حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ , حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ , عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ , عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ , عَنْ جَابِرٍ , قَالَ : لَمَّا رَجَعَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُهَاجِرَةُ الْبَحْرِ , قَالَ : " أَلَا تُحَدِّثُونِي بِأَعَاجِيبِ مَا رَأَيْتُمْ بِأَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ " , قَالَ فِتْيَةٌ مِنْهُمْ : بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , بَيْنَا نَحْنُ جُلُوسٌ مَرَّتْ بِنَا عَجُوزٌ مِنْ عَجَائِزِ رَهَابِينِهِمْ , تَحْمِلُ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا قُلَّةً مِنْ مَاءٍ , فَمَرَّتْ بِفَتًى مِنْهُمْ , فَجَعَلَ إِحْدَى يَدَيْهِ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهَا , ثُمَّ دَفَعَهَا , فَخَرَّتْ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهَا , فَانْكَسَرَتْ قُلَّتُهَا , فَلَمَّا ارْتَفَعَتْ , الْتَفَتَتْ إِلَيْهِ , فَقَالَتْ : سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُ , يَا غُدَرُ إِذَا وَضَعَ اللَّهُ الْكُرْسِيَّ , وَجَمَعَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَالْآخِرِينَ , وَتَكَلَّمَتِ الْأَيْدِي وَالْأَرْجُلُ بِمَا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ , فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُ كَيْفَ أَمْرِي وَأَمْرُكَ , عِنْدَهُ غَدًا , قَالَ : يَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " صَدَقَتْ صَدَقَتْ , كَيْفَ يُقَدِّسُ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً لَا يُؤْخَذُ لِضَعِيفِهِمْ مِنْ شَدِيدِهِمْ " .
´It was narrated that Jabir said:` “When the emigrants who had crossed the sea came back to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), he said: ‘Why don’t you tell me of the strange things that you saw in the land of Abyssinia?’ Some young men among them said: ‘Yes, O Messenger of Allah. While we were sitting, one of their elderly nuns came past, carrying a vessel of water on her head. She passed by some of their youth, one of whom placed his hand between her shoulders and pushed her. She fell on her knees and her vessel broke. When she stood up, she turned to him and said: “You will come to know, O traitor, that when Allah sets up the Footstool and gathers the first and the last, and hands and feet speak of what they used to earn, you will come to know your case and my case in His presence soon.’” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘She spoke the truth, she spoke the truth. How can Allah purify any people (of sin) when they do not support their weak from their strong?’”

Explanation & Benefits

Benefits and Issues:
➊
The oppressed Muslims of Makkah migrated to Abyssinia before migrating to Madinah al-Munawwarah.
The first group migrated in Rajab of the 5th year of Prophethood, and after that, in the following year, more people migrated to Abyssinia.
After the migration to Madinah, these individuals arrived in Madinah in groups at different times.
➋
The "emigrants of the sea" refers to those who migrated to Abyssinia, because these individuals crossed the Red Sea (Bahr al-Qulzum) to reach Abyssinia.
➌
The previous heavenly scriptures also contained mention of the Day of Judgment, Paradise, and Hellfire.
Although these books had been altered (tahrif) during the time of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam),
many correct matters still remained in them.
In the present-day Bible, this alteration is much greater, and correct things are rare and scarce.
➍
If a non-Muslim speaks the truth, it should also be affirmed.
➎
Any nation in which the weak are oppressed
becomes deserving of punishment from Allah.
➏
In order to be saved from Allah’s punishment, it is necessary that justice and fairness be established in society, and that the oppressor be given full punishment while helping the oppressed.
➐
In present-day non-Muslim societies, there are laws of such a kind that provide protection to the oppressor.
It is regrettable that in Muslim countries as well, these same oppressive laws are implemented, due to which oppression spreads and the oppressed are destroyed.

Takhrij:
«أخرجه ابن حبان (الموارد)، حديث:1554، 2584، وابن ماجه، الفتن، حديث:4010 بطوله، وحديث بريدة: أخرجه البزار، كشف الأستار:1 /235، 236، حديث:1596 وهو حديث حسن ، وحديث أبي سعيد الخدري: أخرجه ابن ماجه، الفتن، حديث:4011، وهو حديث حسن.»©Explanation:
It is stated in *Subul al-Salam* that what is meant here is that the community which does not grant justice to the weak against the strong, nor does it ensure that the weak receive their rightful due, then how can such a community be purified from sins? Therefore, it is obligatory (wajib) to assist the weak until they obtain their right from the strong.
