Mention of some of the harm the Messenger of Allah ﷺ suffered from his people
[ ذِكْرُ مَا كَانَ يُؤْذِي بِهِ أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ ] وَأُمَيَّةُ بْنُ خَلَفِ بْنِ وَهْبِ بْنِ حُذَافَةَ بْنِ جُمَحٍ كَانَ إذَا رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ هَمَزَهُ وَلَمَزَهُ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِيهِ: وَيْلٌ لِكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُمَزَةٍ الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ كَلَّا لَيُنْبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ نَارُ اللَّهِ الْمُوقَدَةُ الَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْأَفْئِدَةِ إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِمْ مُؤْصَدَةٌ فِي عَمَدٍ مُمَدَّدَةٍ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ الْهُمَزَةُ: الَّذِي يَشْتُمُ الرَّجُلَ عَلَانِيَةً، وَيَكْسِرُ عَيْنَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ، وَيَغْمِزُ بِهِ. قَالَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ: : هَمَزْتُكَ فَاخْتَضَعْتُ لِذُلِّ نَفْسٍ بِقَافِيَةٍ تَأَجَّجُ كَالشُّوَاظِ وَهَذَا الْبَيْتُ فِي قَصِيدَةٍ لَهُ. وَجَمْعُهُ: هَمَزَاتٌ. وَاللُّمَزَةُ: الَّذِي يَعِيبُ النَّاسَ سِرًّا وَيُؤْذِيهِمْ. قَالَ رُؤْبَةُ بْنُ الْعَجَّاجِ. : فِي ظِلِّ عَصْرِي بَاطِلِي وَلَمْزِي وَهَذَا الْبَيْتُ فِي أُرْجُوزَةٍ لَهُ، وَجَمْعُهُ: لَمَزَاتٌ.
Translation
✧ [Mention of some of the harm with which Umayyah b. Khalaf used to afflict the Messenger of Allah ﷺ] Umayyah b. Khalaf b. Wahb b. Ḥudhāfah b. Jumaḥ, whenever he saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, would backbite him and criticize him. So Allah, Exalted be He, revealed concerning him: “Woe to every backbiter, criticizer, who gathers wealth and counts it, thinking that his wealth will make him immortal. No! He will surely be cast into the crushing Fire. And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is? It is the kindled Fire of Allah, which leaps up over the hearts. Indeed, it will be closed down upon them in extended columns.” Ibn Hishām said: al-humazah is the one who abuses a man openly, narrowing his eyes at him, and winking at him. Ḥassān b. Thābit said: : “I mocked you and you submitted to the humiliation of a soul, with a rhyme that blazes like a flame.” This verse is in an ode of his. Its plural is hamazāt. Al-lumazah is the one who finds fault with people in secret and harms them. Ruʾbah b. al-ʿAjjāj said: : “In the shade of my era are my falsehood and my faultfinding.” This verse is in a long rajaz poem of his, and its plural is lamazāt.
