ONE HADITH A DAY
Narrated by Bukhari · Authentic hadith
عن أبي جحيفة رضي الله عنه قال: قلت لعلي رضي الله عنه : هل عندكم شيء من الوحي إلا ما في كتاب الله؟ قال: «لا والذي فَلَقَ الحَبَّةَ، وبَرَأَ النَّسْمَةَ، ما أعلمه إلا فَهْمَاً يُعطيه الله رجلا في القرآن، وما في هذه الصحيفة»، قلت: وما في الصحيفة؟ قال: «العَقْلُ، وفِكَاكُ الأَسير، وأن لا يُقتَلَ مسلم بكافر».
“Abu Juhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I asked ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "Do you have any of the revelation, other than what is in Allah's Book?" He said: "No, by Him Who grows the grain and originates the soul, I have nothing other than the understanding of the Qur'an, which Allah bestows upon some people, and what is written on this sheet." I asked: "What is written on that sheet?" He replied: "(Injunctions on) blood money, the freeing of captives, and that a Muslim should not be killed for a disbeliever."”
