حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَهَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لِزُهَيْرٍ - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ، بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، أَنَّ حُمَيْدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ يَا رَافِعُ - لِبَوَّابِهِ - إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقُلْ لَئِنْ كَانَ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مِنَّا فَرِحَ بِمَا أَتَى وَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يُحْمَدَ بِمَا لَمْ يَفْعَلْ مُعَذَّبًا لَنُعَذَّبَنَّ أَجْمَعُونَ . فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ مَا لَكُمْ وَلِهَذِهِ الآيَةِ إِنَّمَا أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ فِي أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ . ثُمَّ تَلاَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ { وَإِذْ أَخَذَ اللَّهُ مِيثَاقَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ لَتُبَيِّنُنَّهُ لِلنَّاسِ وَلاَ تَكْتُمُونَهُ} هَذِهِ الآيَةَ وَتَلاَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ { لاَ تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ يَفْرَحُونَ بِمَا أَتَوْا وَيُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يُحْمَدُوا بِمَا لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا} وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ سَأَلَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ شَىْءٍ فَكَتَمُوهُ إِيَّاهُ وَأَخْبَرُوهُ بِغَيْرِهِ فَخَرَجُوا قَدْ أَرَوْهُ أَنْ قَدْ أَخْبَرُوهُ بِمَا سَأَلَهُمْ عَنْهُ وَاسْتَحْمَدُوا بِذَلِكَ إِلَيْهِ وَفَرِحُوا بِمَا أَتَوْا مِنْ كِتْمَانِهِمْ إِيَّاهُ مَا سَأَلَهُمْ عَنْهُ .
Humaid ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn ‘Awf reported that Marwan said, ‘Rafi‘—his doorkeeper—go to Ibn ‘Abbas and tell him: If every person among us were punished for rejoicing in what he has done and loving to be praised for what he has not done, then we would all be punished.’ Ibn ‘Abbas said, ‘What business do you have with this verse? It was revealed concerning the People of the Book.’ Ibn ‘Abbas then recited: “When Allah took a covenant from those who were given the Scripture, [saying], ‘You must make it clear to the people and not conceal it…’” He also recited: “Do not think that those who rejoice in what they have done and love to be praised for what they have not done…” Ibn ‘Abbas explained: The Prophet (ﷺ) asked them about something, but they concealed it from him and told him something else. They then left, making him believe they had told him what he had asked about, and they sought praise from him for that, rejoicing in having concealed from him what he had asked them.
