عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى فَلَمَّا تَجَلَّى رَبُّهُ لِلْجَبَلِ [سورة الأعراف: ١٤٣] قَالَ قَالَ هَكَذَا يَعْنِي أَنَّهُ أَخْرَجَ طَرَفَ الْخِنْصَرِ قَالَ أَبِي أَرَانَا مُعَاذٌ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ حُمَيْدٌ الطَّوِيلُ مَا تُرِيدُ إِلَى هَذَا يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ فَضَرَبَ صَدْرَهُ ضَرْبَةً شَدِيدَةً وَقَالَ مَنْ أَنْتَ يَا حُمَيْدُ وَمَا أَنْتَ يَا حُمَيْدُ يُحَدِّثُنِي بِهِ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَقُولُ أَنْتَ مَا تُرِيدُ إِلَيْهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding Allah Almighty’s statement {فَلَمَّا تَجَلّٰی رَبُّہُ لِلْجَبَلِ جَعَلَہٗدَکًّا} “…So when his Lord appeared to the mountain, He made it crumble to dust.” said: It happened just like that. At the same time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) showed the edge of his little finger. When Mu’adh showed us this gesture, Humaid the Tall said: O Abu Muhammad! What do you mean by this example? But Abu Muhammad struck Humaid hard on the chest and said: Humaid! Who are you? What are you, Humaid! Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated this to me from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and you ask, “What do you mean by this example?”
وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى فَلَمَّا تَجَلَّى رَبُّهُ لِلْجَبَلِ [سورة الأعراف: ١٤٣] قَالَ فَأَوْمَأَ بِخِنْصَرِهِ قَالَ فَسَاخَ
(Second chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) explained the statement of Allah Almighty {فَلَمَّا تَجَلَّی رَبُّہُ لِلْجَبَلِ} by pointing with his little finger, but (with just such a manifestation) the mountain sank into the earth.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The command of Allah the Exalted is: {وَلَمَّا جَاء َ مُوْسٰی لِمِیْقَاتِنَا وَکَلَّمَہ رَبُّہ قَالَ رَبِّ اَرِنِیْٓ اَنْظُرْ اِلَیْکَ قَالَ لَنْ تَرٰینِیْ وَلٰکِنِ انْظُرْ اِلَی الْجَبَلِ فَاِنِ اسْـتَقَرَّ مَکَانَہ فَسَوْفَ تَرٰینِیْ فَلَمَّا تَجَلّٰی رَبُّہ لِلْجَبَلِ جَعَلَہ دَکًّا وَّخَرَّ مُوْسٰی صَعِقًا فَلَمَّآ اَفَاقَ قَالَ سُبْحٰنَکَ تُبْتُ اِلَیْکَ وَاَنَا اَوَّلُ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ۔} … And when Musa came at the appointed time and his Lord spoke to him, he said, “O my Lord! Show Yourself to me so that I may look at You.” He (Allah) said, “You will never be able to see Me, but look at the mountain; if it remains firm in its place, then you will see Me.” So when his Lord manifested Himself to the mountain, He made it crumble to dust, and Musa fell down unconscious. Then when he regained consciousness, he said, “Glory be to You! I turn to You in repentance, and I am the first of the believers.”
From these ahadith, it is established that Allah the Exalted manifested Himself to the mountain only to the extent of the tip of a little finger, but even that the mountain could not bear and it was reduced to dust.
The fact that the mountain was reduced to dust is established from the Noble Qur’an. In this narration, the sinking of the mountain into the earth is mentioned, so it is possible that part of it was reduced to dust and part of it sank into the earth. (Abdullah Rafiq)
