Sunan an-Nasai 3100 (Book 25, Hadith 16) #17712
Exemption of Disabled People from Jihad

SUMMARY: This hadith explains how Allah revealed a verse in the Quran to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) that exempted disabled people from participating in Jihad.

It was narrated that Ibn Shihab said: "Sahl bin Sa'd said: 'I saw Marwan sitting in the Masjid so I went and sat beside him, and he told us that Zaid bin Thabit had told him, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dictated to him the words: Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home) and those who strive hard and fight in the cause of Allah. Then Ibn umm Maktum came to him while he was dictating it to me (Zaid) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah! If I were able to go for Jihad I would go out for Jihad'. But he was a blind man. Then Allah revealed to His Messenger ﷺ - while his thigh was against my thigh, and (it became so heavy that) I thought my thigh would break, then it was lifted from him, and Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed: 'Except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame)'." 1 1 An-Nisa' 4:95.
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ مَرْوَانَ جَالِسًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَأَقْبَلْتُ حَتَّى جَلَسْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ فَأَخْبَرَنَا أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمْلَى عَلَيْهِ لاَ يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُجَاهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَجَاءَهُ ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ وَهُوَ يُمِلُّهَا عَلَىَّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَسْتَطِيعُ الْجِهَادَ لَجَاهَدْتُ ‏.‏ وَكَانَ رَجُلاً أَعْمَى فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ وَفَخِذُهُ عَلَى فَخِذِي حَتَّى هَمَّتْ تَرُضُّ فَخِذِي ثُمَّ سُرِّيَ عَنْهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ‏{‏ غَيْرُ أُولِي الضَّرَرِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the revelation of a verse in the Quran which exempts disabled people from participating in jihad. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was dictating this verse to Zaid bin Thabit when Ibn Umm Maktum came and asked if he could go for jihad even though he was blind. At that moment, Allah revealed another part of the same verse which exempted disabled people from participating in jihad. This hadith teaches us that everyone should be treated equally regardless of their physical abilities or disabilities and no one should be excluded because they are not able to do something due to their disability. It also teaches us that we should always strive for justice and fairness towards all individuals regardless of their physical abilities or disabilities.
