قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: {قَالُوا ادْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُبَيِّنْ لَنَا مَا هِيَ إِنَّ الْبَقَرَ تَشَابَهَ عَلَيْنَا وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَمُهْتَدُونَ}His saying, the Exalted: "They said, 'Call upon your Lord to make clear to us what it is. Indeed, [all] cows look alike to us. And indeed we, if Allah wills, will be guided.'"
Hadith 193
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: لَوْ أَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَخَذُوا أَدْنَى بَقَرَةٍ فَذَبَحُوهَا أَجْزَأَتْ عَنْهُمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ شَدَّدُوا، وَلَوْلَا أَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: { إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَمُهْتَدُونَ } مَا وَجَدُوهَا .
Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "If the Children of Israel had taken any ordinary cow and slaughtered it, it would have been sufficient for them, but they themselves made it difficult (i.e., by asking unnecessary questions repeatedly). And if they had not said: 'If Allah wills, we will surely be guided' (QUR_2:70), they would not have found it (the required cow)."
