English translation

4622. Narrated Ibn ‘Abbās رضي الله عنهما: Some people were asking Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ questions mockingly. A man would say, “Who is my father?” Another man whose she-camel had been lost would say, “Where is my she-camel?” So, Allāh revealed this Verse in this connection: “O you who believe! Ask not about things which, if made plain to you, may cause you trouble...” (V.5:101), and he recited the whole Verse.

4622 - حَدَّثَنَا الفَضْلُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الجُوَيْرِيَةِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: كَانَ قَوْمٌ يَسْأَلُونَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْتِهْزَاءً، فَيَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ: مَنْ أَبِي؟ وَيَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ تَضِلُّ نَاقَتُهُ: أَيْنَ نَاقَتِي؟ " فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِمْ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ: {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَسْأَلُوا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ إِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ} [المائدة: 101] حَتَّى فَرَغَ مِنَ الآيَةِ كُلِّهَا "
