Hadith 265
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الذُّهْلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُقْرِئُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ عِمْرَانَ التُّجِيبِيُّ ، عَنْ أَبِي يُونُسَ مَوْلَى أَبِي هُرَيرَةَ وَاسْمُهُ سُلَيْمُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيرَةَ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي هَذِهِ الآيَةِ : إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَنْ تُؤَدُّوا الأَمَانَاتِ إِلَى أَهْلِهَا سورة النساء آية 58 إِلَى قَوْلِهِ : إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًا سورة النساء آية 58 : رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَضَعُ إِبْهَامَهُ عَلَى إِذْنِهِ ، وَأُصْبَعَهُ الدَّعَّاءَ عَلَى عَيْنِهِ ، قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ : أَرَادَ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِوَضْعِهِ أُصْبُعَهُ عَلَى أُذُنِهِ وَعَيْنِهِ تَعْرِيفَ النَّاسِ أَنَّ اللَّهَ جَلَّ وَعَلا لا يَسْمَعُ بِالأُذُنِ الَّتِي لَهَا سِمَاخٌ وَالْتِوَاءٌ ، وَلا يُبْصِرُ بِالْعَيْنِ الَّتِي لَهَا أَشْفَارٌ وَحَدَقٌ وَبَيَاضٌ ، جَلَّ رَبُّنَا وَتَعَالَى عَنْ أَنْ يُشَبَّهَ بِخَلْقِهِ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنَ الأَشْيَاءِ ، بَلْ يَسْمَعُ وَيُبْصِرُ بِلا آلَةٍ كَيْفَ يَشَاءُ .
It is narrated about Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said regarding this verse: (The command of Allah, the Exalted, is) "Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due." The verse continues up to: "Indeed, Allah is Hearing and Seeing." (Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates) I saw the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that he placed his thumb on his ear and his finger, with which he gestures during prayer, on his eye. (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) The meaning of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, placing his finger on his ears and his eyes is: to clarify to the people that Allah, the Exalted, does not hear by means of an ear that has a hole and a curve, nor does He see with the help of an eye that has pupils, eyeballs, and whiteness. Our Lord is far above and exalted from being likened to anything from His creation; rather, He hears and sees without any instrument, as He wills.
Hadith 266
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، قَال : حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنِ الْعَلاءِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يَنَامُ ، وَلا يَنْبَغِي لَهُ أَنْ يَنَامَ ، يَخْفِضُ الْقِسْطَ وَيَرْفَعُهُ ، يُرْفَعُ إِلَيْهِ عَمَلُ النَّهَارِ قَبْلُ اللَّيْلِ ، وَعَمَلُ اللَّيْلِ قَبْلُ النَّهَارِ ، حِجَابُهُ النُّورُ ، لَوْ كُشِفَ طَبَقُهَا أَحْرَقَ سُبُحَاتُ وَجْهِهِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَدْرَكَهُ بَصَرُهُ ، وَاضِعٌ يَدَهُ لِمُسِيءِ اللَّيْلِ لِيَتُوبَ بِالنَّهَارِ ، وَلُمُسِيءِ النَّهَارِ لِيَتُوبَ بِاللَّيْلِ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا " .
Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah Almighty does not sleep, and it does not befit His Majesty that He should sleep. He lowers and raises the scales. The deeds of the day are presented before Him before the coming of the night, and the deeds of the night before the coming of the day. His veil is light. If He were to remove the veil, the radiance of His countenance would burn everything that His sight reaches. He has extended His hand of mercy during the night for the sinner of the day, so that He may accept his repentance during the day, and He has extended His hand during the day for the sinner of the night, so that He may accept his repentance during the night." (This will continue) until the sun rises from the west.
