1 The Virtues of Surah Al-Ma'idah; When It was Revealed Surah to ...

مَا مِنْ‏ قَوْمٍ‏ یَكُونُ‏ بَيْنَ‏ أَظْهُرِهِمْ‏ مَنْ‏ یَعْمَلُ‏ بِالْمَعَاصِي هُمْ‏ أَعَ‏ ُّز
مِنْهُ‏ وَأَمْنَعُ،‏ وَلَمْ‏ یُغَي ِّرُوا إِل َّا أَصَابَهُمُ‏ االلهُ‏ مِنْهُ‏ بِعَذَاب
There is no people among whom there are those
who commit sins, while the rest are more
powerful and mightier than the sinners, yet they
do not stop them, but Allah will send a
punishment upon them.
Ahmad was alone with this wording.
Abu Dawud recorded it, but in his narration Jarir said,
"I heard the Messenger of Allah saying,
مَا مِنْ‏ رَجُلٍ‏ یَكُونُ‏ فِي قَوْمٍ‏ یُعْمَلُ‏ فِيهِمْ‏ بِالْمَعَاصِي،‏ یَقْدِرُونَ‏ أَنْ‏
یُغَي ِّرُوا عَلَيْهِ،‏ فَلَا یُغَي ِّرُوا إِل َّا أَصَابَهُمُ‏ االلهُ‏ بِعِقَابٍ‏ قَبْلَ‏ أَنْ‏ یَمُوتُوا
There is no one who resides among people
committing evil among them, and they do not
stop him though they are able to do so, but Allah
will punish them (all) before they die.''
Ibn Majah also recorded this Hadith.
وَقَالَتِ‏ الْيَهُودُ‏ یَدُ‏ الل َّهِ‏ مَغْلُولَةٌ‏
5:64 The Jews say: "Allah's Hand is tied up.''
غُل َّتْ‏ أَیْدِیهِمْ‏ وَلُعِنُواْ‏ بِمَا قَالُواْ‏
Be their hands tied up and be they accursed for
what they uttered.
بَلْ‏ یَدَاهُ‏ مَبْسُوطَتَانِ‏ یُنفِقُ‏ آَيْفَ‏ یَشَآءُ‏
Nay, both His Hands are widely outstretched. He
spends as He wills.
