حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ النَّسَائِيُّ المعنى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ أنبأنا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْمُقْرِئُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أخبرنا حَرْمَلَةُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عِمْرَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو يُونُسَ سُلَيْمُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقْرَأُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَنْ تُؤَدُّوا الأَمَانَاتِ إِلَى أَهْلِهَا إِلَى قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًا[ سورة النساء آية 58]، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَضَعُ إِبْهَامَهُ عَلَى أُذُنِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالَّتِي تَلِيهَا عَلَى عَيْنِهِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ:‏‏‏‏ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَؤُهَا وَيَضَعُ إِصْبَعَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ ابْنُ يُونُسَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ الْمُقْرِئُ:‏‏‏‏ يَعْنِي إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ بَصِيرٌ:‏‏‏‏ يَعْنِي أَنَّ لِلَّهِ سَمْعًا وَبَصَرًا،‏‏‏‏ قال أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَهَذَا رَدٌّ عَلَى الْجَهْمِيَّةِ.

I heard Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ recite this verse: “Allah doth command you to render back your trusts to those to whom they are due” up to “For Allah is he who heareth and seeth all things”. He said: I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم putting his thumb on his ear and finger on his eye. Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ said: I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم reciting this verse and putting his fingers. Ibn Yunus said that al-Muqri said. “Allah hears and sees” means that Allah has the power of hearing and seeing. Abu Dawud said: This is a refutation of the Jahmiyyah.
