اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَلَمَةَ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ أُوتِيَ نَبِيُّكُمْ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَفَاتِيحَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ غَيْرَ الْخَمْسِ {إِنَّ اللَّهَ عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ السَّاعَةِ وَيُنَزِّلُ الْغَيْثَ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِي الْأَرْحَامِ وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ مَاذَا تَكْسِبُ غَدًا وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ بِأَيِّ أَرْضٍ تَمُوتُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ} [لقمان: 34] قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ خَمْسِينَ مَرَّةً
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: Your Prophet was given the keys to everything except five things. These five things are: {إِنَّ اللّٰہَ عِنْدَہُ عِلْمُ السَّاعَۃِ وَیُنَزِّلُ الْغَیْثَ وَیَعْلَمُ مَا فِی الْأَرْحَامِ وَمَا تَدْرِی نَفْسٌ مَاذَا تَکْسِبُ غَدًا وَمَا تَدْرِی نَفْسٌ بِأَیِّ أَرْضٍ تَمُوتُ، إِنَّ اللّٰہَ عَلِیمٌ خَبِیرٌ} … Knowledge of the Hour is with Allah alone, He sends down the rain, He knows what is in the wombs, no soul knows what it will earn tomorrow, and no person knows in which land he will die. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Surah Luqman: 24) Amr bin Murrah says: I asked my teacher Abdullah bin Salamah whether he had heard this hadith directly from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him)? He said: Yes, I have heard it more than fifty times.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The keys to everything were given to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Although these words are general, what is meant by them is that specific knowledge which was to be granted to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Otherwise, it would necessarily follow that the knowledge of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is infinite and that he possesses knowledge of the unseen (ghayb) as well, whereas the statement of Allah, the Exalted, is: {قُلْ لَّایَعْلَمُ مَنْ فِیْ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضِ الْغَیْبَ اِلَّا اللّٰہُ} … Whatever is in the heavens and the earth does not know the unseen, except Allah the Exalted.
