became angry and ascended the pulpit and said, “I will answer whatever questions you may ask me
today.” I looked right and left and saw everyone covering his face with his garment and weeping.
Behold ! There was a man who, on quarreling with the people, used to be called as a son of a person
other than h is father. He said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Who is my father?” The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, “Your
father is Hudhaifa.” And then `Umar got up and said, “We accept Allah as our Lord, and Islam as
(our) religion, and Muhammad as (our) Apostle; and we seek refuge with Allah from the afflictions.”
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, ” I have never seen a day like today in its good and its evil for Paradise and the
Hell Fire were displayed in front of me, till I saw them just beyond this wall.” Qatada, when relating
this Hadith, used to mention the following Verse:–
‘O you who believe! Ask not questions about things which, If made plain to you, May cause you
trouble. (5.101)

The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
