Chapter on the reason for its revelation and the virtue of Zayd ibn Arqam
Hadith 8797
عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَدِمَتْ عِيرٌ مَرَّةً الْمَدِينَةَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْطُبُ فَخَرَجَ النَّاسُ وَبَقِيَ اثْنَا عَشَرَ فَنَزَلَتْ وَإِذَا رَأَوْا تِجَارَةً أَوْ لَهْوًا انْفَضُّوا إِلَيْهَا [سورة الجمعة: ١١]
Narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both): Once a caravan of grain arrived in Madinah while the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was delivering a sermon. The people all went towards the caravan, and only twelve (12) men remained. At that time, this verse was revealed: {وَإِذَا رَأَ وْا تِجَارَۃً أَ وْ لَہْوًا انْفَضُّوا إِلَیْہَا} … And when they see a trade or amusement, they rush towards it and leave you standing.
