{And keep yourself (O Muḥammad) patiently with those who call on their Lord (i.e.
your companions who remember their Lord with glorification, praising in prayers,
etc., and other righteous deeds, etc.) morning and afternoon, seeking His Face, and
let not your eyes overlook them} – and do not sit with the nobles – {desiring the pomp
and glitter of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made
heedless of Our Remembrance} – meaning `Uyainah and al-Aqra` – (and who follows
his own lusts and whose affair (deeds) has been lost.} [Surah al-Kahf (18): 28]
He ﷺ then said: ❝May they be doomed.❞ He ﷺ said: ❝May the affair of
`Uyainah and al-Aqra` be doomed.❞ Then he made the parable for them of two men
ﷺ and the parable of this world.” Khabbaab said: ‘We used to sit with the Prophet
ﷺ and if the time came for him to leave, we would get up and leave him, then he
would leave.’”
Sunan Ibn Maajah (4127) and the wording is his; Ibn Jareer in his Tafseer (7/201); Ibn
Abee Shaibah in his “Musnad” (477) and the wording within the bracket is from him;
Abu Ya`laa; Abu Nu`aim in “al-Ḥilyah”; Ibn al-Mundhir; Ibn Abee Ḥaatim; and Abu al-
Shaikh; Ibn Mardawaih; al-Baihaqee in “al-Dalaa’il”, and its chain is “Ṣaḥeeḥ” as al-
رضيُاهللُ‏ Booṣeeree had said. It has a supporting chain from the narration of Ibn Mas`ood
in a shorter form, reported by Imaam Aḥmad in his “Musnad” (3985), and Ibn Jareer ‏,عنه
(7/200), from the route of Ash`ath, from Kurdoos al-Tha`labee, from Ibn Mas`ood. The
chain of this narration would have been “Ṣaḥeeḥ” had it been Ash`ath Ibn Abee al-
Sha`thaa’, but the correct opinion is that he is Ash`ath Ibn Sawwaar, and he has some
weakness. 318
Sa`d (Ibn Abee Waqqaaṣ) رضي ‏ُاهلل ‏ُعنه reported: “We were six men in the company of
Allaah’s Messenger ﷺ when the Mushriks (polytheists) said to Allaah’s Messenger
said: ‘Drive them away, lest they should begin to venture against us.’ He (Sa`d) ‏:ﷺ
(The six were), myself, Ibn Mas`ood, and a person from the tribe of Hudhail, Bilaal and
two other men whose names I do not know. The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ thought
what Allaah wished him to think, and then Allaah تعاىل revealed:

chains of this narration]
