Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 18400

وَعَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ حَيْدَةَ قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : " مَا لِي أَمْسِكُ بِحُجَزِكُمْ عَنِ النَّارِ ؟ أَلَا إِنَّ رَبِّي - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - دَاعِيَّ ، وَإِنَّهُ سَائِلِي : هَلْ بَلَّغْتَ عِبَادِي ؟ وَإِنِّي قَائِلٌ : رَبِّ إِنِّي قَدْ بَلَّغْتُهُمْ ، فَلْيُبَلِّغِ الشَّاهِدُ مِنْكُمُ الْغَائِبَ ، ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ مَدْعُوُّونَ مُفَدَّمَةً أَفْوَاهُكُمْ بِالْفِدَامِ ، إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا يَبِينُ عَنْ أَحَدِكُمْ لَفَخِذُهُ وَكَفُّهُ " . قُلْتُ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ، هَذَا دِينُنَا ؟ قَالَ : " هَذَا دِينُكُمْ وَأَيْنَمَا تُحْسِنْ يَكْفِكَ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ فِي حَدِيثٍ طَوِيلٍ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah bin Haydah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why is it that I hold you by your waists to stop you from going into Hell? Behold! My Lord is going to call me and ask me: 'Did you convey (the message) to My servants?' And I will say: 'O my Lord! I conveyed it to them.' (Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to those present:) Let those of you who are present convey it to those who are absent. Then you will be called (on the Day of Resurrection) with your mouths sealed, and the first thing that will speak on behalf of any one of you will be his thigh and his palm."
The narrator says: I said: "O Messenger of Allah! This is our religion?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is your religion; wherever you do good, it will suffice you (or: this religion will suffice you)."
Imam Ahmad recorded it within a long hadith, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
