أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ حَسَّانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«لَمْ يَكْذِبْ إِبْرَاهِيمُ قَطُّ إِلَّا ثَلَاثًا اثْنَتَيْنِ فِي ذَاتِ اللَّهِ قَوْلُهُ {إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ} وَقَوْلُهُ {بَلْ فَعَلَهُ كَبِيرُهُمْ هَذَا} قَالَ وَمَرَّ عَلَى جَبَّارٍ مِنَ الْجَبَابِرَةِ وَمَعَهُ امْرَأَتُهُ سَارَةُ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ رَجُلًا هَاهُنَا مَعَهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ قَالَ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ فَأَتَاهُ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ هَذِهِ أُخْتِي قَالَ فَأَتَاهَا فَقَالَ لَهَا إِنَّ هَذَا قَدْ سَأَلَنِي عَنْكِ وَإِنِّي أَنْبَأْتُهُ أَنَّكِ أُخْتِي وَإِنَّكَ أُخْتِي فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَلَا تُكَذِّبِينِي قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَآهَا ذَهَبَ لِيَأْتِيَهَا فَدَعَتِ اللَّهَ فَأُخِذَ فَقَالَ ادْعِي اللَّهَ لِي وَلَكِ عَلَيَّ أَنْ لَا أَعُودَ فَدَعَتْ لَهُ ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ لِيَأْتِيَهَا فَدَعَتْ فَأُخِذَ أَخْذَةً هِيَ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الْأُولَى فَقَالَ ادْعِي اللَّهَ لِي وَلَكِ عَلَيَّ أَنْ لَا أَعُودَ فَدَعَتْ لَهُ فَذَهَبَ لِيَأْتِيَهَا فَدَعَتْ فَأُخِذَ أَخْذَةً هِيَ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الْأُولَيَيْنِ فَقَالَ ادْعِي اللَّهَ لِي وَلَكِ عَلَيَّ أَنْ لَا أَعُودَ فَدَعَتْ لَهُ فَأُرْسِلَ فَقَالَ لِأَدْنَى حَجَبَتِهِ عِنْدَهُ إِنَّكَ لَمْ تَأْتِنِي بِإِنْسَانٍ إِنَّمَا أَتَيْتَنِي بِشَيْطَانٍ وَأَخْدَمَهَا هَاجَرَ فَلَمَّا رَآهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ قَالَ مَهْيَمْ قَالَتْ كَفَى اللَّهُ كَيَدَ الْكَافِرِ الْفَاجِرِ وَأَخْدَمَهَا هَاجَرَ» قَالَ فَكَانَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ إِذَا حَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَالَ تِلْكَ أُمُّكُمْ يَا بَنِي مَاءِ السَّمَاءِ

✧ Abu Hurayrah said: «Ibrahim never lied except on three occasions: two were for the sake of Allah — His saying, {Indeed, I am ill} and His saying, {Rather, the largest of them did it}.» He said: «He passed by one of the tyrants, and with him was his wife Sarah. It was said to the tyrant: 'There is a man here with a woman among the most beautiful of people.' So he sent for him, and he came to him and entered upon him. He asked him, and he said: 'She is my sister.'» He said: «He came to her and said: 'This man asked me about you, and I told him that you are my sister. You are my sister in the Book of Allah, so do not contradict me.'» He said: «When he saw her, he went to assault her, so she called upon Allah and he was seized. He said: 'Call upon Allah for me, and I will not return.' So she called upon him, and he was released. Then he went to assault her, so she called upon Allah, and he was seized with a seizure more severe than the first. He said: 'Call upon Allah for me, and I will not return.' So she called upon him, and he was released. Then he went to assault her, so she called upon Allah, and he was seized with a seizure more severe than the first two. He said: 'Call upon Allah for me, and I will not return.' So she called upon him, and he was released. He said to the closest of his chamberlains: 'You have not brought me a human being; you have brought me a devil.' And he made Hajar serve her. When Ibrahim saw her, he said: 'What is the matter?' She said: 'Allah sufficed against the plot of the disbelieving, wicked one, and He has made Hajar serve me.'» Abu Hurayrah said: «When he narrated this hadith, he would say: 'That is your mother, O Banu Ma' al-Sama'.'»
