حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ وَحَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ أَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَإِذَا النَّاسُ يَنْتَظِرُونَ الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ أَهْلِ هَذِهِ الْأَدْيَانِ أَحَدٌ يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ غَيْرُكُمْ قَالَ وَأَنْزَلَ هَؤُلَاءِ الْآيَاتِ { لَيْسُوا سَوَاءً مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ حَتَّى بَلَغَ وَمَا تَفْعَلُوا مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلَنْ تُكْفَرُوهُ وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِالْمُتَّقِينَ }.

Abu al-Nadr and Hasan ibn Musa told us, they said: Shayban told us, from Asim, from Zirr, from Ibn Mas'ud, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, delayed the night prayer ('Isha), then went out to the mosque and found the people waiting for the prayer. He said: "Indeed, none among the followers of these religions remembers Allah at this hour except you." He said: And these verses were then revealed: "They are not all the same; among the People of the Scripture is a community standing [in obedience]..." up to "...and whatever good you do, it will not be denied you, and Allah is Knowing of the righteous."
