اخبرنا ابو زكريا العنبري، حدثنا محمد بن عبد السلام، حدثنا إسحاق ابن إبراهيم، اخبرنا جرير، عن عطاء بن السائب، عن سعيد بن جبير، عن ابن عباس قال: لما انزل الله: ﴿ولا تقربوا مال اليتيم إلا بالتي هي احسن﴾ [الانعام:152]، و ﴿إن الذين ياكلون اموال اليتامى ظلما إنما ياكلون في بطونهم نارا وسيصلون سعيرا﴾ [النساء: 10]، انطلق من كان عنده يتيم فعزل طعامه من طعامه، وشرابه من شرابه، فجعل يفضل الشيء من طعامه فيحبس له حتى ياكله او يفسد، فاشتد ذلك عليهم، فذكروا ذلك لرسول الله ﷺ، فانزل الله ﷿: ﴿ويسالونك عن اليتامى قل إصلاح لهم خير وإن تخالطوهم فإخوانكم﴾ [البقرة: 220]، فخلطوا طعامهم بطعامهم، وشرابهم بشرابهم (1).
هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد، ولم يخرجاه.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: When Allah Almighty revealed these verses: "And do not approach the wealth of the orphan except in the way that is best" [Surah al-An'am: 152] and "Indeed, those who consume the wealth of orphans unjustly are only consuming fire into their bellies, and they will be burned in a blazing Fire" [Surah an-Nisa: 10] , everyone who had an orphan with him separated his own food and drink from the orphan's food and drink, to the extent that if something was left over from his (the orphan's) food, it would be kept aside for him until either he ate it or it spoiled. This situation became very hard for them, so they mentioned it to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: "And they ask you about orphans. Say: Setting right their affairs is best, and if you mix your affairs with theirs, they are your brothers" [Surah al-Baqarah: 220] . So (after that) they mixed their food and drink with their food and drink. This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
