Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 10944

عَنِ الْفَلَتَانِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ - قَالَ : كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ ، وَكَانَ إِذَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ دَامَ بَصَرُهُ ، مَفْتُوحَةً عَيْنَاهُ ، وَفَرَغَ سَمْعُهُ وَقَلْبُهُ لِمَا يَأْتِيهِ مِنَ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : فَكُنَّا نَعْرِفُ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ . قَالَ : فَقَالَ لِلْكَاتِبِ : " اكْتُبْ لَا يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُجَاهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ " . قَالَ : فَقَامَ الْأَعْمَى فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَا ذَنْبُنَا مَا نَزَّلَ اللَّهُ ؟ فَقُلْنَا لِلْأَعْمَى : إِنَّهُ يَنْزِلُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَخَافَ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ فِي أَمْرِهِ ، فَبَقِيَ قَائِمًا يَقُولُ : أَعُوذُ بِغَضَبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لِلْكَاتِبِ : اكْتُبْ ( غَيْرُ أُولِي الضَّرَرِ ) . رَوَاهُ أَبُو يَعْلَى وَالْبَزَّارُ بِنَحْوِهِ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ بِنَحْوِهِ ، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ : فَبَقِيَ قَائِمًا يَقُولُ : أَتُوبُ إِلَى اللَّهِ ، وَرِجَالُ أَبِي يَعْلَى ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna al-Faltan bin Asim (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: We were present with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when Allah Almighty sent down revelation upon him. When revelation came down upon him, his eyes would remain open and his hearing and attention would remain fixed on the command that had come from Allah Almighty. The narrator said: We would know from his state (that revelation was coming down upon him). The narrator said: Then he said to the scribe: "Write: 'Those of the believers who stay behind (that is, those who do not take part in jihad) and those who strive in the way of Allah are not equal.'" The narrator said: A blind man stood up and said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is our fault in what Allah Almighty has revealed?" We said to that blind man: "Revelation is coming down upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." That man feared that something might be revealed about him. He remained standing and kept saying: "I seek refuge from the anger of the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the scribe: "Write: '(Those who stay behind, that is, those who do not take part in jihad) other than those who are afflicted with some disability.'"
Abu Ya'la recorded it, and al-Bazzar recorded something similar. Al-Tabarani also recorded something similar, except that he narrated these words: "That man remained standing and kept saying: 'I repent to Allah Almighty.'" The narrators of Abu Ya'la are thiqat (trustworthy).
