Nabiyyul Laah Eesaa; an Epitome of Trust in Allaah

Monday 12-Nov-2018, 1:19PM / 1174

Aboo Hurayrah (radhiyal Laahu 'anh) reported: the Prophet (sallal Laahu 'alayhi wasallam) said:

" Eesaa bn Maryam saw a man while committing theft and he inquired, are you stealing? The man said: 'No! by Allaah Who has no partners in worship'. Eesaa thereupon said, 'I believe in Allaah and I belie my eyes.'

Imaam Ibn Katheer commented thus:

This shows his untainted good nature as he (alayhis Salaam) thought no one can ever bear false witness with Allaah even if such witness contracts what he saw with his own eyes. He therefore accepted the man's excuse and held his own eyes with contempt'.
