بَابُ التَّرْغِيْبِ فِي الصِّدْقِ وَالأَمَانَةِ
Chapter on encouragement to truthfulness and trustworthiness
Hadith 9232
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالصِّدْقِ فَإِنَّ الصِّدْقَ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْبِرِّ وَإِنَّ الْبِرَّ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَمَا يَزَالُ الرَّجُلُ يَصْدُقُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ صِدِّيقًا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Adhere to truthfulness, for indeed truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. And a servant continues to speak the truth until he is written with Allah as a truthful one (Siddiq).
Hadith 9233
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا عَمَلُ الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ الصِّدْقُ وَإِذَا صَدَقَ الْعَبْدُ بَرَّ وَإِذَا بَرَّ آمَنَ وَإِذَا آمَنَ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا عَمَلُ النَّارِ قَالَ الْكَذِبُ إِذَا كَذَبَ فَجَرَ وَإِذَا فَجَرَ كَفَرَ وَإِذَا كَفَرَ دَخَلَ يَعْنِي النَّارَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! What are the deeds of Paradise? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Truthfulness. When a servant speaks the truth, he does good; when he does good, he becomes a believer; and when he becomes a believer, he enters Paradise. The people said: O Messenger of Allah! What are the deeds of the Fire? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Falsehood. When a servant lies, he does evil; when he does evil, he becomes a disbeliever; and when he becomes a disbeliever, he enters the Fire.
Hadith 9234
عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ رِجَالٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَلْيَتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَلْيَقُلْ حَقًّا أَوْ لِيَسْكُتْ
Alqamah bin Abdullah Muzani narrates from some of the noble Companions that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever believes in Allah Almighty and the Last Day should fear Allah Almighty and speak the truth, or else remain silent.
Hadith 9235
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ يُقَالُ لَهُ يُوسُفُ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَرَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ نَلِي مَالَ أَيْتَامٍ قَالَ وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ قَدْ ذَهَبَ عَنِّي بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ قَالَ فَوَقَعَتْ لَهُ فِي يَدِي أَلْفُ دِرْهَمٍ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِلْقُرَشِيِّ إِنَّهُ قَدْ ذَهَبَ لِي بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ وَقَدْ أَصَبْتُ لَهُ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ قَالَ فَقَالَ الْقُرَشِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ أَدِّ الْأَمَانَةَ إِلَى مَنِ ائْتَمَنَكَ وَلَا تَخُنْ مَنْ خَانَكَ
A man from the people of Makkah named Yusuf says: I and a man from the Quraysh were guardians of some orphans’ wealth. It happened that a man (acting dishonestly) took one thousand dirhams from me, then one thousand dirhams of his came into my hands. I said to the Qurayshi: That person took one thousand dirhams of mine, now his one thousand dirhams have come to me, so should I keep this amount? He said: My father narrated that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When someone makes you a trustee, then return his trust to him and do not betray him, even if he has betrayed you.
Hadith 9236
عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ سَمِعَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ حَدِيثًا لَا يَشْتَهِي أَنْ يُذْكَرَ عَنْهُ فَهُوَ أَمَانَةٌ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَكْتِمْهُ
Sayyiduna Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever hears something from a man, and that man does not want that thing to be mentioned with reference to him, then that thing is a trust, even if the speaker does not instruct to keep it secret.
