The Book of Mosques and Places of Prayer-01a

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Abu al-Tahir and Harimah narrated to us, saying: Ibn Wahb informed us, saying: Yunus narrated to me from Ibn Shihab from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
I have been commissioned with words which are concise but comprehensive in meaning; I have been helped by terror (in the hearts of enemies): and while I was asleep I was brought the keys of the treasures of the earth which were placed in my hand. بعثت بجوامع الكلم ونصرت بالرعب وبينا أنا نائم أتيت بمفاتيح خزائن الأرض فوضعت بين يدي
Sahih Muslim 523b
.

The Shaykh : In my hand, before me? Yes.
The reader:
Abu Huraira added: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet (ﷺ) did not benefit by them). قال أبو هريرة فذهب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وأنتم تنتثلونه
Sahih al-Bukhari 2977
.

The Shaykh : May Allah send prayers and peace upon him. Allahu Akbar. His statement:
I was sent with concise words. بعثت بجوامع الكلِم
The Noble Qur'an, as is not hidden, contains concise words that are well known, and sometimes it contains elaboration. For example, you see in Surat al-Rahman and in Surat al-Mursalat there is elaboration, and in some surahs you see concise words. Even the stories of the nations are found to be brief, but they are a severe warning. Read:
The Hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two]. اقتربت الساعة وانشَقَّ القمر
[Al-Qamar 54:1]
, you will find concise words but in them is a deterrent that shakes the soul. And read:
Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is, over all things, Disposer of affairs. الله خالق كل شيء وهو على كل شيء وكيل
[Az-Zumar 39:62]
, you will find concise words.
In this hadith, there is an addition to what came before, which is that he was brought the keys to the treasures of the earth. Yes.
