حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَمَّا دَعَا قُرَيْشًا كَذَّبُوهُ وَاسْتَعْصَوْا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَيْهِمْ بِسَبْعٍ كَسَبْعِ يُوسُفَ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَأَصَابَتْهُمْ سَنَةٌ حَصَّتْ ـ يَعْنِي ـ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ حَتَّى كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ الْمَيْتَةَ فَكَانَ يَقُومُ أَحَدُهُمْ فَكَانَ يَرَى بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ مِثْلَ الدُّخَانِ مِنَ الْجَهْدِ وَالْجُوعِ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ‏{‏فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ * يَغْشَى النَّاسَ هَذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ‏}‏ حَتَّى بَلَغَ ‏{‏إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلاً إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ‏}‏ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَفَيُكْشَفُ عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ وَالْبَطْشَةُ الْكُبْرَى يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ‏.‏

Narrated Masruq:I came upon `Abdullah and he said, "When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) invited Quraish (to Islam), they disbelieved him and stood against him. So he (the Prophet) said, "O Allah! Help me against them by afflicting them with seven years of famine similar to the seven years of Joseph.' So they were stricken with a year of drought that destroyed everything, and they started eating dead animals, and if one of them got up he would see something like smoke between him and the sky from the severe fatigue and hunger." `Abdullah then recited:-- 'Then watch you for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible, covering the people. This is a painful torment... (till he reached) ........ We shall indeed remove the punishment for a while, but truly you will revert (to heathenism): (44.10-15) `Abdullah added: "Will the punishment be removed from them on the Day of Resurrection?" He added," The severe grasp" was the Day of the Battle of Badr

Masruq bataate hain: Main Abdullah ke paas aaya, unhone kaha, 'Jab Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ne Quraish ko (Islam ki) dawat di, unhone unka inkaar kiya aur unke khilaaf khade ho gaye. To unhone (Nabi ne) kaha, "Aye Allah! Meri madad kar unke khilaaf, unpar Yusuf jaise saat saal ka qehat daal de." To unpar aisa qehat aaya jisne sab kuch tabaah kar diya, aur wo murda jaanwar khaane lage, aur agar unmein se koi khada hota to shiddat ki thakaan aur bhook ki wajah se usse aur aasman ke beech dhuaan jaisi cheez dikhti.' Abdullah ne phir ye Aayat padhi: 'To (Aye Muhammad) us din ka intezaar karo jab aasman saaf zaahir dhuaan laayega jo logon ko dhaank lega; ye dardnaak azaab hai... (yahaan tak ke) Hum kuch waqt ke liye azaab hataa denge, magar tum zaroor (kufr ki taraf) laut jaaoge.' (44:10-15) Abdullah ne aage kaha, 'Kya Qayamat ke din unse azaab hataaya jaayega?' Unhone aage kaha, '"Sakht pakad" jang-e-Badr ka din tha.'
