Hadith 26:67
Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, Al-A'mash narrated to us, from 'Umarah, from 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Yazid, from 'Abdullah, who said: I was hidden behind the coverings of the Ka'bah, when three men came: a Qurashi and his two brothers-in-law who were Thaqafis, or a Thaqafi and his two brothers-in-law who were Qurashis. They had much fat in their bellies and little understanding in their hearts. They spoke words I did not hear. One of them said: "Do you think Allah hears this speech of ours?" Another said: "If we raise our voices, He hears it, and if we do not raise them, He does not hear it." The other said: "If He hears some of it, He hears all of it." He said: I mentioned that to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed: "And you were not covering yourselves, lest your hearing, your sight, and your skins should testify against you" [Fussilat: 22], up to His saying: "And that was your assumption which you assumed about your Lord. It has brought you to ruin, and you have become among the losers" [Fussilat: 23].
حدثنا أبو معاوية، حدثنا الأعمش، عن عمارة، عن عبد الرحمن بن يزيد، عن عبد الله، قال: كنت مستترا بأستار الكعبة، فجاء ثلاثة نفر: قرشي، وختناه ثقفيان، أو ثقفي وختناه قرشيان، كثير شحم بطونهم، قليل فقه قلوبهم، فتكلموا بكلام لم أسمعه فقال أحدهم: أترون الله يسمع كلامنا هذا؟ فقال الآخر: أرانا إذا رفعنا أصواتنا سمعه، وإذا لم نرفعها لم يسمعه ، فقال الآخر: إن سمع منه شيئا سمعه كله، قال: " فذكرت ذلك للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فأنزل الله عز وجل: {وما كنتم تستترون أن يشهد عليكم سمعكم ولا أبصاركم ولا جلودكم} [فصلت: 22] ، إلى قوله: {ذلكم ظنكم الذي ظننتم بربكم أرداكم فأصبحتم من الخاسرين} [فصلت: 23] "
