Hadith 12
۞
11. Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman Al-Saylami Al-Misry, from his father, from Abu Baseer, who has narrated: Abu Abdullah (asws) said when the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic was recited to him (asws); “[45:29] This is Our book that speaks against you with the truth”, he (asws) said
‘Surely, the Book has never Spoken and will never Speak, but the Messenger (saww) of Allah (azwj), he (saww) is the speaker of the Book. Allah (azwj) has Said: “[45:29] This (the Messenger (saww) of Allah (azwj) )is Our book that speaks against you with the truth”. The narrator said, ‘I asked, ‘May I be sacrificed for you (asws), we do not read it as such’. He (asws) said: ‘By Allah (azwj), this is how Gabriel came down with it upon Muhammad (saww), but this is what was altered from the Book of Allah (azwj)’.
سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ الدَّيْلَمِيِّ الْمِصْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ
قُلْتُ لَهُ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ هذا كِتابُنا يَنْطِقُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ قَالَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْكِتَابَ لَمْ يَنْطِقْ وَ لَنْ يَنْطِقَ وَ لَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) هُوَ النَّاطِقُ بِالْكِتَابِ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ هَذَا كِتَابُنَا يُنْطَقُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ قَالَ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنَّا لَا نَقْرَؤُهَا هَكَذَا فَقَالَ هَكَذَا وَ اللَّهِ نَزَلَ بِهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ لَكِنَّهُ فِيمَا حُرِّفَ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ .
