اُردوEn
وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَالِثٍ أَنَّ كَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حَيْنَ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فِي الشِّعْرِ مَا أَنْزَلَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى قَدْ أَنْزَلَ فِي الشِّعْرِ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ وَكَيْفَ تَرَى فِيهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ يُجَاهِدُ بِسَيْفِهِ وَلِسَانِهِ
(Third chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Allah Almighty revealed (the verses of condemnation) regarding poetry, he came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: You know what Allah Almighty has revealed about poetry, so what is your opinion about them now? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, the believer strives in jihad with both his sword and his tongue.
