حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ بِالْكُوفَةِ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الزُّهْرِيُّ ثنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ
أَنَّهُ تَلَا قَوْلَ اللَّهِ ﷻ {وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى مُوسَى أَنْ أَسْرِ بِعِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ مُتَّبَعُونَ} [الشعراء 52] الْآيَاتُ فَقَالَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ بْنُ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِأَعْرَابِيٍّ فَأَكْرَمَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «تَعَهَّدْنَا ائْتِنَا» فَأَتَاهُ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا حَاجَتُكَ؟» فَقَالَ نَاقَةٌ بِرَحْلِهَا وَيَحْلِبُ لَبَنَهَا أَهْلِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَجَزَ هَذَا أَنْ يَكُونَ كَعَجُوزِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ مَا عَجُوزُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ فَقَالَ إِنَّ مُوسَى حِينَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسِيرَ بِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ضَلَّ عَنْهُ الطَّرِيقُ فَقَالَ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مَا هَذَا؟ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُلَمَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِنَّ يُوسُفَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ حِينَ حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ أَخَذَ عَلَيْنَا مَوْثِقًا مِنَ اللَّهِ أَنْ لَا نُخْرِجَ مِنْ مِصْرَ حَتَّى تُنْقَلَ عِظَامُهُ مَعَنَا فَقَالَ مُوسَى أَيُّكُمْ يَدْرِي أَيْنَ قَبْرُ يُوسُفَ؟ فَقَالَ عُلَمَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مَا يَعْلَمُ أَحَدٌ مَكَانَ قَبْرِهِ إِلَّا عَجُوزٌ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا مُوسَى فَقَالَ دُلِّينَا عَلَى قَبْرِ يُوسُفَ قَالَتْ لَا وَاللَّهِ حَتَّى تُعْطِيَنِي حُكْمِي فَقَالَ لَهَا مَا حُكْمُكِ؟ قَالَتْ حُكْمِي أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَكَأَنَّهُ كَرِهَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ أَعْطِهَا حُكْمَهَا فَأَعْطَاهَا حُكْمَهَا فَانْطَلَقَتْ بِهِمْ إِلَى بُحَيْرَةٍ مُسْتَنْقِعَةٍ مَاءً فَقَالَتْ لَهُمُ أَنْضِبُوا هَذَا الْمَاءَ فَلَمَّا أَنْضَبُوا قَالَتْ لَهُمُ احْفِرُوا فَحَفَرُوا فَاسْتَخْرَجُوا عِظَامَ يُوسُفَ فَلَمَّا أَنْ أَقَلُّوهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ إِذِ الطَّرِيقُ مِثْلُ ضَوْءِ النَّهَارِ

✧ He recited the saying of Allah, may He be glorified: {And We revealed to Moses, “Travel by night with My servants; indeed, you will be pursued”} [al-Shu'ara' 52], the verses. Abu Burdah b. Abi Musa al-Ash'ari said from his father: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stopped with a Bedouin and honored him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, “Visit us; come to us.” The Bedouin came to him, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, “What is your need?” He said: A she-camel with her saddle, and my family milks her milk. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Is this one incapable of being like the old woman of the Children of Israel?” His companions said to him: What is the old woman of the Children of Israel, O Messenger of Allah? He said: When Moses wanted to travel with the Children of Israel, the road was lost to him. He said to the Children of Israel: What is this? The scholars of the Children of Israel said to him: Joseph ﷺ, when death came to him, took from us a covenant from Allah that we would not leave Egypt until his bones were carried with us. Moses said: Which of you knows where Joseph’s grave is? The scholars of the Children of Israel said: No one knows the location of his grave except an old woman of the Children of Israel. Moses sent for her and said: Show us the grave of Joseph. She said: No, by Allah, not until you grant me my reward. He said to her: What is your reward? She said: My reward is that I be with you in Paradise. It was as if he disliked that. It was said to him: Give her her reward. So he gave her her reward. She took them to a lake of stagnant water and said to them: Drain this water. When they drained it, she said to them: Dig. They dug and extracted Joseph’s bones. When they lifted them from the ground, behold, the road was like the light of day.
