English translation

[7029] 5 - (2775) It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ūd said: "Three people gathered at the Ka'bah – two Qurashīs and a Thaqaṣī, or two Thaqaṣīs and a Qurashī. They were lacking in understanding and had large bellies. One of them said: 'Do you think that Allāh can hear what we are saying?' Another said: 'He can hear if we speak loudly, but He cannot hear if we whisper.' The last one said: 'If He can hear us when we speak loudly, then He can hear us when we whisper.' Then Allāh, Glorified and Exalted is He revealed: "And you have not been hiding yourselves (in the world), lest your ears and your eyes and your skins should testify against you; but you thought that Allāh knew not much of what you were doing."[1]

Arabic text

5 - (2775) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ الْمَكِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: " اجْتَمَعَ عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ ثَلَاثَةُ نَفَرٍ، قُرَشِيَّانِ وَثَقَفِيٌّ، أَوْ ثَقَفِيَّانِ وَقُرَشِيٌّ، قَلِيلٌ فِقْهُ قُلُوبِهِمْ، كَثِيرٌ شَحْمُ بُطُونِهِمْ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمْ: أَتُرَوْنَ اللهَ يَسْمَعُ مَا نَقُولُ؟ وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ: يَسْمَعُ، إِنْ جَهَرْنَا، وَلَا يَسْمَعُ، إِنْ أَخْفَيْنَا وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ: إِنْ كَانَ يَسْمَعُ، إِذَا جَهَرْنَا، فَهُوَ يَسْمَعُ إِذَا أَخْفَيْنَا "، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {وَمَا كُنْتُمْ تَسْتَتِرُونَ أَنْ يَشْهَدَ عَلَيْكُمْ سَمْعُكُمْ وَلَا أَبْصَارُكُمْ وَلَا جُلُودُكُمْ} [فصلت: 22] الْآيَةَ "،
