حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي الطَّاهِرِ بْنِ السَّرْحِ الْمِصْرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ

كَانَتْ يَهُودُ تَقُولُ إِنْ أُهْلِكَ لَهُمْ صَبِيٌّ صَغِيرٌ قَالُوا هُوَ صِدِّيقٌ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ كَذَبَتْ يَهُودُ مَا مِنْ نَسَمَةٍ يَخْلُقُهَا اللهُ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ شَقِيٌّ وَسَعِيدٌ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِكُمْ إِذْ أَنْشَأَكُمْ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ وَإِذْ أَنْتُمْ أَجَنَّةٌ فِي بُطُونِ أُمَّهَاتِكُمْ} الْآيَةَ كُلَّهَا

✧ The Jews used to say that if a small child of theirs died, they would say he is a truthful one (siddiq). That reached the Prophet ﷺ, so he said: "The Jews have lied. There is no soul that Allah creates in its mother's womb except that it is either wretched or blessed." So Allah ﷻ then revealed this verse: {He is most knowing of you when He produced you from the earth and when you were fetuses in the wombs of your mothers} – the entire verse.
