حَدَّثَنَا مُنْذِرُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْجَارُودِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رضى الله عنه

قَالَ خَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خُطْبَةً مَا سَمِعْتُ مِثْلَهَا قَطُّ، قَالَ: «لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا أَعْلَمُ لَضَحِكْتُمْ قَلِيلاً وَلَبَكَيْتُمْ كَثِيرًا». قَالَ فَغَطَّى أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وُجُوهَهُمْ لَهُمْ خَنِينٌ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مَنْ أَبِي قَالَ فُلَانٌ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ «لَا تَسْأَلُوا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ إِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) delivered a sermon the like of which I had never heard before. He said, “If you but knew what I know then you would have laughed little and wept much.” On hearing that, the companions of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) covered their faces and the sound of their weeping was heard.

A man said, “Who is my father?” The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “So-and-so.” So this Verse was revealed: “Ask not about things which, if made plain to you, may cause you trouble.” (Al-Ma’idah 5:101).

আনাস (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেছেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এমন একটি খুতবা দিলেন যেমনটি আমি আর কখনো শুনিনি। তিনি বলেছেন, ‘‘আমি যা জানি তা যদি তোমরা জানতে তবে তোমরা হাসতে খুব কমই এবং অধিক অধিক করে কাঁদতে’’।

তিনি বলেন, সহাবায়ে কিরাম (রাঃ) নিজ নিজ চেহারা আবৃত করে গুনগুন করে কাঁদতে শুরু করলেন, এরপর এক ব্যক্তি (‘আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু হুযাইফাহ বা অন্য কেউ) বলল, আমার পিতা কে?

রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, ‘‘অমুক’’। তখন এই আয়াত অবতীর্ণ হল لَا تَسْأَلُوْا عَنْ أَشْيَآءَ إِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ এই হাদীসটি শু’বাহ থেকে নযর এবং রাওহ ইবনু ‘উবাদাহ বর্ণনা করেছেন। [৯৩; মুসলিম ৪৩/৩৭, হাঃ ২৩৫৯]

ہم سے منذر بن ولید بن عبدالرحمٰن جارودی نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے ہمارے والد نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے شعبہ نے بیان کیا، ان سے موسیٰ بن انس نے اور ان سے انس رضی اللہ عنہ نے بیان کیا کہ ایک مرتبہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے ایسا خطبہ دیا کہ میں نے ویسا خطبہ کبھی نہیں سنا تھا۔

آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا جو کچھ میں جانتا ہوں اگر تمہیں بھی معلوم ہوتا تو تم ہنستے کم اور روتے زیادہ۔ بیان کیا کہ پھر نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے صحابہ رضی اللہ عنہم نے اپنے چہرے چھپا لیے، باوجود ضبط کے ان کے رونے کی آواز سنائی دے رہی تھی۔

ایک صحابی نے اس موقع پر پوچھا: میرے والد کون ہیں؟ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ فلاں۔ اس پر یہ آیت نازل ہوئی «لا تسألوا عن أشياء إن تبد لكم تسؤكم‏» کہ ”ایسی باتیں مت پوچھو کہ اگر تم پر ظاہر کر دی جائیں تو تمہیں ناگوار گزریں۔“ اس کی روایت نضر اور روح بن عبادہ نے شعبہ سے کی ہے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Mundzir bin Al Walid bin 'Abdur Rahman Al Jarudi] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Bapakku] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dari [Musa bin Anas] dari [Anas radliallahu 'anhu] dia berkata; Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam berkhuthbah dengan khutbah yang belum pernah aku dengar sebelumnya, beliau berkata; "Seandainya kalian dapat mengetahui apa yang aku ketahui, maka kalian pasti akan sedikit tertawa dan banyak menangis.'

Anas berkata; Para sahabat Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam menutupi kepala mereka dan mereka pun terserang sakit sengau hidung.' Setelah itu, 'Ada seorang laki-laki bertanya; 'Siapakah ayah saya?

' Beliau menjawab: 'Ayahmu adalah si fulan.' Maka turunlah ayat yang berikut ini: Hai orang-orang yang beriman, janganlah kamu bertanya tentang segala sesuatu yang apabila dijelaskan kepadamu, maka hal itu akan memberatkanmu. (QS. Al Maa'idah: 101). Diriwayatkan oleh [An Nadlr] dan [Rauh bin Ubadah] dari [Syu'bah]

Enes'ten rivayet edildiği ne göre, o şöyle demiştir: Allah Resulü Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem bir hutbe okudu. O hutbe gibisini asla dinlemedim. Hutbede şöyle buyurmuştu: "Eğer benim bildiklerimi bilseydiniz az güler, çok ağlardınız." Bu söz üzerine Hz. Nebi'in ashabı elbiseleri ile yüzlerini örttüler ve hıçkıra hıçkıra ağlamaya başladılar.

Derken adamın biri çıkıp: "Benim babam kim?" diye sordu. Allah Resulü Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem "Falancadır," diyerek cevap verdi. Bunun üzerine şu ayet nazil oldu: "Ey iman edenler! Açıklandığında hoşunuza gitmeyecek şeyleri sormayın

What it means

The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was informed about something regarding his Companions, namely that they had been asking him too many questions, and he became upset and delivered a speech and said: Paradise and Hellfire were presented to me; I have never seen anything as good as what I saw today in Paradise, nor as evil as what I saw today in Hellfire.

If you had seen what I saw and knew what I knew from what I saw today and before, you would have felt great compassion, and your laughter would have been few and your crying would have been abundant.

Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: There was no day harder for his Companions than that day. They covered their heads, and there was a sound of weeping, with a nasal tone coming from their noses due to the intensity of their crying.

‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up and said: We are pleased with Allah as a Lord, with Islam as a religion, and with Muhammad as a Prophet. He said: Then that man stood up and said: Who is my father? He said: "Your father is so-and-so." Then the following verse was revealed: {O you who believe, do not ask about things which, if they are made known to you, would only cause you hardship.} [Surat al-Mā’idah: 101]

What it teaches

  • It is recommended to cry out of fear of Allah's punishment and not to laugh excessively, as it indicates heedlessness and a hard heart.
  • The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) were deeply affected by the sermon, and they were greatly fearful of Allah's punishment.
  • It is recommended to cover the face when weeping.
  • Al-Khattābi said: This Hadīth is about those who ask out of affectation or obstinacy in matters that are not necessary. As for those who ask due to necessity, such as a matter that one needs clarification on, there is no sin or blame upon it.
  • The encouragement to remain steadfast in obeying Allah, to avoid His disobedience, and not violate His boundaries.
  • It indicates the permissibility of anger during admonition and teaching.
