اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَرِيرًا، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ”مَنْ لاَ يَرْحَمِ النَّاسَ لاَ يَرْحَمْهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever does not show mercy to people, Allah the Exalted does not show mercy to him."
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Maulana Usman Muneeb
Benefits and Issues:
➊ The point is that a person who does not deal with people with gentleness, compassion, and affection is not worthy that Allah, exalted is He, should have mercy on him in this world or the Hereafter. For whoever does not care for the helpless and destitute should not expect that when he himself is helpless and destitute, Allah, exalted is He, will have mercy on him.
➋ Its connection to the chapter heading is that calling out with "O my son" (yā bunayya) is among the acts of kindness and compassion.
