(وَصِيَّةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِعَشْرِ أُمُورٍ)
(The testament of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, regarding ten matters)
Mishkat al-Masabih 61 — The testament of the Messenger of Allah, peace
عَنْ مُعَاذٍ قَالَ: أَوْصَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِعَشْرِ كَلِمَاتٍ، قَالَ: "لَا تُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا ، وَإِنْ قُتِلْتَ وَحُرِّقْتُ، وَلَا تَعُقَّنَّ وَالِدَيْكَ وَإِنْ أَمَرَاكَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ وَمَالِكَ، وَلَا تَتْرُكَنَّ صَلَاةً مَكْتُوبَةً مُتَعَمِّدًا ؛ فَإِنَّ مَنْ تَرَكَ صَلَاةً مَكْتُوبَةً مُتَعَمِّدًا فَقَدْ بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ ذِمَّةُ اللَّهِ، وَلَا تَشْرَبَنَّ خَمْرًا فَإِنَّهُ رَأَسَ كُلِّ فَاحِشَةٍ، وَإِيَّاكَ وَالْمَعْصِيَةَ ؛ فَإِنَّ بِالْمَعْصِيَةِ حَلَّ سَخْطُ اللَّهِ، وَإِيَّاكَ وَالْفِرَارَ مِنَ الزَّحْفِ ، وَإِنْ هَلَكَ النَّاسُ، وَإِذَا أَصَابَ النَّاسَ مَوْتٌ وَأَنْتَ فِيهِمْ فَاثْبُتْ، ( أَنْفِقْ عَلَى عِيَالِكَ مِنْ طَوْلِكَ، وَلَا تَرْفَعْ عَنْهُمْ عَصَاكَ أَدَبًا وَأَخِفْهُمْ فِي اللَّهِ ". رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ.
Mu'adh said: God’s messenger recommended ten things to me saying, “Do not associate anything with God, even if you are killed and burnt on that account; do not be disobedient to your parents, even if they command you to quit your family and your property; do not deliberately neglect to observe a prescribed prayer, for he who deliberately neglects to observe a prescribed prayer will have God’s protection removed from him; do not drink wine, for it is the beginning of every abomination; avoid acts of disobedience, for on their account God’s wrath descends; beware of running away from the line of battle, even if the people perish: when people are smitten by death when you are among them, stay where you are ; spend on your children out of your means; do not refrain from using the rod in training them; and cause them to fear God.” Ahmad transmitted it.
