Hadith 30
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْجَوَّابِ، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ رُزَيْقٍ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: زُلْزِلَتْ الْأَرْضُ عَلَى عَهْدِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، فَأُخْبِرَ بِذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّا كُنَّا أَصْحَابَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّي اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَرَى الْآيَاتِ بَرَكَاتٍ، وَأَنْتُمْ تَرَوْنَهَا تَخْوِيفًا، بَيْنَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ إِذْ حَضَرَتْ الصَّلَاةُ وَلَيْسَ مَعَنَا مَاءٌ إِلَّا يَسِيرٌ،"فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَاءٍ فِي صَحْفَةٍ، وَوَضَعَ كَفَّهُ فِيهِ، فَجَعَلَ الْمَاءُ يَتْبَجِّسُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ"، ثُمَّ نَادَى: "حَيَّ عَلَى الْوَضُوءِ، وَالْبَرَكَةُ مِنْ اللَّهِ"، قالَ: فَأَقْبَلَ النَّاسُ فَتَوَضَّئُوا، وَجَعَلْتُ لَا هَمَّ لِي إِلَّا مَا أُدْخِلُهُ بَطْنِي لِقَوْلِهِ: "وَالْبَرَكَةُ مِنْ اللَّهِ"، فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ سَالِمَ بْنَ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ , فَقَالَ: كَانُوا خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ مِئَةٍ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that during his time an earthquake occurred. When he was informed about it, he said: "We, the companions of the Messenger of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), used to look at these signs and miracles as a blessing, while you fear them. We were on a journey with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) when the time for prayer arrived and we had a little water with us. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) had that small amount of water brought and placed in a vessel, and he placed his blessed hand over it, and water began to gush forth from between his fingers. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 'Come to the water (in another version: come for ablution), and the blessing is from Allah, the Exalted.' The narrator said: So the people turned towards it and performed ablution, and at that time I was concerned with filling my stomach with that water because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) had said that this blessing is from Allah. The narrator said: I related this to Salim bin Abi Al-Ja'd, and he said: At that time, the number of the noble companions was fifteen hundred."

Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadiths 25 to 30)
From all these authentic narrations, the manifest miracle of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam becomes evident: such a large army, and only a few drops of water, yet when you supplicate, the water begins to gush forth like a spring. This is proof of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam being a true Prophet. Then observe the humility and truthfulness of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, that upon the occurrence of this great event, he attributes this miracle not to himself, but solely to the “Lord of the worlds,” declaring that this is solely the grace and favor of Allah ta‘ala.

Hadith Commentary:
This was a miracle of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) that the noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) would hear, with their own ears, the sound of glorification (tasbih) coming from food and other things. Otherwise, every thing declares the glorification of Allah the Exalted, as He has said:
﴿وَإِن مِّن شَيْءٍ إِلَّا يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِهِ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تَفْقَهُونَ تَسْبِيحَهُمْ﴾
“There is nothing except that it glorifies Him with His praise, but you do not understand their glorification.”
Imam Bayhaqi (rahimahullah) has narrated in Dala’il that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) took seven pebbles, and they declared tasbih in his hand, and their sound was heard.
Then he placed them in the hands of Abu Bakr (radi Allahu anhu), then in the hand of Umar (radi Allahu anhu), then in the hand of Uthman (radi Allahu anhu); in each one’s hand, they declared tasbih.
Hafiz has said: The splitting of the moon (shaqq al-qamar) is established by the Qur’an and authentic hadiths, and the crying of the tree is also established by authentic hadith, but the tasbih of the pebbles is established only by a single chain, which is weak.
In any case, these are miracles of the Noble Messenger (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), and it is necessary to have faith in them exactly as they are established. The meaning of the statement of Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud (radi Allahu anhu) is that you consider every sign and extraordinary event to be a warning (takhwif).
This is your mistake.
Some of Allah’s signs are indeed for warning, such as eclipses and the like, and some signs, such as blessing in food and drink, are a manifestation of divine favor and grace.

Hadith Commentary:
➊
The Companions (radi Allahu anhum) hearing the glorification (tasbih) of the food was a miracle (mu‘jizah) of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam). Otherwise, according to the explicit statement of the Noble Qur’an, every thing declares the glorification of Allah, the Exalted.
The statement of Allah, the Exalted, is:
﴿وَإِن مِّن شَيْءٍ إِلَّا يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِهِ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تَفْقَهُونَ تَسْبِيحَهُمْ﴾
“And there is nothing except that it glorifies Him with His praise, but you do not understand their glorification.”
(Bani Isra’il: 44/17)
Once, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) took seven pebbles, and they glorified Allah aloud in his hand. Then he placed them in the hand of Abu Bakr (radi Allahu anhu), then in the hand of ‘Umar (radi Allahu anhu), and after that in the hand of ‘Uthman (radi Allahu anhu). Each of them heard the glorification in their respective hands.
(al-Mu‘jam al-Awsat by al-Tabarani: 2/59, Dar al-Haramayn edition; Fath al-Bari: 6/723)
➋
It is stated in the Noble Qur’an:
“We do not send the signs except as a warning.”
(Bani Isra’il: 59/17)
From this verse, some people have taken the position that every sign is sent as a warning. ‘Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud (radi Allahu anhu) refuted them, stating that it is questionable to consider every sign as being for warning.
Some of the signs of Allah, the Exalted, are indeed for warning, while some signs—such as blessing in food and drink—are purely the grace and favor of Allah, the Exalted.
