حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: " لَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ فِي الْمَهْدِ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَةٌ: عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ، وَصَبِيٌّ كَانَ فِي زَمَانِ جُرَيْجٍ، وَصَبِيٌّ آخَرُ " فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ، قَالَ: " وَأَمَّا جُرَيْجٌ فَكَانَ رَجُلًا عَابِدًا فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَانَتْ لَهُ أُمٌّ، فَكَانَ يَوْمًا يُصَلِّي، إِذِ اشْتَاقَتْ إِلَيْهِ أُمُّهُ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا جُرَيْجُ. فَقَالَ: يَا رَبِّ، الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ أَمْ (١) آتِيهَا؟ ثُمَّ صَلَّى، وَدَعَتْهُ، فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ دَعَتْهُ، فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، وَصَلَّى، فَاشْتَدَّ عَلَى أُمِّهِ، وقَالَتْ: اللهُمَّ أَرِ جُرَيْجًا الْمُومِسَاتِ. ثُمَّ صَعِدَ صَوْمَعَةً لَهُ، وَكَانَتْ زَانِيَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ " فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ (٢)،

Translation

English translation

Husayn ibn Muhammad narrated to us, Jarir narrated to us, from Muhammad, from Abu Huraira, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "Only three spoke in the cradle: ‘Isa ibn Maryam, peace be upon him, a boy who was in the time of Jurayj, and another boy." Then he mentioned the hadith. He said: "As for Jurayj, he was a devout man among the Children of Israel, and he had a mother. One day, while he was praying, his mother longed for him and said: 'O Jurayj!' He said: 'O Lord, prayer is better or my mother whom I should go to?' Then he continued praying. She called him, and he said the same. Then she called him, and he said the same, and he continued praying. This became hard on his mother, and she said: 'O Allah, show Jurayj to the immoral women.' Then he ascended his hermitage, and there was a prostitute from the Children of Israel." Then he mentioned something similar.
