Mustadrak al-Hakim — Hadith 3320
اُردوEn
أخبرنا علي بن محمد بن عُقْبة الشَّيباني، حدثنا إبراهيم بن إسحاق الزُّهْري، حدثنا يحيى بن يعلى بن الحارث المُحارِبي، حدثنا أَبي، حدثنا غَيْلان بن جامع، عن عثمان أبي اليَقْظان الخُزاعي (2)، عن جعفر بن إياس، عن مجاهد، عن ابن عبَّاس قال: لما نزلت: ﴿وَالَّذِينَ يَكْنِزُونَ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ وَلَا يُنْفِقُونَهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ﴾ [التوبة: 34]، كَبُرَ ذلك على المسلمين وقالوا: ما يستطيع أحدُنا أن يتركَ مالًا لولده يبقى بعدَه، فقال عمر: أنا أُفرِّجُ عنكم، قال: فانطَلَقوا وانطلقَ عمرُ واتَّبعه ثوبانُ، فأَتَوْا رسولَ الله ﷺ فقال عمر: يا نبيَّ الله، قد كَبُرَ على أصحابك هذه الآيةُ، فقال نبي الله ﷺ: "إنَّ الله لم يَفرِضِ الزكاةَ إلَّا ليُطيِّبَ بها ما بقيَ من أموالكم، وإنما فَرَضَ المواريثَ في أموالٍ تبقى بعدَكم"، قال: فكَبَّر عمرُ، ثم قال له النبي ﷺ: "ألا أخبِرُك بخير ما يَكنِزُه المَرْءُ؟ المرأةُ الصالحة: إذا نَظَرَ إليها سَرَّتْه، وإذا أمرَها أطاعَتْه، وإذا غاب عنها حَفِظَتْه" (1).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when this verse was revealed: "And those who hoard gold and silver and do not spend it in the way of Allah" [Surah al-Tawbah: 34], it weighed very heavily upon the Muslims and they said: "None of us is able to leave wealth for his children that would remain after him (that is, they were distressed by the warning of punishment for hoarded wealth)." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I will relieve you of this worry." The narrator said: They all set off, and Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) followed behind Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). They came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Prophet of Allah, this verse has weighed heavily upon your Companions." The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah made zakah obligatory only to purify with it the rest of your wealth, and He made the laws of inheritance obligatory only for wealth that remains after you." The narrator said: At this Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said "Allahu Akbar" (with joy). Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Shall I not tell you of the best thing a person can store up as treasure? It is a righteous wife: when (her husband) looks at her she pleases him, when he gives her an instruction she obeys him, and when he is absent from her she guards him (his honour and property)."

(2) في أصول "المستدرك": عثمان بن القطان الخزاعي، وهو تحريف، ولذا التبس أمره على الذهبي فقال في "تلخيصه": لا أعرفه والخبر عجيب. قلنا: والصواب في اسمه هو: عثمان أبو اليقظان البجلي، ولعلَّ ما وقع في الأصول خطأ من النساخ، فإنَّ البيهقي قد روى هذا الحديث في "شعب الإيمان" (3035) و"السنن" 4/ 83 عن أبي عبد الله الحاكم فسمّاه كما أثبتنا، إلّا أنَّ الخزاعي في اسمه وهمٌ فيما يغلب على ظننا، فإنَّ كل من ترجم له لم ينسبه إلّا بجليًّا.
Note / Clarification: In the source manuscripts of "al-Mustadrak" it reads "Uthman bin al-Qattan al-Khuza'i", which is a corruption. For this reason al-Dhahabi was confused about him and said in his "Talkhis": "I do not know him, and the report is strange."
Important point: We say: The correct name of this narrator is "Uthman Abu al-Yaqzan al-Bajali". Perhaps what is in the manuscripts is a copyists' mistake, for al-Bayhaqi narrated this hadith in "Shu'ab al-Iman" (3035) and "al-Sunan" (4/ 83) from Abu Abdullah al-Hakim and named him as we have established. However, in our strong opinion "al-Khuza'i" in his name is an error, for everyone who wrote a biography of him attributed him only as "al-Bajali".
(1) إسناده ضعيف بمرَّة، عثمان أبو اليقظان -وهو عثمان بن عمير- متفق على ضعفه.
Grading: Its isnad is very weak; Uthman Abu al-Yaqzan - who is Uthman bin Umayr - is agreed to be da'if (weak).
وأخرجه البيهقي في "شعب الإيمان" (3035)، و"السنن" 4/ 83 عن أبي عبد الله الحاكم، بهذا الإسناد.

وقد سلف برقم (1503) من طريق ابن المديني عن يحيى بن يعلي، بإسقاط عثمان أبي اليقظان من إسناده، وهو خطأ في الرواية.
Reference / Source: It preceded at number (1503) by way of Ibn al-Madini from Yahya bin Ya'la, but with Uthman Abu al-Yaqzan dropped from its isnad, which is an error in the narration.
وقوله مرفوعًا في آخره في المرأة الصالحة حسنٌ لغيره، سلف التنبيه عليه في الموضع المشار إليه.
Grading: The marfu' part at its end about the righteous woman is "hasan li-ghayrihi" (hasan due to supporting reports); a note on it preceded at the place referred to.
