حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، وَعَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَانُوا يَغْتَسِلُونَ عُرَاةً، وَكَانَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ مُوسَى (٣) فِيهِ الْحَيَاءُ، وَالْخَفَرُ، فَكَانَ يَسْتَتِرُ إِذَا اغْتَسَلَ، فَطَعَنُوا فِيهِ بِعَوْرَةٍ (٤) ، قَالَ: فَبَيْنَمَا نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَغْتَسِلُ يَوْمًا إِذْ وَضَعَ ثِيَابَهُ عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ، فَانْطَلَقَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ، فَاتَّبَعَهَا نَبِيُّ اللهِ ضَرْبًا بِالْعَصَا، ثَوْبِي يَا حَجَرُ ثَوْبِي يَا حَجَرُ حَتَّى انْتَهَتْ، ، بِهِ إِلَى مَلَإٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَوْ تَوَسَّطَتْهُمْ، فَقَامَتْ فَأَخَذَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ثِيَابَهُ فَنَظَرُوا إِلَى أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ خَلْقًا، وَأَعْدَلِهِ (١) صُورَةً، فَقَالَ الْمَلَأُ: قَاتَلَ اللهُ أَفَّاكِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَكَانَتْ بَرَاءَتُهُ الَّتِي بَرَّأَهُ اللهُ بِهَا " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: The people of Bani Israel used to bathe naked and would look at each other's private parts, whereas Musa (peace be upon him), out of modesty and shyness, used to bathe alone. The people of Bani Israel began to accuse him of having a physical defect. Once, Musa (peace be upon him) went to bathe, and as usual, took off his clothes and placed them on a stone. The stone ran away with his clothes. Musa (peace be upon him) ran after it, saying, "O stone, my clothes! O stone, my clothes!" until the stone stopped in the midst of a gathering of Bani Israel. Musa (peace be upon him) took his clothes from it, and the people saw Musa (peace be upon him) and found him to be the most handsome and well-built among them. Upon seeing this, the people said, "May Allah's curse be upon those who accused Bani Israel." This was the exoneration that Allah had mentioned.
