عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ مَرَّ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ مَعَهُ غَنَمٌ لَهُ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالُوا مَا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ إِلَّا تَعَوُّذًا مِنْكُمْ فَعَمَدُوا إِلَيْهِ فَقَتَلُوهُ وَأَخَذُوا غَنَمَهُ فَأَتَوْا بِهَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَلَا تَقُولُوا لِمَنْ أَلْقَى إِلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامَ لَسْتَ مُؤْمِنًا تَبْتَغُونَ عَرَضَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا [سورة النساء: ٩٤] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, that a group of the noble Companions passed by a man from Banu Sulaym who had some goats with him. He greeted the Companions with salam, but the Companions said: "He is only saying salam to seek protection from you." They killed him and took possession of his goats. When they brought those goats to the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, Allah the Exalted revealed this verse: {وَلَا تَقُولُوْا لِمَنْ أَ لْقٰی إِلَیْکُمْ السَّلَامَ لَسْتَ مُؤْمِنًا تَبْتَغُونَ عَرَضَ الْحَیَاۃِ الدُّنْیَا} … And do not say to the one who offers you salam, "You are not a believer." You seek the goods of worldly life.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The complete verse is: {یَا أَ یُّہَا الَّذِینَ آمَنُوْا إِذَا ضَرَبْتُمْ فِی سَبِیلِ اللّٰہِ فَتَبَیَّنُوا وَلَا تَقُولُوْا لِمَنْ أَ لْقٰی إِلَیْکُمُ السَّلَامَ لَسْتَ مُؤْمِنًا تَبْتَغُونَ عَرَضَ الْحَیَاۃِ الدُّنْیَا فَعِنْدَ اللّٰہِ مَغَانِمُ کَثِیرَۃٌ کَذٰلِکَ کُنْتُمْ مِنْ قَبْلُ فَمَنَّ اللّٰہُ عَلَیْکُمْ، فَتَبَیَّنُوا إِنَّ اللّٰہَ کَانَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِیرًا} … O you who have believed! When you travel in the way of Allah, investigate thoroughly, and do not say to the one who offers you peace, “You are not a believer.” You seek the goods of worldly life, but with Allah are many spoils. You yourselves were like that before, then Allah bestowed His favor upon you. So investigate thoroughly; indeed, Allah is ever fully aware of what you do.
