أَخْبَرَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ إِيَاسٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
سَأَلَ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ لَهُمُ الصَّفَا ذَهَبًا وَأَنْ يُنَحِّيَ عَنْهُمُ الْجِبَالَ فَيَزْدَرِعُوا قَالَ اللهُ ﷻ «إِنْ شِئْتَ آتَيْنَاهُمْ مَا سَأَلُوا فَإِنْ كَفَرُوا أُهْلِكُوا كَمَا أُهْلِكَ مَنْ قَبْلَهُمْ وَإِنْ شِئْتَ نَسْتَأْنِي بِهِمْ لَعَلَّنَا نَنْتِجُ مِنْهُمْ» فَقَالَ «بَلْ أَسْتَأْنِي بِهِمْ» فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَمَا مَنَعَنَا أَنْ نُرْسِلَ بِالْآيَاتِ إِلَّا أَنْ كَذَّبَ بِهَا الْأَوَّلُونَ وَآتَيْنَا ثَمُودَ النَّاقَةَ مُبْصِرَةً} [الإسراء 59]

✧ The people of Makkah asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to turn al-Safa into gold for them and to remove the mountains so they could cultivate. Allah, exalted is He, said: “If you wish, We will give them what they asked; but if they disbelieve, they will be destroyed as those before them were destroyed. If you wish, We will be patient with them, perhaps We will bring forth from them.” He said: “Rather, I will be patient with them.” Then Allah revealed this verse: {And nothing prevented Us from sending signs except that the former peoples denied them. And We gave Thamud the she-camel as a visible sign} [al-Isra: 59].
