Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ ‏‏{‏لاَ يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ‏}‏ دَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم زَيْدًا، فَجَاءَ بِكَتِفٍ فَكَتَبَهَا، وَشَكَا ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ ضَرَارَتَهُ فَنَزَلَتْ ‏‏{‏لاَ يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ غَيْرُ أُولِي الضَّرَرِ ‏}‏‏.‏

Translation

Al-Bara reported: When the words “Those of the believers who remain behind are not equal…” were revealed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for Zayd. He came with a shoulder blade and wrote them down. Ibn Umm Maktum complained of his disability, and then these words were revealed: “Those of the believers who remain behind, except those with a disability…”

Translation notes
  • غَيْرُ أُولِي الضَّرَرِ

    The English witness continues the Qur’anic quotation beyond the wording present in this Arabic source occurrence.

    Should the longer verse continuation be documented separately without adding it to this occurrence’s translation?
