عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: ««رأى عيسى ابنُ مريم رجلًا يَسْرِق، فقال له: أسَرَقتَ؟ قال: كلا والله الذي لا إله إلا هو، فقال عيسى: آمنتُ بالله، وكذَّبتُ عيني».
‘Īsa the Son Maryam (peace be upon him) saw a man stealing. He asked the man if he had stolen. The man swore by Allah that he had not. So ‘Īsa said that he believed in Allah and disbelieved in his own eyes. This means that he believed the man, for he swore by Allah, and ruled out that he ostensibly stole. The man could have taken something that belonged to him, or with its owner's permission, or not meaning to seize it unlawfully, or merely to look into it, etc.
This illustrates how much the prophets glorify Allah, the Most High.
