885 صحيح حديث أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رضي الله عنه، قَالَ: جَاءَ ثَلاَثَةُ رَهْطٍ إِلَى بُيوتِ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْأَلُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَلَمَّا أُخْبِرُوا كَأَنَّهُمْ تَقَالُّوهَا، فَقَالُوا: وَأَيْنَ نَحْنُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ؛ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمْ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَإِنِّي أُصَلِّي اللَّيْلَ أَبَدًا؛ وَقَالَ آخَرُ: أَنَا أَصُومُ الدَّهْرَ وَلاَ أُفْطِرُ؛ وَقَالَ آخَرُ: أَنَا أَعْتَزِلُ النِّسَاءَ فَلاَ أَتَزَوَّجُ أَبَدًا فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ: أَنْتُمُ الَّذِينَ قُلْتُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا؛ أَمَا وَاللهِ إِنِّي لأَخْشَاكُمْ للهِ وَأَتْقَاكُمْ لَهُ، لكِنِّي أَصُومُ وَأُفْطِرُ، وَأُصَلِّي وَأَرْقُدُ، وَأَتَزَوَّجُ النِّسَاءَ؛ فَمَنْ رَغِبَ عَنْ سُنَّتِي فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that three men (Ali bin Abi Talib, Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-As, and Uthman bin Maz'un, may Allah be pleased with them) came to the houses of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to ask about his worship. When they were informed about the actions of the Prophet (peace be upon him), it seemed to them as if it was little, and they said, "What comparison do we have with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)? All his past and future mistakes have been forgiven." One of them said, "From today, I will always pray all night long." The second said, "I will always fast and never break my fast." The third said, "I will keep away from women and never marry." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came and asked them, "Are you the ones who said these things?" Listen! By Allah, I am the one who fears Allah the most among you, and I am the most pious among you, but I fast and I also break my fast, I pray (at night) and I also sleep, and I marry women. Whoever turns away from my way is not from me.
