63 – Al-Ḥusayn ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān narrated to me, from an elder of Quraysh, who said:
Allah revealed to His Prophet Muhammad ﷺ: “Would you like Me to place the affair of your community in your hands?” He replied, “No, my Lord; You are better for them.” So Allah—exalted is He—revealed to him: “Then I shall never disgrace you concerning them.”
٦٣ - حَدَّثَنِي الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ قَالَ: " أَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَى نَبِيِّهِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﵇ أَتُحِبُّ أَنْ أَجْعَلَ أَمْرَ أُمَّتِكَ إِلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ: لَا يَا رَبِّ أَنْتَ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ ﷿ إِلَيْهِ: إِذَنْ لَا أُخْزِيكَ فِيهِمْ "
