حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُعَافَى، نَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى الْوَقَارُ قَالَ: قُرِئَ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، قَالَ الثَّوْرِيُّ: قَالَ مُجَالِدٌ: قَالَ أَبُو الْوَدَّاكِ: قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

قَالَ أَخِي مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ: يَا رَبِّ أَرِنِي الَّذِي كُنْتَ أَرَيْتَنِي فِي السَّفِينَةِ، فَأَوْحَى اللهُ إِلَيْهِ: يَا مُوسَى، إِنَّكَ سَتَرَاهُ، فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا حَتَّى أَتَاهُ الْخَضِرُ، وَهُوَ طَيِّبُ الرِّيحِ، حَسَنُ بَيَاضِ الثِّيَابِ، فَقَالَ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ، إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ وَرَحْمَةَ اللهِ. قَالَ مُوسَى: هُوَ السَّلَامُ، وَمِنْهُ السَّلَامُ، وَإِلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ الَّذِي لَا أُحْصِي نِعَمَهُ، وَلَا أَقْدِرُ عَلَى شُكْرِهِ إِلَّا بِمَعُونَتِهِ. ثُمَّ قَالَ مُوسَى: أُرِيدُ أَنْ تُوصِيَنِي بِوَصِيَّةٍ يَنْفَعُنِي اللهُ بِهَا بَعْدَكَ. فَقَالَ الْخَضِرُ: يَا طَالِبَ الْعِلْمِ، إِنَّ الْقَائِلَ أَقَلُّ مَلَالَةً مِنَ الْمُسْتَمِعِ، فَلَا تُمِلَّ جُلَسَاءَكَ إِذَا حَدَّثْتَهُمْ، وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّ قَلْبَكَ وِعَاءٌ، فَانْظُرْ مَاذَا تَحْشُو بِهِ وِعَاءَكَ، وَاعْزِفْ عَنِ الدُّنْيَا وَانْبِذْهَا وَرَاءَكَ، فَإِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ لَكَ بِدَارٍ، وَلَا لَكَ فِيهَا مَحَلُّ قَرَارٍ، وَإِنَّهَا جُعِلَتْ بُلْغَةً لِلْعِبَادِ، وَلِيَتَزَوَّدُوا مِنْهَا لِلْمَعَادِ، وَيَا مُوسَى، وَطِّنْ نَفْسَكَ عَلَى الصَّبْرِ تَلْقَ الْحِكَمَ، وَأَشْعِرْ قَلْبَكَ التَّقْوَى تَنَلِ الْعِلْمَ، وَرَضِّ نَفْسَكَ عَلَى الصَّبْرِ تَخْلُصْ مِنَ الْإِثْمِ، يَا مُوسَى، تَفَرَّغْ لِلْعِلْمِ إِنْ كُنْتَ تُرِيدُهُ، فَإِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ لِمَنْ يَفْرَغُ لَهُ، وَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِكْثَارًا بِالْمَنْطِقِ، مِهْدَارًا، إِنَّ كَثْرَةَ الْمَنْطِقِ تُشِينُ الْعُلَمَاءَ، وَتُبْدِي مَسَاوِئَ الْسُخَفَاءِ، وَلَكِنْ عَلَيْكَ بِذِي اقْتِصَادٍ، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنَ التَّوْفِيقِ وَالسَّدَادِ، وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْجُهَّالِ، وَاحْلُمْ عَنِ السُّفَهَاءِ، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ فَضْلُ الْحُكَمَاءِ، وَزَيْنُ الْعُلَمَاءِ. إِذَا شَتَمَكَ الْجَاهِلُ فَاسْكُتْ عَنْهُ سِلْمًا، وَجَانِبْهُ حَزْمًا، فَإِنَّ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ جَهْلِهِ عَلَيْكَ، وَشَتْمِهِ إِيَّاكَ أَكْثَرُ وَأَعْظَمُ. يَا ابْنَ عِمْرَانَ، أَلَا تَرَى أَنَّكَ أُوتِيتَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا، فَإِنَّ الِانْدِلَاثَ وَالتَّعَسُّفَ مِنَ الِاقْتِحَامِ وَالتَّكَلُّفِ، يَا ابْنَ عِمْرَانَ لَا تَفْتَحَنَّ بَابًا لَا تَدْرِي مَا غَلْقُهُ، وَلَا تَغْلِقَنَّ بَابًا لَا تَدْرِي مَا فَتْحُهُ، يَا ابْنَ عِمْرَانَ مَنْ لَا تَنْتَهِي مِنَ الدُّنْيَا نَهْمَتُهُ، وَلَا تَنْقَضِي مِنْهَا رَغْبَتُهُ، كَيْفَ يَكُونُ عَابِدًا ؟ مَنْ يَحْقِرُ حَالَهُ، وَيَتَّهِمُ اللهَ بِمَا قَضَى لَهُ، كَيْفَ يَكُونُ زَاهِدًا ؟ هَلْ يَكُفُّ عَنِ الشَّهَوَاتِ مَنْ قَدْ غَلَبَ عَلَيْهِ هَوَاهُ، وَيَنْفَعُهُ الْعِلْمُ وَالْجَهْلُ قَدْ حَوَاهُ ؟ لِأَنَّ سَفَرَهُ إِلَى آخِرَتِهِ وَهُوَ مُقْبِلٌ عَلَى دُنْيَاهُ. يَا مُوسَى تَعَلَّمْ مَا تَعَلَّمَنَّ لِتَعْمَلَ بِهِ، وَلَا تَعْلَمْهُ لِيُتَحَدَّثَ بِهِ، فَيَكُونَ عَلَيْكَ بَوْرُهُ، وَيَكُونَ لِغَيْرِكَ نُورُهُ، يَا مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ، اجْعَلِ الزُّهْدَ وَالتَّقْوَى لِبَاسَكَ، وَالْعِلْمَ وَالذِّكْرَ كَلَامَكَ، وَاسْتَكْثِرْ مِنَ الْحَسَنَاتِ، فَإِنَّكَ مُصِيبُ السَّيِّئَاتِ، وَزَعْزِعْ بِالْخَوْفِ قَلْبَكَ، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ يُرْضِي رَبَّكَ، وَاعْمَلْ خَيْرًا؛ فَإِنَّكَ لَا بُدَّ عَامِلٌ سِوَاهُ، قَدْ وُعِظْتَ إِنْ حَفِظْتَ، فَتَوَلَّى الْخَضِرُ، وَبَقِيَ مُوسَى حَزِينًا مَكْرُوبًا

✧ My brother Moses ﷺ said: 'O Lord, show me the one You showed me in the ship.' God revealed to him: 'O Moses, you will see him.' It was only a short time before al-Khidr came to him, fragrant of scent, with beautifully white garments. He said: 'Peace be upon you, O Moses son of Imran. Your Lord sends you greetings of peace and the mercy of God.' Moses said: 'He is the Peace, from Him is peace, and to Him returns peace. Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds, whose blessings I cannot count, and I am unable to thank Him except by His help.' Then Moses said: 'I want you to give me advice that God will benefit me with after you.' Al-Khidr said: 'O seeker of knowledge, the speaker is less weary than the listener, so do not bore your companions when you speak to them. Know that your heart is a vessel, so look at what you fill your vessel with. Turn away from this world and cast it behind you, for it is not a home for you, nor do you have a place of settlement in it. It is made as a provision for the servants, so that they may take from it provisions for the Hereafter. O Moses, accustom yourself to patience and you will attain wisdom. Clothe your heart with piety and you will obtain knowledge. Train yourself to patience and you will be free from sin. O Moses, devote yourself to knowledge if you want it, for knowledge is only for those who devote themselves to it. Do not be excessively talkative or verbose, for much talk disgraces scholars and exposes the faults of the foolish. But upon you is moderation, for that is part of success and right guidance. Turn away from the ignorant and forbear with the foolish, for that is the merit of the wise and the adornment of scholars. If an ignorant person insults you, remain silent before him with a peaceful attitude and avoid him with prudence, for what remains of his ignorance toward you and his insults to you is greater and more severe. O son of Imran, do you not see that you have been given only a little knowledge? For reckless plunging and straying come from impetuosity and affectation. O son of Imran, do not open a door whose closing you do not know, and do not close a door whose opening you do not know. O son of Imran, one whose desire for this world never ends and whose longing for it never ceases—how can he be a worshipper? One who belittles his own state and accuses God of what He has decreed for him—how can he be an ascetic? Can one whose passion has overcome him refrain from desires? Will knowledge benefit him while ignorance encompasses him? For his journey is to his Hereafter while he is turning toward his world. O Moses, learn what you learn in order to act upon it, and do not learn it merely to talk about it, lest it become a burden upon you and its light be for someone else. O Moses son of Imran, make asceticism and piety your clothing, and knowledge and remembrance your speech. Increase in good deeds, for you will certainly encounter evil deeds. Shake your heart with fear, for that pleases your Lord. Do good, for you must inevitably do something besides it. You have been admonished if you remember.' Then al-Khidr departed, and Moses remained sad and distressed.
