52.28 Whoever sees that promises should be fulfilled

٥٢۔٢٨ باب مَنْ أَمَرَ بِإِنْجَازِ الْوَعْدِ

[Machine] And Hasan did it, and he mentioned Ismael that he was truthful in his promise. And the son of Ashwa fulfilled his promise. And Samurah mentioned that. And Musawir bin Makhrama said, I heard the Prophet ﷺ and he mentioned his son-in-law, he said: "He promised me and fulfilled it to me." Abu Abdullah said, I saw Ishaq bin Ibrahim disputing with the Hadith of Ibn Ashwa.

وَفَعَلَهُ الْحَسَنُ، وَذَكَرَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ صَادِقَ الْوَعْدِ. وَقَضَى ابْنُ الأَشْوَعِ بِالْوَعْدِ. وَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ. وَقَالَ الْمِسْوَرُ بْنُ مَخْرَمَةَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، وَذَكَرَ صِهْرًا لَهُ قَالَ: «وَعَدَنِي فَوَفَى لِي». قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَرَأَيْتُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ يَحْتَجُّ بِحَدِيثِ ابْنِ أَشْوَعَ.

Abu Sufyan told me that Heraclius said to him, "When I inquired you what he (i.e. Muhammad) ordered you, you replied that he ordered you to establish the prayer, to speak the truth, to be chaste, to keep promises and to pay back trusts." Then Heraclius added, "These are really the qualities of a prophet."  

البخاري:٢٦٨١ – حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ صَالِحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سُفْيَانَ أَنَّ هِرَقْلَ قَالَ لَهُ سَأَلْتُكَ مَاذَا يَأْمُرُكُمْ فَزَعَمْتَ

أَنَّهُ أَمَرَكُمْ بِالصَّلاَةِ وَالصِّدْقِ وَالْعَفَافِ وَالْوَفَاءِ بِالْعَهْدِ وَأَدَاءِ الأَمَانَةِ قَالَ وَهَذِهِ صِفَةُ نَبِيٍّ

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The signs of a hypocrite are three: (1) whenever he speaks, he tells a lie, (2) whenever he is entrusted, he proves to be dishonest, (3) whenever he promises, he breaks his promise.  

البخاري:٢٦٨٢ – حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سُهَيْلٍ نَافِعِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَبِي عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ آيَةُ الْمُنَافِقِ ثَلاَثٌ إِذَا حَدَّثَ كَذَبَ وَإِذَا اؤْتُمِنَ خَانَ وَإِذَا وَعَدَ أَخَلَفَ

Jabir bin ʿAbdullah said, "When the Prophet ﷺ died, Abu Bakr received some property from Al-ʿAla bin Al-Hadrami. Abu Bakr said to the people, "Whoever has a money claim on the Prophet, or was promised something by him, should come to us (so that we may pay him his right)." Jabir added, "I said (to Abu Bakr), Messenger of Allah ﷺ promised me that he would give me this much, and this much, and this much (spreading his hands three times)." Jabir added, "Abu Bakr counted for me and handed me five-hundred (gold pieces), and then five-hundred, and then five-hundred."

لَمَّا مَاتَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ جَاءَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَالٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ دَيْنٌ أَوْ كَانَتْ لَهُ قِبَلَهُ عِدَةٌ فَلْيَأْتِنَا قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَقُلْتُ وَعَدَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُعْطِيَنِي هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا فَبَسَطَ يَدَيْهِ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَعَدَّ فِي يَدِي خَمْسَمِائَةٍ ثُمَّ خَمْسَمِائَةٍ ثُمَّ خَمْسَمِائَةٍ

A Jew from Hira asked me which one of the two periods Musa (i.e. Prophet Moses) completed. I said, "I don't know, (but wait) till I see the most learned 'Arab and inquire him about it." So, I went to Ibn ʿAbbas and asked him. He replied, "Moses completed the longer and better period." Ibn ʿAbbas added, "No doubt, an apostle of Allah always does what he says."  

البخاري:٢٦٨٤ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ شُجَاعٍ عَنْ سَالِمٍ الأَفْطَسِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ قَالَ سَأَلَنِي يَهُودِيٌّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْحِيرَةِ أَىَّ الأَجَلَيْنِ قَضَى مُوسَى قُلْتُ لاَ أَدْرِي حَتَّى أَقْدَمَ عَلَى حَبْرِ الْعَرَبِ فَأَسْأَلَهُ فَقَدِمْتُ فَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ

قَضَى أَكْثَرَهُمَا وَأَطْيَبَهُمَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَالَ فَعَلَ
