٣٤٢٩٨ - حدثنا يحيى بن آدم قال: ثنا (عبيد) (١) اللَّه الأشجعي عن سفيان بن (سعيد) (٢) عن عثمان بن المغيرة الثقفي عن سالم بن أبي الجعد عن علي ابن علقمة الأنماري عن علي قال: لما نزلت (هذه الآية) (٣): ﴿يَاأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا نَاجَيْتُمُ الرَّسُولَ فَقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ نَجْوَاكُمْ صَدَقَةً﴾، قال: قال لي رسول اللَّه ﷺ: "ما (ترى!) (٤) دينار؟ " قلت: لا (يطيقونه) (٥)، قال: "فكم؟ " قلت: شعيرة، قال: ⦗٧٨⦘ "إنك لزهيد"، قال: فنزلت: ﴿أَأَشْفَقْتُمْ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ (يَدَيْ نَجْوَاكُمْ) (٦) صَدَقَاتٍ﴾، (الآية) (٧) قال: (فبه) (٨) (خفف) (٩) اللَّه عن هذه الأمة (١٠).
Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) bin Alqamah Anmari (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When this verse was revealed: O you who believe! When you wish to speak privately with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), then present some charity before your private conversation. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: What is your opinion? Is one dinar sufficient? I submitted: People do not have the means for that much. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Then how much should it be? I submitted: Let a small amount of barley be fixed. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, that is very little. Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: In the meantime, another verse was revealed: Translation: Are you afraid of presenting charity before your private conversation? (the verse continues). He (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Thus, because of me, Allah made it easy for this Ummah.
