اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ ، ثَنَا مَيْسَرَةُ ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنِ وَدَاعَةَ ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : جَدَّ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَاجْتَهَدُوا فِي طَاعَةِ اللهِ بِالْعَقْلِ ، وَجَدَّ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَاجْتَهَدُوا فِي طَاعَةِ اللهِ عَلَى قَدْرِ عُقُولِهِمْ ، فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِطَاعَةِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَوْفَرُهُمْ عَقْلًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The angels, using intellect and understanding, made great effort and exertion in obedience to Allah Almighty, and the people of faith strove and struggled in obedience and servitude to Allah according to the capacity of their intellects. Therefore, the one with the greatest knowledge of obedience to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, is the one among them who has the most complete and abundant share of intellect."
This report makes clear the virtue of intellect and insight and the key role of sound understanding in obedience to Allah.
