و حَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَی أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ نَحْنُ أَحَقُّ بِالشَّکِّ مِنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِذْ قَالَ رَبِّ أَرِنِي کَيْفَ تُحْيِي الْمَوْتَی قَالَ أَوَ لَمْ تُؤْمِنْ قَالَ بَلَی وَلَکِنْ لِيَطْمَئِنَّ قَلْبِي وَيَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ لُوطًا لَقَدْ کَانَ يَأْوِي إِلَی رُکْنٍ شَدِيدٍ وَلَوْ لَبِثْتُ فِي السِّجْنِ طُولَ لَبْثِ يُوسُفَ لَأَجَبْتُ الدَّاعِيَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 6142
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: We have more claim to doubt than Ibrahim (peace be upon him) when he said, My Lord, show me how thou wilt quicken the dead. He said: Believeth thou not? He said: Yes, but that my heart rest at ease (the Holy Qur'an. 260). May Lord have mercy on Lot that he wanted a strong support and had I stayed in the prison as long as Yusuf stayed I would have responded to him who invited me.
