حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا عَبَّاسٍ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ فَقَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ فَبَكَى قَالَ أَيَّةُ آيَةٍ قُلْتُ إِنْ تُبْدُوا مَا فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَوْ تُخْفُوهُ يُحَاسِبْكُمْ بِهِ اللَّهُ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ إِنَّ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ حِينَ أُنْزِلَتْ غَمَّتْ أَصْحَابَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَمًّا شَدِيدًا وَغَاظَتْهُمْ غَيْظًا شَدِيدًا يَعْنِي وَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلَكْنَا إِنْ كُنَّا نُؤَاخَذُ بِمَا تَكَلَّمْنَا وَبِمَا نَعْمَلُ فَأَمَّا قُلُوبُنَا فَلَيْسَتْ بِأَيْدِينَا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُولُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا قَالَ فَنَسَخَتْهَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ آمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِلَى لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ فَتُجُوِّزَ لَهُمْ عَنْ حَدِيثِ النَّفْسِ وَأُخِذُوا بِالْأَعْمَالِ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 3071
It was narrated that Mujahid said: I entered upon Ibn 'Abbas (RA) and said: O Ibn 'Abbas, I was with Ibn 'Umar and he recited this verse and wept. He said: Which verse? I said: "and whether you disclose what is in your own selves or conceal it, Allah will call you to account for it” [al-Baqarah 2:284]. Ibn 'Abbas (RA) said: When this verse was revealed, it made the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) very sad and distressed, and they felt a great deal of anguish and said: O Messenger of Allah, we are doomed if we are to be held accountable for what we say and do; as for our hearts, they are not under our control. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said to them: "Say: We hear and we obey." Then it was abrogated by this verse: "The Messenger (Muhammad m) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. - up to - Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned" [al-Baqarah 2:285, 286], So they were forgiven for what crosses the mind but they were called to account for their actions.
