Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 8

وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ - قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " مَنْ قَالَ : لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ ، دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ " قَالَ : قُلْتُ : وَإِنْ زَنَى ، وَإِنْ سَرَقَ ؟ قَالَ : " وَإِنْ زَنَى ، وَإِنْ سَرَقَ " ، قُلْتُ : وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ ؟ قَالَ : " وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ " ، قُلْتُ : وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ ؟ قَالَ : " وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ ، عَلَى رَغْمِ أَنْفِ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ " . قَالَ : فَخَرَجْتُ لِأُنَادِيَ بِهَا فِي النَّاسِ فَلَقِيَنِي عُمَرُ ، فَقَالَ : ارْجِعْ فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ إِنْ عَلِمُوا بِهَذِهِ اتَّكَلُوا عَلَيْهَا . قَالَ : فَرَجَعْتُ ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : " صَدَقَ عُمَرُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالْبَزَّارُ وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ وَالْأَوْسَطِ ، وَإِسْنَادُ أَحْمَدَ أَصَحُّ ، وَفِيهِ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، وَقَدِ احْتَجَّ بِهِ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ .
Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"Whoever says: 'There is no god but Allah, He alone is God and He has no partner,'
that person will enter Paradise." The narrator said: I said: "Even if he has committed adultery or stolen?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Even if he has committed adultery or stolen." I said: "Even if he has committed adultery or stolen?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Even if he has committed adultery or stolen." I said: "Even if he has committed adultery or stolen?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Even if he has committed adultery or stolen, even if the nose of Abu al-Darda' be rubbed in the dust!" (That is, however displeasing this may be to him.)
The narrator said: I went out to announce this among the people, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) met me. He said: "Go back! For if the people come to know of this, they will rely on it alone." The narrator said: So I came back
and told the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Umar has spoken rightly."
Imam Ahmad, al-Bazzar and Imam al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat recorded it. The chain of Imam Ahmad is the most authentic; it contains a narrator, Ibn Lahi'ah, whom several scholars have used as evidence.
