بَابُ: «الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَلَمْ يَلْبِسُوا إِيْمَانَهُمْ بِظُلْمٍ»
Chapter: "Those who believe and do not mix their belief with injustice"
Hadith 8597
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَلَمْ يَلْبِسُوا إِيمَانَهُمْ بِظُلْمٍ [سورة الأنعام: ٨٢] شَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَأَيُّنَا لَا يَظْلِمُ نَفْسَهُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ الَّذِي تَعْنُونَ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا مَا قَالَ الْعَبْدُ الصَّالِحُ يَا بُنَيَّ لَا تُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّ الشِّرْكَ لَظُلْمٌ عَظِيمٌ [سورة لقمان: ١٣] إِنَّمَا هُوَ الشِّرْكُ وَفِي لَفْظٍ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا مَا قَالَ لُقْمَانُ لِابْنِهِ لَا تُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّ الشِّرْكَ لَظُلْمٌ عَظِيمٌ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him): When this verse was revealed: {الَّذِینَ آمَنُوْا وَلَمْ یَلْبِسُوْا إِیمَانَہُمْ بِظُلْمٍ} … Those who believe and do not mix their belief with injustice… this was very hard on the people and they said: O Messenger of Allah! Who among us has not wronged himself? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It does not mean what you think. Have you not heard the words of the righteous servant when he said: {یَا بُنَیَّ لَا تُشْرِکْ بِاللّٰہِ إِنَّ الشِّرْکَ لَظُلْمٌ عَظِیمٌ} … O my dear son! Do not associate anything with Allah. Indeed, associating partners with Allah is a great injustice. In this verse, injustice means shirk (associating partners with Allah). In another narration, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Have you not heard what Luqman said to his son: {لَا تُشْرِکْ بِاللّٰہِ إِنَّ الشِّرْکَ لَظُلْمٌ عَظِیمٌ} … Do not associate anything with Allah. Indeed, associating partners with Allah is a great injustice.
