Tirmidhi Book 47, Hadith 3031
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ لا يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ سورة النساء آية 95، جَاءَ عَمْرُو ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: وَكَانَ ضَرِيرَ الْبَصَرِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، مَا تَأْمُرُنِي إِنِّي ضَرِيرُ الْبَصَرِ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: غَيْرُ أُولِي الضَّرَرِ سورة النساء آية 95، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِيتُونِي بِالْكَتِفِ وَالدَّوَاةِ أَوِ اللَّوْحِ وَالدَّوَاةِ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، وَيُقَالُ عَمْرُو ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، وَيُقَالُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، وَهُوَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ زَائِدَةَ، وَأُمُّ مَكْتُومٍ أُمُّهُ.
Narrated Al-Bara bin 'Azib: When the following was revealed: 'Not equal are those of the believers who sit (4:95)' 'Amr bin Umm Maktum came to the Prophet (ﷺ). He said: He was blind, so he said: 'O Messenger of Allah! What do you order me with? Indeed my vision is disabled.' So Allah [Most High] revealed this Ayah: 'Except those who are disabled.' So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'Bring me a shoulder bone and inkwell' - or 'Bring me a tablet and an inkwell.'
