حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْبَاهِلِيُّ الْمِصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ بَقِيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي غَنِيَّةَ، عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْأَحْمَسِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

كَانَ لِيَعْقُوبَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ أَخٌ مُؤَاخِي، فَقَالَ لَهُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ: يَا يَعْقُوبُ، مَا الَّذِي أَذْهَبَ بَصَرَكَ ؟ مَا الَّذِي قَوَّسَ ظَهْرَكَ، فَقَالَ: أَمَّا الَّذِي أَذْهَبَ بَصَرِي فَالْبُكَاءُ عَلَى يُوسُفَ، وَأَمَّا الَّذِي قَوَّسَ ظَهْرِي فَالْحُزْنُ عَلَى ابْنِي يَامِينَ، فَأَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، فَقَالَ: يَا يَعْقُوبُ، إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ، وَيَقُولُ لَكَ: أَمَا تَسْتَحِي أَنْ تَشْكُوَنِي إِلَى غَيْرِي ؟ فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ: إِنَّمَا أَشْكُو بَثِّي وَحُزْنِي إِلَى اللهِ، فَقَالَ جِبْرِيلُ: اللهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا تَشْكُو يَا يَعْقُوبُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ يَعْقُوبُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ: أَيْ رَبِّ، أَمَا تَرْحَمُ الشَّيْخَ الْكَبِيرَ، أَذْهَبْتَ بَصَرِي، وَقَوَّسْتَ ظَهْرِي، فَارْدُدْ عَلَيَّ رَيْحَانَتِي يُوسُفَ أَشُمُّهُ شَمَّةً قَبْلَ الْمَوْتِ، ثُمَّ اصْنَعْ بِي يَا رَبِّ مَا شِئْتَ، فَأَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: يَا يَعْقُوبُ، إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ، وَيَقُولُ لَكَ: أَبْشِرْ، وَلْيَفْرَحْ قَلْبُكَ، فَوَعِزَّتِي وَجَلَالِي لَوْ كَانَا مَيِّتَيْنِ لَنَشَرْتُهُمَا لَكَ، فَاصْنَعْ طَعَامًا لِلْمَسَاكِينِ؛ فَإِنَّ أَحَبَّ عِبَادِي إِلَيَّ الْمَسَاكِينُ، وَتَدْرِي لِمَ أَذْهَبْتُ بَصَرَكَ، وَقَوَّسْتُ ظَهْرَكَ، وَصَنَعَ إِخْوَةُ يُوسُفَ بِيُوسُفَ مَا صَنَعُوا ؟ لِأَنَّكُمْ ذَبَحْتُمْ شَاةً، فَأَتَاكُمْ فُلَانٌ الْمِسْكِينُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ فَلَمْ تُطْعِمُوهُ مِنْهَا، وَكَانَ يَعْقُوبُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِذَا أَرَادَ الْغَدَاءَ أَمَرَ مُنَادِيًا فَنَادَى: أَلَا مَنْ كَانَ صَائِمًا مِنَ الْمَسَاكِينِ فَلْيُفْطِرْ مَعَ يَعْقُوبَ

✧ Jacob ﷺ had a brotherly friend. One day he said to him: 'O Jacob, what took away your sight? What bent your back?' He said: 'As for what took away my sight, it was weeping over Joseph. As for what bent my back, it was grief over my son Benjamin.' Then Gabriel ﷺ came to him and said: 'O Jacob, Allah, Mighty and Majestic, sends you greetings of peace, and says to you: Are you not ashamed to complain of Me to other than Me?' Jacob said: 'I only complain of my anguish and grief to Allah.' Gabriel said: 'Allah knows best what you complain of, O Jacob.' Then Jacob ﷺ said: 'O Lord, will You not have mercy on an old man? You have taken away my sight and bent my back. Return to me my fragrant one, Joseph, that I may smell him one whiff before death. Then do with me, O Lord, what You will.' Then Gabriel ﷺ came to him and said: 'O Jacob, Allah, Mighty and Majestic, sends you greetings of peace, and says to you: Rejoice, and let your heart be glad. By My might and majesty, even if they were dead, I would raise them up for you. Make food for the poor, for the dearest of My servants to Me are the poor. Do you know why I took away your sight and bent your back, and why Joseph's brothers did what they did to Joseph? Because you slaughtered a sheep, and a certain poor man came to you while fasting, and you did not feed him from it.' After that, whenever Jacob wanted to eat, he would order a caller to announce: 'Is there any poor person fasting? Let him break his fast with Jacob.'
