Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 985 — The Messenger of Allah ﷺ hosted a guest

حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ التُّسْتَرِيُّ، ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ قُسَيْطٍ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، قَالَ: أَضَافَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَيْفًا، فَلَمْ يَلْقَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا يُصْلِحُهُ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ يَقُولُ لَكَ مُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَسْلَفَنِي دَقِيقًا إِلَى هِلَالِ رَجَبٍ» قَالَ: لَا إِلَّا بِرَهْنٍ، فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: «أَمْ وَاللهِ، إِنِّي لَأَمِينٌ فِي السَّمَاءِ أَمِينٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ، وَلَوْ أَسْلَفَنِي، أَوْ بَاعَنِي لَأَدَّيْتُ إِلَيْهِ» فَلَمَّا خَرَجْتُ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {وَلَا تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَى مَا مَتَّعْنَا بِهِ أَزْوَاجًا مِنْهُمْ} [طه: ١٣١] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، لِأَنَّهُ يُعَزِّيهِ عَنِ الدُّنْيَا
Sayyiduna Abu Rafi' (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) hosted a guest, and nothing was found with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that would meet his need. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me to a man from among the Jews, saying: Tell him: Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) says: Lend me some flour until the new moon of Rajab. He said: No, except against a pledge. I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Allah, I am trustworthy in the heavens and trustworthy on the earth, and had he lent to me or sold to me, I would have paid him." When I left him (peace and blessings be upon him), this verse was revealed: "And do not extend your eyes towards that by which We have given enjoyment to various groups of them as the splendour of worldly life" [Surah Ta Ha: 131] to the end of the verse, because it was to console him (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the world.
