Hadith 4683

(1) His statement: “I made a transaction with the Prophet (ﷺ)”: meaning, I bought something. His statement: “waiting for you”: His waiting was due to his truthfulness in keeping his promise, not to collect payment. Al-Tayyibi said: Know that keeping a promise is an obligation in all religions, upheld by earlier prophets. Allah, Exalted and Glorified, said: And [mention] Abraham, who fulfilled [his obligations] [An-Najm: 37]. He praised his son Ismail, the ancestor of our Prophet (peace be upon them), saying: Indeed, he was true to his promise [Maryam: 54]. It is said that he made a promise to meet someone at a place, did not return to him, and waited there for a full year. [As stated in Al-Mirqat]

(۱) قوله: بايعت النبي ﷺ: أي اشتريت وقوله: انتظرك». وكان انتظاره له لصدق وعده لا لقبض ثمنه، قال الطيبي واعلم أن الوعد أمر مأمور الوفاء به في جميع الأديان حافظ عليه الرسل المتقدمون، قال تعالى: ﴿وَإِبْرَاهِيمَ الَّذِي وَفّي} (النجم: ۳۷)، ومدح ابنه إسماعيل يعني جد نبينا عليهم السلام بقوله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: ﴿إِنَّهُ كَانَ صَادِقَ الْوَعْدِ} (مريم : ٥٤ ) يقال: إنه وعد إنسانا في موضع فلم يرجع إليه، فأقام على حتى حال الحول. كذا في «المرقاة».
