Hadith 9864

عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَهُ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِرَأْسِ الْأَمْرِ وَعَمُودِهِ وَذِرْوَةِ سَنَامِهِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ رَأْسُ الْأَمْرِ وَعَمُودُهُ الصَّلَاةُ وَذِرْوَةُ سَنَامِهِ الْجِهَادُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِمِلَاكِ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ فَقُلْتُ بَلَى يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ فَأَخَذَ بِلِسَانِهِ فَقَالَ كُفَّ عَلَيْكَ هَذَا فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَإِنَّا لَمُؤَاخَذُونَ بِمَا نَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ فَقَالَ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ يَا مُعَاذُ وَهَلْ يَكُبُّ النَّاسَ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ فِي النَّارِ أَوْ قَالَ عَلَى مَنَاخِرِهِمْ إِلَّا حَصَائِدُ أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu’adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Shall I not tell you what is the foundation of the religion, its pillar, and its highest peak? I said: O Messenger of Allah! Certainly. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The foundation of the religion and its pillar is prayer, and its highest peak is jihad. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Shall I not also tell you about that thing which controls all of these? I said: Yes, O Prophet of Allah! In response, he (peace and blessings be upon him) held his blessed tongue and said: Restrain this over yourself. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Will we also be held accountable for what we say? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Mu’adh! May your mother lose you, nothing throws people on their faces into the Fire except the harvest of their tongues.
