Hadith 2267
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَهُمْ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي يَعْلَى بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، يَزِيدُ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ وَغَيْرُهُمَا ، قَالَ : قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ يُحَدِّثُهُ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ لِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ حَدَّثَنِي أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَانْطَلَقَا ، فَوَجَدَا جِدَارًا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَنْقَضَّ ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ : بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا ، وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَاسْتَقَامَ ، قَالَ يَعْلَى : حَسِبْتُ أَنْ سَعِيدًا ، قَالَ : فَمَسَحَهُ بِيَدِهِ فَاسْتَقَامَ ، لَوْ شِئْتَ لَاتَّخَذْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ : أَجْرًا نَأْكُلُهُ " .
Narrated Ubai bin Ka`b: Allah's Apostle said, "Both of them (Moses and Al-Khadir) proceeded on till they reached a wall which was about to fall." Sa`d said [?? or Sa`id], "(Al-Khadir pointed) with his hands (towards the wall) and then raised his hands and the wall became straightened up." Ya`la said, "I think Sa`id [?? or Sa`d] said, 'He (Khadir) passed his hand over it and it was straightened up." (Moses said to him), "if you had wanted, you could have taken wages for it." Sa`id [?? or Sa`d] said, "Wages with which to buy food . "
لِقَوْلِهِ: {إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُنْكِحَكَ إِحْدَى ابْنَتَيَّ هَاتَيْنِ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: {عَلَى مَا نَقُولُ وَكِيلٌ} يَأْجُرُ فُلاَنًا يُعْطِيهِ أَجْرًا، وَمِنْهُ فِي التَّعْزِيَةِ أَجَرَكَ اللَّهُ.
In Surah Al-Qasas, Allah the Exalted has stated (the saying of Shu‘ayb, peace be upon him) as follows: «إني أريد أن أنكحك إحدى ابنتى هاتين‏» "I wish to marry one of these two daughters of mine to you," up to the end of the verse «على ما نقول وكيل‏». Among the Arabs, the expression «يأجر فلانا» is used to mean that so-and-so gives him wages. From this same word, at the time of condolence, they say «أجرك الله‏.‏» (May Allah grant you its reward).
