وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ
فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: لا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ آذَوْا مُوسَى فَبَرَّأَهُ اللهُ قَالَ: صَعِدَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ الْجَبَلَ فَمَاتَ هَارُونُ، فَقَالَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَنْتَ قَتَلْتَهُ ! وَكَانَ أَشَدَّ حُبًّا لَنَا مِنْكَ، وَأَلْيَنَ لَنَا مِنْكَ، فَآذَوْهُ بِذَلِكَ، فَأَمَرَ اللهُ تَعَالَى الْمَلَائِكَةَ فَحَمَلُوهُ حَتَّى مَرُّوا عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتَكَلَّمَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلَامُ بِمَوْتِهِ حَتَّى عَرَفَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ، فَانْطَلَقُوا بِهِ فَدَفَنُوهُ، فَلَمْ يَطَّلِعْ عَلَى قَبْرِهِ أَحَدٌ مِنْ خَلْقِ اللهِ تَعَالَى إِلَّا الرَّخَمُ؛ فَجَعَلَهُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَصَمَّ أَبْكَمَ

✧ Regarding His saying, Mighty and Majestic: 'Do not be like those who abused Musa, and Allah cleared him of what they said' — he said: Musa and Harun went up the mountain, and Harun died. The Children of Israel said: 'You killed him! He was more loving to us than you, and gentler to us than you.' So they abused him with that. Then Allah, Exalted is He, commanded the angels, and they carried him until they passed by the Children of Israel. The angels (peace be upon them) spoke of his death until the Children of Israel knew that he had died. Then they took him and buried him. No one of Allah's creation, Exalted is He, saw his grave except the vulture; so Allah, Mighty and Majestic, made it deaf and mute.
