أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مَعْمَرًا، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ قُلْتُ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ نَعَمْ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، ح وَأَنْبَأَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ، وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ، قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لأَحْمَدَ - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " بُعِثْتُ بِجَوَامِعِ الْكَلِمِ وَنُصِرْتُ بِالرُّعْبِ وَبَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ أُتِيتُ بِمَفَاتِيحِ خَزَائِنِ الأَرْضِ فَوُضِعَتْ فِي يَدِي " . قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَذَهَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَنْتُمْ تَنْتَثِلُونَهَا .
Muhammad ibn Abd al-Ala informed us; he said: Mutamir narrated to us; he said: I heard Mamar, from al-Zuhri, who said: I asked whether this was from Said. He replied: Yes, from Abu Hurayrah. H. Ahmad ibn Amr ibn al-Sarh and al-Harith ibn Miskin also reported to us, by recitation to al-Harith while I listened; the wording here is Ahmad’s. They both said: Ibn Wahb narrated to us, from Yunus, from Ibn Shihab, from Ibn al-Musayyab, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: I was sent with concise, comprehensive speech, and I was granted victory through terror. While I was sleeping, the keys to the treasures of the earth were brought to me and placed in my hand. Abu Hurayrah said: Then the Messenger of Allah went away, while you are drawing them out.
Translation notes
The report preserves two transmission routes and specifies that the second route is given in Ahmad’s wording.
The final verb refers to drawing out or extracting the treasures; the wording is unusual.
قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَذَهَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَنْتُمْ تَنْتَثِلُونَهَا .
The rare final verb indicates extracting or drawing out the treasures; the precise English equivalent is uncertain.
