Hadith 2794
حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : بَيْنَمَا أَنَا أَمْشِي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَرْثٍ وَهُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى عَسِيبٍ ، " إِذْ مَرَّ بِنَفَرٍ مِنْ الْيَهُودِ ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ : سَلُوهُ عَنِ الرُّوحِ ، فَقَالُوا : مَا رَابَكُمْ إِلَيْهِ لَا يَسْتَقْبِلُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ تَكْرَهُونَهُ ، فَقَالُوا : سَلُوهُ ، فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ بَعْضُهُمْ ، فَسَأَلَهُ عَنِ الرُّوحِ ، قَالَ : فَأَسْكَتَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا ، فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ يُوحَى إِلَيْهِ ، قَالَ : فَقُمْتُ مَكَانِي فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ الْوَحْيُ ، قَالَ : وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الرُّوحِ قُلِ الرُّوحُ مِنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّي وَمَا أُوتِيتُمْ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ إِلا قَلِيلا سورة الإسراء آية 85 " ،
'Abdullah (b. Mas'ud) reported: As I was going along with Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) in a cultivable land and he (the Holy Prophet) was walking with the support of a wood, a group of Jews happened to meet him. Some of them said to the others: Ask him about the Soul. They said: What is your doubt about it? There is a possibility that you may ask him about anything (the answer of) which you may not like. They said: Ask him. So one amongst them asked him about the Soul. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) kept quiet and he gave no reply and I came to know that revelation was being sent to him, so I stood at my place and thus this revelation descended upon him: "They ask thee 'about Soul. Say: The Soul is by the Commandment of my Lord, and of Knowledge you are given but a little" (xvii. 58).

'Abdullah reported: I was walking along with Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) in a field of Madinah. The rest of the hadith is the same, but there is a slight variation of wording.
