وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ الْبَرَاءَ يَقُولُ فِي هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ: " {لَا يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ} [النساء: 95]، {وَالْمُجَاهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ} [النساء: 95]، قَالَ: فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم زَيْدًا، فَجَاءَ بِكَتِفٍ، قَالَ: فَشَكَا ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ ضَرَارَتَهُ فَنَزَلَتْ {لَا يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ غَيْرُ أُولِي الضَّرَرِ} [النساء: 95]

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Bara' (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said concerning this verse, "Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home)" and "those who strive in the cause of Allah": "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) (to write down the revelation), so he brought a shoulder blade (to write on). Meanwhile Sayyiduna Ibn Umm Maktum (may Allah be pleased with him) complained of his disability, and (at this) this verse was revealed: 'Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), other than those who are disabled' meaning, 'Those of the believers who sit at home (without a valid excuse) and those who strive in the cause of Allah cannot be equal, except for those who are disabled.'"
