Hadith 5344

(1) His statement: “Three presentations”: Meaning three times. In the first, they defend themselves, saying: “The prophets did not convey to us,” and argue with Allah, the Exalted. In the second, they confess and make excuses, saying: “Everything I did was by mistake, error, ignorance, or hope,” and so on. This is the meaning of his statement: “The first two are arguments and excuses.” (As stated in Al-Mirqat)

(2) His statement: “Some taking with their right and some with their left”: The “fa” is explanatory, meaning some take with their right, who are the people of felicity, and some with their left, who are the people of misery. At that time, their fates are settled according to their beginnings, and the people of misguidance are distinguished from the people of guidance. (As stated in Al-Mirqat)

(۱) قوله : ثلاث عرضات بفتحتين، قيل : أي ثلاث مرات، فأما المرة الأولى فيدفعون عن أنفسهم، ويقولون: لم يبلغنا الأنبياء، ويحاجون الله تعالى، وفي الثانية يعترفون ويعتذرون بأن يقول: كل فعلته سهوا وخطأ وجهلا ورجاء ونحو ذلك. وهذا معنى قوله : «فأما عرضتان فجدال ومعاذير». كذا في «المرقاة».

(۲) قوله: فأخذ بيمينه وآخذ بشماله الفاء تفصيلية، أي فمنهم آخذ بيمينه، وهو من أهل السعادة، ومنهم آخذ بشماله، وهو من أهل الشقاوة، فحينئذ تتم قضيتهم على وفق البداية، ويتميز أهل الضلالة من أهل الهداية. كذا في «المرقاة».
