قَوْلُهُ: لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَلَكُمْ مَا كَسَبْتُمْ ولا تسئلون عما كانوا يعملون
١٢٨٧ - حَدَّثَنَا عِصَامُ بْنُ رَوَّادٍ ثنا آدَمُ ثنا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ:
تِلْكَ أُمَّةٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَلَكُمْ مَا كَسَبْتُمْ يَعْنِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَالأَسْبَاطَ. وَرُوِيَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ وَالرَّبِيعِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ نَحْوُ ذَلِكَ.
١٢٨٨ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ ثنا يَحْيَى ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنِي عَطَاءٌ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ: لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ يَعْنِي مَا عَمِلَتْ مِنْ خَيْرٍ أَوْ شَرٍّ.
قوله: وَلَكُمْ مَا كَسَبْتُمْ
١٢٨٩ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ وَهْبِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ثنا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ثنا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ هَزَّانَ الْخَوْلانِيُّ ثنا الزُّهْرِيُّ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَرْجَانَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: مَا كَسَبَتْ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ.
قَوْلُهُ: وَقَالُوا كُونُوا هُودًا أَوْ نَصَارَى تَهْتَدُوا
١٢٩٠ - ذُكِرَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ ثنا ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، أَوْ عِكْرِمَةُ عَنِ ابْنِ عباس قال:
قال عبد الله بن صُورِيَّا الأَعْوَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ما لهدى إِلا مَا نَحْنُ عَلَيْهِ فَاتَّبِعْنَا يَا مُحَمَّدُ تَهْتَدِي. وَقَالَتِ النَّصَارَى: مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِمْ وقَالُوا كُونُوا هُودًا أَوْ نَصَارَى تَهْتَدُوا
قَوْلُهُ: قُلْ بَلْ مِلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ
اختلف في تفسيره على أوجه:
[الوجه الأول]
فَأَحَدُهَا:
١٢٩١ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ثنا أَبُو صَالِحٍ- كَاتِبُ اللَّيْثِ- حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: حَنِيفًا يَقُولُ: حَاجًّا. وَرُوِيَ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ، وَالضَّحَّاكِ، وَعَطِيَّةَ، وَالسُّدِّيِّ نَحْوُ ذَلِكَ.
١٢٩٢ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ثنا قَبِيصَةُ وَعِيسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالا: ثنا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ: حَنِيفًا قَالَ: مُتَّبِعًا. وَرُوِيَ عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ نَحْوُ ذَلِكَ.
الْوَجْهُ الثَّالِثُ:
١٢٩٣ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ
