حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مِسْعَرٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَنِ ابْتَاعَ طَعَامًا فَلَا يَبِعْهُ حَتَّى يَقْبِضَهُ " قَالَ مِسْعَرٌ: وَأَظُنُّهُ قَالَ: " أَوْ عَلَفًا " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It was narrated from Ibn "Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that he said:

When the verse on debt was revealed, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The first one to deny something was Adam (عليه السلام).” He said it three times. “When Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, created Adam. He wiped his back, and brought forth from him, all of his offspring until the Day of Resurrection, and He showed him his progeny. Among them he saw a man with a bright, white face, and he said: O Lord, who is this son of mine? He said: This is your son Dawood. He said: O Lord, how long will his life be? He said: Sixty years. He said: O Lord, make his life longer. He said: No, not unless I take it from your life. And the life of Adam was one thousand years. So he gave him forty years and Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, recorded that in a Book, and the angels bore witness to it. When Adam was dying and the angels came to him to take his soul, he said: There are still forty years of my life left. It was said to him: You gave that to your son Dawood, He said: I did not do that and I did not give him anything. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, showed him the record and the angels testified to that.
