4816. Narrated Ibn Mas'ūd (regarding) the Verse : "And you have not been hiding yourself, lest your ears, and your eyes and your skins should testify against you..." (V.41:22) While two persons from Quraish and their brother-in-law from Thaqif (or two persons from Thaqif and their brother-in-law from Quraish) were in a house, they said to each other, "Do you think that Allāh hears our talks?" Some said, "He hears a portion thereof" Others said, "If He can hear a portion of it, He can hear all of it." Then the following Verse was revealed : "And you have not been hiding yourself, lest your ears, and your eyes, and your skins should testify against you..." (V.41:22).

4816 - حَدَّثَنَا الصَّلْتُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، عَنْ رَوْحِ بْنِ القَاسِمِ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، {وَمَا كُنْتُمْ تَسْتَتِرُونَ أَنْ يَشْهَدَ، عَلَيْكُمْ سَمْعُكُمْ وَلاَ أَبْصَارُكُمْ} [فصلت: 22] الآيَةَ، قَالَ: " كَانَ رَجُلاَنِ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَخَتَنٌ لَهُمَا مِنْ ثَقِيفَ - أَوْ رَجُلاَنِ مِنْ ثَقِيفَ وَخَتَنٌ لَهُمَا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ - فِي بَيْتٍ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: أَتُرَوْنَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَسْمَعُ حَدِيثَنَا؟ قَالَ: بَعْضُهُمْ يَسْمَعُ بَعْضَهُ، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: لَئِنْ كَانَ يَسْمَعُ بَعْضَهُ لَقَدْ يَسْمَعُ كُلَّهُ، فَأُنْزِلَتْ: {وَمَا كُنْتُمْ تَسْتَتِرُونَ أَنْ يَشْهَدَ عَلَيْكُمْ سَمْعُكُمْ وَلاَ أَبْصَارُكُمْ} [فصلت: 22] الآيَةَ
