أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الصَّفَّارُ ثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {أَيَوَدُّ أَحَدُكُمْ
أَنْ تَكُونَ لَهُ جَنَّةٌ مِنْ نَخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَابٍ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ لَهُ فِيهَا مِنْ كُلِّ الثَّمَرَاتِ} [البقرة 266] إِلَى هَا هُنَا {فَأَصَابَهَا إِعْصَارٌ فِيهِ نَارٌ فَاحْتَرَقَتْ} [البقرة 266] فَسَأَلَ عَنْهَا الْقَوْمَ وَقَالَ فِيمَا تَرَوْنَ أَنَزَلَتْ {أَيَوَدُّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ تَكُونَ لَهُ جَنَّةٌ} [البقرة 266] ؟ فَقَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ فَغَضِبَ عُمَرُ وَقَالَ قُولُوا نَعْلَمُ أَوْ لَا نَعْلَمُ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فِي نَفْسِي شَيْءٌ مِنْهَا يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ «يَا ابْنَ أَخِي قُلْ وَلَا تَحْقِرْ نَفْسَكَ» قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ضُرِبَتْ مَثَلًا لِعَمَلٍ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ «لِرَجُلٍ غَنِيٍّ يَعْمَلُ بِالْحَسَنَاتِ ثُمَّ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ لَهُ الشَّيْطَانَ يَعْمَلُ بِالْمَعَاصِي حَتَّى أَغْرَقَ أَعْمَالَهُ كُلَّهَا وَكَانَتْ لَهُ جَنَّةٌ فَاحْتَرَقَتْ عِنْدَ أَحْوَجَ مَا كَانَ إِلَيْهَا حِينَ كَثُرَ الْوَلَدُ وَبَلَغَ هُوَ الْكِبَرَ» قَالَ «أَتَبْغِي أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يُوَافِيَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَبْدٌ أَفْقَرُ مَا كَانَ إِلَى عَمَلِهِ فَلَا يُوَافِيَ لَهُ شَيْءٌ»

✧ "Would any of you like to have a garden of date palms and grapevines, with rivers flowing beneath it, in which he has every kind of fruit?" [al-Baqarah 266] up to here: "Then a whirlwind with fire struck it and it was burned." [al-Baqarah 266] He asked the people about it and said: "In your opinion, was it revealed about 'Would any of you like to have a garden'?" They said: "Allah and His Messenger know best." 'Umar became angry and said: "Say: 'We know,' or 'We do not know.'" Ibn 'Abbas said: "I have something in my mind about it, O Commander of the Believers." He said: "O son of my brother, speak and do not belittle yourself." Ibn 'Abbas said: "It was struck as a parable for a deed." 'Umar said: "For a wealthy man who does good deeds, then Allah sends Satan to him and he commits sins until he drowns all his deeds. He had a garden, and it burned when he was most in need of it, when children were many and he had reached old age." He said: "Would any of you like to meet the Day of Resurrection as a servant most in need of his deed, with nothing to show for it?"
