Hadith 9660
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَا تَغَارُ قَالَ ((وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَغَارُ وَاللَّهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي وَمِنْ غَيْرَتِهِ نَهَى عَنِ الْفَوَاحِشِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that someone said to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "Do you not have a sense of honor (ghayrah)?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "By Allah! Indeed, I have a sense of honor, and Allah is more possessive of honor than I am. And it is due to His sense of honor that He has forbidden indecent acts and immoralities."
Hadith 9661
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((الْمُؤْمِنُ يَغَارُ وَاللَّهُ يَغَارُ وَمِنْ غَيْرَةِ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ الْمُؤْمِنُ شَيْئًا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ))
(Second chain) The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The believer also feels protective jealousy, and Allah Almighty also feels protective jealousy, and it is the demand of Allah Almighty’s protective jealousy that the believer should not do that which Allah Almighty has declared unlawful.
Hadith 9662
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((الْمُؤْمِنُ الْمُؤْمِنُ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا يَغَارُ يَغَارُ وَاللَّهُ أَشَدُّ غَيْرًا))
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A believer feels jealousy, a believer feels jealousy, but Allah Almighty is the most jealous of all.
Hadith 9663
عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ لَوْ رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا مَعَ امْرَأَتِي لَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ غَيْرَ مُصْفَحٍ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ ((أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ غَيْرَةِ سَعْدٍ وَاللَّهِ لَأَنَا أَغْيَرُ مِنْهُ وَاللَّهُ أَغْيَرُ مِنِّي وَمِنْ أَجْلِ غَيْرَةِ اللَّهِ حَرَّمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَغْيَرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْعُذْرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ الْمُرْسَلِينَ مُبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنْذِرِينَ وَلَا شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِدْحَةٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Sa’d bin ‘Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If I see a man with my wife, I will strike him with the sharp edge of my sword. When this statement reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: Are you amazed at Sa’d’s sense of honor? By Allah! I am more possessive than him, and Allah is more possessive than me. And it is because of this that Allah has forbidden all kinds of outward and inward indecencies and immoralities. There is none who loves to accept excuses more than Allah, and for this reason, Allah sent messengers as bearers of glad tidings and as warners. And there is none who loves to be praised more than Allah, and for this reason, Allah has promised Paradise.
Hadith 9664
مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ لَيْسَ ثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ مِثْلُهُ سَوَاءٌ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ لَيْسَ حَدِيثٌ أَشَدَّ عَلَى الْجَهْمِيَّةِ مِنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَوْلُهُ ((لَا شَخْصَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِدْحَةً مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ))
. (Second chain) Ubaidullah Qawariyri says: This hadith is the harshest against the Jahmiyyah: There is no one to whom praise is more beloved than Allah Almighty.
Hadith 9665
عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ ((لَا شَيْءَ أَغْيَرُ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ))
It is narrated from Sayyida Asma bint Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say that no one is more protective (possesses more honor) than Allah Almighty.
Hadith 9666
عَنْ زَيْنَبَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ اسْتَيْقَظَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ نَوْمٍ وَهُوَ مُحْمَرٌّ وَجْهُهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ ((لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَيْلٌ لِلْعَرَبِ مِنْ شَرٍّ قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ فُتِحَ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ رَدْمِ يَأْجُوجَ وَمَأْجُوجَ مِثْلُ هَذِهِ)) وَحَلَّقَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَهْلِكُ وَفِينَا الصَّالِحُونَ قَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((نَعَمْ إِذَا كَثُرَ الْخَبَثُ))
Narrated from Sayyida Zainab bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) woke up from sleep, while his face was red, and he was saying: "There is no god but Allah. Woe to the Arabs because of the evil that has drawn near. Today, a hole as big as this has been opened in the wall of Gog and Magog." And he (peace and blessings be upon him) made a circle with his fingers to show it. I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Will we be destroyed while there are righteous people among us?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, when evil becomes widespread."
Hadith 9667
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا تَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((إِذَا ظَهَرَ السُّوءُ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ بِأَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ بَأْسَهُ)) قَالَتْ وَفِيهِمْ أَهْلُ طَاعَةِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَالَ ((نَعَمْ ثُمَّ يَصِيرُونَ إِلَى رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى))
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When evil becomes manifest in the land, Allah Almighty will send His punishment upon the people of the earth. Sayyida (Aisha) said: Even though there are people among them who obey Allah Almighty? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes, but then they will be transferred to the mercy of Allah Almighty.
Hadith 9668
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ آكِلَ الرِّبَا وَمُوكِلَهُ وَشَاهِدَيْهِ وَكَاتِبَهُ وَالْوَاشِمَةَ وَالْمُسْتَوْشِمَةَ وَالْمُحَلِّلَ وَالْمُحَلَّلَ لَهُ وَمَانِعَ الصَّدَقَةِ وَكَانَ يَنْهَى عَنِ النَّوْحِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who consumes usury, the one who gives it, its two witnesses, the one who writes it, the one who fills sesame, the one for whom sesame is filled, the one who performs halalah, the one for whom halalah is performed, and the one who withholds charity or zakat. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to prohibit wailing as well.
Hadith 9669
عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ الْفَزَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِمَّا يَقُولُ لِأَصْحَابِهِ ((هَلْ رَأَى أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ رُؤْيَا)) قَالَ فَيَقُصُّ عَلَيْهِ مَنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَقُصَّ قَالَ وَإِنَّهُ قَالَ لَنَا ذَاتَ غَدَاةٍ ((إِنَّهُ أَتَانِي اللَّيْلَةَ آتِيَانِ وَإِنَّهُمَا ابْتَعَثَانِي وَإِنَّهُمَا قَالَا لِي

أَتَعَجَّبُ مِنْ فَصَاحَةِ عَبَّادٍ
Narrated from Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub Fazari (may Allah be pleased with him), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say to his companions among the things he would instruct: “Has any of you seen a dream?” Then, according to Allah’s will, those who had seen would narrate. One morning, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us: “Last night, two angels came to me. They woke me up and said: ‘Come.’ So I went with them. We came to a man who was lying down, and another man was standing over him with a large stone. He would strike his head with the stone, crushing it. The stone would roll away, and when he went to retrieve it and returned, the man’s head would be restored as before. Then he would do to him what he had done the first time. I said: ‘Glory be to Allah! Who are these two?’ They said to me: ‘Move on, move on.’ So I went with them.
Then we came to a man lying on his back, and another person was standing over him with an iron hook. He would come to one side of his face and tear his mouth, nostrils, and eyes up to the back of his head. Then he would go to the other side of his face and do the same. Meanwhile, the first side would be restored as before. Then he would return to it and tear it again as he had done the first time. I said: ‘Glory be to Allah! Who are these two?’ They said: ‘Move on, move on.’ So I went with them.
Then we reached something like a furnace, in which there was noise and voices. I looked into it and saw naked men and women. Flames of fire would rise from beneath them, and they would scream and cry out. I said to them: ‘Who are these people?’ They said: ‘Move on, move on.’ So we moved on and came to a river, the color of which was red like blood. In it, a man was swimming, and as he swam, he would come to another man who had collected stones. When he reached him, he would open his mouth, and the other would throw a stone into it. Then he would start swimming again, and whenever he returned, he would open his mouth, and the other would throw a stone into it. I said: ‘What is this?’ They said to me: ‘Move on, move on.’ So we moved on and came to a man of the most hideous appearance. If you were to see him, you would find him the most repulsive in appearance. He had a fire with him, which he was kindling and running around it. I said to them: ‘What is this?’ They said to me: ‘Move on, move on.’
So we moved on and reached a beautiful garden with green grass, in which were flowers of every color of spring. In the middle of the garden stood a man so tall that I could hardly see his head because of his height. Around him were many beautiful and handsome children. I said to them: ‘Who is this, and who are these?’ They said: ‘Move on, move on.’ So we moved on and came to a large and expansive tree, very big and beautiful. They said to me: ‘Climb it.’ So we climbed it and reached a city, one brick of which was gold and one was silver. We went to the gate of the city and asked for it to be opened. So it was opened for us, and we entered. Among the people there, some were very beautiful and some were ugly. Then the two said to them: ‘Go and fall into that river.’ It was a small, flowing, extremely white river. So they went and entered the river, and when they returned, their ugliness had disappeared, and they had become completely beautiful.
Then the two said to me: ‘This is the Garden of Eden, and this is your place.’ Then I looked up and saw a palace like a white cloud. They said to me: ‘This is your place.’ I said to them: ‘May Allah bless you, let me enter it.’ But they said: ‘Not now, but you will surely enter it.’ Then I said to them: ‘Tonight I have seen very strange things. Now tell me, what were these things?’ They said: ‘Now we will tell you. The man whose head was being crushed was a person who learned the Qur’an and then abandoned it and slept through the obligatory prayers. The man whose mouth, eyes, and nostrils were being torn to the back of his head was one who lied in his house, and his lie would reach the horizons of the world. The naked men and women you saw in something like a well were adulterers. The man swimming in the river and having stones thrown into his mouth was a usurer. The hideous man kindling the fire was the keeper of Hell, his name is Malik. The tall man in the garden was Ibrahim (peace be upon him), and the children around him were those who died upon the natural disposition (fitrah). At that time, some Muslims said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Were there also the children of the polytheists among them?’ He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Yes, the children of the polytheists were also among them.’ The people, some of whom were beautiful and some ugly, were those who had done both good and bad deeds, but Allah had forgiven them.”
Then we came to a man lying on his back, and another person was standing over him with an iron hook. He would come to one side of his face and tear his mouth, nostrils, and eyes up to the back of his head. Then he would go to the other side of his face and do the same. Meanwhile, the first side would be restored as before. Then he would return to it and tear it again as he had done the first time. I said: ‘Glory be to Allah! Who are these two?’ They said: ‘Move on, move on.’ So I went with them.
Then we reached something like a furnace, in which there was noise and voices. I looked into it and saw naked men and women. Flames of fire would rise from beneath them, and they would scream and cry out. I said to them: ‘Who are these people?’ They said: ‘Move on, move on.’ So we moved on and came to a river, the color of which was red like blood. In it, a man was swimming, and as he swam, he would come to another man who had collected stones. When he reached him, he would open his mouth, and the other would throw a stone into it. Then he would start swimming again, and whenever he returned, he would open his mouth, and the other would throw a stone into it. I said: ‘What is this?’ They said to me: ‘Move on, move on.’ So we moved on and came to a man of the most hideous appearance. If you were to see him, you would find him the most repulsive in appearance. He had a fire with him, which he was kindling and running around it. I said to them: ‘What is this?’ They said to me: ‘Move on, move on.’
So we moved on and reached a beautiful garden with green grass, in which were flowers of every color of spring. In the middle of the garden stood a man so tall that I could hardly see his head because of his height. Around him were many beautiful and handsome children. I said to them: ‘Who is this, and who are these?’ They said: ‘Move on, move on.’ So we moved on and came to a large and expansive tree, very big and beautiful. They said to me: ‘Climb it.’ So we climbed it and reached a city, one brick of which was gold and one was silver. We went to the gate of the city and asked for it to be opened. So it was opened for us, and we entered. Among the people there, some were very beautiful and some were ugly. Then the two said to them: ‘Go and fall into that river.’ It was a small, flowing, extremely white river. So they went and entered the river, and when they returned, their ugliness had disappeared, and they had become completely beautiful.
Then the two said to me: ‘This is the Garden of Eden, and this is your place.’ Then I looked up and saw a palace like a white cloud. They said to me: ‘This is your place.’ I said to them: ‘May Allah bless you, let me enter it.’ But they said: ‘Not now, but you will surely enter it.’ Then I said to them: ‘Tonight I have seen very strange things. Now tell me, what were these things?’ They said: ‘Now we will tell you. The man whose head was being crushed was a person who learned the Qur’an and then abandoned it and slept through the obligatory prayers. The man whose mouth, eyes, and nostrils were being torn to the back of his head was one who lied in his house, and his lie would reach the horizons of the world. The naked men and women you saw in something like a well were adulterers. The man swimming in the river and having stones thrown into his mouth was a usurer. The hideous man kindling the fire was the keeper of Hell, his name is Malik. The tall man in the garden was Ibrahim (peace be upon him), and the children around him were those who died upon the natural disposition (fitrah). At that time, some Muslims said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Were there also the children of the polytheists among them?’ He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Yes, the children of the polytheists were also among them.’ The people, some of whom were beautiful and some ugly, were those who had done both good and bad deeds, but Allah had forgiven them.”

عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا صَلَّى صَلَاةَ الْغَدَاةِ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ ((هَلْ رَأَى أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمُ اللَّيْلَةَ رُؤْيَا فَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ رَأَى تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ رُؤْيَا قَصَّهَا عَلَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ فِيهَا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ)) فَسَأَلَنَا يَوْمًا فَقَالَ ((هَلْ رَأَى أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمُ اللَّيْلَةَ رُؤْيَا)) فَقُلْنَا لَا قَالَ ((لَكِنْ أَنَا رَأَيْتُ رَجُلَيْنِ أَتَيَانِي فَأَخَذَا بِيَدِي فَأَخْرَجَانِي إِلَى أَرْضٍ فَضَاءٍ أَوْ أَرْضٍ مُسْتَوِيَةٍ فَمَرَّا بِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ)) فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ الْحَدِيثِ الْمُتَقَدِّمِ وَفِيهِ ((فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُمَا فَإِذَا بَيْتٌ مَبْنِيٌّ عَلَى بِنَاءِ التَّنُّورِ أَعْلَاهُ ضَيِّقٌ وَأَسْفَلُهُ وَاسِعٌ يُوقَدُ تَحْتَهُ نَارٌ فَإِذَا فِيهِ رِجَالٌ وَنِسَاءٌ عُرَاةٌ فَإِذَا أُوقِدَتِ ارْتَفَعُوا حَتَّى يَكَادُوا أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا فَإِذَا خَمَدَتْ رَجَعُوا فِيهَا)) وَفِيهِ ((فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَإِذَا نَهَرٌ مِنْ دَمٍّ فِيهِ رَجُلٌ وَعَلَى شَطِّ النَّهْرِ رَجُلٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ حِجَارَةٌ فَيُقْبِلُ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي فِي النَّهْرِ فَإِذَا دَنَا لِيَخْرُجَ رَمَى فِي فِيهِ حَجَرًا فَرَجَعَ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ)) وَفِيهِ ((فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَإِذَا رَوْضَةٌ خَضْرَاءُ فَإِذَا فِيهَا شَجَرَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ وَإِذَا شَيْخٌ فِي أَصْلِهَا حَوْلَهُ صِبْيَانٌ وَإِذَا رَجُلٌ قَرِيبٌ مِنْهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ نَارٌ يَحُشُّهَا وَيُوقِدُهَا فَصَعِدَا بِي فِي الشَّجَرَةِ فَأَدْخَلَانِي دَارًا لَمْ أَرَ دَارًا أَحْسَنَ مِنْهَا فَإِذَا فِيهَا رِجَالٌ شُيُوخٌ وَشَبَابٌ وَفِيهَا نِسَاءٌ وَصِبْيَانٌ فَأَخْرَجَانِي مِنْهَا فَصَعِدَا بِي فِي الشَّجَرَةِ فَأَدْخَلَانِي دَارًا هِيَ أَحْسَنُ وَأَفْضَلُ مِنْهَا فِيهَا شُيُوخٌ وَشَبَابٌ)) وَفِيهِ ((وَأَمَّا الدَّارُ الَّتِي دَخَلْتَ أَوَّلًا فَدَارُ عَامَّةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَأَمَّا الدَّارُ الْأُخْرَى فَدَارُ الشُّهَدَاءِ وَأَنَا جِبْرِيلُ وَهَذَا مِيكَائِيلُ ثُمَّ قَالَا لِي ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَإِذَا هِيَ كَهَيْئَةِ السَّحَابِ فَقَالَا لِي وَتِلْكَ دَارُكَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُمَا دَعَانِي أَدْخُلْ دَارِي فَقَالَا إِنَّهُ قَدْ بَقِيَ لَكَ عَمَلٌ لَمْ تَسْتَكْمِلْهُ فَلَوِ اسْتَكْمَلْتَهُ دَخَلْتَ دَارَكَ))
(Second chain of narration) When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, would perform the Fajr prayer and turn his face towards us, he would say: "Has any of you seen a dream?" If anyone had seen a dream, he would narrate it. On that day, we said: "No, we have not seen any dream." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "I have seen a dream today. Two men came to me, they took hold of my hand and led me to an open and level land. Then they made me pass by a man, ..." The narrator narrated a hadith similar to the previous one, except that in this one it is mentioned: "So I went with them and saw a house built in the design of a furnace, its upper part was narrow and its lower part was open. A fire was being kindled beneath it. There were naked men and women inside it. When the fire was kindled beneath them, they would rise so high that it seemed they would almost come out, but when the fire subsided, they would return to the bottom." Further in this narration it is mentioned: "Then I proceeded and saw a river of blood, in which there was a man, and on the bank of the river there was a person, and in front of him were stones. When the man in the river tried to come out and was about to do so, the person on the bank would throw a stone at his mouth, causing him to return to his place." Further in it is mentioned: "Then I went ahead and saw a lush garden, in it was a large tree, at its trunk was an elderly man and around him were children, and near them was a man, in front of him was a fire, and he was kindling it. Both of them took me up the tree and made me enter a house, it was a very beautiful house, in it were elderly people, youth, women, and children. Then they took me out from there, made me climb the tree further, and entered me into a house which was more beautiful and better than the first house, and in it also were elderly people and children." Then I was told: "The house you first entered is the house of the common believers, and the second is the house of the martyrs. And I am Jibreel, and this is Mikaeel." Then they said to me: "Raise your head." So I raised my head and saw something like clouds. Then they said to me: "And that is your house." I said to them: "Then let me enter my house." But they said: "No, there are still some deeds remaining upon you, which you have not yet completed. If you had completed them, you would have entered your house."
Hadith 9671
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ يَعْمَلُ فِي صَخْرَةٍ صَمَّاءَ لَيْسَ لَهَا بَابٌ وَلَا كُوَّةٌ لَخَرَجَ عَمَلُهُ لِلنَّاسِ كَائِنًا مَا كَانَ
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If a person performs a deed inside a solid rock, which has neither a door nor a window, even then his deed will come out for the people, whatever kind it may be.
Hadith 9672
عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ خَالِدٍ أَنَّ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيَّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مَرَّ عَلَى خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ أَيِّنِ كَلِمَةٍ سَمِعَهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ أَلَا كُلُّكُمْ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ إِلَّا مَنْ شَرَدَ عَلَى اللَّهِ شِرَادَ الْبَعِيرِ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ
Ali bin Khalid says that Abu Umamah Bahili (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by Khalid bin Yazid bin Muawiyah. He asked him about the gentlest words he had heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Every one of you will enter Paradise, except the one who rebelled against Allah in the way a camel bolts from its owner.
Hadith 9673
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يَدْخُلُ النَّارَ إِلَّا شَقِيٌّ قِيلَ وَمَنِ الشَّقِيُّ قَالَ الَّذِي لَا يَعْمَلُ بِطَاعَةٍ وَلَا يَتْرُكُ لِلَّهِ مَعْصِيَةً
Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The wretched one will not enter Paradise. Someone asked: Who is the wretched one? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The one who neither performs any act of obedience nor refrains from any act of disobedience for the sake of Allah Almighty.
Hadith 9674
حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ وَعَفَّانُ قَالَا ثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ وَعَطَاءٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا يَسْرِقُ حَيْنَ يَسْرِقُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَزْنِي حَيْنَ يَزْنِي وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ حَيْنَ يَشْرَبُهَا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَغُلُّ حَيْنَ يَغُلُّ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَنْتَهِبُ حَيْنَ يَنْتَهِبُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ وَلَا يَنْتَهِبُ نُهْبَةً ذَاتَ شَرَفٍ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ قَالَ بَهْزٌ فَقِيلَ لَهُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ يُنْتَزَعُ مِنْهُ الْإِيمَانُ فَإِنْ تَابَ تَابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When a thief steals, he is not a believer; when an adulterer commits adultery, he is not a believer; when a person drinks alcohol, he is not a believer; when a person betrays, he is not a believer; and when a person commits robbery, he is not a believer. The words of the narrator ‘Ata are: Whoever commits robbery openly among people, he is not a believer. When Bahz, the narrator, was asked about the meaning of this hadith, he said: Faith is taken away from such a person, then if he repents, Allah Almighty accepts his repentance.
Hadith 9675
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ ذَكَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْكَبَائِرَ أَوْ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْكَبَائِرِ فَقَالَ الشِّرْكُ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَقَتْلُ النَّفْسِ وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ وَقَالَ أَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِأَكْبَرِ الْكَبَائِرِ قَالَ قَوْلُ الزُّورِ أَوْ قَالَ شَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ أَكْبَرُ ظَنِّي أَنَّهُ قَالَ شَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the major sins, or he was asked about them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Associating partners with Allah, killing a soul, and disobeying parents. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Shall I not inform you of the greatest of sins? Then he said: It is false speech. Or he said: It is false testimony. Imam Shu’bah says: The predominant opinion is that he (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned false testimony.
Hadith 9676
عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِأَكْبَرِ الْكَبَائِرِ ثَلَاثًا الْإِشْرَاكُ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَالَ وَذُكِرَ الْكَبَائِرُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ الْإِشْرَاكُ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ وَكَانَ مُتَّكِئًا فَجَلَسَ وَقَالَ وَشَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ وَشَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ وَشَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ أَوْ قَوْلُ الزُّورِ وَشَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ فَمَا زَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُكَرِّرُهَا حَتَّى قُلْنَا لَيْتَهُ سَكَتَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: We were sitting with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Shall I not inform you about the greatest of the major sins? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times, and that is associating partners with Allah Almighty. The narrator says: The mention of major sins was made in the presence of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Associating partners with Allah Almighty and disobedience to parents. He (peace and blessings be upon him) was reclining, then he sat up and began to say: And false testimony, false testimony, false testimony, or he said: False speech and false testimony. He (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this phrase so many times that we said: Would that he (peace and blessings be upon him) would now remain silent.
Hadith 9677
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أُنَيْسٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ مِنْ أَكْبَرِ الْكَبَائِرِ الشِّرْكُ بِاللَّهِ وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ وَالْيَمِينُ الْغَمُوسُ وَمَا حَلَفَ حَالِفٌ بِاللَّهِ يَمِينًا صَبْرًا فَأَدْخَلَ فِيهَا مِثْلَ جَنَاحِ بَعُوضَةٍ إِلَّا جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ نُكْتَةً فِي قَلْبِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Anis Juhani, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Associating partners with Allah, disobedience to parents, and false oaths are among the gravest sins. Whoever swears a false oath in the name of Allah and introduces even as much falsehood as the wing of a mosquito into it, Allah Almighty will mark that evil as a spot upon his heart until the Day of Resurrection.
Hadith 9678
عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَنْ جَاءَ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَيُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ وَيَصُومُ رَمَضَانَ وَيَجْتَنِبُ الْكَبَائِرَ فَإِنَّ لَهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَسَأَلُوهُ مَا الْكَبَائِرُ قَالَ الْإِشْرَاكُ بِاللَّهِ وَقَتْلُ النَّفْسِ الْمُسْلِمَةِ وَفِرَارٌ يَوْمَ الزَّحْفِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever comes (to Allah) in such a state that he has not associated anyone with Allah, established prayer, paid zakat, fasted in Ramadan, and avoided major sins, then Paradise will be for him. Then the people asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about the major sins, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Associating partners with Allah, killing a Muslim soul, and fleeing on the day of battle.
Hadith 9679
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَكْبَرُ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَيٌّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَيٌّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ تَصْدِيقَ ذَلِكَ فِي كِتَابِهِ {وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثَامًا} [الفرقان: 68]
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked: Which sin is the greatest? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: That you associate a partner with Allah, while He created you. He asked: Then which one? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: Then that you kill your child out of fear that he will eat with you. He asked: Then which one is it? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: Then that you commit adultery with your neighbor’s wife. So Allah Almighty confirmed these matters in His Book with these words: And those who do not call upon any other god along with Allah, nor kill a soul which Allah has forbidden except by right, nor commit adultery—and whoever does this shall meet a severe penalty. (: Surah Al-Furqan: 68)
Hadith 9680
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ الْكَبَائِرُ الْإِشْرَاكُ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ أَوْ قَتْلُ النَّفْسِ شُعْبَةُ الشَّاكُّ الْيَمِينُ الْغَمُوسُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Major sins are these: associating partners with Allah Almighty, disobedience to parents, killing a soul, and false oath. Imam Shu’bah was in doubt.
Hadith 9681
عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ أَلَا إِنَّمَا هُنَّ أَرْبَعٌ أَنْ لَا تُشْرِكُوا بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا تَزْنُوا وَلَا تَسْرِقُوا قَالَ فَمَا أَنَا بِأَشَحَّ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِنِّي إِذَا سَمِعْتُهُنَّ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ
Sayyiduna Salamah bin Qais Ashja'i (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said during the Farewell Pilgrimage: Beware! There are only four things: That you do not associate partners with Allah, do not kill a soul which Allah has forbidden except with due right, do not commit adultery, and do not steal. Then Sayyiduna Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I am the most eager regarding them, because I myself heard them from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
Hadith 9682
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ الظُّلْمُ ظُلُمَاتٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَإِيَّاكُمْ الْفُحْشَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْفُحْشَ وَلَا التَّفَحُّشَ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالشُّحَّ فَإِنَّ الشُّحَّ أَهْلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ أَمَرَهُمْ بِالْقَطِيعَةِ فَقَطَعُوا وَأَمَرَهُمْ بِالْبُخْلِ فَبَخِلُوا وَأَمَرَهُمْ بِالْفُجُورِ فَفَجَرُوا قَالَ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ الْإِسْلَامِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ أَنْ يَسْلَمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِكَ وَيَدِكَ (الْحَدِيثَ)
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Beware of oppression! For oppression will be (many) darknesses on the Day of Resurrection. Avoid foul speech, for indeed Allah Almighty does not like abusive and obscene language. And beware of intense love for wealth! For this very thing destroyed those before you; it commanded them to sever ties of kinship, so they severed them; it incited them to miserliness, so they became miserly; and it commanded them to commit evil, so they committed evil. A man stood up and said: Which Islam is best? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: That other Muslims are safe from your tongue and your hand.
