حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَرَأَ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ : ( فَلََمَّا تَجَلَّى رَبُّهُ لِلْجَبَلِ جَعَلَهُ دَكًّا ) قَالَ حَمَّادٌ هَكَذَا وَأَمْسَكَ سُلَيْمَانُ بِطَرَفِ إِبْهَامِهِ عَلَى أَنْمُلَةِ إِصْبَعِهِ الْيُمْنَى قَالَ فَسَاخَ الْجَبَلُ ( وخَرَّ مُوسَى صَعِقًا ) . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ صَحِيحٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ . حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الْوَرَّاقُ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَحْوَهُ . هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ .
Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.
Anas reported that the Prophet recited Allah’s words, “When his Lord manifested Himself to the mountain, He made it crumble…” (Qur’an 7:143). Hammad said, “Like this,” and Sulayman held the tip of his right thumb against the tip of his finger. Then the mountain collapsed, and Moses fell unconscious. Abu ‘Isa graded this hadith hasan gharib sahih and said it is known only through Hammad ibn Salamah.
A second chain from Hammad ibn Salamah, from Thabit, from Anas, reports similar wording from the Prophet. Abu ‘Isa graded that version hasan.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The report includes a hand gesture used by Sulayman while conveying the wording ‘like this’; the translation describes the gesture without assigning it further interpretation.
