Taha Ayah 25-35

مُسْلِمٍ،عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)،قَالَ: «كَانَ مُوسَى شَدِيدَ السُّمْرَةِ،فَأَخْرَجَ يَدَهُ مِنْ جَيْبِهِ،فَأَضَاءَتْ لَهُ الدُّنْيَا».

He reports from Muslim, from Abu Ja‘far (peace be upon him), who said: “Moses was very dark-skinned, and when he brought his hand out of his bosom, the world was illuminated for him.”

قوله تعالى:

قٰالَ رَبِّ اشْرَحْ لِي صَدْرِي* وَ يَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي* وَ احْلُلْ عُقْدَةً مِنْ لِسٰانِي* يَفْقَهُوا قَوْلِي* وَ اجْعَلْ لِي وَزِيراً مِنْ أَهْلِي* هٰارُونَ أَخِي* اشْدُدْ بِهِ أَزْرِي* وَ أَشْرِكْهُ فِي أَمْرِي* كَيْ نُسَبِّحَكَ كَثِيراً* وَ نَذْكُرَكَ كَثِيراً* إِنَّكَ كُنْتَ بِنٰا بَصِيراً [طه 25-35]

He said: O my Lord! Expand my breast for me, And make my affair easy to me, And loose the knot from my tongue, (That) they may understand my word; And give to me an aid from my family: Haroun, my brother, Strengthen my back by him, And associate him (with me) in my affair, So that we should glorify Thee much, And remember Thee oft. Surely Thou art seeing us. (Taha 20:25-35, M. H. Shakir)

99-/7007

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ،قَالَ:حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْخَثْعَمِيُّ،عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ،عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ هَاشِمٍ،عَنْ عُمَرَ [1] بْنِ حَارِثٍ،عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ،عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ [2] التَّغْلِبِيِّ [3]،عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ عُمَيْسٍ،قَالَتْ:

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)بِإِزَاءِ ثَبِيرٍ [4]،وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ:«أَشْرِقْ ثَبِيرُ أَشْرِقْ ثَبِيرُ،اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مَا سَأَلَكَ أَخِي مُوسَى،أَنْ تَشْرَحَ لِي صَدْرِي،وَ أَنْ تُيَسِّرَ لِي أَمْرِي،وَ أَنْ تُحَلِّلَ عُقْدَةً مِنْ لِسَانِي يَفْقَهُوا قَوْلِي،وَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِي وَزِيراً مِنْ أَهْلِي عَلِيّاً أَخِي،اشْدُدْ بِهِ أَزْرِي،وَ أَشْرِكْهُ فِي أَمْرِي،كَيْ نُسَبِّحَكَ كَثِيراً،وَ نَذْكُرَكَ كَثِيراً،إِنَّكَ كُنْتَ بِنَا بَصِيراً».

99-/7007 Asma’ bint ‘Umays said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and his family) facing Thabir [4], while he was saying: ‘Rise, O Thabir, rise, O Thabir. O Allah, I ask You for what my brother Moses asked You: that You expand my breast, that You make my affair easy for me, that You loosen a knot from my tongue so that they may understand my speech, and that You appoint for me from my family a minister—‘Ali, my brother—strengthen my back by him and associate him in my affair, so that we may glorify You much and remember You much; surely You have always been seeing us.’”

99-/7008

وَ مِنْ طَرِيقِ الْمُخَالِفِينَ:مَا رَوَاهُ أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ الْحَافِظُ،بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ رِجَالِهِ،عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ،قَالَ: أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ(صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ)بِيَدِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)وَ بِيَدِي وَ نَحْنُ بِمَكَّةَ وَ صَلَّى أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ،ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ،وَ قَالَ:«اللَّهُمَّ،إِنَّ نَبِيَّكَ مُوسَى بْنِ عِمْرَانَ سَأَلَكَ،فَقَالَ: رَبِّ اشْرَحْ لِي صَدْرِي* وَ يَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي الْآيَةَ،وَ أَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ نَبِيُّكَ أَسْأَلُكَ،رَبِّ اشْرَحْ لِي صَدْرِي،وَ يَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي،وَ احْلُلْ عُقْدَةً مِنْ لِسَانِي يَفْقَهُوا قَوْلِي، وَ اجْعَلْ لِي وَزِيراً مِنْ أَهْلِي،عَلِيّاً أَخِي،اشْدُدْ بِهِ أَزْرِي،وَ أَشْرِكْهُ فِي أَمْرِي».

قال ابن عبّاس:فسمعت مناديا ينادي:يا أحمد،قد أوتيتَ ما سألتَ.

99-/7008 And from the path of the opponents: Abu Nu‘aym the hadith master related, with his chain from his men, from Ibn ‘Abbas, who said: “The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and his family) took the hand of ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib (peace be upon him) and my hand while we were in Mecca, and he prayed four rak‘ahs. Then he raised his hands toward the heaven and said: ‘O Allah, Your Prophet Moses son of ‘Imran asked You, saying: My Lord! Expand my breast for me, and make my affair easy to me...; and I, Muhammad, Your Prophet, ask You: My Lord! Expand my breast for me, and make my affair easy to me, and loose a knot from my tongue so that they may understand my speech, and appoint for me from my family a minister—‘Ali, my brother—strengthen my back by him and associate him in my affair.’” Ibn ‘Abbas said: “Then I heard a herald calling out: ‘O Ahmad, you have been granted what you asked.’”

قوله تعالى:

وَ أَلْقَيْتُ عَلَيْكَ مَحَبَّةً مِنِّي [طه 39]

And I cast down upon you love from Me, and that you might be brought up under My eye. (Taha 20:39, M. H. Shakir)

99-/7009

الْعَيَّاشِيُّ:عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ،قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ(عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ)عَنْ قَوْلِهِ: فٰالِقُ الْحَبِّ وَ النَّوىٰ [5].

99-/7009 Al-‘Ayyashi: from al-Mufaddal, who said: “I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (peace be upon him) about His saying: The Splitter of the grain and the date-stone [5].”

فَالِقُ الْحَبِّ وَالنَّوَى [الأنعام 95]

Surely Allah causes the seed-grain and the date-stone to germinate; He brings forth the living from the dead and He is the bringer forth of the dead from the living; this is Allah; how are you then turned away. (Al-An‘am 6:95, M. H. Shakir)
