Writing down knowledge

لَمَّا اشْتَدَّ بِالنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَجَعُهُ قَالَ " ائْتُونِي بِكِتَابٍ أَكْتُبُ لَكُمْ كِتَابًا لاَ تَضِلُّوا بَعْدَهُ ". قَالَ عُمَرُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم غَلَبَهُ الْوَجَعُ وَعِنْدَنَا كِتَابُ اللَّهِ حَسْبُنَا فَاخْتَلَفُوا وَكَثُرَ اللَّغَطُ. قَالَ " قُومُوا عَنِّي، وَلاَ يَنْبَغِي عِنْدِي التَّنَازُعُ ". فَخَرَجَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الرَّزِيَّةَ كُلَّ الرَّزِيَّةِ مَا حَالَ بَيْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَبَيْنَ كِتَابِهِ.

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ

Translation

Ibn Abbas reported: When the pain of the Prophet ﷺ grew severe, he said: “Bring me writing material so that I may write for you a document after which you will not go astray.” Umar said: “The Prophet ﷺ is overcome by pain, and we have the Book of Allah; it is sufficient for us.” Then they disagreed, and the clamour increased. He said: “Get up and leave me; disputing is not fitting in my presence.” Ibn Abbas went out saying: “The calamity, the whole calamity, is what came between the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his document.”

Translator’s note: The last sentence is related about Ibn Abbas by a later narrator.

Ibn Abbas berichtete: Als der Schmerz des Propheten ﷺ heftig wurde, sagte er: „Bringt mir ein Schreibzeug, damit ich euch ein Schriftstück schreibe, nach dem ihr nicht in die Irre gehen werdet.“ Umar sagte: „Der Prophet ﷺ ist vom Schmerz überwältigt, und wir haben das Buch Allahs; es genügt uns.“ Da wurden sie uneins, und das Stimmengewirr nahm zu. Er sagte: „Steht auf und geht von mir weg! Streit ziemt sich nicht bei mir.“ Da ging Ibn Abbas hinaus und sagte: „Das Unglück, das ganze Unglück ist, was zwischen den Gesandten Allahs ﷺ und sein Schriftstück trat.“

Translator’s note: Den letzten Satz berichtet ein späterer Überlieferer über Ibn Abbas.

Türkçe

İbn Abbâs (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Nebî'nin ﷺ ağrısı şiddetlenince: “Bana yazı malzemesi getirin, size bir yazı yazayım ki ondan sonra sapıtmayasınız.” buyurdu. Ömer (r.a.): “Nebî'ye ﷺ ağrı galebe çalmış; yanımızda Allah'ın Kitabı var, o bize yeter.” dedi. Bunun üzerine ihtilaf ettiler ve gürültü çoğaldı. Nebî ﷺ: “Yanımdan kalkın! Yanımda çekişmek yakışmaz.” buyurdu. İbn Abbâs şöyle diyerek çıktı: “Musibet, musibetin ta kendisi, Resûlullah ﷺ ile yazısı arasına giren şeydir.”

Translator’s note: Son cümleyi sonraki bir râvi İbn Abbâs hakkında nakletmektedir.
