Sayings of the Messenger احادیثِ رسول اللہ ﷺ

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، فَإِذَا قَالُوهَا عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهَا وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ.

Narrated from Abu Hurairah (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ said: "I have been commanded to fight the people until they say ‘There is no God but Allah’, and if they say that, then they have protected their blood and wealth from me, except what it makes obligatory upon them, and their reckoning is with Allah."

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَاسْتُخْلِفَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ بَعْدَهُ كَفَرَ مَنْ كَفَرَ مِنَ العَرَبِ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الخَطَّابِ، لأَبِي بَكْرٍ: كَيْفَ تُقَاتِلُ النَّاسَ، وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، وَمَنْ قَالَ: لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ عَصَمَ مِنِّي مَالَهُ وَنَفْسَهُ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهِ وَحِسَابُهُ عَلَى اللهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: وَاللَّهِ لَأُقَاتِلَنَّ مَنْ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الزَّكَاةِ وَالصَّلاَةِ، وَإِنَّ الزَّكَاةَ حَقُّ الْمَالِ، وَاللَّهِ لَوْ مَنَعُونِي عِقَالاً كَانُوا يُؤَدُّونَهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَقَاتَلْتُهُمْ عَلَى مَنْعِهِ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الخَطَّابِ: فَوَاللَّهِ مَا هُوَ إِلاَّ أَنْ رَأَيْتُ أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ شَرَحَ صَدْرَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ لِلْقِتَالِ فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ الحَقُّ.

Abu Hurairah (RA) said: "When Allah’s Apostle ﷺ died and Abu Bakr (RA) became the Khalifah after him, then those who had to disbelieve from the Arabs disbelieved, so Umar bin Al-Khattab (RA) said to Abu Bakr (RA) : 'How will you fight the people while Allah’s Apostle ﷺhas said: 'I have been commanded to fight the people until they say La Ilaha Illallah (There is no God but Allah), and if they say that, then they have protected their blood and wealth from me, except what it makes obligatory upon them, and their reckoning is with Allah.?' So Abu Bakr (RA) said: 'By Allah I will fight whoever differentiates between Salah and Zakah. For indeed, Zakah is the right due upon wealth. And by Allah! If they withhold even a (camel’s) rope that they used to give to Allah’s Apostle ﷺ, I will fight them over that.” Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA) said, “It was not, but that I observed that Allah had opened the heart of Abu Bakr ‘(RA) to fight and I knew that he was right.".'"

حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الطَّالِقَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ الطَّوِيلُ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، وَأَنْ يَسْتَقْبِلُوا قِبْلَتَنَا وَيَأْكُلُوا ذَبِيحَتَنَا، وَأَنْ يُصَلُّوا صَلاَتَنَا، فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْنَا دِمَاؤُهُمْ وَأَمْوَالُهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهَا، لَهُمْ مَا لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَعَلَيْهِمْ مَا عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ.

Narrated from Anas bin Malik (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ said: "I have been commanded to fight the people until they testify that La Ilaha Illallah (there is no God except Allah), and that Muhammad ﷺ is His servant and Messenger, they turn to our Qiblah, eat our slaughtered (meat), and offer our Salah. And if they do that, then their blood and wealth will be unlawful to us, except with its due right. For them shall be whatever is for the Muslims, and on them are (all the obligations) that are on the Muslim."

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ سُعَيْرِ بْنِ الخِمْسِ التَّمِيمِيِّ، عَنْ حَبيِبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: بُنِيَ الإِسْلاَمُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ، شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ، وَإِقَامِ الصَّلاَةِ، وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ، وَصَوْمِ رَمَضَانَ، وَحَجِّ البَيْتِ.

Narrated from Ibn Umar (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ said: "The foundation of Islam is (based) upon five: the testimony of La Ilaha Illallah (that there is no God but Allah), and that Muhammad ﷺ is the Messenger of Allah, the establishment of the Salah, the payment of Zakah, the fasting of (the month of) Ramadan, and performing Hajj to the House."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَمَّارٍ الحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ الخُزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ كَهْمَسِ بْنِ الحَسَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَعْمَُرَ، قَالَ: أَوَّلُ مَنْ تَكَلَّمَ فِي القَدَرِ مَعْبَدٌ الجُهَنِيُّ، قَالَ: فَخَرَجْتُ أَنَا وَحُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الحِمْيَرِيُّ حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ، فَقُلْنَا: لَوْ لَقِينَا رَجُلاً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَمَّا أَحْدَثَ هَؤُلاَءِ القَوْمُ، قَالَ: فَلَقِينَاهُ يَعْنِي عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، وَهُوَ خَارِجٌ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ قَالَ: فَاكْتَنَفْتُهُ أَنَا وَصَاحِبِي قَالَ: فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ صَاحِبِي سَيَكِلُ الكَلاَمَ إِلَيَّ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنَّ قَوْمًا يَقْرَءُونَ القُرْآنَ وَيَتَقَفَّرُونَ العِلْمَ، وَيَزْعُمُونَ أَنْ لاَ قَدَرَ وَأَنَّ الأَمْرَ أُنُفٌ، قَالَ: فَإِذَا لَقِيتَ أُولَئِكَ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنِّي مِنْهُمْ بَرِيءٌ وَأَنَّهُمْ مِنِّي بُرَآءُ، وَالَّذِي يَحْلِفُ بِهِ عَبْدُ اللهِ لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ أَنْفَقَ مِثْلَ أُحُدٍ ذَهَبًا مَا قُبِلَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ حَتَّى يُؤْمِنَ بِالقَدَرِ خَيْرِهِ وَشَرِّهِ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ يُحَدِّثُ فَقَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الخَطَّابِ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ شَدِيدُ بَيَاضِ الثِّيَابِ شَدِيدُ سَوَادِ الشَّعَرِ، لاَ يُرَى عَلَيْهِ أَثَرُ السَّفَرِ وَلاَ يَعْرِفُهُ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ حَتَّى أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَلْزَقَ رُكْبَتَهُ بِرُكْبَتِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَا الإِيمَانُ؟ قَالَ: أَنْ تُؤْمِنَ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلاَئِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ وَاليَوْمِ الآخِرِ، وَالقَدَرِ خَيْرِهِ وَشَرِّهِ،

Yahya bin Ya'mur said: "The first person who speak about Al-Qadar (Divine decree) was Ma'bad Al-Juhani." He said: "Humaid bin Abdur-Rahman Al-Himyari and I went out until we reached Al-Madinah, and we said to ourselves: 'If we could meet someone among the companions of the Prophet ﷺ so we might ask him about the innovation of these people." [He said:] "So (fortunately) we met him - meaning Abdullah bin 'Umar (RA) - while he was leaving the Masjid." [He said:] I and my friend stood by him. I presumed that my friend left me to speak, so I said, “O Abu Abdur Rahman. Certain people recite the Qur’an and acquire knowledge, but are convinced that there is no predestination and they hold that fate is not decreed aforehand. ‘Ibn Umar (RA) said, “When you meet them, let them know that I am absolved of them, and they are absolved of me. By Him on whom Abdullah swears often if they give away gold as much as Uhud, it would not be accepted from them till they believe in destiny, good and bad.”.'" He said: "Then he began to narrate, he said: "'Umar bin Al-Khattab) RA) said: "We were with the Apostle of Allah ﷺ when a man came with extremely white garments, and extremely black hair. He had no appearance of traveling visible on him, yet none of us recognized him. He came until he reached the Prophet ﷺ. He placed his knees up against his knees, and then said: "O Muhammad! What is Iman?' He said 'To believe in Allah, His Angels, His, Books, His Messengers, the Day of Judgment, and Al-Qadar, the good of it and the bad of it.' He said: 'Then what is Islam?' He said: 'Testifying to La Ilaha Illallah, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, establishing the Salat, giving the Zakat, performing Hajj to the House, and fasting (the month of) Ramadan.' He said: 'Then what is Ihsan?' He said 'That (is) you worship Allah as if you see Him, and although you do not see Him, He certainly sees you.' He said: 'For all of those he replied to him: 'You have told the truth.'" He said: "So we were amazed at him, he would ask, and then tell him that he is telling the truth. He said: 'Then when is the Hour?' He ﷺ said: 'The one being asked knows no more than the questioner.' He said: 'Then what are its signs?' He said: 'That the slave woman gives birth to her master, and that the naked, poor, and bare-footed shepherds rival each other in the height of the buildings.'" 'Umar said: 'then the Prophet ﷺ met me three days after that and said: 'O 'Umar! Do you know who the questioner was? It was Jibril. He came to teach you about the matters of your religion.'"

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ الْمُهَلَّبِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي جَمْرَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَدِمَ وَفْدُ عَبْدِ القَيْسِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالُوا: إِنَّا هَذَا الحَيَّ مِنْ رَبِيعَةَ وَلَسْنَا نَصِلُ إِلَيْكَ إِلاَّ فِي أَشْهُرِ الحَرَامِ، فَمُرْنَا بِشَيْءٍ نَأْخُذُهُ عَنْكَ وَنَدْعُو إِلَيْهِ مَنْ وَرَاءَنَا، فَقَالَ: آمُرُكُمْ بِأَرْبَعٍ، الْإِيمَانِ بِاللَّهِ، ثُمَّ فَسَّرَهَا لَهُمْ، شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ، وَإِقَامِ الصَّلاَةِ، وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ، وَأَنْ تُؤَدُّوا خُمْسَ مَا غَنِمْتُمْ.

Ibn Abbas (RA) said: "A delegation of (the tribe) Abdul-Qais came to Allah’s Apostle ﷺ and said: 'Indeed this tribe (of us) is from Rabi'ah, and we cannot come to you except during the sacred months. So command us therefore with something that we can take from you, and then we can invite those who are behind us.' So he said: 'I command you with four things: To testify that that there is no God but Allah (La Ilaha Illallah) and I am Allah’s Apostle; to establish the Salah, to give the Zakah, and to pay one-fifth of what as booty you gain.'"

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ البَغْدَادِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ الحَذَّاءُ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِنَّ مِنْ أَكْمَلِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِيمَانًا أَحْسَنُهُمْ خُلُقًا وَأَلْطَفُهُمْ بِأَهْلِهِ.

Narrated from Aishah (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ said: "Indeed the most complete among the believers in terms of faith is the one who is the best in conduct, and the most kind to his family."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ هُرَيْمُ بْنُ مِسْعَرٍ الأَزْدِيُّ التِّرْمِذِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ العَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَطَبَ النَّاسَ فَوَعَظَهُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ تَصَدَّقْنَ فَإِنَّكُنَّ أَكْثَرُ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فَقَالَتْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ: وَلِمَ ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: لِكَثْرَةِ لَعْنِكُنَّ، يَعْنِي وَكُفْرِكُنَّ العَشِيرَ. قَالَ: وَمَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَاقِصَاتِ عَقْلٍ وَدِينٍ أَغْلَبَ لِذَوِي الأَلْبَابِ، وَذَوِي الرَّأْيِ مِنْكُنَّ، قَالَتْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ: وَمَا نُقْصَانُ دِينِهَا وَعَقْلِهَا، قَالَ: شَهَادَةُ امْرَأَتَيْنِ مِنْكُنَّ بِشَهَادَةِ رَجُلٍ، وَنُقْصَانُ دِينِكُنَّ، الحَيْضَةُ، تَمْكُثُ إِحْدَاكُنَّ الثَّلاَثَ وَالأَرْبَعَ لاَ تُصَلِّي.

Narrated from Abu Hurairah (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ gave a sermon to the people in which he exhorted them, and then he said: "O women! Give charity for you are the majority of the people of the Fire." A woman among them asked: "And why is that O Apostle of Allah ﷺ?" He said: "Because of your cursing so much." - meaning your ungratefulness towards your husbands. He said: "And I have not seen any among those lacking in intellect and religion who are more difficult upon people possessing reason and insight than you." A woman among them said: "And what is the deficiency of her intellect and religion?" He said: "The testimony of two women among you is equal to the testimony of one man, and the deficiency in your religion is menstruation, because one of you will go three or four days without offering Salah."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: الإِيمَانُ بِضْعٌ وَسَبْعُونَ بَابًا، فَ أَدْنَاهَا إِمَاطَةُ الأَذَى عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ، وَأَرْفَعُهَا قَوْلُ: لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ.

Narrated from Abu Hurairah (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ said: "Faith has a little over seventy gates. The humblest of them is to remove something hurtful from the path and the highest of them is the saying 'There is no God but Allah.’”

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، الْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ، قَالاَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِرَجُلٍ وَهُوَ يَعِظُ أَخَاهُ فِي الحَيَاءِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: الحَيَاءُ مِنَ الإِيمَانِ قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، فِي حَدِيثِهِ: إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَمِعَ رَجُلاً يَعِظُ أَخَاهُ فِي الحَيَاءِ.

Narrated from Ibn Umar (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ passed by a man and he was chastising his brother about modesty, so Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said: "Al-Haya' (modesty) is part of faith."

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الصَّنْعَانِيُّ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ أَبِي النَّجُودِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ، فَأَصْبَحْتُ يَوْمًا قَرِيبًا مِنْهُ وَنَحْنُ نَسِيرُ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ يُدْخِلُنِي الجَنَّةَ وَيُبَاعِدُنِي عَنِ النَّارِ، قَالَ: لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَنِي عَنْ عَظِيمٍ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَسِيرٌ عَلَى مَنْ يَسَّرَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ، تَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ وَلاَ تُشْرِكْ بِهِ شَيْئًا، وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلاَةَ، وَتُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ، وَتَصُومُ رَمَضَانَ، وَتَحُجُّ البَيْتَ, ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَلاَ أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ الخَيْرِ: الصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ تُطْفِئُ الخَطِيئَةَ كَمَا يُطْفِئُ الْمَاءُ النَّارَ، وَصَلاَةُ الرَّجُلِ مِنْ جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ قَالَ: ثُمَّ تَلاَ {تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ}، حَتَّى بَلَغَ {يَعْمَلُونَ} , ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَلاَ أُخْبِرُكَ بِرَأْسِ الأَمْرِ كُلِّهِ وَعَمُودِهِ، وَذِرْوَةِ سَنَامِهِ؟ قُلْتُ: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: رَأْسُ الأَمْرِ الإِسْلاَمُ، وَعَمُودُهُ الصَّلاَةُ، وَذِرْوَةُ سَنَامِهِ الجِهَادُ, ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَلاَ أُخْبِرُكَ بِمَلاَكِ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ؟ قُلْتُ: بَلَى يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، فَأَخَذَ بِلِسَانِهِ قَالَ: كُفَّ عَلَيْكَ هَذَا، فَقُلْتُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، وَإِنَّا لَمُؤَاخَذُونَ بِمَا نَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ؟ فَقَالَ: ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ يَا مُعَاذُ، وَهَلْ يَكُبُّ النَّاسَ فِي النَّارِ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ أَوْ عَلَى مَنَاخِرِهِمْ إِلاَّ حَصَائِدُ أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ.

Mu'adh bin Jabal (RA) said: "I accompanied the Prophet ﷺ on a journey. So, one day I came very close to him while we were traveling so I said: 'O Apostle of Allah! ﷺ tell me about a deed which may enable me to enter the Paradise, and which will keep me far from the Fire.' He said: 'You have asked me about a great thing, but it is easy for whomever Allah makes it easy: Worship Allah and do not associate any partners with Him, establish the Salah, pay the Zakat, fast Ramadan and perform Hajj to the House (Ka’bah).' Then he said: 'Shall I not guide you to the doors of good? Fasting is a shield, and charity extinguishes sins like water extinguishes fire - and a man's Salah in depths of the night.'" He said: "Then he recited: ‘Their sides forsake their beds as they call on their Lord in fear and in hope, and they expend out of what We have provided them. No soul knows what delight of the eyes is kept hidden for them, as a recompense for what they used to do.’ (Al-Quran 32:16-17) Then he said: 'Shall I not inform you about the head of the entire matter, and its pillar, and its hump?' I said: 'Certainly, O Apostle of Allah! ﷺ He said: 'The head of the matter is Islam, and its pillar is the Salah, and its hump is Jihad.' Then he said: 'Shall I not inform you about what governs all of that?' I said: 'Certainly, O Apostle of Allah! ﷺ'" He ﷺ said: "So he got hold of his tongue. He said ‘keep it in check.' I said: 'O Prophet of Allah! ﷺ Will we be held accountable for what we say?' He said: 'May your mother weep at you O Mu'adh! Will people be thrown into the Fire upon their faces, or on their nostrils except as the consequence of their tongues?”

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الحَارِثِ، عَنْ دَرَّاجٍ أَبِي السَّمْحِ، عَنْ أَبِي الهَيْثَمِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الرَّجُلَ يَتَعَاهَدُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَاشْهَدُوا لَهُ بِالإِيمَانِ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَقُولُ: {إِنَّمَا يَعْمُرُ مَسَاجِدَ اللهِ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَاليَوْمِ الآخِرِ وَأَقَامَ الصَّلاَةَ وَآتَى الزَّكَاةَ} الآيَةَ.

Narrated from Abu Saeed (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ said: "If you see a man who frequently visits the mosque, then give testimony to his faith for Allah, the Exalted, says: ‘The Mosques of Allah shall be maintained only by those who believe in Allah and the Last Day; perform As-Salah (Iqamat-as-Salat), and give Zakat and fear none but Allah until the end of the Ayah’” (9:18)

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الهَادِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الحَارِثِ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، عَنِ العَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ذَاقَ طَعْمَ الإِيمَانِ، مَنْ رَضِيَ بِاللَّهِ رَبًّا، وَبِالإِسْلاَمِ دِينًا، وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ نَبِيًّا.

Narrated from Al-Abbas bin Abdul-Muttalib (RA) that he heard Allah’s Apostle ﷺ say: "Whoever is pleased with Allah as (his) Lord, and Islam as (his) religion, and Muhammad ﷺ as (his) Prophet, then he has tasted the sweetness of faith."

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَهَّابِ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ثَلاَثٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ وَجَدَ بِهِنَّ طَعْمَ الإِيمَانِ، مَنْ كَانَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِمَّا سِوَاهُمَا، وَأَنْ يُحِبَّ الْمَرْءَ لاَ يُحِبُّهُ إِلاَّ لِلَّهِ، وَأَنْ يَكْرَهَ أَنْ يَعُودَ فِي الكُفْرِ بَعْدَ إِذْ أَنْقَذَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ كَمَا يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُقْذَفَ فِي النَّارِ.

Narrated from Anas bin Malik (RA) that Allah’s Apostle ﷺ said: "There are three things which anyone possesses, then he has tasted the sweetness of faith: He to whom Allah and His Messenger are more beloved than anything else; He who loves someone and he does not love him except for the sake of Allah, and the one who hates to return to disbelief after Allah has pulled him out if it, just as he hates to be thrown into fire."
