حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي تَرَكْتُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ رَجُلًا يُفَسِّرُ الْقُرْآنَ بِرَأْيِهِ يَقُولُ فِي هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ إِلَى آخِرِهَا يَغْشَاهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ دُخَانٌ يَأْخُذُ بِأَنْفَاسِهِمْ حَتَّى يُصِيبَهُمْ مِنْهُ كَهَيْئَةِ الزُّكَامِ قَالَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ مَنْ عَلِمَ عِلْمًا فَلْيَقُلْ بِهِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَعْلَمْ فَلْيَقُلْ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ فَإِنَّ مِنْ فِقْهِ الرَّجُلِ أَنْ يَقُولَ لِمَا لَا يَعْلَمُ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ هَذَا لِأَنَّ قُرَيْشًا لَمَّا اسْتَعْصَتْ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَعَا عَلَيْهِمْ بِسِنِينَ كَسِنِي يُوسُفَ فَأَصَابَهُمْ قَحْطٌ وَجَهِدُوا حَتَّى أَكَلُوا الْعِظَامَ وَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَيَنْظُرُ مَا بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ كَهَيْئَةِ الدُّخَانِ مِنْ الْجَهْدِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ يَغْشَى النَّاسَ هَذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ فَأَتَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَسْقِ اللَّهَ لِمُضَرَ فَإِنَّهُمْ قَدْ هَلَكُوا قَالَ فَدَعَا لَهُمْ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ فَلَمَّا أَصَابَهُمْ الْمَرَّةَ الثَّانِيَةَ عَادُوا فَنَزَلَتْ يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ الْبَطْشَةَ الْكُبْرَى إِنَّا مُنْتَقِمُونَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ

مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 3613

It was narrated that Masrooq said: A man came to 'Abdullah (RA) and said: I have left a man in the mosque who was interpreting the Qur'an according to his own opinion. He interpreted this verse, "the Day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke" by saying: On the Day of Resurrection a smoke will overwhelm the people which they will inhale and they will get something like a cold from it. 'Abdullah said: Whoever knows something, let him speak of it, and whoever does not know, let him say: Allah knows best. It is a part of a man's understanding of religion to say regarding that of which he has no knowledge of it, Allah knows best. This (verse) was (revealed) because when Quraish displayed a stubborn attitude towards the Prophet (PBUH), he prayed against them and prayed for a famine like the famine of Yoosuf, and they were so afflicted by severe drought and famine that they even ate bones and a man would look at the sky and see something like smoke between him and it, because of hunger. Then a man came to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and said: O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah for rain for Mudar, for they are dying. So he prayed to Allah for them, and Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed the words: "Verily, We shall remove the torment for a while." [ad- Dukhan 44:15]. But when it rained a second time, they reverted to their former ways. Then Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed the words: "On the Day when We shall seize you with the greatest seizure (punishment). Verily, We will exact retribution" [ad-Dukhan 44:16] This refers to the day of Badr.
