قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم «أَنَا أَعْلَمُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ»

The saying of the Prophet ﷺ: “I am the one among you who knows Allah best.”

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا أَمَرَهُمْ أَمَرَهُمْ مِنَ الأَعْمَالِ بِمَا يُطِيقُونَ قَالُوا إِنَّا لَسْنَا كَهَيْئَتِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ غَفَرَ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ. فَيَغْضَبُ حَتَّى يُعْرَفَ الْغَضَبُ فِي وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ " إِنَّ أَتْقَاكُمْ وَأَعْلَمَكُمْ بِاللَّهِ أَنَا ".

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ

Translation

Aishah reported: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded them, he commanded them to do deeds they were able to bear. They said: “We are not like you, O Messenger of Allah. Allah has forgiven you your past and your future sins.” Then he became angry until the anger could be seen on his face, and then he said: “The most God-fearing of you and the one who knows Allah best is I.”

Translator’s note: The Companions' words echo Qur'an 48:2.

Aischa berichtete: Wenn der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ ihnen etwas gebot, gebot er ihnen von den Taten das, was sie zu leisten vermochten. Sie sagten: „Wir sind nicht wie du, o Gesandter Allahs. Allah hat dir deine früheren und deine späteren Sünden vergeben.“ Da wurde er zornig, sodass man den Zorn in seinem Gesicht erkannte; dann sagte er: „Der Gottesfürchtigste unter euch und derjenige, der Allah am besten kennt, bin ich.“

Translator’s note: Die Worte der Gefährten lehnen sich an Koran 48:2 an.

Âişe (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Resûlullah ﷺ onlara bir şey emrettiğinde, amellerden güç yetirebilecekleri şeyleri emrederdi. Onlar: “Ey Allah'ın Resûlü, biz senin gibi değiliz. Allah senin geçmiş ve gelecek günahlarını bağışlamıştır.” dediler. Bunun üzerine öfkesi yüzünden anlaşılacak kadar öfkelendi, sonra şöyle buyurdu: “Sizin Allah'tan en çok korkanınız ve Allah'ı en iyi bileniniz benim.”

Translator’s note: Sahâbîlerin sözü Kur'ân 48:2'ye dayanır.
