Hadith 8453
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) عَنْ زِرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ لِي أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ كَأَيِّنْ تَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ الْأَحْزَابِ أَوْ كَأَيِّنْ تَعُدُّهَا قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ ثَلَاثًا وَسَبْعِينَ آيَةً فَقَالَ قَطُّ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهَا وَإِنَّهَا لَتُعَادِلُ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ وَلَقَدْ قَرَأْنَا فِيهَا الشَّيْخُ وَالشَّيْخَةُ إِذَا زَنَيَا فَارْجُمُوهُمَا الْبَتَّةَ نَكَالًا مِنَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ
. (Second chain) Zar says: Sayyiduna Ubayy ibn Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) asked me: How many verses of Surah Al-Ahzab do you recite? I said: Seventy-three verses. He said: That's all? I had seen this Surah when it was equal to Surah Al-Baqarah. We also used to recite this verse in it: "Al-shaykhu wa al-shaykhatu idha zanaya farjumuhuma al-battata nakalan min Allah, wallahu 'azizun hakim." ... When an old man and an old woman (that is, a married man and woman) commit adultery, then stone them both to death; this is a definite command and a punishment from Allah, and Allah is All-Knowing, Wise.
عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَمْ تَقْرَءُونَ سُورَةَ الْأَحْزَابِ قَالَ بِضْعًا وَسَبْعِينَ آيَةً قَالَ لَقَدْ قَرَأْتُهَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِثْلَ الْبَقَرَةِ أَوْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْهَا وَإِنَّ فِيهَا آيَةَ الرَّجْمِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him), he asked: How many verses do you count in Surah Al-Ahzab? I (Zirr bin Hubaysh) said: About seventy-six or seventy-seven verses. He said: I recited this Surah to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and it was as long as Surah Al-Baqarah or even longer, and it also contained the verse of stoning.

Hadith 8454
عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ الصَّلْتِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَ ابْنُ الْعَاصِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَكْتُبَانِ الْمَصَاحِفَ فَمَرُّوا عَلَى هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ فَقَالَ زَيْدٌ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ الشَّيْخُ وَالشَّيْخَةُ إِذَا زَنَيَا فَارْجُمُوهُمَا الْبَتَّةَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ لَمَّا أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ أَكْتِبْنِيهَا قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فَكَأَنَّهُ كَرِهَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَلَا تَرَى أَنَّ الشَّيْخَ إِذَا لَمْ يُحْصَنْ جُلِدَ وَأَنَّ الشَّابَّ إِذَا زَنَى وَقَدْ أُحْصِنَ رُجِمَ
Kathir bin Salt says: Sayyiduna Ibn ‘As (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) were writing the Mushaf. When they reached this verse, Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recite this verse as well: "Al-shaykhu wa al-shaykhatu idha zanaya farjumuhuma al-battah." Sayyiduna ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When this verse was revealed, I came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: Please have this verse written for me, but it seemed that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked this. Then Sayyiduna ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Do you not see that when an old man is not married, he is flogged for committing adultery, and when a married young man commits adultery, he is stoned?
Hadith 8455
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ لَقَدْ أُنْزِلَتْ آيَةُ الرَّجْمِ وَرَضَعَاتُ الْكَبِيرِ عَشْرًا فَكَانَتْ فِي وَرَقَةٍ تَحْتَ سَرِيرٍ فِي بَيْتِي فَلَمَّا اشْتَكَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَشَاغَلْنَا بِأَمْرِهِ وَدَخَلَتْ دُوَيْبَّةٌ لَنَا فَأَكَلَتْهَا
Umm al-Mu'minin Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The verse of stoning and the verse establishing fosterage by ten sucklings for an adult man were written on a paper and kept under my bed in my house. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fell ill and we became occupied with him, an animal entered and ate that paper.

عَنْ زِرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَيْكَ قَالَ فَقَرَأَ عَلَيَّ لَمْ يَكُنِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَالْمُشْرِكِينَ مُنْفَكِّينَ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْبَيِّنَةُ رَسُولٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ يَتْلُو صُحُفًا مُطَهَّرَةً فِيهَا كُتُبٌ قَيِّمَةٌ وَمَا تَفَرَّقَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ إِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَتْهُمُ الْبَيِّنَةُ إِنَّ الدِّينَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ الْحَنِيفِيَّةُ غَيْرُ الْمُشْرِكَةِ وَلَا الْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَلَا النَّصْرَانِيَّةِ وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ خَيْرًا فَلَنْ يُكْفَرَهُ [سورة البينة: ١-٦] قَالَ شُعْبَةُ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ آيَاتٍ بَعْدَهَا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَسَأَلَ وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ قَالَ ثُمَّ خَتَمَهَا بِمَا بَقِيَ مِنْهَا ¤ (8456م) (وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَيْكَ الْقُرْآنَ قَالَ فَقَرَأَ لَمْ يَكُنِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ [سورة البينة: ١] قَالَ فَقَرَأَ فِيهَا وَلَوْ أَنَّ ابْنَ آدَمَ سَأَلَ وَادِيًا مِنْ مَالٍ فَأُعْطِيَهُ لَسَأَلَ ثَانِيًا فَأُعْطِيَهُ لَسَأَلَ ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ وَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ الدِّينَ الْقَيِّمَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ الْحَنِيفِيَّةُ غَيْرُ الْمُشْرِكَةِ وَلَا الْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَلَا النَّصْرَانِيَّةِ وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ خَيْرًا فَلَنْ يُكْفَرَهُ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ آيَاتٍ بَعْدَهَا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ لَوْ أَنَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَيْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَسَأَلَ وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ قَالَ ثُمَّ خَتَمَهَا بِمَا بَقِيَ مِنْهَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: Allah Almighty has commanded me to recite the Noble Qur'an to you. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited Surah Al-Bayyina to me: {لَمْ یَکُنْ الَّذِینَ کَفَرُوْا مِنْ أَ ہْلِ الْکِتَابِ وَالْمُشْرِکِینَ مُنْفَکِّینَ حَتّٰی تَأْتِیَہُمُ الْبَیِّنَۃُ۔ رَسُولٌ مِنْ اللّٰہِ یَتْلُو صُحُفًا مُطَـہَّرَۃً۔ فِیہَا کُتُبٌ قَیِّمَۃٌ وَمَا تَفَرَّقَ الَّذِینَ أُوتُوا الْکِتَابَ إِلَّا مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَاء َتْہُمُ الْبَیِّنَۃُ۔ إِنَّ الدِّینَ عِنْدَ اللّٰہِ الْحَنِیفِیَّۃُ۔ غَیْرُ الْمُشْرِکَۃِ وَلَا الْیَہُودِیَّۃِ وَلَا النَّصْرَانِیَّۃِ۔ وَمَنْ یَفْعَلْ خَیْرًا فَلَنْ یُکْفَرَہُ} Shuba, the narrator, said: Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited more verses after that, then recited this verse: {لَوْ أَ نَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِیَیْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَسَأَ لَ وَادِیًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا یَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ} Then he completed it with the remaining part of the Surah.
(Second chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty has commanded me to recite the Noble Qur'an to you. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited Surah Al-Bayyina and also recited these verses in it: {وَلَوْ أَنَّ ابْنَ آدَمَ سَأَ لَ وَادِیًا مِنْ مَالٍ فَأُعْطِیَہُ لَسَأَ لَ ثَانِیًا فَأُعْطِیَہُ لَسَأَ لَ ثَالِثًا، وَلَا یَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ، وَیَتُوبُ اللّٰہُ عَلَی مَنْ تَابَ، وَإِنَّ ذَلِکَ الدِّینَ الْقَیِّمَ، عِنْدَ اللّٰہِ الْحَنِیفِیَّۃُ غَیْرُ الْمُشْرِکَۃِ وَلَا الْیَہُودِیَّۃِ وَلَا النَّصْرَانِیَّۃِ، وَمَنْ یَفْعَلْ خَیْرًا فَلَنْیُکْفَرَہُ} Shuba, the narrator, says: Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited more verses and then recited this verse: {لَوْ أَ نَّ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِیَیْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَسَأَ لَ وَادِیًا ثَالِثًا، وَلَا یَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ۔} Then he completed the rest of the Surah.

Hadith 8457
عَنْ أَبِي وَاقِدٍ اللَّيْثِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كُنَّا نَأْتِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ فَيُحَدِّثُنَا فَقَالَ لَنَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَالَ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَا الْمَالَ لِإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَلَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادٍ لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَيْهِ ثَانٍ وَلَوْ كَانَ لَهُ وَادِيَانِ لَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَيْهِمَا ثَالِثٌ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ
Sayyiduna Abu Waqqad Al-Laithi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that we used to come to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and whenever a command was revealed to him, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would explain it to us. One day, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us: Indeed, Allah Almighty has said: "Verily, We have sent down wealth for the establishment of prayer and the giving of zakat. If the son of Adam had a valley (full of wealth), he would love that there be a second one for him; and if he had two valleys, he would love that there be a third for him. Nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust. Then Allah accepts the repentance of whoever turns to Him in repentance." ... Indeed, We have sent down wealth for establishing prayer and giving zakat. If the son of Adam has one valley, he desires to have a second; if he has two valleys, he desires to have a third. In reality, nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust. Then Allah accepts the repentance of whoever turns to Him in repentance.
Hadith 8458
عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَقَدْ كُنَّا نَقْرَأُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَفِضَّةٍ لَابْتَغَى إِلَيْهِمَا آخَرَ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ بَطْنَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: In the blessed era of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), we used to recite these verses: {لَوْ کَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِیَانِ مِنْ ذَہَبٍ وَفِضَّۃٍ لَابْتَغٰی إِلَیْہِمَا آخَرَ۔ وَلَا یَمْلَأُ بَطْنَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ۔ وَیَتُوبُ اللّٰہُ عَلٰی مَنْ تَابَ} If the son of Adam possesses two valleys of gold and silver, he will seek a third one; nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust, and whoever turns to Allah in repentance, Allah accepts his repentance.
Hadith 8459
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَسْأَلُهُ فَجَعَلَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى رَأْسِهِ مَرَّةً وَإِلَى رِجْلَيْهِ أُخْرَى هَلْ يَرَى عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْبُؤْسِ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ كَمْ مَالُكَ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَقُلْتُ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ لَابْتَغَى الثَّالِثَ وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَيَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَنْ تَابَ قَالَ عُمَرُ مَا هَذَا فَقُلْتُ هَكَذَا أَقْرَأَنِيهَا أُبَيٌّ قَالَ فَمَرَّ بِنَا إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَجَاءَ إِلَى أُبَيٍّ فَقَالَ مَا يَقُولُ هَذَا قَالَ أُبَيٌّ هَكَذَا أَقْرَأَنِيهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَفَأُثْبِتُهَا فَأَثْبَتَهَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man came to Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked a question. You (may Allah be pleased with him) sometimes looked at his head and sometimes at his feet to see if there was any sign of poverty on him. Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: How much wealth do you have? He said: Forty camels. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Allah and His Messenger have spoken the truth: {لَوْ کَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِیَانِ مِنْ ذَہَبٍ لَابْتَغٰی الثَّالِثَ، وَلَا یَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ، وَیَتُوبُ اللّٰہُ عَلٰی مَنْ تَابَ} … If the son of Adam had two valleys of gold, he would seek a third; nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust, and whoever repents to Allah, Allah accepts his repentance. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: What is this? I said: Yes, Sayyiduna Ubayy (may Allah be pleased with him) taught me in this way. Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by us and went to Sayyiduna Ubayy (may Allah be pleased with him) and said to him: What does this Ibn Abbas say? He replied: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) taught me these verses in this way. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Then should I keep them as they are? So he kept them as they were.
Hadith 8460
عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ مَا وَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى سَرِيَّةٍ مَا وَجَدَ عَلَيْهِمْ كَانُوا يُسَمَّوْنَ الْقُرَّاءَ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ نَزَلَ فِيهِمْ بَلِّغُوا قَوْمَنَا عَنَّا أَنَّا قَدْ رَضِينَا وَرَضِيَ عَنَّا قِيلَ لِسُفْيَانَ فِيمَنْ نَزَلَتْ قَالَ فِي أَهْلِ بِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ ¤ (8460م) وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَيْضًا إِنَّا قَرَأْنَا بِهِمْ قُرْآنًا بَلِّغُوا عَنَّا قَوْمَنَا وَإِنَّا قَدْ لَقِينَا رَبَّنَا فَرَضِيَ عَنَّا وَأَرْضَانَا ثُمَّ رُفِعَ ذَلِكَ بَعْدُ وَقَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثُمَّ نُسِخَ
. Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was never as grieved as he was over the army of the reciters. Regarding them, these verses were revealed: {بَلِّغُوا قَوْمَنَا عَنَّا أَ نَّا قَدْ رَضِینَا وَرَضِیَ عَنَّا} … Convey this message to our people that we are pleased with Allah and He is pleased with us. Someone asked Sufyan: About whom were these verses revealed? He said: They were revealed about the people of Bi’r Ma‘unah.
. (Second chain) Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We used to recite in the Qur’an: {بَلِّغُوا عَنَّا قَوْمَنَا وَإِنَّا قَدْ لَقِینَا رَبَّنَا فَرَضِیَ عَنَّا وَأَ رْضَانَا} … Convey this message to our people from us that we have met our Lord, so He is pleased with us and He has made us pleased. Then these verses were abrogated.
. (Second chain) Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We used to recite in the Qur’an: {بَلِّغُوا عَنَّا قَوْمَنَا وَإِنَّا قَدْ لَقِینَا رَبَّنَا فَرَضِیَ عَنَّا وَأَ رْضَانَا} … Convey this message to our people from us that we have met our Lord, so He is pleased with us and He has made us pleased. Then these verses were abrogated.
Hadith 8461
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ قَالَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever speaks about the Noble Qur’an without knowledge, let him prepare his abode in the Hellfire.
Hadith 8462
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ هُوَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ مِنْهُ آيَاتٌ مُحْكَمَاتٌ هُنَّ أُمُّ الْكِتَابِ وَأُخَرُ مُتَشَابِهَاتٌ فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ زَيْغٌ فَيَتَّبِعُونَ مَا تَشَابَهَ مِنْهُ ابْتِغَاءَ الْفِتْنَةِ وَابْتِغَاءَ تَأْوِيلِهِ وَمَا يَعْلَمُ تَأْوِيلَهُ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَالرَّاسِخُونَ فِي الْعِلْمِ يَقُولُونَ آمَنَّا بِهِ كُلٌّ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَبِّنَا وَمَا يَذَّكَّرُ إِلَّا أُولُو الْأَلْبَابِ [سورة آل عمران: ٧] فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الَّذِينَ يُجَادِلُونَ فِيهِ فَهُمُ الَّذِينَ عَنَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَاحْذَرُوهُمْ
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited these verses: He it is Who has sent down to you the Book; in it are verses that are clear and precise—they are the foundation of the Book—and others are ambiguous. As for those in whose hearts is deviation, they follow that which is ambiguous from it, seeking discord and seeking its interpretation. But no one knows its interpretation except Allah. And those firm in knowledge say: "We believe in it; all is from our Lord." And none take heed except those of understanding. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you see those who argue about the Qur'an, they are the very people who cause discord, about whom Allah Almighty has said to beware of them.
