Sahih al-Bukhari 4362 (Book 65, Hadith 90)
what he has done, and likes to be praised for what he has not done, will be punished, then all of us will
be punished.” Ibn `Abbas said, “What connection have you with this case? It was only that the Prophet (ﷺ)
called the Jews and asked them about something, and they hid the truth and told him something else,
and showed him that they deserved praise for the favor of telling him the answer to his question, and
they became happy with what they had concealed.
Then Ibn `Abbas recited:–
“(And remember) when Allah took a Covenant from those who were given the Scripture..and those
who rejoice in what they have done and love to be praised for what they have not done.’ ” (3.187-188)
Humaid bin `Abdur-Rahman bin `Auf narrated that Marwan had told him (the above narration).
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ مَرْوَانَ بِهَذَا.
