Hadith 24180

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَت : رَخَّصَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَمْرٍ ، فَتَنَزَّهَ عَنْهُ نَاسٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَغَضِبَ حَتَّى بَانَ الْغَضَبُ فِي وَجْهِهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " مَا بَالُ قَوْمٍ يَرْغَبُونَ عَمَّا رُخِّصَ لِي فِيهِ ، فَوَاللَّهِ لَأَنَا أَعْلَمُهُمْ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، وَأَشَدُّهُمْ لَهُ خَشْيَةً " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once granted a concession in a certain matter, but some people refrained from accepting that concession. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to know of this, he became so angry that the signs of anger were visible on his blessed face. Then he said: "What is the matter with the people that they turn away from those things in which I have been granted concession? By Allah, I am the one who knows Allah the most among them and fears Him the most among them."
