حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ هَارُونَ، نَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ رَاهَوَيْهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، نَا أَبِي قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْحَاقَ، يَقُولُ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ:
افْتُرِضَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يُقَاتِلَ الْوَاحِدُ عَشَرَةً، فَثَقُلَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَشَقَّ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَوَضَعَ عَنْهُمْ إِلَى أَنْ يُقَاتِلَ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَيْنِ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ فِي ذَلِكَ: إِنْ يَكُنْ مِنْكُمْ عِشْرُونَ صَابِرُونَ يَغْلِبُوا مِائَتَيْنِ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَاتِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: لَوْلا كِتَابٌ مِنَ اللهِ سَبَقَ لَمَسَّكُمْ فِيمَا أَخَذْتُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ، يَقُولُ: لَوْلَا أَنِّي لَا أُعَذِّبُ مَنْ عَصَانِي حَتَّى أَتَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِمَنْ فِي أَيْدِيكُمْ مِنَ الأَسْرَى الْآيَةَ، فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ: فِيَّ وَاللهِ نَزَلَتْ، حِينَ أَخْبَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بِإِسْلَامِي، وَسَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ يُحَاسِبَنِي بِالْعِشْرِينَ الْأُوقِيَّةَ الَّتِي أَخَذْتُ مَعِي، فَأَعْطَانِي بِهَا عِشْرِينَ عَبْدًا، كُلُّهُمْ تَاجَرَ بِمَالِي فِي يَدِهِ، مَعَ مَا أَرْجُو مِنْ مَغْفِرَةِ اللهِ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ.

✧ It was made obligatory upon them that one should fight ten, and that became heavy and hard for them, so it was reduced for them to a man fighting two. Then Allah sent down concerning that: “If there are among you twenty patient, they will overcome two hundred” to the end of the verses. Then He said: “Were it not for a prior decree from Allah, a great punishment would have touched you for what you took,” meaning: Were it not that I do not punish those who disobey Me until I have given them prior warning. Then He said: “O Prophet, say to those in your hands among the captives” – the verse. Al-ʿAbbās said, “It was revealed concerning me, by Allah, when I informed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ of my Islam and asked him to account me for the twenty ūqiyyahs that I had taken with me, and he gave me in return twenty slaves, each of them trading with my wealth in his hand, along with what I hope from the forgiveness of Allah, may His mention be exalted.”
