عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ الطَّائِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ”اتَّقُوا النَّارَ“ قَالَ شَاحَ بِوَجْهِهِ حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنَّهُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ ”اتَّقُوا النَّارَ“ وَأَشَاحَ بِوَجْهِهِ قَالَ قَالَ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا ”اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشَقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا فَبِكَلِمَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Adi bin Hatim Ta’i (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Save yourselves from Hell. At the same time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) expressed displeasure on his face; it seemed to us as if he was seeing it. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Create means to save yourselves from Hell. Again, he expressed displeasure on his face. This happened two or three times. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Save yourselves from Hell, even if it is with a piece of a date, and if someone does not have that, then with a good word.
