Sahih Bukhari 4823

حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ ، قَالَ : دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا دَعَا قُرَيْشًا كَذَّبُوهُ ، وَاسْتَعْصَوْا عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَيْهِمْ بِسَبْعٍ كَسَبْعِ يُوسُفَ ، فَأَصَابَتْهُمْ سَنَةٌ حَصَّتْ يَعْنِي كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ الْمَيْتَةَ ، فَكَانَ يَقُومُ أَحَدُهُمْ ، فَكَانَ يَرَى بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ مِثْلَ الدُّخَانِ مِنَ الْجَهْدِ وَالْجُوعِ ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ : فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ يَغْشَى النَّاسَ هَذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ حَتَّى بَلَغَ إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلا إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ سورة الدخان آية 10 - 15 ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : أَفَيُكْشَفُ عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، قَالَ : وَالْبَطْشَةُ الْكُبْرَى يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ .

Narrated Masruq: I came upon `Abdullah and he said, When Allah's Messenger invited Quraish (to Islam), they disbelieved him and stood against him. So he (the Prophet) said, O Allah! Help me against them by afflicting them with seven years of famine similar to the seven years of Joseph.' So they were stricken with a year of drought that destroyed everything, and they started eating dead animals, and if one of them got up he would see something like smoke between him and the sky from the severe fatigue and hunger. `Abdullah then recited:-- 'Then watch you for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible, covering the people. This is a painful torment... (till he reached) ........ We shall indeed remove the punishment for a while, but truly you will revert (to heathenism): (44.10-15) `Abdullah added: Will the punishment be removed from them on the Day of Resurrection? He added, The severe grasp was the Day of the Battle of Badr.
