3626. It was narrated from 'Ikrimah that the Prophet ﷺ told him, meaning, Ibn Šuriyā: "I adjure you by Allāh, Who saved you from the people of Fir'awn, and parted the sea for you, and shaded you with the cloud, and sent down the manna and quails to you, and sent down the Tawrah to Mūsā - do you find stoning (mentioned) in your Book?" He said: "You have adjured me with what is tremendous, and I cannot lie to you." And he quoted the Hadīth. (Da'if)
3626 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ لَهُ: يَعْنِي لِابْنِ صُورِيَا: «أُذَكِّرُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ الَّذِي نَجَّاكُمْ مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَأَقْطَعَكُمُ الْبَحْرَ، وَظَلَّلَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْغَمَامَ، وَأَنْزَلَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَنَّ، وَالسَّلْوَى، وَأَنْزَلَ عَلَيْكُمُ التَّوْرَاةَ عَلَى مُوسَى أَتَجِدُونَ فِي كِتَابِكُمُ الرَّجْمَ؟»، قَالَ: ذَكَّرْتَنِي بِعَظِيمٍ، وَلَا يَسَعُنِي أَنْ أَكْذِبَكَ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ
