أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَوْفٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ الْفَارِسِيُّ قَالَ قَالَ لَنَا ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ قُلْتُ لِعُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ §مَا حَمَلَكُمْ

أَنْ عَمَدْتُمْ إِلَى الْأَنْفَالِ وَهِيَ مِنَ الْمَثَانِي وَإِلَى بَرَاءَةَ وَهِيَ مِنَ الْمِئِينَ فَقَرَنْتُمْ بَيْنَهُمَا وَلَمْ تَكْتُبُوا سَطْرَ بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَوَضَعْتُمُوهَا فِي السَّبْعِ الطِّوَالِ فَمَا حَمَلَكُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ عُثْمَانُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الشَّيْءُ يَدْعُو بَعْضَ مَنْ يَكْتُبُ عِنْدَهُ فَيَقُولُ «ضَعُوا هَذِهِ فِي السُّورَةِ الَّتِي يُذْكَرُ فِيهَا كَذَا وَكَذَا وَتُنَزَّلُ عَلَيْهِ الْآيَاتُ» فَيَقُولُ «ضَعُوا هَذِهِ الْآيَاتِ فِي السُّورَةِ الَّتِي يُذْكَرُ فِيهَا كَذَا وَكَذَا وَكَانَتِ الْأَنْفَالُ مِنْ أَوَائِلِ مَا أُنْزِلَ وَبَرَاءَةٌ مِنْ آخِرِ الْقُرْآنِ وَكَانَتْ قِصَّتُهَا شَبِيهًا بِقِصَّتِهَا وَقُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَمْ يُبَيِّنْ لَنَا أَنَّهَا مِنْهَا فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهَا مِنْهَا فَمِنْ ثَمَّ قَرَنْتُ بَيْنَهُمَا وَلَمْ أَكْتُبْ بَيْنَهُمَا بِسَطْرِ بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ»

✧ Why did you take al-Anfal, which is one of the mathani, and Bara'ah, which is one of the mi'in, and join them together without writing the line 'Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim' between them, and you placed them among the seven long surahs? What led you to do that? 'Uthman said: When something was revealed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he would call one of those who wrote for him and say: 'Put this in the surah in which such and such is mentioned.' And when verses were revealed to him, he would say: 'Put these verses in the surah in which such and such is mentioned.' Al-Anfal was among the first of what was revealed in Madinah, and Bara'ah was among the last of the Qur'an, and its story was similar to its story, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away without making clear to us that it was part of it. So I thought it was part of it, and for that reason I joined them together and did not write the line 'Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim' between them.
