عربی (اصل)
حَدَّثَنَا أَسْبَاطٌ وَابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ الْمَعْنَى قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا مُطَرِّفٌ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ عَنْ أَبِي الرَّضْرَاضِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ أُسَلِّمُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَيَرُدُّ عَلَيَّ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا فَوَجَدْتُ فِي نَفْسِي فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كُنْتُ أُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكَ وَأَنْتَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَتَرُدُّ عَلَيَّ وَإِنِّي سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْكَ فَلَمْ تَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحْدِثُ فِي أَمْرِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ.
انگریزی ترجمہ
I used to greet the Prophet (peace be upon him) while he was in prayer, and he would return my greeting. One day I greeted him and he did not return the greeting, and I felt hurt. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I used to greet you while you were in prayer and you would return my greeting, but when I greeted you (today) you did not return it.' The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'Indeed Allah introduces new rulings in His commands as He wills.'
