Authentic hadith of Sahih al-Bukhari Sahih al-Bukhari 3853

Narrator:Abdullah ibn Mas‘ūd

حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه قَالَ

قَرَأَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم النَّجْمَ، فَسَجَدَ فَمَا بَقِيَ أَحَدٌ إِلاَّ سَجَدَ، إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ رَأَيْتُهُ أَخَذَ كَفًّا مِنْ حَصًا فَرَفَعَهُ فَسَجَدَ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ هَذَا يَكْفِينِي‏.‏ فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ بَعْدُ قُتِلَ كَافِرًا بِاللَّهِ‏.‏

Narrated `Abdullah:

The Prophet (ﷺ) recited Surat An-Najam and prostrated, and there was nobody who did not prostrate then except a man whom I saw taking a handful of pebbles, lifting it, and prostrating on it. He then said, "This is sufficient for me." No doubt I saw him killed as a disbeliever afterwards.

حَدِيث اِبْن مَسْعُود قَرَأَ النَّبِيّ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ النَّجْم فَسَجَدَ " سَبَقَ الْكَلَام عَلَيْهِ فِي سُجُود الْقُرْآن مِنْ كِتَاب الصَّلَاة , وَيَأْتِي بَقِيَّته فِي تَفْسِير سُورَة النَّجْم , وَقَدْ تَقَدَّمَ هُنَاكَ تَسْمِيَة الَّذِي لَمْ يَسْجُد , وَزَعَمَ الْوَاقِدِيّ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ فِي رَمَضَان سَنَة خَمْس مِنْ الْمَبْعَث. ( تَنْبِيه ) : كَانَ حَقّ هَذَا الْحَدِيث أَنْ يُذْكَر فِي " بَاب الْهِجْرَة إِلَى الْحَبَشَة " الْمَذْكُور بَعْد قَلِيل فَسَيَأْتِي فِيهَا أَنَّ سُجُود الْمُشْرِكِينَ الْمَذْكُور فِيهِ سَبَب رُجُوع مَنْ هَاجَرَ الْهِجْرَة الْأُولَى إِلَى الْحَبَشَة لِظَنِّهِمْ أَنَّ الْمُشْرِكِينَ كُلّهمْ أَسْلَمُوا , فَلَمَّا ظَهَرَ لَهُمْ خِلَاف ذَلِكَ هَاج…
