أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُ ، أَنَّ رَجُلا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ اللَّيْلَةَ فِي الْمَنَامِ ظُلَّةً تَنْطِفُ السَّمْنَ وَالْعَسَلَ ، وَالنَّاسُ يَتَكَفَّفُونَ مِنْهَا بِأَيْدِيهُمْ ، فَالْمُسْتَكْثِرُ وَالْمُسْتَقِلُّ ، وَأَرَى سَبَبًا وَاصِلا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ ، فَأَرَاكَ أَخَذْتَ بِهِ فَعَلَوْتَ ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَعْدَكَ فَعَلا ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَعَلا ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِهِ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَانْقَطَعَ بِهِ ، ثُمَّ وُصِلَ لَهُ فَعَلا ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَاللَّهِ لَتَدَعَنِّي فَلأَعْبُرُهُ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " عَبِّرْ " ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : أَمَّا الظُّلَّةُ فَظُلَّةُ الإِسْلامِ ، وَأَمَّا الَّذِي يَنْطِفُ مِنَ السَّمْنِ وَالْعَسَلِ ، فَالْقُرْآنُ حَلاوَتُهُ وَلِينُهُ ، وَأَمَّا مَا يَتَكَفَّفُ النَّاسُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَالْمُسْتَكْثِرُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ وَالْمُسْتَقِلُّ ، وَأَمَّا السَّبَبُ الْوَاصِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ ، فَالْحَقُّ الَّذِي أَنْتَ عَلَيْهِ ، أَخَذْتَهُ فَيُعْلِيكَ الِلَّهِ ، ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ بِهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَعْدَكَ فَيَعْلُو بِهِ ، ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ بِهِ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَيَعْلُو بِهِ ، ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ بِهِ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَيَنْقَطِعُ بِهِ ، ثُمَّ يُوصَلُ لَهُ فَيَعْلُو ، فَأَخْبِرْنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، بِأَبِي أَنْتَ ، أَصَبْتُ أَمْ أَخْطَأْتُ ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَصَبْتَ بَعْضًا ، وَأَخْطَأْتَ بَعْضًا " ، قَالَ : وَاللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لَتُخْبِرَنِّي بِالَّذِي أَخْطَأْتُ ، قَالَ : " لا تُقْسِمْ " .
Ubaidullah bin Abdullah narrates: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) used to narrate: Once a man came to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He said: O Messenger of Allah! Last night I saw a cloud from which ghee and honey were raining down, and people were taking it in their hands. Some people were taking more, and some were taking less. Then I saw a rope hanging from the sky to the earth. Then I saw you, that you held it and ascended upwards. After you, a man held it and he also went up. Then another man held it and he also went up. Then another man held it, but the rope broke. Then it was joined for that man, so he also went up. (The narrator says) Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! May my father be sacrificed for you. By Allah! Give me permission so that I may interpret it. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: You interpret it! So Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The cloud means the cloud of Islam, and the ghee and honey dripping from it (means) the Qur'an. Its sweetness and softness are meant. As for people taking it in their hands, some people acquire more knowledge of the Qur'an and some acquire less knowledge of it. As for the rope hanging down from the sky, it is the truth upon which you are established. You held it, so Allah Almighty granted you elevation. Then after you, a man held it, so he attained elevation through it. Then another man held it, so he attained elevation through it. Then another man held it, but the rope was severed. Then it was joined for that man, so he also attained elevation. O Messenger of Allah! Tell me. May my father be sacrificed for you, have I interpreted it correctly or incorrectly? The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: You have interpreted some of it incorrectly, and some of it correctly. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah! O Messenger of Allah! Tell me where I made a mistake? The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Do not swear."
