهِ، فَإِنْ بَطَشَ بِاللُّؤْلُؤَتَيْنِ وَاجْتَنَبَ الْجَمْرَتَيْنِ عَرَفْتَ أَنَّهُ يَعْقِلُ، وَإِنْ تَنَاوَلَ الْجَمْرَتَيْنِ وَلَمْ يُرِدِ اللُّؤْلُؤَتَيْنِ، عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ أَحَدًا لَا يُؤْثِرُ الْجَمْرَتَيْنِ عَلَى اللُّؤْلُؤَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ يَعْقِلُ، فَقَرَّبَ ذَلِكَ، فَتَنَاوَلَ الْجَمْرَتَيْنِ، فَانْتَزَعُوهُمَا مِنْ يَدِهِ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ تَحْرِقَاهُ، فَقَالَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ: أَلَا تَرَى ؟ فَصَرَفَهُ اللهُ عَنْهُ بَعْدَمَا كَانَ قَدْ هَمَّ بِهِ، وَكَانَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بَالِغًا فِيهِ أَمْرَهُ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ أَشُدَّهُ وَكَانَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ، لَمْ يَكُنْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَخْلُصُ إِلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ بِظُلْمٍ، وَلَا سُخْرَةٍ حَتَّى امْتَنَعُوا كُلَّ الِامْتِنَاعِ، فَبَيْنَمَا مُوسَى فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِذَا هُوَ بِرَجُلَيْنِ يَقْتَتِلَانِ أَحَدُهُمَا فِرْعَوْنِيٌّ وَالْآخَرُ إِسْرَائِيلِيٌّ، فَاسْتَغَاثَهُ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّ عَلَى الْفِرْعَوْنِيِّ، فَغَضِبَ مُوسَى غَضَبًا شَدِيدًا لِأَنَّهُ تَنَاوَلَهُ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُ مَنْزِلَةَ مُوسَى مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَحِفْظَهُ لَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُ النَّاسُ أَنَّمَا ذَلِكَ مِنَ الرَّضَاعِ، إِلَّا أُمُّ مُوسَى، إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ اللهُ أَطْلَعَ مُوسَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ عَلَى مَا لَمْ يُطْلِعْ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرَهُ، فَوَكَزَ مُوسَى الْفِرْعَوْنِيَّ فَقَتَلَهُ، وَلَيْسَ يَرَاهُمَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا اللهُ وَالْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّ، فَقَالَ مُوسَى حِينَ قَتَلَ الرَّجُلَ: هَذَا مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّيْطَانِ إِنَّهُ عَدُوٌّ مُضِلٌّ مُبِينٌ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: رَبِّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَغَفَرَ لَهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ وَأَصْبَحَ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ خَائِفًا يَتَرَقَّبُ الْأَخْبَارَ، فَأُتِيَ فِرْعَوْنُ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَتَلُوا رَجُلًا مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَخُذْ لَنَا حَقَّنَا، وَلَا تُرَخِّصْ لَهُمْ، فَقَالَ: ابْغُونِي قَاتِلَهُ وَمَنْ يَشْهَدُ عَلَيْهِ، فَإِنَّ الْمَلِكَ وَإِنْ كَانَ صَفْوُهُ مَعَ قَوْمٍ لَا يَسْتَقِيمُ لَهُ أَنْ يُقِيدَ بِغَيْرِ بَيِّنَةٍ وَلَا ثَبْتٍ، فَاطْلُبُوا لِي عِلْمَ ذَلِكَ آخُذْ لَكُمْ بِحَقِّكُمْ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَطُوفُونَ لَا يَجِدُونَ ثَبْتًا، إِذَا مُوسَى قَدْ رَأَى مِنَ الْغَدِ ذَلِكَ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيَّ يُقَاتِلُ رَجُلًا مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ آخَرَ، فَاسْتَغَاثَهُ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّ عَلَى الْفِرْعَوْنِيِّ، فَصَادَفَ مُوسَى قَدْ نَدِمَ عَلَى مَا كَانَ مِنْهُ، فَكَرِهَ الَّذِي رَأَى لِغَضَبِ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيِّ، وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَبْطِشَ بِالْفِرْعَوْنِيِّ، فَقَالَ لِلْإِسْرَائِيلِيِّ لِمَا فَعَلَ أَمْسِ وَالْيَوْمَ: إِنَّكَ لَغَوِيٌّ مُبِينٌ، فَنَظَرَ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّ إِلَى مُوسَى حِينَ قَالَ لَهُ مَا قَالَ، فَإِذَا هُوَ غَضْبَانُ كَغَضَبِهِ بِالْأَمْسِ، فَخَافَ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِيَّاهُ أَرَادَ، وَمَا أَرَادَ الْفِرْعَوْنِيَّ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ أَرَادَهُ إِنَّمَا أَرَادَ الْفِرْعَوْنِيَّ، فَخَافَ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّ، فَحَاجَزَ الْفِرْعَوْنِيَّ، وَقَالَ يَا مُوسَى أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تَقْتُلَنِي كَمَا قَتَلْتَ نَفْسًا بِالأَمْسِ وَإِنَّمَا قَالَ ذَلِكَ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِيَّاهُ أَرَادَ مُوسَى لِيَقْتُلَهُ، وَتَنَازَعَا وَتَطَاوَعَا، وَانْطَلَقَ الْفِرْعَوْنِيُّ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ فَأَخْبَرَهُمْ بِمَا سَمِعَ مِنَ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيِّ مِنَ الْخَبَرِ حِينَ يَقُولُ: أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تَقْتُلَنِي كَمَا قَتَلْتَ نَفْسًا بِالْأَمْسِ، فَأَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ الذَّبَّاحِينَ لِيَقْتُلُوا مُوسَى، فَأَخَذَ رُسُلُ فِرْعَوْنَ الطَّرِيقَ الْأَعْظَمَ يَمْشُونَ عَلَى هَيْئَتِهِمْ يَطْلُبُونَ لِمُوسَى، وَهُمْ لَا يَخَافُونَ أَنْ يَفُوتَهُمْ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ شِيعَةِ مُوسَى مِنْ أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ، فَاخْتَصَرَ طَرِيقًا قَرِيبًا حَتَّى يَسْبِقَهُمْ إِلَى مُوسَى فَأَخْبَرَهُ الْخَبَرَ، وَذَلِكَ مِنَ الْفُتُونِ يَا ابْنَ جُبَيْرٍ، فَخَرَجَ مُوسَى مُتَوَجِّهًا نَحْوَ مَدْيَنَ لَمْ يَلْقَ بَلَاءً قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ، وَلَيْسَ لَهُ بِالطَّرِيقِ عِلْمٌ إِلَّا حُسْنُ ظَنِّهِ بِرَبِّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، فَإِنَّهُ قَالَ: عَسَى رَبِّي أَنْ يَهْدِيَنِي سَوَاءَ السَّبِيلِ وَلَمَّا وَرَدَ مَاءَ مَدْيَنَ وَجَدَ عَلَيْهِ أُمَّةً مِنَ النَّاسِ يَسْقُونَ وَوَجَدَ مِنْ دُونِهِمُ امْرَأَتَيْنِ تَذُودَانِ يَعْنِي بِذَلِكَ: حَابِسَتَيْنِ غَنَمَهُمَا، فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: مَا خَطْبُكُمَا مُعْتَزِلَتَيْنِ لَا تَسْقِيَانِ مَعَ النَّاسِ ؟ قَالَتَا: لَيْسَ لَنَا قُوَّةٌ نُزَاحِمُ الْقَوْمَ، وَإِنَّمَا نَنْتَظِرُ فُضُولَ حِيَاضِهِمْ، فَسَقَى لَهُمَا، فَجَعَلَ يَغْرِفُ فِي الدَّلْوِ مَاءً كَثِيرًا حَتَّى كَانَ أَوَّلَ الرِّعَاءِ فَرَاغًا، فَانْصَرَفَتَا بِغَنَمِهِمَا إِلَى أَبِيهِمَا، وَانْصَرَفَ مُوسَى فَاسْتَظَلَّ بِشَجَرَةٍ، فَقَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي لِمَا أَنْـزَلْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ، فَاسْتَنْكَرَ أَبُوهُمَا سُرْعَةَ صُدُورِهِمَا بِغَنَمِهِمَا حُفَّلًا بِطَانًا، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ لَكُمَا الْيَوْمَ لَشَأْنًا، فَأَخْبَرَتَاهُ بِمَا صَنَعَ مُوسَى، فَأَمَرَ إِحْدَاهُمَا تَدْعُوهُ لَهُ، فَأَتَتْ مُوسَى فَدَعَتْهُ، فَلَمَّا كَلَّمَهُ قَالَ: لا تَخَفْ نَجَوْتَ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الظَّالِمِينَ، لَيْسَ لِفِرْعَوْنَ، وَلَا لِقَوْمِهِ عَلَيْنَا سُلْطَانٌ، وَلَسْنَا فِي مَمْلَكَتِهِ، قَالَ: قَالَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا يَا أَبَتِ اسْتَأْجِرْهُ إِنَّ خَيْرَ مَنِ اسْتَأْجَرْتَ الْقَوِيُّ الأَمِينُ، فَاحْتَمَلَتْهُ الْغَيْرَةُ عَلَى أَنْ قَالَ: وَمَا يُدْرِيكِ مَا قُوَّتُهُ، وَمَا أَمَانَتُهُ ؟ قَالَتْ: أَمَّا قُوَّتُهُ، فَمَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْهُ فِي الدَّلْوِ حِينَ سَقَى لَنَا، لَمْ أَرَ رَجُلًا أَقْوَى فِي ذَلِكَ السَّقْيِ مِنْهُ، وَأَمَّا أَمَانَتُهُ، فَإِنَّهُ نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ حِينَ أَقْبَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَشَخَصْتُ لَهُ، فَلَمَّا عَلِمَ أَنِّي امْرَأَةٌ صَوَّبَ رَأْسَهُ وَلَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ، وَلَمْ يَنْظُرْ إِلَيَّ حَتَّى بَلَّغْتُهُ رِسَالَتَكَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: امْشِي خَلْفِي، وَانْعَتِي لِيَ الطَّرِيقَ، فَلَمْ يَفْعَلْ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ إِلَّا وَهُوَ أَمِينٌ، فَسُرِّيَ عَنْ أَبِيهَا فَصَدَّقَهَا وَظَنَّ بِهِ الَّذِي قَالَتْ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: هَلْ لَكَ أَنْ أُنْكِحَكَ إِحْدَى ابْنَتَيَّ هَاتَيْنِ عَلَى أَنْ تَأْجُرَنِي ثَمَانِيَ حِجَجٍ فَإِنْ أَتْمَمْتَ عَشْرًا فَمِنْ عِنْدِكَ وَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَيْكَ سَتَجِدُنِي إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ، فَفَعَلَ فَكَانَتْ عَلَى نَبِيِّ اللهِ مُوسَى ﷺ ثَمَانُ سِنِينَ وَاجِبَةً، وَكَانَتْ سَنَتَانِ عِدَةً مِنْهُ، فَقَضَى اللهُ عَنْهُ عِدَتَهُ فَأَتَمَّهَا عَشْرًا، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ: فَلَقِيَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّصْرَانِيَّةِ مِنْ عُلَمَائِهِمْ، فَقَالَ: هَلْ تَدْرِي أَيَّ الْأَجَلَيْنِ قَضَى مُوسَى ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا، وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ لَا أَدْرِي، فَلَقِيتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ: أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ ثَمَانِيًا كَانَ عَلَى مُوسَى وَاجِبَةً وَلَمْ يَكُنْ نَبِيُّ اللهِ لِيَنْقُصَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا، وَيَعْلَمُ أَنَّ اللهَ قَاضٍ عَنْ مُوسَى عِدَتَهُ الَّتِي وَعَدَ، فَإِنَّهُ قَضَى عَشْرَ سِنِينَ، فَلَقِيتُ النَّصْرَانِيَّ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: الَّذِي سَأَلْتَهُ فَأَخْبَرَكَ أَعْلَمُ مِنْكَ بِذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: أَجَلْ، وَأَوْلَى، فَلَمَّا سَارَ مُوسَى بِأَهْلِهِ كَانَ مِنْ أَمْرِ النَّارِ، وَالْعَصَا، وَيَدِهِ مَا قَصَّ اللهُ عَلَيْكَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ، فَشَكَا إِلَى رَبِّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى مَا يَتَخَوَّفُ مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ فِي الْقَتْلِ، وَعَقْدِ لِسَانِهِ، فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي لِسَانِهِ عُقْدَةٌ تَمْنَعُهُ مِنْ كَثِيرٍ مِنَ الْكَلَامِ، وَسَأَلَ رَبَّهُ أَنْ يُعِينَهُ بِأَخِيهِ هَارُونَ يَكُونُ لَهُ رِدْءًا، وَيَتَكَلَّمُ عَنْهُ بِكَثِيرٍ مِمَّا لَا يُفْصِحُ بِهِ لِسَانُهُ، فَآتَاهُ اللهُ سُؤْلَهُ وَحَلَّ عُقْدَةً مِنْ لِسَانِهِ، فَأَوْحَى اللهُ إِلَى هَارُونَ، وَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَلْقَاهُ، فَانْدَفَعَ مُوسَى بِعَصَاهُ حَتَّى لَقِيَ هَارُونَ، فَانْطَلَقَا جَمِيعًا إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ، فَأَقَامَا عَلَى بَابِهِ حِينًا لَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمَا، ثُمَّ أُذِنَ لَهُمَا بَعْدَ حِجَابٍ شَدِيدٍ، فَقَالَا: إِنَّا رَسُولا رَبِّكَ، قَالَ فَمَنْ رَبُّكُمَا يَا مُوسَى، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِالَّذِي قَصَّ اللهُ عَلَيْكَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ، قَالَ: فَمَا تُرِيدُ، وَذَكَّرَهُ الْقَتِيلَ، فَاعْتَذَرَ بِمَا قَدْ سَمِعْتَ، وَقَالَ: إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ تُؤْمِنَ بِاللهِ وَتُرْسِلَ مَعِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَأَبَى عَلَيْهِ ذَلِكَ، وَقَالَ: ائْتِ بِآيَةٍ إِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ، فَأَلْقَى عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ حَيَّةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ فَاغِرَةٌ فَاهَا، مُسْرِعَةٌ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ، فَلَمَّا رَآهَا فِرْعَوْنُ قَاصِدَةً إِلَيْهِ خَافَهَا، فَاقْتَحَمَ عَنْ سَرِيرِهِ، وَاسْتَغَاثَ بِمُوسَى أَنْ يَكُفَّهَا عَنْهُ فَفَعَلَ، ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَ يَدَهُ مِنْ جَيْبِهِ فَرَآهَا بَيْضَاءَ مِنْ غَيْرِ سُوءٍ يَعْنِي مِنْ غَيْرِ بَرَصٍ، ثُمَّ رَدَّهَا فَعَادَتْ إِلَى لَوْنِهَا الْأَوَّلِ، فَاسْتَشَارَ الْمَلَأَ حَوْلَهُ فِيمَا رَأَى، فَقَالُوا لَهُ: إِنْ هَذَانِ لَسَاحِرَانِ يُرِيدَانِ أَنْ يُخْرِجَاكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِكُمْ بِسِحْرِهِمَا وَيَذْهَبَا بِطَرِيقَتِكُمُ الْمُثْلَى يَعْنِي مُلْكَهُمُ الَّذِي هُمْ فِيهِ وَالْعَيْشَ، فَأَبَوْا أَنْ يُعْطُوهُ شَيْئًا مِمَّا طَلَبَ، وَقَالُوا لَهُ: اجْمَعْ لَنَا السَّحَرَةَ، فَإِنَّهُمْ بِأَرْضِكَ كَثِيرٌ حَتَّى يَغْلِبَ سِحْرُهُمْ سِحْرَهُمَا، فَأَرْسَلَ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ، فَحُشِرَ لَهُ كُلَّ سَاحِرٍ مُتَعَالِمٍ، فَلَمَّا أَتَوْا فِرْعَوْنَ، قَالُوا: بِمَ يَعْمَلُ هَذَا السَّاحِرُ ؟ قَالُوا: يَعْمَلُ بِالْحَيَّاتِ، قَالُوا: فَلَا وَاللهِ مَا أَحَدٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ يَعْمَلُ السِّحْرَ بِالْحَيَّاتِ وَالْعِصِيِّ الَّذِي نَعْمَلُ، فَمَا أَجْرُنَا إِنْ نَحْنُ غَلَبْنَا ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: إِنَّكُمْ أَقَارِبِي وَخَاصَّتِي، فَأَنَا صَانِعٌ إِلَيْكُمْ كُلَّ مَا أَحْبَبْتُمْ، فَتَوَاعَدُوا يَوْمَ الزِّينَةِ وَأَنْ يُحْشَرَ النَّاسُ ضُحًى، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ
✧ Pharaoh and his courtiers discussed what God had promised Abraham, that He would make among his descendants prophets and kings. Some of them said: 'The Children of Israel are surely awaiting that, without any doubt. They had thought it would be Joseph son of Jacob, but when he died, they said: It is not so; God, Mighty and Majestic, promised Abraham.' Pharaoh said: 'What do you think about it?' They deliberated and agreed to send men with knives to go around among the Children of Israel and slaughter every newborn male they found. They did so. When they saw that the elders of the Children of Israel were dying of natural causes while the young were being slaughtered, they said: 'It is likely that you will wipe out the Children of Israel, and then you will have to undertake the labor they used to spare you. So kill every newborn male in one year, that their numbers may dwindle, and spare them in another year, so that the young may grow up in place of the elders who die. For they will not become numerous through those you let live to the point that you fear they will outnumber you, nor will they perish through those you kill to the point that you will need such killing.' So they agreed on that. The mother of Moses conceived Aaron in the year when boys were not slaughtered, and she gave birth to him openly and safely. The following year she conceived Moses, and anxiety and grief entered her heart—that is from the trials, O Ibn Jubayr—on account of what was intended for him. God, Blessed and Exalted, revealed to her: 'Fear not, nor grieve; indeed, We will return him to you and make him one of the messengers.' He commanded her, when she gave birth, to put him in a chest and cast it into the river. When she gave birth, she did that. When her son was hidden from her, Satan came to her, and she said to herself: 'What have I done with my son? Had he been slaughtered in my presence and I had buried him and shrouded him, that would have been dearer to me than casting him with my own hand into the waves of the sea and its fish.' The water carried him until it brought him to a landing place where the maidservants of Pharaoh's wife drew water. When they saw him, they took him, and they were about to open the chest, but one of them said: 'There is wealth in this, and if we open it, Pharaoh's wife will not believe us about what we found in it.' So they carried it as it was, without disturbing anything, until they delivered it to her. When she opened it, she saw a boy in it, and love for him was cast upon her such as she had never felt for any human being. The heart of Moses' mother became empty of remembrance of everything except remembrance of Moses. When the slaughterers heard of his affair, they came with their knives to Pharaoh's wife to slaughter him—that is from the trials, O Ibn Jubayr. She said to them: 'Leave him, for this one child will not increase the Children of Israel. Let me go to Pharaoh and ask him to give him to me. If he grants him to me, you will have done well and acted nobly, but if he orders him to be slaughtered, I will not blame you.' She took him to Pharaoh and said: 'He will be a comfort to me and to you.' Pharaoh said: 'He may be for you, but for me I have no need of that.'" The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "By the One in whose hand is my oath, had Pharaoh acknowledged that he would be a comfort to him as his wife acknowledged, God would have guided him by him just as He guided his wife. But He deprived him of that. So she sent to every woman around her who had milk to choose a wet nurse for him. But every time one of them took him to nurse him, he would not accept her breast, until Pharaoh's wife feared he would refuse milk and die, and that grieved her. He was taken out to the market and gathering place of the people in hope of finding a wet nurse he would accept, but he refused. The mother of Moses became distraught, and she said to his sister: 'Follow him; trace his tracks and seek him. Do you hear any mention of him? Is my son alive or have the beasts eaten him?'—and she forgot what God had promised her concerning him. His sister spotted him from afar while they were unaware. Al-junub means when a person's eyesight rises to something far off while it is beside him and he is unaware of it. She said out of joy when the wet nurses failed: 'Shall I direct you to a household who will nurse him for you and be sincere to him?' They took her and said: 'What makes you know of their sincerity to him? Do you know him?'—until they doubted that; and that is from the trials, O Ibn Jubayr. She said: 'Their sincerity toward him and their compassion for him stem from desire for a connection to the king and hope of benefit from him.' They sent her, and she went to her mother and told her the news. His mother came, and when she placed him in her lap, he sprang to her breast and suckled until his sides were full. The bearer of good news went to Pharaoh's wife to give her the glad tidings that they had found a wet nurse for her son. She sent for her, and she was brought with him. When she saw what he did with her, she said to her: 'Stay with me and nurse this son of mine, for I have never loved anything as I love him.' Moses' mother said: 'I cannot leave my house and my son, for we would be ruined. If you are content to give him to me, I will take him to my house and he will be with me, and I will spare no effort for his good. Otherwise, I will not leave my house and my son.' The mother of Moses remembered what God, Mighty and Majestic, had promised her, and she was reluctant with Pharaoh's wife, certain that God would fulfill His promise. She returned to her house with her son. The people of the village became united, refusing forced labor and injustice as long as he was among them. When he had grown a little, Pharaoh's wife said to Moses' mother: 'I want you to show me my son.' She promised her a day to show him to her. Pharaoh's wife said to her treasurers, stewards, and nurses: 'Let none of you remain unless he meets my son today with a gift and honor, so that I may see that in him. I am sending a trustworthy person to count everything each of you does.' The gifts, honors, and presents kept coming to him from the time he left his mother's house until he was brought before Pharaoh's wife. When he entered upon her, she honored him, showed him respect, rejoiced in him, and was delighted with him, and she honored his mother for her good influence upon him. Then she said: 'I will bring him to Pharaoh, and he will surely honor and respect him.' When she brought him to him and placed him in his lap, Moses grabbed Pharaoh's beard and pulled it down to the ground. The evildoers, enemies of God, said to Pharaoh: 'Do you not see what God promised Abraham His prophet: that he will rear you, and rise above you, and throw you down?' So Pharaoh sent for the slaughterers to slaughter him—and that is from the trials, O Ibn Jubayr, after every affliction he was tried with. 'And I will expose you to trials.' Pharaoh's wife came running to Pharaoh and said: 'What has changed your mind about this boy whom you gave me?' He said: 'Do you not see he claims he will throw me down and rise above me?' She said: 'Let us settle the matter between us in a way that will reveal the truth: bring two live coals and two pearls, and place them before him. If he seizes the pearls and avoids the coals, you will know he has understanding; but if he takes the coals and not the pearls, you will know that no one with understanding would prefer coals over pearls.' So he brought them near, and Moses took the coals, and they snatched them from his hand for fear they would burn him. The woman said: 'Do you see?' So God turned him away from him after he had intended to kill him, for God, Mighty and Majestic, was to accomplish His purpose through him. When Moses reached full strength and became a man, no one of Pharaoh's clan could wrong any Israelite or impose forced labor on him as long as Moses was with them, until they completely resisted. While Moses was in one part of the city, he came upon two men fighting: one was an Egyptian and the other an Israelite. The Israelite called for his help against the Egyptian. Moses became very angry because he had seized the Israelite, while knowing Moses' standing with the Children of Israel and his protection of them. People did not know that this was because of his having nursed them, except Moses' mother—unless God had informed Moses of what He had not informed others. Moses struck the Egyptian and killed him, and no one saw them except God and the Israelite. When Moses killed the man, he said: 'This is from the work of Satan; indeed, he is a clear misleading enemy.' Then he said: 'My Lord, I have wronged myself, so forgive me,' and He forgave him; indeed, He is the Forgiving, the Merciful. In the morning he was in the city, fearful and vigilant, awaiting news. Pharaoh was informed, and it was said to him: 'The Children of Israel have killed a man of Pharaoh's clan; take our due for us and do not be lenient with them.' He said: 'Find me his killer and someone who will testify against him. For a king, even if his favor is with a people, cannot rightly exact retribution without clear proof. Seek out knowledge of that for me, and I will obtain your right for you.' While they were searching and found no proof, the next day Moses saw that same Israelite fighting another man of Pharaoh's clan. The Israelite called for his help against the Egyptian. Moses, regretting what he had done before, disliked what he saw because of the Israelite's anger, while he intended to seize the Egyptian. He said to the Israelite about what he had done yesterday and today: 'You are clearly a misguided man.' The Israelite looked at Moses when he said what he said and saw him angry as he had been the day before, and he feared that Moses meant him and not the Egyptian. Moses had not meant him but the Egyptian. But the Israelite was afraid, and he restrained the Egyptian and said: 'O Moses, do you intend to kill me as you killed a soul yesterday?'—he said that only out of fear that Moses intended him, to kill him. They quarreled and fought, and the Egyptian went to his people and told them what he heard the Israelite say: 'Do you intend to kill me as you killed a soul yesterday?' Pharaoh sent the slaughterers to kill Moses. The messengers of Pharaoh took the main road, walking openly, seeking Moses, not fearing that he would escape. Then a man from Moses' own people came from the farthest part of the city and took a shortcut so as to reach Moses before them and tell him the news—and that is from the trials, O Ibn Jubayr. Moses left, heading toward Midian, having faced no affliction before that, and he had no knowledge of the way except his good opinion of his Lord, Mighty and Majestic, for he said: 'Perhaps my Lord will guide me to the right way.' When he arrived at the watering place of Midian, he found there a crowd of people watering their flocks, and he found apart from them two women keeping back their flocks. He said to them: 'What is your situation, that you stand apart and do not water with the people?' They said: 'We have no strength to compete with the men, and we wait for the surplus from their troughs.' So he watered for them, and he drew abundant water with the bucket until he was the first of the shepherds to finish. They returned with their flocks to their father, and Moses withdrew and sought shade under a tree and said: 'My Lord, indeed I am in need of whatever good You send down to me.' Their father found it strange that they returned so quickly with their flocks full and well-fed, and he said: 'You have had some business today.' They told him what Moses had done. He told one of them to call him. She came to Moses and called him. When he spoke to him, he said: 'Fear not; you have escaped from the wrongdoing people. Pharaoh and his people have no authority over us, and we are not in his kingdom.' One of the two women said: 'O my father, hire him; indeed, the best you can hire is the strong and trustworthy.' Jealousy prompted him to say: 'What do you know of his strength and trustworthiness?' She said: 'As for his strength, I saw what he did with the bucket when he watered for us; I have never seen a man stronger at drawing water. As for his trustworthiness, when I came to him and he looked at me and noticed me, when he realized I was a woman, he lowered his head and did not raise it or look at me until I delivered your message. Then he said: Walk behind me and describe the way to me. He would not have done this unless he were trustworthy.' Her father was relieved and believed her, and he thought of him as she had described. He said to him: 'Would you like me to marry you to one of these two daughters of mine on condition that you serve me for eight years? If you complete ten, that will be from you, and I do not wish to make it difficult for you. You will find me, God willing, among the righteous.' So it was done. Eight years were obligatory upon the Prophet of God Moses ﷺ, and two years were a promise from him. God fulfilled his promise for him, and he completed them as ten. Sa'id said: A man from the scholars of the Christians met me and said: 'Do you know which of the two terms Moses fulfilled?' I said: 'No,' and at that time I did not know. I met Ibn Abbas and mentioned that to him, and he said: 'Do you not know that eight years were obligatory upon Moses, and the Prophet of God would not have diminished anything from them, and he knew that God would fulfill the promise he had made? Indeed, he completed ten years.' I met the Christian and told him that, and he said: 'The one you asked and who told you is more knowledgeable than you about that?' I said: 'Yes, and more worthy.' When Moses traveled with his family, there was the matter of the fire, the staff, and his hand, as God has related to you in the Qur'an. He complained to his Lord, Blessed and Exalted, about his fear of Pharaoh's clan regarding killing and the knot in his tongue, for he had a knot in his tongue that prevented him from much speech. He asked his Lord to aid him with his brother Aaron, to be a support for him and speak on his behalf for much that his tongue could not articulate. God granted his request and untied a knot from his tongue. God revealed to Aaron and commanded him to meet Moses. Moses set out with his staff until he met Aaron, and they went together to Pharaoh. They stood at his gate for a while without being granted permission, then they were admitted after a long delay. They said: 'We are messengers of your Lord.' He said: 'Who is your Lord, O Moses?' Moses told him what God has related to you in the Qur'an. He said: 'What do you want?' And Moses reminded him of the slain man and excused himself as you have heard, and said: 'I want you to believe in God and send with me the Children of Israel.' He refused that and said: 'Bring a sign if you are truthful.' He threw down his staff, and it became a great serpent with gaping mouth, rushing toward Pharaoh. When Pharaoh saw it heading for him, he feared it and leaped from his throne and sought Moses' help to keep it from him, and he did. Then he drew out his hand from his bosom and it was white without any blemish, meaning without leprosy. Then he returned it and it reverted to its original color. He consulted the assembly around him about what he had seen. They said to him: 'These two are surely sorcerers who want to drive you out of your land with their magic and take away your exemplary way'—meaning their kingdom and the life they were living. They refused to give him anything he asked, and they said to him: 'Gather for us the sorcerers, for they are many in your land, so that their magic may overcome the magic of these two.' He sent throughout the city and gathered every accomplished sorcerer. When they came to Pharaoh, they said: 'What does this sorcerer work with?' They said: 'He works with serpents.' They said: 'By God, there is no one on earth who works magic with serpents and staffs as we do. What is our reward if we prevail?' He said to them: 'You are my kinsmen and my close associates, and I will give you whatever you desire.' They agreed on the Day of Adornment, and that the people should be assembled at forenoon. Sa'id said:"

Your necklace fell on the day of al-Abwa', so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained in the camp picking it up, and the people woke up without any water. Allah, Blessed and Exalted, revealed that they should perform tayammum with clean earth. That was because of you, the concession Allah revealed for this nation. Then Allah revealed your innocence from above seven heavens, so there is no mosque among the mosques of Allah in which Allah is mentioned except that your innocence is recited in it during the hours of the night and the hours of the day.' She said: 'Leave me, O Ibn Abbas, for by Allah, I wish I were a thing forgotten, utterly forgotten.'

Then he stood up a second time, and he said: 'Sit down.' Then he stood up the third time and said the same. He said: 'What is your prescribed punishment?'

Affan: 'Take him and flog him one hundred lashes.' The Laythi man had not been married. It was said: 'O Messenger of Allah, will you not flog the woman with whom he committed adultery?' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Bring him to me after he has been flogged.' When he was brought, the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Who is your partner?' He said: 'So-and-so, a woman from Banu Bakr.' He summoned her and asked her about that. She said: 'He has lied, by Allah, I do not know him, and I am innocent of what he said, Allah is witness to what I say.' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Who testified that you committed adultery with her? For she denies it. If you have witnesses, I will flog her with the prescribed punishment, otherwise we will flog you with the punishment for slander.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have no witnesses.' So he ordered and he was flogged with the punishment for slander, eighty lashes.

فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: الَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ الرِّبَا لا يَقُومُونَ إِلا كَمَا يَقُومُ الَّذِي يَتَخَبَّطُهُ الشَّيْطَانُ مِنَ الْمَسِّ، قَالَ: يُعْرَفُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِذَلِكَ، لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ الْقِيَامَ إِلَّا كَمَا يَقُومُ الْمَجْنُونُ الْمُخَنَّقُ، ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا إِنَّمَا الْبَيْعُ مِثْلُ الرِّبَا وَكَذَبُوا عَلَى اللهِ، وَأَحَلَّ اللهُ الْبَيْعَ وَحَرَّمَ الرِّبَا فَمَنْ جَاءَهُ مَوْعِظَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّهِ فَانْتَهَى إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: وَمَنْ عَادَ فَأَكَلَ الرِّبَا فَأُولَئِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ، وَقَوْلُهُ: يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللهَ وَذَرُوا مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الرِّبَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا فَأْذَنُوا بِحَرْبٍ مِنَ اللهِ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، فَبَلَغَنَا وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ نَزَلَتْ فِي بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عُمَيْرِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ مِنْ ثَقِيفَ، وَفِي بَنِي الْمُغِيرَةِ مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ، كَانَتْ بَنُو الْمُغِيرَةِ يُرْبُونَ لِثَقِيفَ، فَلَمَّا أَظْهَرَ اللهُ رَسُولَهُ عَلَى مَكَّةَ، وَضَعَ يَوْمَئِذٍ الرِّبَا كُلَّهُ، وَكَانَ أَهْلُ الطَّائِفِ قَدْ صَالَحُوا عَلَى أَنَّ لَهُمْ رِبَاهُمْ، وَمَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ رِبًا فَهُوَ مَوْضُوعٌ، وَكَتَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي آخِرِ صَحِيفَتِهِمْ: أَنَّ لَهُمْ مَا لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ، وَعَلَيْهِمْ مَا عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ، أَنْ لَا يَأْكُلُوا الرِّبَا وَلَا يُؤَاكِلُوهُ، فَأَتَاهُمْ بَنُو عَمْرِو بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، وَبَنُو الْمُغِيرَةِ إِلَى عَتَّابِ بْنِ أَسِيدٍ - وَهُوَ عَلَى مَكَّةَ - فَقَالَ بَنُو الْمُغِيرَةِ: مَا جَعَلَنَا أَشْقَى النَّاسِ بِالرِّبَا ؟ وُضِعَ عَنِ النَّاسِ غَيْرِنَا، فَقَالَ بَنُو عَمْرِو بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ: صُولِحْنَا عَلَى أَنَّ لَنَا رِبَانَا، فَكَتَبَ عَتَّابُ بْنُ أَسِيدٍ فِي ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: فَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا فَأْذَنُوا بِحَرْبٍ مِنَ اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ، فَعَرَفَ بَنُو عَمْرٍو أَنَّ الْإِيذَانَ لَهُمْ بِحَرْبٍ مِنَ اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ بِقَوْلِهِ: وَإِنْ تُبْتُمْ فَلَكُمْ رُءُوسُ أَمْوَالِكُمْ لا تَظْلِمُونَ وَلا تُظْلَمُونَ لا تَظْلِمُونَ فَتَأْخُذُونَ أَكْثَرَ، وَلا تُظْلَمُونَ فَتُبْخَسُونَ مِنْهُ، وَإِنْ كَانَ ذُو عُسْرَةٍ أَنْ تَذَرُوهُ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ، فَنَظِرَةٌ إِلَى مَيْسَرَةٍ وَأَنْ تَصَدَّقُوا خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ وَاتَّقُوا يَوْمًا تُرْجَعُونَ فِيهِ إِلَى اللهِ ثُمَّ تُوَفَّى كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لا يُظْلَمُونَ فَذَكَرُوا أَنَّ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ نَزَلَتْ، وَآخِرُ آيَةٍ مِنْ سُورَةِ النِّسَاءِ نَزَلَتَا آخِرَ الْقُرْآنِ
✧ Regarding His saying, mighty and glorious: “Those who consume riba do not stand except as one stands whom Satan has confounded by touch” (Q 2:275). He said: “They will be recognized on the Day of Resurrection by that; they will be unable to stand except as a madman being choked stands. That is because they said, ‘Trade is only like riba,’ and they lied against God. God made trade lawful and forbade riba. So whoever receives an admonition from his Lord and desists —” up to His saying: “— but whoever returns and consumes riba, those are the companions of the Fire, abiding eternally therein” (Q 2:275). And His saying: “O you who believe, fear God and give up what remains of riba, if you are believers. And if you do not, then be informed of war from God” (Q 2:278-279) to the end of the verse. It has reached us, and God knows best, that this verse was revealed concerning the Banu 'Amr b. 'Umayr b. 'Awf of Thaqif and the Banu al-Mughira of the Banu Makhzum. The Banu al-Mughira used to engage in riba with Thaqif. When God granted His Messenger victory over Makkah, he abolished all riba on that day. The people of al-Ta'if had made a treaty on the condition that they would keep their riba, but whatever riba was owed to them was declared void. The Messenger of God ﷺ wrote at the end of their treaty document: ‘They have what the Muslims have, and they owe what the Muslims owe: they are not to consume riba or be fed with it.’ Then the Banu 'Amr b. 'Umayr and the Banu al-Mughira came to 'Attab b. Asid — who was governor of Makkah — and the Banu al-Mughira said: ‘Why has He made us the most wretched of people regarding riba? It was abolished for everyone except us.’ The Banu 'Amr b. 'Umayr said: ‘We made a treaty on the condition that we would keep our riba.’ So 'Attab b. Asid wrote about that to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and this verse was revealed: ‘And if you do not, then be informed of war from God and His Messenger’ (Q 2:279). The Banu 'Amr recognized that the declaration of war from God and His Messenger was directed at them by His saying: ‘And if you repent, then you may have your principal; you do not wrong and you are not wronged. You do not wrong by taking more, and you are not wronged by being cheated out of it. And if someone is in difficulty, then deferring it is better for you, if you only knew. Then deferment until a time of ease; and that you give charity is better for you, if you only knew. And fear a day in which you will be returned to God; then every soul will be paid in full what it earned, and they will not be wronged’ (Q 2:279-281). They mentioned that this verse was revealed, and the last verse of Surat al-Nisa', as the last part of the Qur'an.”

كَانَ أَبُو لُؤْلُؤَةَ عَبْدًا لِلْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ وَكَانَ يَصْنَعُ الْأَرْحَاءَ، وَكَانَ الْمُغِيرَةُ يَسْتَغِلُّهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ أَرْبَعَةَ دَرَاهِمَ، فَلَقِيَ أَبُو لُؤْلُؤَةَ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنَّ الْمُغِيرَةَ قَدْ أَثْقَلَ عَلَيَّ غَلَّتِي فَكَلِّمْهُ يُخَفِّفْ عَنِّي، فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: اتَّقِ اللهَ وَأَحْسِنْ إِلَى مَوْلَاكَ، وَمِنْ نِيَّةِ عُمَرَ أَنْ يَلْقَى الْمُغِيرَةَ فَيُكَلِّمَهُ يُخَفِّفُ، فَغَضِبَ الْعَبْدُ وَقَالَ: وَسِعَ النَّاسَ كُلَّهُمْ عَدْلُهُ غَيْرِي، فَأَضْمَرَ عَلَى قَتْلِهِ فَاصْطَنَعَ خِنْجَرًا لَهُ رَأْسَانِ، وَشَحَذَهُ وَسَمَّهُ ثُمَّ أَتَى بِهِ الْهُرْمُزَانَ فَقَالَ كَيْفَ تَرَى هَذَا ؟ قَالَ: أَرَى أَنَّكَ لَا تَضْرِبُ بِهَذَا أَحَدًا إِلَّا قَتَلْتَهُ، قَالَ: فَتَحَيَّنَ أَبُو لُؤْلُؤَةَ فَجَاءَ فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ حَتَّى قَامَ وَرَاءَ عُمَرَ وَكَانَ عُمَرُ إِذَا أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَتَكَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: أَقِيمُوا صُفُوفَكُمْ كَمَا كَانَ يَقُولُ، فَلَمَّا كَبَّرَ وَجَأَهُ أَبُو لُؤْلُؤَةَ فِي كَتِفِهِ، وَوَجَأَهُ فِي خَاصِرَتِهِ، فَسَقَطَ عُمَرُ، وَطَعَنَ بِخِنْجَرِهِ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا، فَهَلَكَ مِنْهُمْ سَبْعَةٌ وَأُفْرِقَ مِنْهُمْ سِتَّةٌ، وَجَعَلَ عُمَرُ يُذْهَبُ بِهِ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ، وَصَاحَ النَّاسُ حَتَّى كَادَتْ تَطْلُعُ الشَّمْسُ، فَنَادَى عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ الصَّلَاةَ الصَّلَاةَ الصَّلَاةَ، قَالَ: وَفَزِعُوا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ، فَتَقَدَّمَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ بِأَقْصَرِ سُورَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ تَوَجَّهُوا إِلَى عُمَرَ، فَدَعَا بِشَرَابٍ لِيَنْظُرَ مَا قَدْرُ جُرْحِهِ، فَأُتِيَ بِنَبِيذٍ فَشَرِبَهُ فَخَرَجَ مِنْ جُرْحِهِ فَلَمْ يَدْرِ أَنَبِيذٌ هُوَ أَمْ دَمٌ، فَدَعَا بِلَبَنٍ فَشَرِبَهُ فَخَرَجَ مِنْ جُرْحِهِ، فَقَالُوا لَا بَأْسَ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، فَقَالَ إِنْ يَكُنْ لِلْقَتْلِ بَأْسٌ فَقَدْ قُتِلْتُ، فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يُثْنُونَ عَلَيْهِ يَقُولُونَ: جَزَاكَ اللهُ خَيْرًا يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، كُنْتَ وَكُنْتَ، ثُمَّ يَنْصَرِفُونَ وَيَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ آخَرُونَ فَيُثْنُونَ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: أَمَا وَاللهِ عَلَى مَا تَقُولُونَ وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي خَرَجْتُ مِنْهَا كَفَافًا لَا عَلَيَّ وَلَا لِيَ، وَأَنَّ صُحْبَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ سَلِمَتْ لِي، فَتَكَلَّمَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَكَانَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، وَكَانَ خَلِيطَهُ كَأَنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ، وَكَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَتَكَلَّمَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ وَاللهِ لَا تَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا كَفَافًا، لَقَدْ صَحِبْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَحِبْتَهُ خَيْرَ مَا صَحِبَهُ صَاحِبٌ، كُنْتَ لَهُ وَكُنْتَ لَهُ وَكُنْتَ لَهُ، حَتَّى قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَنْكَ رَاضٍ، ثُمَّ صَحِبْتَ خَلِيفَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، ثُمَّ وَلِيتَهَا يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنْتَ فَوَلِيتَهَا بِخَيْرِ مَا وَلِيَهَا وَالٍ؛ كُنْتَ تَفْعَلُ وَكُنْتَ تَفْعَلُ، فَكَانَ عُمَرُ يَسْتَرِيحُ إِلَى حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ كَرِّرْ عَلَيَّ حَدِيثَكَ، فَكَرَّرَ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَمَا وَاللهِ عَلَى مَا تَقُولُونَ لَوْ أَنَّ لِي طِلَاعَ الْأَرْضِ ذَهَبًا لَافْتَدَيْتُ بِهِ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ هَوْلِ الْمَطْلَعِ، قَدْ جَعَلْتُهَا شُورَى فِي سِتَّةٍ: فِي عُثْمَانَ وَعَلِيٍّ وَطَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ وَالزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ الْعَوَّامِ وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ وَسَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، وَجَعَلَ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ مَعَهُمْ مُشِيرًا وَلَيْسَ مِنْهُمْ، وَأَجَّلَهُمْ ثَلَاثًا، وَأَمَرَ صُهَيْبًا أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ
✧ Abu Lu'lu'ah was a slave of al-Mughirah b. Shu'bah. He used to make millstones, and al-Mughirah used to take from him four dirhams every day. Abu Lu'lu'ah met 'Umar and said: "O Commander of the Faithful, al-Mughirah has made my payment heavy on me. Speak to him to lighten it for me." 'Umar said to him: "Fear God and be good to your master." 'Umar intended to meet al-Mughirah and speak to him to lighten it. The slave became angry and said: "His justice has encompassed all the people except me." He resolved to kill him. He made a dagger with two heads, sharpened it, and poisoned it. Then he brought it to al-Hurmuzan and said: "What do you think of this?" He said: "I think that you would not strike anyone with this except that you would kill him." Abu Lu'lu'ah waited for the opportunity and came at the dawn prayer until he stood behind 'Umar. When the prayer was called, 'Umar would speak, saying: "Straighten your rows," as he used to say. When he said the takbir, Abu Lu'lu'ah stabbed him in his shoulder and stabbed him in his side. 'Umar fell, and he stabbed thirteen men with his dagger. Seven of them died and six recovered. 'Umar was taken to his home. The people shouted until the sun almost rose. 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Awf called out: "O people, the prayer, the prayer, the prayer." They rushed to prayer. 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Awf came forward and led them with the two shortest surahs of the Qur'an. When he finished the prayer, they went to 'Umar. He called for a drink to see the extent of his wound. Nabidh was brought and he drank it; it came out from his wound, and he did not know whether it was nabidh or blood. He called for milk and drank it; it came out from his wound. They said: "No harm upon you, O Commander of the Faithful." He said: "If there is harm in being killed, then I have been killed." The people began praising him, saying: "May God reward you well, O Commander of the Faithful. You did such and such." Then they would leave, and another group would come and praise him. 'Umar said: "By God, despite what you say, I wish that I had left it even, with nothing against me or for me, and that the companionship of the Messenger of God ﷺ is safe for me." 'Abd Allah b. 'Abbas spoke, and he was by his head. He was his close associate, as if he were from his family. Ibn 'Abbas used to recite the Qur'an. 'Abd Allah b. 'Abbas spoke and said: "By God, you will not leave it even. You accompanied the Messenger of God ﷺ and accompanied him in the best way a companion could. You were for him such and such, and such and such, until the Messenger of God ﷺ passed away while he was pleased with you. Then you accompanied the caliph of the Messenger of God ﷺ, then you took charge, O Commander of the Faithful. You took charge in the best way a ruler could: you did such and such, and such and such." 'Umar was comforted by Ibn 'Abbas's speech. 'Umar said: "O Ibn 'Abbas, repeat your speech for me." He repeated it. 'Umar said: "By God, despite what you say, if I had the fill of the earth of gold, I would ransom myself with it today from the terror of the place of rising. I have made it a consultation among six: 'Uthman, 'Ali, Talhah b. 'Ubayd Allah, al-Zubayr b. al-'Awwam, 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Awf, and Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas. He made 'Abd Allah b. 'Umar with them as an advisor, not one of them. He set a term of three days for them, and he ordered Suhayb to lead the people in prayer."

'Umar had offered us something of it that we considered less than our right, so we returned it to him and refused to accept it.
