Narrator:Ā’ishah

حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ فَرْقَدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ هِشَامَ بْنَ عُرْوَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ تَقُولُ ‏‏{‏وَمَنْ كَانَ غَنِيًّا فَلْيَسْتَعْفِفْ وَمَنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ‏}‏

أُنْزِلَتْ فِي وَالِي الْيَتِيمِ الَّذِي يُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ، وَيُصْلِحُ فِي مَالِهِ، إِنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا أَكَلَ مِنْهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ‏.‏

Narrated Hisham bin `Urwa from his father:

who heard Aisha saying, "The Holy Verse; 'Whoever amongst the guardians is rich, he should take no wages (from the property of the orphans) but If he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable (according to his labors)' (4.6) was revealed concerning the guardian of the orphans who looks after them and manages favorably their financial affairs; If the guardian Is poor, he could have from It what Is just and reasonable, (according to his labors).

حَدِيثُ عَائِشَةَ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى ( وَمَنْ كَانَ غَنِيًّا فَلْيَسْتَعْفِفْ ) وَسَيَأْتِي الْكَلَامُ عَلَيْهِ فِي تَفْسِيرِ سُورَةِ النِّسَاءِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى , فَإِنَّهُ سَاقَهُ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ هَذَا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ فَظَهَرَ مِنْ سِيَاقِهِ أَنَّهُ هُنَا بِلَفْظِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ وَهُنَاكَ بِلَفْظِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ , وَقَدْ ذَكَرَهُ هُنَا بِلَفْظِ " وَالِي الْيَتِيمِ الَّذِي يُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ " وَقَالَ اِبْنُ التِّينِ : الصَّوَابُ " يَقُومُ " لِأَنَّهُ مِنْ الْقِيَامِ لَا مِنْ الْإِقَامَةِ , قُلْت : وَكَذَا أَخْرَجَهُ أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ , وَلَمْ يَقَعْ فِي رِوَايَةِ اِبْنِ نُمَيْرٍ شَيْءٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَلَا فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي…
