حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، قال أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، قال أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، يَقُولُ مَرِضْتُ فَأَتَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُنِي فَوَجَدَنِي قَدْ أُغْمِيَ عَلَىَّ فَأَتَى وَمَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَهُمَا مَاشِيَانِ فَتَوَضَّأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَصَبَّ عَلَىَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ فَأَفَقْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ

كَيْفَ أَقْضِي فِي مَالِي أَوْ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ فِي مَالِي فَلَمْ يُجِبْنِي شَيْئًا وَكَانَ لَهُ تِسْعُ أَخَوَاتٍ حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْمِيرَاثِ ‏:‏ ‏‏(‏يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلاَلَةِ ‏)‏ الآيَةَ ‏.‏

Jabir bin 'Abdullah said:

"I was ill, so the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W)came to visit me and found me unconscious. He came walking while Abu Bakr and 'Umar were with him. The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) performed Wudu, then poured the remaining water on me, so I came to my senses. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah(S.A.W)! how shall I dispose of my wealth?' - or - 'What shall I do with my wealth?' He did not reply anything to me" -and he had nine sisters- "until the Ayah about the inheritance was revealed: they ask you for a legal verdict. Say: "Allah directs (thus) about Al-Kalalah." Jabir said: "It was revealed regarding me."

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( قَدْ أُغْمِيَ ) بِصِيغَةِ الْمَجْهُولِ ( عَلَيَّ ) بِتَشْدِيدِ الْيَاءِ. قَالَ فِي النِّهَايَةِ : أُغْمِيَ عَلَى الْمَرِيضِ غُشِيَ عَلَيْهِ كَأَنَّ الْمَرَضَ سَتَرَ عَقْلَهُ وَغَطَّاهُ اِنْتَهَى. وَقَالَ الْكَرْمَانِيُّ : الْإِغْمَاءُ وَالْغَشْيُ بِمَعْنًى وَاحِدٍ. قَالَ الْعَيْنِيُّ : وَلَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ , فَإِنَّ الْغَشْيَ مَرَضٌ يَحْصُلُ مِنْ طُولِ التَّعَبِ وَهُوَ أَخَفُّ مِنْ الْإِغْمَاءِ , وَالْفَرْقُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْجُنُونِ وَالنَّوْمِ أَنَّ الْعَقْلَ يَكُونُ فِي الْإِغْمَاءِ مَغْلُوبًا وَفِي الْجُنُونِ يَكُونُ مَسْلُوبًا وَفِي النَّوْمِ يَكُونُ مَسْتُورًا اِنْتَهَى ( فَصَبَّ عَلَيَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ ) بِفَتْحِ الْوَاوِ. وَقَالَ الْحَافِظُ : يُحْتَمَلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ الْمُ…
