Shahih Bukhari - 3113

Dan telah bercerita kepadaku ['Abdullah bin Muhammad] telah bercerita kepada kami ['Abdur Razzaq] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Ma'mar] dari [Ayyub as-Sakhtiyaniy] dan [Katsir bin Katsir bin Al Muthallib binAbi Wada'ah] satu sama lain saling melengkapi dari [Sa'id bin Jubair] berkata [Ibnu 'Abbas radliallahu 'anhuma]; "Wanita pertama yang menggunakan ikat pinggang adalah ibu Nabi Isma'il 'Alaihissalam. Dia menggunakannya untuk menghilangkan jejak dari Sarah kemudian Ibrahim 'Alaihissalam membawanya berserta anaknya Isma'il yang saat itu ibunya masih menyusuinya hingga Ibrahim 'Alaihissalam menempatkan keduanya dekat Baitullah (Ka'bah) pada sebuah gubuk di atas zamzam di ujung al-masjidil Haram. Waktu itu di Makkah tidak ada seorangpun yang tinggal di sana dan tidak ada pula air. Ibrahim menempatkan keduanya disana dan meninggalkan semacam karung berisi kurma dan kantung/geriba berisi air. Kemudian Ibrahim pergi untuk meninggalkan keduanya. Maka Ibu Isma'il mengikutinya seraya berkata; "Wahai Ibrahim, kamu mau pergi kemana?. Apakah kamu (tega) meninggalkan kami di lembah yang tidak ada seorang manusia dan tidak ada sesuatu apapun ini". Ibu Isma'il terus saja mengulang-ulang pertanyaannya berkali-kali hingga akhirnya Ibrahim tidak menoleh lagi kepadanya. Akhirnya ibu Isma'il bertanya; "Apakah Allah yang memerintahkan kamu atas semuanya ini?". Ibrahim menjawab: "Ya". Ibu Isma'il berkata; "Kalau begitu, Allah tidak akan menelantarkan kami". Kemudian ibu Isma'il kembali dan Ibrahim melanjutkan perjalanannya hingga ketika sampai pada sebuah bukit dan orang-orang tidak melihatnya lagi, Ibrahim menghadap ke arah Ka'bah lalu berdo'a untuk mereka dengan beberapa kalimat do'a dengan mengangkat kedua belah tangannya, katanya: "Rabbi, ("sesungguhnya aku telah menempatkan sebagian dari keturunanku di lembah yang tidak mempunyai tanaman-tanaman di dekat rumah-Mu yang disucikan") hingga sampai kepada (semoga mereka menjadi hamba-hamba yang bersyukur) (QS Ibrahim ayat 37. Kemudian ibu Isma'il mulai menyusui anaknya dan minum dari air persediaan hingga ketika air yang ada pada geriba habis dia menjadi haus begitu juga anaknya. Lalu dia memandang kepada Isma'il sang bayi yang sedang meronta-ronta", atau dia berkata dengan redaksi: "Berguling-guling diatas tanah". Kemudian Hajar pergi meninggalkan Isma'il dan tidak kuat melihat keadaannya. Maka dia mendatangi bukit Shafaa sebagai gunung yang paling dekat keberadaannya dengannya. Dia berdiri disana lalu menghadap ke arah lembah dengan harapan dapat melihat orang di sana namun dia tidak melihat seorang pun. Maka dia turun dari bukit Shafaa dan ketika sampai di lembah dia menyingsingkan ujung pakaiannya lalu berusaha keras layaknya seorang manusia yang berjuang keras hingga ketika dia dapat melewati lembah dan sampai di bukit Marwah lalu beridiri di sana sambil melihat-lihat apakah ada orang di sana namun dia tidak melihat ada seorang pun. Dia melakukan hal itu sebanyak tujuh kali (antara bukit Shafa dan Marwah). Ibnu 'Abbas radliallahu 'anhu berkata; Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Itulah sa'iy yang mesti dilakukan oleh manusia (yang berhajji) antara kedua bukit itu". Ketika berada di puncak Marwah, dia mendengar ada suara, lalu dia berkata dalam hatinya "diamlah" yang Hajar maksud adalah dirinya sendiri. Kemudian dia berusaha mendengarkanya maka dia dapat mendengar suara itu lagi maka dia berkata; "Engkau telah memperdengarkan suaramu jika engkau bermaksud meminta pertolongan". Ternyata suara itu adalah suara malaikat (Jibril 'Alaihissalam) yang berada di dekat zamzam, lantas Jibril mengais air dengan tumitnya" atau katanya; dengan sayapnya hingga air keluar memancar. Ibu Isma'il mulai membuat tampungan air dengan tangannya seperti ini yaitu menciduk air dan memasukkannya ke geriba sedangkan air terus saja memancar dengan deras setelah diciduk". Ibnu 'Abbas radliallahu 'anhuma berkata; Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Semoga Allah merahmati Ummu Isma'il (Siti Hajar) karena kalau dia membiarkan zamzam" atau sabda Beliau: " kalau dia tidak segera menampung air tentulah air zamzam itu akan menjadi air yang mengalir". Akhirnya dia dapat minum air dan menyusui anaknya kembali. Kemudian malaikat berkata kepadanya: "Janganlah kalian takut ditelantarkan karena disini adalah rumah Allah, yang akan dibangun oleh anak ini dan ayahnya dan sesungguhnya Allah tidak akan menyia-nyiakan hamba-Nya". Pada saat itu Ka'bah Baitullah posisinya agak tinggi dari permukaan tanah seperti sebuah bukit kecil, yang apabila datang banjiir akan terkikis dari samping kanan dan kirinya. Ibu Isma'il, Hajar, terus melewati hidup seperti itu hingga kemudian lewat serombongan orang dari suku Jurhum atau keluarga Jurhum yang datang dari jalur bukit Kadaa' lalu singgah di hilir Makkah kemudian mereka melihat ada seekor burung sedang terbang berputar-putrar. Mereka berseru; "Burung ini pasti berputar karena mengelilingi air padahal kita mengetahui secara pasti bahwa di lembah ini tidak ada air. Akhirnya mereka mengutus satu atau dua orang yang larinya cepat dan ternyata mereka menemukan ada air. Mereka kembali dan mengabarkan keberadaan air lalu mereka mendatangi air. Beliau berkata: "Saat itu Ibu Isma'il sedang berada di dekat air". Mereka berkata kepadanya; "Apakah kamu mengizinkan kami untuk singgah bergabung denganmu di sini?". Ibu Isma'il berkata; "Ya boleh tapi kalian tidak berhak memiliki air". Mereka berkata; "Baiklah". Ibnu 'Abbas radliallahu 'anhuma berkata; Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Ibu Isma'il menjadi senang atas peristiwa ini karena ada orang-orang yang tinggal bersamanya". Akhirnya mereka pun tinggal disana dan mengirim utusan kepada keluarga mereka untuk mengajak mereka tinggal bersama-sama di sana". Ketika para keluarga dari mereka sudah tinggal bersama Hajar dan Isma'il sudah beranjak belia, dia belajar berbahasa arab dari mereka, bahkan menjadi manusia paling berharga dan paling ajaib di kalangan mereka. Kemudian Isma'il tumbuh menjadi seorang pemuda yang disenangi oleh mereka. Setelah dewasa, mereka menikahkan Isma'il dengan seorang wanita dari mereka dan tak lama kemudian ibu Isma'il meninggal dunia. Di kemudian hari Ibrahim datang setelah Isma'il menikah untuk mencari tahu apa yang telah ditinggalkannya namun dia tidak menemukan Isma'il. Ibrahim bertanya tentang Isma'il kepada istrinya Isma'il. Istrinya menjawab; "Dia sedang pergi mencari nafkah untuk kami. Lalu Ibrahim bertanya tentang kehidupan dan keadaan mereka. Istri Isma'il menjawab; "Kami mengalami banyak keburukan dan hidup kami sempit dan penuh penderitaan yang berat". Istri Isma'il mengadukan kehidupan yang dijalaninya bersama suaminya kepada Ibrahim. Ibrahim berkata; "Nanti apabila suami kamu datang sampaikan salam dariku dan katakan kepadanya agar mengubah daun pintu rumahnya". Ketika Isma'il datang dia merasakan sesuatu lalu dia bertanya kepada istrinya; "Apakah ada orang yang datang kepadamu?". Istrinya menjawab; "Ya. Tadi ada orang tua begini begini keadaannya datang kepada kami dan dia menanyakan kamu lalu aku terangkan dan dia bertanya kepadaku tentang keadaan kehidupan kita maka aku terangkan bahwa aku hidup dalam kepayahan dan penderitaan". Isma'il bertanya; "Apakah orang itu ada memberi pesan kepadamu tentang sesuatu?". Istrinya menjawab; "Ya. Dia memerintahkan aku agar aku menyampaikan salam darinya kepadamu dan berpesan agar kamu mengubah daun pintu rumah kamu". Isma'il berkata; "Dialah ayahku dan sungguh dia telah memerintahkan aku untuk menceraikan kamu maka itu kembalilah kamu kepada keluargamu". Maka Isma'il menceraikan istrinya. Kemudian Isma'il menikah lagi dengan seorang wanita lain dari kalangan penduduk itu lalu Ibrahim pergi lagi meninggalkan mereka dalam kurun waktu yang dikehendaki Allah dan setelah itu datang kembali untuk menemui mereka namun dia tidak mendapatkan Isma'il hingga akhirnya dia mendatangi istri Isma'il lalu bertanya kepadanya tentang Isma'il. Istrinya menjawab; "Dia sedang pergi mencari nafkah untuk kami. Lalu Ibrahim bertanya lagi; "Bagaimana keadaan kalian". Dia bertanya kepada istrinya Isma'il tentang kehidupan dan keadaan hirup mereka. Istrinya menjawab; "Kami selalu dalam keadaan baik-baik saja dan cukup". Istri Isma'il memuji Allah. Ibrahim bertanya; 'Apa makanan kalian? '. Istri Isma'il menjawab; "Daging". Ibrahim bertanya lagi; "Apa minuman kalian? '. Istri Isma'il menjawab; "Air". Maka Ibrahim berdo'a: "Ya Allah, berkahilah mereka dalam daging dan air mereka". Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Saat itu tidak ada biji-bijian di Makkah dan seandainya ada tentu Ibrahim sudah mendo'akannya". Dia berkata; "Dan dari doa Ibrahim tentang daging dan air itulah, tidak ada seorangpun selain penduduk Makkah yang mengeluh bila yang mereka dapati hanya daging dan air". Ibrahim selanjutnya berkata; "Jika nanti suamimu datang, sampaikan salam dariku kepadanya dan perintahkanlah dia agar memperkokoh daun pintu rumahnya". Ketika Isma'il datang, dia berkata: "Apakah ada orang yang datang kepadamu?". Istrinya menjawab; "Ya. Tadi ada orang tua dengan penampilan sangat baik datang kepada kami". Istrinya mengagumi Ibrahim. Dia bertanya kepadaku tentang kamu maka aku terangkan lalu dia bertanya kepadaku tentang keadaan hidup kita maka aku jawab bahwa aku dalam keadaan baik-baik saja".". Isma'il bertanya; "Apakah orang itu ada memberi pesan kepadamu tentang sesuatu?". Istrinya menjawab; "Ya. Dia memerintahkan aku agar aku menyampaikan salam darinya kepadamu dan berpesan agar kamu mempertahankan daun pintu rumah kamu". Isma'il berkata; "Dialah ayahku dan daun pintu yang dimaksud adalah kamu. Dia memerintahkanku untuk mempertahankan kamu". Kemudian Ibrahim meninggalkan mereka lagi untuk waktu tertentu sebagaimana dikehendaki Allah, lalu datang kembali setelah itu saat Isma'il meletakkan anak panahnya di bawah sebatang pohon dekat zamzam. Ketika dia melihatnya, dia segera menghampirinya dan berbuat sebagaimana layaknya seorang ayah terhadap anaknya dan seorang anak terhadap ayahnya kemudian dia berkata; "Wahai Isma'il, Allah memerintahkanku dengan suatu perintah". Isma'il berkata; "Lakukanlah apa yang diperintahkan Rabbmu". Ibrahim berkata lagi; Apakah kamu akan membantu aku?". Isma'il berkata; "Ya aku akan membantumu". Ibrahim berkata; "Allah memerintahkan aku agar membangun rumah di tempat ini". Ibrahim menunjuk ke suatu tempat yang agak tinggi di banding sekelilingnya". Perawi berkata; "Dari tempat itulah keduanya meninggikan pondasi Baitullah, Isma'il bekerja mengangkut batu-batu sedangkan Ibrahim yang menyusunnya (membangunnya) hingga ketika bangunan sudah tinggi, Isma'il datang membawa batu ini lalu meletakkannya untuk Ibrahim agar bisa naik di atasnya sementara Isma'il memberikan batu-batu' Keduanya bekerja sambil mengucapkan kalimat do'a; ("Rabb kami, terimalah (amal) dari kami sesunggunya Engkau Maha Mendengar dan Maha Mengetahui". Keduanya terus saja membangun hingga mengelilingi Baitullah dan keduanya terus saja membaca do'a; ("Rabb kami, terimalah (amal) dari kami sesungguhnya Engkau Maha Mendengar dan Maha Mengetahui"). (QS. Albaqarah 127). (HR. Bukhari: 3113)

Narrated Ibn ʿAbbas: The first lady to use a girdle was the mother of Ishmael. She used a girdle so that she might hide her tracks from Sarah. Abraham brought her and her son Ishmael while she was suckling him, to a place near the Kaʿbah under a tree on the spot of Zam-zam, at the highest place in the mosque. During those days there was nobody in Mecca, nor was there any water So he made them sit over there and placed near them a leather bag containing some dates, and a small water-skin containing some water, and set out homeward. Ishmael's mother followed him saying, "O Abraham! Where are you going, leaving us in this valley where there is no person whose company we may enjoy, nor is there anything (to enjoy)?" She repeated that to him many times, but he did not look back at her Then she asked him, "Has Allah ordered you to do so?" He said, "Yes." She said, "Then He will not neglect us," and returned while Abraham proceeded onwards, and on reaching the Thaniya where they could not see him, he faced the Kaʿbah, and raising both hands, invoked Allah saying the following prayers: 'O our Lord! I have made some of my offspring dwell in a valley without cultivation, by Your Sacred House (Kaba at Mecca) in order, O our Lord, that they may offer prayer perfectly. So fill some hearts among men with love towards them, and (O Allah) provide them with fruits, so that they may give thanks.' (14.37) Ishmael's mother went on suckling Ishmael and drinking from the water (she had). When the water in the water-skin had all been used up, she became thirsty and her child also became thirsty. She started looking at him (i.e. Ishmael) tossing in agony; She left him, for she could not endure looking at him, and found that the mountain of Safa was the nearest mountain to her on that land. She stood on it and started looking at the valley keenly so that she might see somebody, but she could not see anybody. Then she descended from Safa and when she reached the valley, she tucked up her robe and ran in the valley like a person in distress and trouble, till she crossed the valley and reached the Marwa mountain where she stood and started looking, expecting to see somebody, but she could not see anybody. She repeated that (running between Safa and Marwa) seven times." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "This is the source of the tradition of the walking of people between them (i.e. Safa and Marwa). When she reached the Marwa (for the last time) she heard a voice and she asked herself to be quiet and listened attentively. She heard the voice again and said, 'O, (whoever you may be)! You have made me hear your voice; have you got something to help me?" And behold! She saw an angel at the place of Zam-zam, digging the earth with his heel (or his wing), till water flowed from that place. She started to make something like a basin around it, using her hand in this way, and started filling her water-skin with water with her hands, and the water was flowing out after she had scooped some of it." The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "May Allah bestow Mercy on Ishmael's mother! Had she let the Zam-zam (flow without trying to control it) (or had she not scooped from that water) (to fill her water-skin), Zam-zam would have been a stream flowing on the surface of the earth." The Prophet (ﷺ) further added, "Then she drank (water) and suckled her child. The angel said to her, 'Don't be afraid of being neglected, for this is the House of Allah which will be built by this boy and his father, and Allah never neglects His people.' The House (i.e. Kaba) at that time was on a high place resembling a hillock, and when torrents came, they flowed to its right and left. She lived in that way till some people from the tribe of Jurhum or a family from Jurhum passed by her and her child, as they (i.e. the Jurhum people) were coming through the way of Kada'. They landed in the lower part of Mecca where they saw a bird that had the habit of flying around water and not leaving it. They said, 'This bird must be flying around water, though we know that there is no water in this valley.' They sent one or two messengers who discovered the source of water, and returned to inform them of the water. So, they all came (towards the water)." The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "Ishmael's mother was sitting near the water. They asked her, 'Do you allow us to stay with you?" She replied, 'Yes, but you will have no right to possess the water.' They agreed to that." The Prophet (ﷺ) further said, "Ishmael's mother was pleased with the whole situation as she used to love to enjoy the company of the people. So, they settled there, and later on they sent for their families who came and settled with them so that some families became permanent residents there. The child (i.e. Ishmael) grew up and learnt Arabic from them and (his virtues) caused them to love and admire him as he grew up, and when he reached the age of puberty they made him marry a woman from amongst them. After Ishmael's mother had died, Abraham came after Ishmael's marriage in order to see his family that he had left before, but he did not find Ishmael there. When he asked Ishmael's wife about him, she replied, 'He has gone in search of our livelihood.' Then he asked her about their way of living and their condition, and she replied, 'We are living in misery; we are living in hardship and destitution,' complaining to him. He said, 'When your husband returns, convey my salutation to him and tell him to change the threshold of the gate (of his house).' When Ishmael came, he seemed to have felt something unusual, so he asked his wife, 'Has anyone visited you?' She replied, 'Yes, an old man of so-and-so description came and asked me about you and I informed him, and he asked about our state of living, and I told him that we were living in a hardship and poverty.' On that Ishmael said, 'Did he advise you anything?' She replied, 'Yes, he told me to convey his salutation to you and to tell you to change the threshold of your gate.' Ishmael said, 'It was my father, and he has ordered me to divorce you. Go back to your family.' So, Ishmael divorced her and married another woman from amongst them (i.e. Jurhum). Then Abraham stayed away from them for a period as long as Allah wished and called on them again but did not find Ishmael. So he came to Ishmael's wife and asked her about Ishmael. She said, 'He has gone in search of our livelihood.' Abraham asked her, 'How are you getting on?' asking her about their sustenance and living. She replied, 'We are prosperous and well-off (i.e. we have everything in abundance).' Then she thanked Allah' Abraham said, 'What kind of food do you eat?' She said. 'Meat.' He said, 'What do you drink?' She said, 'Water." He said, "O Allah! Bless their meat and water." The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "At that time they did not have grain, and if they had grain, he would have also invoked Allah to bless it." The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "If somebody has only these two things as his sustenance, his health and disposition will be badly affected, unless he lives in Mecca." The Prophet added," Then Abraham said Ishmael's wife, "When your husband comes, give my regards to him and tell him that he should keep firm the threshold of his gate.' When Ishmael came back, he asked his wife, 'Did anyone call on you?' She replied, 'Yes, a good-looking old man came to me,' so she praised him and added. 'He asked about you, and I informed him, and he asked about our livelihood and I told him that we were in a good condition.' Ishmael asked her, 'Did he give you any piece of advice?' She said, 'Yes, he told me to give his regards to you and ordered that you should keep firm the threshold of your gate.' On that Ishmael said, 'It was my father, and you are the threshold (of the gate). He has ordered me to keep you with me.' Then Abraham stayed away from them for a period as long as Allah wished, and called on them afterwards. He saw Ishmael under a tree near Zamzam, sharpening his arrows. When he saw Abraham, he rose up to welcome him (and they greeted each other as a father does with his son or a son does with his father). Abraham said, 'O Ishmael! Allah has given me an order.' Ishmael said, 'Do what your Lord has ordered you to do.' Abraham asked, 'Will you help me?' Ishmael said, 'I will help you.' Abraham said, Allah has ordered me to build a house here,' pointing to a hillock higher than the land surrounding it." The Prophet added, "Then they raised the foundations of the House (i.e. the Kaʿbah). Ishmael brought the stones and Abraham was building, and when the walls became high, Ishmael brought this stone and put it for Abraham who stood over it and carried on building, while Ishmael was handing him the stones, and both of them were saying, 'O our Lord! Accept (this service) from us, Verily, You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.' the Prophet (ﷺ) added, "Then both of them went on building and going round the Kaʿbah saying: O our Lord ! Accept (this service) from us, Verily, You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing." (2.127) (Bukhari: 3113)
