Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37017 — The words of Luqman
٣٧٠١٧ - حدثنا عفان قال: حدثنا أبو عوانة قال: حدثنا حبيب بن أبي عمرة عن سعيد بن جبير عن ابن عباس قال: (لقد) (١) قال موسى ﵇ (٢): ﴿رَبِّ إِنِّي لِمَا أَنْزَلْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ﴾ [القصص: ٢٤] وهو أكرم خلقه عليه، ولقد كان افتقر إلى شق تمرة، ولقد أصابه الجوع حتى (لزق) (٣) بطنه (بظهره) (٤) (٥).
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Indeed Musa (peace be upon him) said: "O my Lord, indeed I am in need of whatever good You send down to me," even though he was, in the sight of Allah Almighty, the most honoured of His creation. And it is certain that he did not have even a small piece of a date. And hunger had brought him (peace be upon him) to such a state that his stomach had clung to his back.
