حديث البراء بن عازب

Hadith 658:41

'Affan narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, from Abu Ishaq, from Al-Bara', who said: "When this verse was revealed: {Not equal are those of the believers who sit [at home]} [An-Nisa: 95] {and those who strive in the cause of Allah} [An-Nisa: 95], the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called Zayd. He came with a shoulder blade, and he wrote it down." He said: "Then Ibn Umm Maktum came and complained of his blindness to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), so it was revealed: {other than those having a disability} [An-Nisa: 95]."

حدثنا عفان، حدثنا شعبة، عن أبي إسحاق، عن البراء، قال: " لما نزلت هذه الآية: {لا يستوي القاعدون من المؤمنين} [النساء: 95] {والمجاهدون في سبيل الله} [النساء: 95] " دعا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم زيدا، فجاء بكتف، فكتبها " قال: فجاء ابن أم مكتوم فشكا ضرارته إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فنزلت: {غير أولي الضرر } [النساء: 95]
