اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ ، أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْر بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ : " إِنَّا نَجِدُ صَلَاةَ الْحَضَرِ ، وَصَلَاةَ الْخَوْفِ فِي الْقُرْآنِ ، وَلَا نَجِدُ صَلَاةَ السَّفَرِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ بَعَثَ إِلَيْنَا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَا نَعْلَمُ شَيْئًا ، فَإِنَّمَا نَفْعَلُ كَمَا رَأَيْنَا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْعَلُ " .
´It was narrated from Umayyah bin ‘Abdullah bin Khalid that he said to ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar:` “We find (mention of) the prayer of the resident and the prayer in a state of fear in the Qur’an, but we do not find any mention of the prayer of the traveler. ‘Abdullah said to him: “Allah sent Muhammad (ﷺ) to us, and we did not know anything, rather we do what we saw Muhammad (ﷺ) doing.”
Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊
In the Noble Qur’an, rulings are stated in a concise manner.
Their explanation is provided by the hadiths.
Therefore, it is necessary to have faith in and act upon both.
➋
An authentic hadith cannot be contrary to the Noble Qur’an; however, it is possible that a ruling in the Qur’an is stated in an absolute or general sense, and from the hadith it becomes known that this ruling is not absolute but rather restricted by a certain condition.
Or, that this ruling is not general but rather specific to certain situations. It is not permissible to abandon such a hadith by claiming it is contrary to the Qur’an or that it adds to the Qur’anic ruling.
Because this is not an addition, but rather the clarification (tabyin) of the Qur’an,
which was the responsibility of the Noble Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
