حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدٌ هُوَ ابْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ هُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي هِلَالٍ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ سَلَامٍ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ

إِنَّا لَنَجِدُ صِفَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ شَاهِدًا وَمُبَشِّرًا وَنَذِيرًا وَحِرْزًا لِلْأُمِّيِّينَ أَنْتَ عَبْدِي وَرَسُولِي سَمَّيْتُهُ الْمُتَوَكِّلَ لَيْسَ بِفَظٍّ وَلَا غَلِيظٍ وَلَا صَخَّابٍ بِالْأَسْوَاقِ وَلَا يَجْزِي بِالسَّيِّئَةِ مِثْلَهَا وَلَكِنْ يَعْفُو وَيَتَجَاوَزُ وَلَنْ أَقْبِضَهُ حَتَّى يُقِيمَ الْمِلَّةَ الْمُتَعَوِّجَةَ بِأَنْ يُشْهَدَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ نَفْتَحُ بِهِ أَعْيُنًا عُمْيًا وَآذَانًا صُمًّا وَقُلُوبًا غُلْفًا»

✧ “Indeed we find the description of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: ‘We have sent you as a witness, a bearer of good tidings, and a warner, and a protection for the unlettered. You are My servant and My messenger. I have named him the one who trusts. He is not harsh, nor coarse, nor loud in the markets. He does not repay evil with evil, but he pardons and overlooks. And I will not take him until he has straightened the crooked religion by bearing witness that there is no god but Allah. Through him We open blind eyes, deaf ears, and covered hearts.’”

Notes

  • قَالَ عَطَاءُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو وَاقِدٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ كَعْبًا يَقُولُ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ ابْنُ سَلَامٍ
