حَدَّثَنَي الصَّلْتُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِيرِينَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ الْتَقَی آدَمُ وَمُوسَی فَقَالَ مُوسَی لِآدَمَ آنْتَ الَّذِي أَشْقَيْتَ النَّاسَ وَأَخْرَجْتَهُمْ مِنْ الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ آدَمُ أَنْتَ مُوسَی الَّذِي اصْطَفَاکَ اللَّهُ بِرِسَالَتِهِ وَاصْطَفَاکَ لِنَفْسِهِ وَأَنْزَلَ عَلَيْکَ التَّوْرَاةَ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَوَجَدْتَهَا کُتِبَ عَلَيَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَنِي قَالَ نَعَمْ فَحَجَّ آدَمُ مُوسَی اليم البحر
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 4738
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "Moses argued with Adam and said to him (Adam), 'You are the one who got the people out of Paradise by your sin, and thus made them miserable." Adam replied, 'O Moses! You are the one whom Allah selected for His Message and for His direct talk. Yet you blame me for a thing which Allah had ordained for me before He created me?." Allah's Messenger further said, "So Adam overcame Moses by this Argument."
