Explanation of the Book of Fitnahs and Rulings-02b

The reciter: And Khalifah said to me: Yazid ibn Zura' narrated to us, Sa'id and Mu'tamir narrated from his father, from Qatadah, that Anas narrated to them from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) this, and he said: .

The Shaykh : As you can see, the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) until they exhausted him in the matter, meaning they tired him out in the question out of their eagerness for knowledge, not to cause harm to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So one day he ascended the pulpit and said: This is a truthful report; had they asked him about anything, he would have clarified it, but this contains fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) because they might ask him about things from the pre-Islamic age of ignorance regarding their fathers and mothers, or about matters that will happen in the future, which would be terrifying and disturbing. When he said this, every person put his head in his garment and wrapped it around him, and they began to weep (may Allah be pleased with them), weeping out of reverence for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and out of shame that they had forced the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to say this statement. meaning if he disputes and this is an allusion to false accusation or a false accusation, so he said: "O Messenger of Allah, who is my father?" He said: and he is truly his father, so 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said: "We are pleased with Allah as our Lord, with Islam as our religion, and with Muhammad as our Messenger" to affirm the creed and that they are believers in the Messenger (may peace and blessings be upon him) with true faith. Then he said: "We seek refuge in Allah from the evil of trials" fearing that someone might stand up and ask questions that would be a trial for the people until the Day of Resurrection. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: meaning that he affirmed 'Umar in his seeking refuge from trials, and this is a sunnah (recommended practice), meaning that the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) affirmation of something is considered part of his Sunnah. He said: And that is because Paradise and Hellfire were depicted to him until he saw them beyond the wall, and had they asked him who was in them, he would have answered, because he said earlier, "Do not ask me about anything except that I will clarify it for you."
Qatadah said: He mentions this hadith in connection with this verse: And this was during the lifetime of the Prophet (may Allah's prayer and peace be upon him). As for after the death of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), it is obligatory for a person to ask about everything he needs, because if the one asked has knowledge, he will clarify it, otherwise he will remain silent. Then he mentioned other wordings in the hadith and said: And he said: or he said: And the third wording is: His saying: There is no grammatical issue with it, but what is the reason for the accusative case in ? "A'itha" is an active participle, so it is a state (hal).
