حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي الطَّاهِرِ بْنِ السَّرْحِ الْمِصْرِيُّ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ
{وَلَا يَأْتَلِ} يَعْنِي وَلَا يَحْلِفْ {أُولُو الْفَضْلِ مِنْكُمْ} يَعْنِي فِي الْغِنَى {وَالسَّعَةِ} فِي الرِّزْقِ يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ {وَلْيَعْفُوا وَلْيَصْفَحُوا} يَعْنِي وَيَتَجَاوَزُوا عَنْ مِسْطَحٍ {أَنْ يُؤْتُوا أُولِي الْقُرْبَى} مِسْطَحَ بْنَ أُثَاثَةَ فَإِنَّهُ قَرَابَةُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ابْنُ خَالَتِهِ لِأَنَّ مِسْطَحًا كَانَ فَقِيرًا {وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ} لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ {أَلَا تُحِبُّونَ} يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ {أَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللهُ لَكُمْ وَاللهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ} يَعْنِي غَفُورٌ لِلذُّنُوبِ رَحِيمٌ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ «أَمَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللهُ لَكَ؟» قَالَ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «فَاعْفُ وَاصْفَحْ» قَالَ قَدْ عَفَوْتُ وَصَفَحْتُ لَا أَمْنَعُهُ مَعْرُوفًا بَعْدَ الْيَوْمِ

"Do not compete" meaning do not swear oaths "the people of virtue among you" meaning in wealth "and abundance in provision" meaning Abu Bakr "and let them pardon and overlook" meaning and let them forgive someone who is well-regarded "to give to their near relatives" meaning the near relative Mas'adah ibn Uthatha, for he was a relative of Abu Bakr's maternal cousin because Mas'adah was poor "and to the emigrants in the cause of Allah" because he was one of the emigrants "Do you not love" meaning Abu Bakr "that Allah should forgive you? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful" meaning Forgiving of sins, Merciful towards the believers. So the Prophet ﷺ said to Abu Bakr, "Do you not love that Allah should forgive you?" Abu Bakr replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then pardon and overlook." Abu Bakr said, "I have pardoned and overlooked. I will not prevent him from good after today."
