4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Harun ibn Muslim from Mas’adah ibn Sadaqah who has narrated the following: “This is about the meaning of the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious. ‘I do not swear by the places of the stars.’ (56:75) Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘People of the community of ignorance swore by the places of stars and Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, said, “I do not swear by the places of stars.’” He (the Imam) said that He called their swearing as such a grave thing. He (the Imam) has said that people of the time of ignorance held the month of Muharram to be a great thing. They would not swear thereby as well as the month of Rajab and did not disturb in these months those going and coming around even if he may have killed one’s father. They would not expel from al- Haram (the Sacred area) an animal or sheep or camel and so on. Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, said to His Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, ‘I do not swear by this town and you are living in this town.’ (90:2-3) He (the Imam) said that their ignorance had climaxed to the level of making them to consider the killing of the Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, as lawful. On the contrary they held days of the month with greatness whereby they swore and stood by such oaths.’”
IsnādAli ibn Ibrahim a rapporté de Haroun ibn Muslim, de Mas'ada ibn Sadaka, qui a dit : Abu Abdullah (que la paix soit sur lui) a dit...
...dans le verset d'Allah Tout-Puissant : "Je ne jure pas par les positions des étoiles". Les gens de l'ignorance juraient par elles, alors Allah Tout-Puissant a dit : "Je ne jure pas par les positions des étoiles". Il a été grandement blâmable pour celui qui jurait par elles. Les gens de l'ignorance respectaient les interdictions sacrées sans jurer par elles, ni par le mois de Rajab, et ne s'opposaient pas à ceux qui voyageaient ou arrivaient pendant ces mois, même s'ils avaient tué leur père, ni pour rien qui sorte du Haram, que ce soit une bête, un mouton, un chameau ou autre. Allah Tout-Puissant a dit à Son Prophète (que la paix soit sur lui et sa famille) : "Je ne jure pas par cette cité alors que tu es résident en elle". Il a été rapporté de leur ignorance qu'ils avaient permis le meurtre du Prophète (que la paix soit sur lui et sa famille) et avaient sanctifié les jours du mois où ils juraient, puis ils les violaient.
