حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نُوحِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، نَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ، ثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ الْقَافْلَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَيُّوبُ السَّخْتِيَانِيُّ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

لَا تَفْتَخِرُوا بِآبَائِكُمُ الَّذِينَ مَاتُوا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، تَفْتَخِرُونَ بِهِمْ ؟ أَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ ؟ مَثَلُ آبَائِكُمُ الَّذِينَ مَاتُوا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ كَمَثَلِ مَلِكٍ بَنَى قَصْرًا عَلَى قَارِعَةِ الطَّرِيقِ، وَاتَّخَذَ فِيهِ طَعَامًا، وَوَكَّلَ بِهِ رِجَالًا، فَقَالَ: لَا يَمُرَّنَّ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا أَصَابَ مِنْ طَعَامِي هَذَا، فَكَانَ إِذَا مَرَّ الرَّجُلُ فِي شَارَةٍ حَسَنَةٍ، وَثِيَابٍ حَسَنَةٍ ذَهَبُوا إِلَيْهِ، فَتَعَلَّقُوا بِهِ، وَجَاءُوا بِهِ حَتَّى يَأْكُلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الطَّعَامِ، وَإِذَا جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فِي شَارَةٍ سَيِّئَةٍ، وَثِيَابٍ رَثَّةٍ، مَنَعُوهُ، فَلَمَّا طَالَ ذَلِكَ، بَعَثَ اللهُ مَلَكًا مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ فِي شَارَةٍ سَيِّئَةٍ، وَثِيَابٍ رَثَّةٍ، فَمَرَّ بِجَنَبَاتِهِمْ فَقَامُوا إِلَيْهِ فَدَفَعُوهُ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: إِنِّي جَائِعٌ، وَإِنَّمَا يُصْنَعُ الطَّعَامُ لِجَائِعٍ، فَقَالُوا: لَا، إِنَّ طَعَامَ الْمَلِكِ لَا يَأْكُلُهُ إِلَّا الْأَبْرَارُ، فَدَفَعُوهُ، فَانْطَلَقَ. فَجَاءَ فِي صُورَةٍ حَسَنَةٍ وَثِيَابٍ حَسَنَةٍ، فَمَرَّ كَأَنَّهُ لَا يُرِيدُهُمْ بَعِيدًا مِنْهُمْ، فَذَهَبُوا إِلَيْهِ، فَتَعَلَّقُوا بِهِ، فَقَالُوا: تَعَالَ، فَأَصِبْ مِنْ طَعَامِ الْمَلِكِ، قَالَ: لَا أُرِيدُهُ، قَالُوا: لَا نَدَعُكَ، الْمَلِكُ إِنْ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ مِثْلَكَ مَرَّ وَلَمْ يُصِبْ مِنْ طَعَامِهِ شَقَّ عَلَيْهِ، وَخَشِينَا أَنْ يُصِيبَنَا مِنْهُ عُقُوبَةٌ، فَأَكْرَهُوهُ، فَأَدْخَلُوهُ، حَتَّى جَاءُوا بِهِ إِلَى الطَّعَامِ فَقَرَّبُوا إِلَيْهِ الطَّعَامَ، فَقَالَ بِثِيَابِهِ هَكَذَا فِي الطَّعَامِ. فَقَالُوا: مَا تَصْنَعُ ؟ قَالَ: إِنِّي جِئْتُكُمْ فِي شَارَةٍ سَيِّئَةٍ، وَثِيَابٍ رَثَّةٍ، فَأَخْبَرْتُكُمْ أَنِّي جَائِعٌ، فَمَنَعْتُمُونِي، وَإِنِّي جِئْتُكُمْ فِي شَارَةٍ حَسَنَةٍ، وَثِيَابٍ حَسَنَةٍ، فَأَكْرَهْتُمُونِي، وَغَلَبْتُمُونِي، وَأَبَيْتُمْ أَنْ تَدَعُونِي، فَقَبَّحَكُمُ اللهُ، وَقَبَّحَ مَلِكَكُمْ، إِنَّمَا يَصْنَعُ مَلِكُكُمْ هَذَا الطَّعَامَ لِلدُّنْيَا، وَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ خَلَاقٌ، قَالَ: فَارْتَفَعَ الْمَلَكُ، وَنَزَلَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعَذَابُ

✧ Do not boast of your forefathers who died in the Jahiliyyah—do you boast of them? Shall I not tell you? The likeness of your forefathers who died in the Jahiliyyah is that of a king who built a palace on the main road, prepared food in it, and appointed men to it, saying: 'No one shall pass unless he partakes of this food of mine.' So when a man passed in fine appearance and fine clothes, they would go to him, cling to him, and bring him until he ate from that food. And when a man came in shabby appearance and worn clothes, they would prevent him. When that went on for a long time, Allah sent an angel from among the angels in shabby appearance and worn clothes, and he passed by their side. They rose to him and pushed him away. He said to them: 'I am hungry, and food is prepared only for the hungry.' They said: 'No, the king's food is eaten only by the righteous,' and they pushed him away, so he left. Then he came in a handsome form and fine clothes, and passed by as if he did not want them, at a distance from them. They went to him, clung to him, and said: 'Come, partake of the king's food.' He said: 'I do not want it.' They said: 'We will not leave you; if it reaches the king that someone like you passed and did not partake of his food, it would be hard on him, and we fear that punishment from him might befall us.' So they compelled him and brought him in until they came with him to the food and brought the food near to him. Then he did thus with his clothes in the food. They said: 'What are you doing?' He said: 'I came to you in shabby appearance and worn clothes, and I told you that I was hungry, but you prevented me. And I came to you in fine appearance and fine clothes, and you compelled me and overcame me and refused to leave me. May Allah disfigure you and disfigure your king! Your king prepares this food only for this world, and he has no share with Allah.' He said: Then the angel ascended, and punishment descended upon them.
