Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 17711

وَعَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا كَعْبُ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ ، إِذَا كَانَ عَلَيْكَ أُمَرَاءُ مَنْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَصَدَّقَهُمْ بِكَذِبِهِمْ ، وَأَعَانَهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ ; فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي ، وَلَا أَنَا مِنْهُ ، وَلَا يَرِدُ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ ، وَمَنْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ يُصَدِّقْهُمْ بِكَذِبِهِمْ ، وَلَمْ يُعِنْهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ ، فَهُوَ مِنِّي ، وَأَنَا مِنْهُ . يَا كَعْبُ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ ، إِنَّهُ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ لَحْمٌ وَلَا دَمٌ نَبَتَا مِنْ سُحْتٍ ; فَالنَّارُ أَوْلَى بِهِ . يَا كَعْبُ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ ، النَّاسُ غَادِيَانِ وَرَائِحَانِ : فَغَادٍ فِي فِكَاكِ رَقَبَتِهِ فَمُعْتِقُهَا ، وَغَادٍ فَمَوْبِقُهَا . يَا كَعْبُ ، الصَّلَاةُ بُرْهَانٌ ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ تُذْهِبُ الْخَطِيئَةَ كَمَا يَذْهَبُ الْجَلِيدُ عَلَى الصَّفَا " .
قُلْتُ : رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ بِاخْتِصَارٍ . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Ka'b bin Ujrah! When rulers come over you such that whoever goes to them affirms them in their lies and helps them in their oppression, that person has nothing to do with me and I have nothing to do with him, and he will not be able to come to me at the Pond; and whoever goes to them but does not affirm them in their lies and does not help them in their oppression, that person is connected with me and I am connected with him. O Ka'b bin Ujrah! No flesh or blood that has grown from what is unlawful will enter Paradise; Hell is more deserving of it. O Ka'b bin Ujrah! People begin their morning in two states: one man frees his neck and sets it free, and another enslaves it. O Ka'b! Prayer is a proof, and charity removes sin just as a frozen drop slips off a smooth surface." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say:
Al-Tirmidhi recorded it in abridged form.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
