وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ هُوَ ابْنُ قُسَيْطٍ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ ؓ قَالَ:
نَزَلَ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ ضَيْفٌ، فَبَعَثَنِي إِلَى يَهُودِيٍّ، فَقَالَ: قُلْ لَهُ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَكَ: بِعْنَا أَوْ أَسْلِفْنَا إِلَى رَجَبٍ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ. فَقَالَ: وَاللهِ لَا أَبِيعُهُ وَلَا أُسْلِفُهُ إِلَّا بِرَهْنٍ. فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ ﷺ: أَمَا وَاللهِ إِنَّهُ لَوْ بَاعَنِي أَوْ أَسْلَفَنِي لَقَضَيْتُهُ، إِنِّي أَمِينٌ فِي السَّمَاءِ، أَمِينٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ، اذْهَبْ بِدِرْعِي الْحَدِيدِ. فَذَهَبْتُ بِهَا، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ تَعْزِيَةً لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ: وَلا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَى مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَاجًا مِنْهُمْ

✧ A guest came to the Prophet ﷺ, so he sent me to a Jew and said: 'Tell him: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ says to you: Sell to us or lend us until Rajab.' I told him, and he said: 'By Allah, I will not sell to him or lend him except with a pledge.' I returned to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him, and he ﷺ said: 'By Allah, if he had sold to me or lent me, I would have repaid him. I am trustworthy in heaven, trustworthy on earth. Go with my iron armor.' So I went with it, and this verse was revealed as consolation to the Prophet ﷺ: 'And do not extend your eyes toward what We have given to pairs of them to enjoy.'
