حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا لَمَّا أَبْطَئُوا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِالإِسْلاَمِ قَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنِيهِمْ بِسَبْعٍ كَسَبْعِ يُوسُفَ ‏"‏ فَأَصَابَتْهُمْ سَنَةٌ حَصَّتْ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ حَتَّى أَكَلُوا الْعِظَامَ حَتَّى جَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَيَرَى بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهَا مِثْلَ الدُّخَانِ قَالَ اللَّهُ ‏{‏فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ‏}‏ قَالَ اللَّهُ ‏{‏إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلاً إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ‏}‏ أَفَيُكْشَفُ عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَقَدْ مَضَى الدُّخَانُ وَمَضَتِ الْبَطْشَةُ.

Narrator: `Abdullah (bin Mas`ud)

English translation
Narrated `Abdullah (bin Mas`ud): When the Prophet (ﷺ) realized that the Quraish had delayed in embracing Islam, he said, "O Allah! Protect me against their evil by afflicting them with seven (years of famine) like the seven years of (Prophet) Joseph." So they were struck with a year of famine that destroyed everything till they had to eat bones, and till a man would look towards the sky and see something like smoke between him and it. Allah said: -- "Then watch you (O Muhammad) for the day when the sky will produce a kind of smoke plainly visible." (44.10) And Allah further said: -- "Verily! We shall withdraw the punishment a little, Verily you will return (to disbelief)." (44.15) (Will Allah relieve them from torture on the Day of Resurrection?) (The punishment of) the smoke had passed and Al-Batsha (the destruction of the pagans in the Badr battle) had passed too

‘আবদুল্লাহ্ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। যখন কুরাইশগণ রাসূলুল্লাহ্ সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর ইসলামের দা’ওয়াত অস্বীকার করল, তখন তিনি আল্লাহর নিকটে আরয করলেন, হে আল্লাহ্! যেমনিভাবে আপনি ইউসুফ (আঃ)-এর সময় সাত বছর ধরে দুর্ভিক্ষ দিয়েছিলেন, তেমনিভাবে ওদের ওপর দুর্ভিক্ষ অবতীর্ণ করুন। তারপর কুরাইশগণ এক বছর পর্যন্ত এমন দুর্ভিক্ষের মধ্যে আপতিত হল যে, সব কিছু ধ্বংস হয়ে গেল; এমনকি তারা হাড় পর্যন্ত খেতে শুরু করল; যখন কোন ব্যক্তি আকাশের দিকে নজর করত, তখন আকাশ ও তার মধ্যে শুধু ধোঁয়া দেখত। আল্লাহ্ বলেন, فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَآءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُّبِيْنٍ ‘সেদিনের অপেক্ষায় থাক, যেদিন আকাশ স্পষ্ট ধোঁয়া নিয়ে আসবে।’ (সূরাহ দুখান ৪৪/১০) আল্লাহ্ আরও বলেনঃ إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيْلًا إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُوْنَ ‘‘আমি শাস্তি কিছুটা সরিয়ে নিব, যেন তোমরা (পূর্বাবস্থায়) ফিরে আস’’- (সূরাহ দুখান ৪৪/১৫)। কিয়ামতের দিন তাদের থেকে আযাব দূর করা হবে কি? এবং دُخَانُ ও بَطْشَةُ এর ব্যাখ্যা আগে বলা হয়েছে। [১০০৭] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৪৩৩২, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
