حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، وَحَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ عَفَّانُ: حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، قَالَ أَنَسٌ: كُنَّا نُهِينَا فِي الْقُرْآنِ أَنْ نَسْأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ، قَالَ: وَكَانَ يُعْجِبُنَا أَنْ يَجِيءَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ، ، الْعَاقِلُ، يَسْأَلُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، أَتَانَا رَسُولُكَ، وَزَعَمَ لَنَا أَنَّكَ تَزْعُمُ أَنَّ اللهَ أَرْسَلَكَ، قَالَ: " صَدَقَ ". قَالَ: فَمَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاءَ؟ قَالَ: " اللهُ ". قَالَ: فَمَنْ خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ؟ قَالَ: " اللهُ ". قَالَ: فَمَنْ نَصَبَ هَذِهِ الْجِبَالَ؟ قَالَ: " اللهُ ". قَالَ: فَبِالَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاءَ، وَخَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ، وَنَصَبَ الْجِبَالَ، آللَّهُ أَرْسَلَكَ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ ". قَالَ: وَزَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي يَوْمِنَا وَلَيْلَتِنَا، قَالَ: " صَدَقَ ". قَالَ: فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ، آللَّهُ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ ". قَالَ: وَزَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا زَكَاةً فِي أَمْوَالِنَا، قَالَ: " صَدَقَ ". قَالَ: فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ، آللَّهُ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ ". قَالَ: وَزَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا صَوْمَ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فِي سَنَتِنَا، قَالَ عَفَّانُ: قَالَ: " صَدَقَ ". قَالَ: فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ، آللَّهُ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ ". وَزَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا الْحَجَّ مَنْ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا، قَالَ: " صَدَقَ ". قَالَ: فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ، آللَّهُ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ ". قَالَ عَفَّانُ:، ثُمَّ وَلَّى، ثُمَّ قَالَ: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ، لَا أَزْدَادُ (١) وَلَا أَنْتَقِصُ مِنْهُنَّ شَيْئًا، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَئِنْ صَدَقَ، ، لَيَدْخُلَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that (since) we were forbidden in the Qur'an from asking the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) too many questions, we used to wish in our hearts that some intelligent Bedouin would come and ask the Prophet (ﷺ) about some issue so that we could listen. So (once) a Bedouin came and presented himself before the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "Your messenger came to us and said that you claim Allah has made you a Prophet?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "He spoke the truth." The Bedouin asked, "Who created the heavens, the earth, and the mountains?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "The Lord did." The Bedouin said, "I ask you by the One Who created the heavens and the earth and established the mountains, (tell me) has Allah really sent you as a Messenger?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Yes!" The Bedouin said, "Your messenger said that five prayers are obligatory upon us in the day and night." The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "He spoke the truth." The Bedouin said, "I ask you by Allah, Who sent you as a Messenger (tell me), did Allah command you this?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Yes!" The Bedouin said, "Your messenger said that it is obligatory upon us to give zakat from our wealth?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "He spoke the truth." He said, "By Allah, Who sent you, did He command you this?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Yes!" He said, "Your messenger also said that fasting for one month in the year is obligatory upon us?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "He spoke the truth." The Bedouin said, "I ask you by Allah, Who made you a Prophet (tell me), did Allah command you this?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Yes!" The Bedouin said, "Your messenger also said that Hajj is obligatory upon those among us who are able?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "He spoke the truth." In the end, the Bedouin turned his back and as he was leaving, he said, "By Allah, Who has sent you with the truth, I will neither add to this nor decrease anything from it." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If he is truthful, he will enter Paradise."
