٣٢٣٠ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَثْمَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌سَعِيدُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنِ ‌الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ ‌سَمُرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «فِي قَوْلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى: {وَجَعَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُ هُمُ الْبَاقِينَ} قَالَ: حَامٌ، وَسَامٌ، وَيَافِثٌ بِالثَّاءِ». يُقَالُ: يَافِتُ، وَيَافِثُ بِالتَّاءِ وَالثَّاءِ، وَيُقَالُ: يَفِثُ. وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ.

Commentary

Very few people from Noah's offspring believed in him, so only those were saved, and the rest of the people were all drowned because of their rebellious behavior. But Sūrat Hūd, 11:40, informs that some other people, other than the offspring of Noah, also believed. Therefore the offspring of those believers along with the offspring of the three sons of Nūh [Noah] were also spared. So it is said in Sūrat Bani Isrā'īl (Al-Isrā'): 'O the children of those whom we carried in the ship with Nūh'. (17:3)
