بَابُ الضَّحِكِChapter: Laughing
Hadith 254
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَهْطٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ يَضْحَكُونَ وَيَتَحَدَّثُونَ، فَقَالَ: ”وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا أَعْلَمُ لَضَحِكْتُمْ قَلِيلاً، وَلَبَكَيْتُمْ كَثِيرًا“، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَأَبْكَى الْقَوْمَ، وَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَيْهِ: ”يَا مُحَمَّدُ، لِمَ تُقَنِّطُ عِبَادِي؟“، فَرَجَعَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: ”أَبْشِرُوا، وَسَدِّدُوا، وَقَارِبُوا.“
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to a group of his companions who were laughing and talking. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Him in Whose hand is my soul, if you knew what I know, you would laugh little and weep much." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went back and made the people weep, and Allah the Exalted revealed to him: "O Muhammad! Why do you make My servants despair?" So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned and said: "Rejoice, remain steadfast, and strive to do your deeds correctly."
