He says: It is a transgression on your part to prohibit what I have made lawful for you, and Allah does not like that.
His saying, the Almighty: "And eat of what Allah has provided for you, lawful and good."
[6699] And by this chain, from Muqatil ibn Hayyan, regarding His saying: "And eat of what Allah has provided for you, lawful and good." The Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) sent for ‘Uthman ibn Maz‘un and a group of his companions and said: "Indeed, my religion consists of marriage, eating food, and drinking beverages. So adhere to what Allah has obligated upon you from fasting and prayer."
His saying, the Almighty: "And fear Allah."
[6700] Muhammad ibn al-‘Abbas narrated to us, Muhammad ibn ‘Amr Junayj narrated to us, Salamah narrated to us, he said: Muhammad ibn Ishaq said regarding "And fear Allah": Meaning, obey Allah.
His saying, the Almighty: "Allah will not impose blame upon you for what is unintentional in your oaths."
[The First Aspect]
[6701] Harun ibn [---] narrated to us, Ishaq al-Hamdani narrated to us, ‘Abdah ibn Sulayman narrated to us, from Hisham ibn ‘Urwah, from his father, from ‘A’ishah, regarding the saying of Allah: "Allah will not impose blame upon you for what is unintentional in your oaths." She said: It is a man’s saying, "No, by Allah" and "Yes, by Allah." (1)
[6702] My father narrated to us, Abu Salih, the scribe of al-Layth, narrated to us, Ibn Lahi‘ah narrated to me, from Abu al-Aswad, from ‘Urwah ibn al-Zubayr, who said: ‘A’ishah used to say that the unintentional (laghw) is only in jest and joking, and it is a man’s saying: "No, by Allah" and "Yes, by Allah"; for that, there is no expiation. The expiation is only for what his heart has intended, such as if he were to do it then not do it. [6703] It has been narrated from Ibn ‘Umar, Ibn ‘Abbas (in one of his two sayings), al-Sha‘bi, ‘Ikrimah (in one of his two sayings), ‘Ata’, al-Qasim ibn Muhammad, Mujahid (in one of his two sayings), ‘Urwah ibn al-Zubayr, Ibn Salih, al-Dahhak (in one of his two sayings), Abu Qilabah, and al-Zuhri, something similar to that.
[The Second Aspect]
It is one of the two sayings of ‘A’ishah.
[6704] It was read to Yunus ibn ‘Abd al-A‘la, Ibn Wahb narrated to us, the reliable one informed me, from Ibn Shihab, from ‘Urwah ibn al-Zubayr, from ‘A’ishah, that she used to interpret this verse, meaning His saying:

يَقُولُ: هُوَ اعْتِدَاءٌ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تُحَرِّمُوا مَا أَحْلَلْتُ لَكُمْ وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ ذَلِكَ
قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: وَكُلُوا مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللَّهُ حَلالا طَيِّبًا
٦٦٩٩ - وَبِهِ عَنْ مُقَاتِلِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ قَوْلَهُ: وَكُلُوا مِمَّا رِزْقَكُمُ اللَّهُ حَلالا طَيِّبًا فَبَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مظعون ورهط من أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ فِي دِينِي التَّزْوِيجَ وَأَكْلَ الطَّعَامِ وَشُرْبَ الشَّرَابِ فَخُذُوا بِمَا افْتَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنَ الصِّيَامِ وَالصَّلاةِ.
قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهِ
٦٧٠٠ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو زُنَيْجٌ، ثنا سَلَمَةُ قَالَ: قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ: أَيْ أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ.
قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: لَا يُؤَاخِذُكُمُ اللَّهُ بِاللَّغْوِ فِي أَيْمَانِكُمْ
[الوجه الأول]
٦٧٠١ - حدثنا هارون بن، ثنا إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ: لَا يُؤَاخِذُكُمُ اللَّهُ بِاللَّغْوِ فِي أَيْمَانِكُمْ قَالَتْ: هُوَ قَوْلُ الرَّجُلِ لَا وَاللَّهِ وَبَلَى وَاللَّهِ «١» .
٦٧٠٢ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، ثنا أَبُو صَالِحٍ كَاتِبُ اللَّيْثِ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الأَسْوَدِ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ: كَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ تَقُولُ، إِنَّمَا اللَّغْوُ فِي الْمُزَاحَةِ وَالْهَزْلِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الرَّجُلِ لَا وَاللَّهِ، وَبَلَى وَاللَّهِ فَذَلِكَ لَا كَفَّارَةَ فِيهِ إِنَّمَا الْكَفَّارَةُ فِيمَا عَقَدَ عَلَيْهِ قَلْبَهُ مِثْلَ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهُ ثُمَّ لَا يَفْعَلُهُ [٦٧٠٣] وَرُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي أَحَدِ أَقْوَالِهِ وَالشَّعْبِيِّ وَعِكْرِمَةَ فِي أَحَدِ قَوْلَيْهِ وَعَطَاءٍ وَالْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَمُجَاهِدٍ فِي أَحَدِ قَوْلَيْهِ وَعُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ وَابْنِ صَالِحٍ وَالضَّحَّاكِ فِي أَحَدِ قَوْلَيْهِ وَأَبِي قِلابَةَ وَالزُّهْرِيِّ نَحْوُ ذَلِكَ.
