Inajulikana kwamba 'Uzair alikuwa mmoja wa Manabii waliotumwa kwa Wana wa Israeli; alikuja katika kipindi kilichokuwa kati ya Dawud na Sulaiman, na kati ya Zakariya na Yahya. Wakati wake, hakuna hata mmoja miongoni mwa Wana wa Israeli aliyekuwa amehifadhi Torati kwa moyo, basi Allah Mtukufu alimfunulia ahifadhi Torati moyoni mwake, kisha akawasomea Wana wa Israeli. Wahb Ibn Munabih alisema: Allah Mtukufu alimwamuru Malaika ashuke na nuru ili aitupe kwa 'Uzair. Kwa kufanya hivyo, aliinakili Torati herufi kwa herufi hadi alipomaliza.
It is well known that 'Uzair was one of the Prophets sent to the Children of Israel; he came during the interval between Dawud and Sulaiman, and Zakariya and Yahya. At his time, none from among the Children of Israel happened to memorize the Torah, Allah the Almighty inspired him to commit it to his heart and then he recited it to the Children of Israel. Wahb Ibn Munabih said: Allah the Almighty ordered an Angel to descend with light to throw on 'Uzair .In doing this, he copied the Torah letter by letter till he was finished.
Ibn 'Asakir alisimulia kutoka kwa 'Abdullah Ibn 'Abbas (Allah amridhie) kwamba aliuliza 'Abdullah Ibn Salam kuhusu Kauli ya Allah:
Ibn 'Asakir narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) that he asked' Abdullah Ibn Salam about Allah's Statement:
{Wayahudi wanasema: 'Uzairi (Ezra) ni mwana wa Mwenyezi Mungu}. (At-Taubah, 30) Kwa nini walisema hivyo? Ibn Salam alitaja kwamba 'Uzairi aliandika Torati kutoka kwenye kumbukumbu yake, na kauli ya Mayahudi kwamba Musa (Mose) hakuweza kuwapatia Torati isipokuwa katika kitabu, na kwamba 'Uzairi aliipata bila kitabu. Hapo baadhi yao walisema: 'Uzairi (Ezra) ni mwana wa Mwenyezi Mungu. Kwa sababu hiyo, wanazuoni wengi husema: kulikuwa na kukatika kwa usambazaji wa Torati wakati wa 'Uzairi. Hili lina uwezekano mkubwa iwapo 'Uzairi hakuwa Nabii, jambo linalokubaliwa na 'Ata Ibn Abu Rabah na Al-Hasan Al-Basri, na lilisimuliwa na Ishaq Ibn Bishr baada ya Muqatil Ibn Sulaiman, baada ya 'Ata Ibn Abu Rabah, akisema: kipindi hicho kilishuhudia mambo tisa: Bikhtinassar, bustani ya Sanaa, bustani ya Saba', Watu wa Shimo, Gasura, Watu wa Pango, Watu wa Tembo, Antiokia, na Tubba'.
{The Jews say: 'Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allah}. (At-Taubah, 30) why did they say so? Ibn Salam mentioned his ('Uzair's) writing down of the Torah out of his memory, and the saying of the Jews that Musa (Moses) could not get them the Torah but in a book, and that 'Uzair got it without a book. Thereupon, some of them said: 'Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allah. For this reason, many scholars say: there was a discontinuation pertaining to the transmission of the Torah at the time of 'Uzair. This is very likely if 'Uzair was not a Prophet which is adopted by 'Ata 'Ibn Abu Rabah and Al-Hasan Al-Basri, and that was narrated by Ishaq Ibn Bishr after Muqatil Ibn Sulaiman after 'Ata 'Ibn Abu Rabah as saying: that period witnessed nine things: Bikhtinassar, Sanaa garden, Saba' garden, Owners of the Ditch, Gasura, Owners of the Cave, Owners of the Elephant, Antioch, and Tubba'.
Ishaq Ibn Bishr alisema: Nilipokewa na Sa'id, baada ya Qatadah, baada ya Al-Hasan kusema: Kipindi hicho kilishuhudia masuala ya 'Uzair na Bikhtinassar. Zaidi ya hayo, imepokewa katika Sahih Muslim kwamba Mjumbe wa Allah ﷺ
Ishaq Ibn Bishr said: I was told by Sa'id after Qatadah after Al-Hasan as saying: That period witnessed the issues of 'Uzair and Bikhtinassar. Moreover, it is transmitted in the Sahih Muslim that Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him)
Alisema: "Mimi ndiye nilye karibu zaidi na mwana wa Maryam miongoni mwa watu wote, kwa kuwa Manabii wametofautiana mama zao, lakini dini yao ni moja, na hakuna Nabii aliyetumwa kati yangu na yeye (Yesu Kristo)." ﷺ
Wahb Ibn Munabih alisema: Alitumwa kati ya Sulaiman na 'Isa (Yesu).
said: "l am most akin to the son of Mary among the whole of mankind and the Prophets are of different mothers, but of one religion, and no Prophet was raised between me and him (Jesus Christ). " Wahb Ibn Munabih said: He was raised between Sulaiman and 'Isa (Jesus)
(Amani iwe juu yao.) Ibn 'Asakir alisimulia kutoka kwa Anas Ibn Malik na 'Ata' Ibn As-Sa'ib, akisema: 'Uzair alifufuliwa wakati wa Musa Ibn 'Imran, na kwamba aliomba ruhusa ya kukutana na Musa (amani iwe juu yake), lakini alikataa kwa sababu ya swali lake kuhusu Qadhi ya Mwenyezi Mungu. Akaondoka huku akisema: kufa mara mia ni rahisi kuliko kuonja udhalilifu kwa saa moja.
(Peace be upon them). Ibn 'Asakir narrated after Anas Ibn Malik and' Ata 'Ibn As-Sa'ib as saying: 'Uzair was raised during the time of Musa Ibn 'Imran, and that he asked for permission to meet with Musa (Peace be upon him), but he refused because of his asking about the Divine Decree. He left while saying: to die a hundred times, is easier than tasting the humiliation for an hour.
Kuhusu kile kilichosimuliwa na Ibn 'Asakir na wengine kwa mapokezi ya Ibn 'Abbas, Nuf AlBakali, Sufyan Ath-Thawri na wengine, kwamba alimuuliza kuhusu Qadar ya Mwenyezi Mungu (SWT) na kwa sababu hiyo jina lake likafutwa miongoni mwa majina ya Manabii, hadithi hiyo imekataliwa na si sahihi, na huenda imenakiliwa kutoka kwenye hadithi na masimulizi yaliyobuniwa na Wayahudi.
As for what was narrated by Ibn 'Asakir and others on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, Nuf AIBakali, Sufyan Ath-Thawri and others that he asked about the Divine Decree and consequently his name was erased from among the names of the Prophets. It is a rejected and unauthentic Hadith that it is likely to be copied from the tales and stories that were invented by the Israelites.
Imesimuliwa kutoka kwa 'Abdul Razzaq na Qutaibah Ibn Sa'id, kutoka kwa Ja'far Ibn Sulaiman, kutoka kwa Abu 'Imran Al-Juni, kutoka kwa Nuf Al-Bakali, akisema: 'Uzair alimwambia Mola wake: 0
Narrated 'Abdul Razzaq and Qutaibah Ibn Sa' id after Ja'far Ibn Sulaiman after Abu 'Imran Al-Juni after Nuf Al-Bakali as saying: 'Uzair said to his Lord: 0
Ee Mola! Wewe ndiwe uliyeumba viumbe, nawe unawapoteza unaowataka na kuwaongoza unaowataka. Ilisemwa kwake: Jiepushe na hili! Lakini, alirudi nyuma. Ikasemwa tena kwake: Jiepushe na hili, la sivyo jina lako kama Nabii litafutwa; sitaulizwa kuhusu Utendaji Wangu, ilhali wao (viumbe vyote) wanahesabiwa kwa yale wanayoyatenda.
Lord! You fashioned the creation, and You mislead whom You will and guide whom You will. It was thus said to him: Turn away from this! But, he returned back. It was again said to him: Turn away from this or your name as a Prophet would be wiped out; I am not to be questioned about My Doing, while they (all creatures) are brought into account pertaining to what they do.
Kundi zote, isipokuwa At-Tirmidhi, wamesimulia kutoka kwenye Hadith ya Yunus bin Yazid, kutoka kwa Az-Zuhri, kutoka kwa Sa'id na Abu Salamah, kutoka kwa Abu Hurairah. Pia imesimuliwa na Shu'aib, kutoka kwa Abu Az-Zinad, kutoka kwa Al-A'raj, kutoka kwa Abu Hurairah, kwamba alisema: Mjumbe wa Allah ﷺ alisema: "Chungu mmoja alimuuma Nabii mmoja (miongoni mwa Manabii wa zamani), naye akaamuru kichuguu cha vyungu kichomwe moto. Ndipo Allah akamfunulia: Kwa sababu ya kuumwa na chungu mmoja, umechoma jamii moja miongoni mwa jamii zinazomtakasa Mimi."
The Group, all but At-Tirmidhi, narrated from the Hadith of Yunus Ibn Yazid after Az-Zuhri after Sa'id and Abu Salamah after Abu Hurairah; also it was narrated by Shu' aib after Abu Az- Zinad after Al-A'raj after Abu Hurairah as saying: Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) said: "An ant had bitten a Prophet (one amongst the earlier Prophets) and he ordered that the colony of the ants should be burnt. And Allah revealed to him: Because of an ant's bite you have burnt a community from amongst the communities which sings My glory ".
Mtume huyu alisimuliwa kuwa ni 'Uzair na Ishaq Ibn Bishr, kutoka kwa Ibn Juraij, kutoka kwa Muhammad Ibn 'Abdel Wahhab Ibn Mujahid, kutoka kwa baba yake; pia hili lilisimuliwa kwa mamlaka ya 'Abdullah Ibn 'Abbas (Allah amridhie) na Al-Hasan Al-Basri. Allah ndiye Mjuzi zaidi!
This Prophet was narrated to be 'Uzair by Ishaq Ibn Bishr after Ibn Juraij afterMuhammad Ibn 'Abdel Wahhab Ibn Mujahid after his father; also this was narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) and Al-Hasan AIBasri. Allah knows best!
