Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 15709

وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ : إِنَّ مُعَاذًا كَانَ أُمَّةً قَانِتًا لِلَّهِ ، حَنِيفًا مُسْلِمًا ، وَلَمْ يَكُ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ .
فَقَالَ بَعْضُ جُلَسَائِهِ : إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ . قَالَ : لَمْ أَنْسَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : أَتَدْرُونَ مَا الْأُمَّةُ ؟ قَالُوا : لَا . قَالَ : الَّذِي يُعَلِّمُ النَّاسَ الْخَيْرَ . قَالَ : هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَا الْقَانِتُ ؟ قَالُوا : لَا قَالَ : الْمُطِيعُ لِلَّهِ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرَ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) was an ummah, obedient to Allah Almighty, upright (hanif) and a Muslim, and he was not one of the polytheists. The narrator says: One of those sitting with him said: (But these words were said about) Ibrahim (peace be upon him). He said: I have not forgotten. Then Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: Do you people know what is meant by ummah? The people replied: No! Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: It means the person who teaches people goodness. Then Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: Do you know what is meant by qanit? The people replied: No! Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: It means the person who is obedient to Allah Almighty.
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih except Hajjaj bin Ibrahim, who is thiqah (trustworthy).
