Musnad Abi Ya'la 1571 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Indeed, Allah

الْحَارِثُ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ
حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، أَنَّ زَيْدًا حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ أَبَا سَلَّامٍ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ الْحَارِثَ الْأَشْعَرِيَّ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : إِنَّ اللهَ أَمَرَ يَحْيَى بْنَ زَكَرِيَّا بِخَمْسِ كَلِمَاتٍ يَعْمَلُ بِهِنَّ ، وَيَأْمُرُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِهِنَّ ، وَإِنَّ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ قَالَ لَهُ : إِنَّ اللهَ أَمَرَكَ بِخَمْسِ كَلِمَاتٍ تَعْمَلُ بِهِنَّ وَتَأْمُرُ بِهِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِهِنَّ ، فَإِمَّا أَنْ تَأْمُرَهُمْ ، وَإِمَّا أَنْ آمُرَهُمْ ؟ قَالَ : إِنَّكَ إِنْ تَسْبِقْنِي بِهِنَّ خَشِيتُ أَنْ أُعَذَّبَ ، أَوْ يُخْسَفَ بِي ، قَالَ : فَجَمَعَ النَّاسَ فِي بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ حَتَّى امْتَلَأَ ، وَقَعَدَ النَّاسُ عَلَى الشُّرُفَاتِ ، قَالَ : فَوَعَظَهُمْ ، قَالَ : إِنَّ اللهَ أَمَرَنِي بِخَمْسِ كَلِمَاتٍ أَعْمَلُ بِهِنَّ ، وَآمُرُكُمْ أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا بِهِنَّ : أُولَاهُنَّ أَنْ تَعْبُدُوا اللهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا ، وَإِنَّ مَثَلَ مَنْ أَشْرَكَ بِاللهِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ اشْتَرَى عَبْدًا مِنْ خَالِصِ مَالِهِ بِذَهَبٍ أَوْ وَرِقٍ ، قَالَ : هَذِهِ دَارِي ، وَهَذَا عَمَلِي ، فَاعْمَلْ وَأَدِّ إِلَيَّ ، فَجَعَلَ يَعْمَلُ وَيُؤَدِّي إِلَى غَيْرِ سَيِّدِهِ ، فَأَيُّكُمْ يَسُرُّهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَبْدُهُ كَذَلِكَ ؟ وَإِنَّ اللهَ خَلَقَكُمْ وَرَزَقَكُمْ فَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا ، وَأَمَرَكُمْ بِالصَّلَاةِ ، فَإِذَا صَلَّيْتُمْ فَلَا تَلْتَفِتُوا ، وَأَمَرَكُمْ بِالصِّيَامِ ، وَإِنَّ مَثَلَ ذَلِكَ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ كَانَتْ مَعَهُ صُرَّةٌ ، فِيهَا مِسْكٌ ، وَمَعَهُ عِصَابَةٌ كُلُّهُمْ يُعْجِبُهُ أَنْ يَجِدَ رِيحَهَا ، وَإِنَّ الصِّيَامَ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدَ اللهِ مِنْ رِيحِ الْمِسْكِ ، وَآمُرُكُمْ بِالصَّدَقَةِ ، وَإِنَّ مَثَلَ ذَلِكَ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ أَسَرَهُ الْعَدُوُّ وَقَامُوا إِلَيْهِ ، فَأَوْثَقُوا يَدَهُ إِلَى عُنُقِهِ ، فَقَالَ : هَلْ لَكُمْ أَنْ أَفْدِيَ نَفْسِي مِنْكُمْ ؟ قَالَ : فَجَعَلَ يُعْطِيهِمُ الْقَلِيلَ وَالْكَثِيرَ لِيَفُكَّ نَفْسَهُ مِنْهُمْ ، وَآمُرُكُمْ بِذِكْرِ اللهِ كَثِيرًا ، وَإِنَّ مَثَلَ ذَلِكَ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ طَلَبَهُ الْعَدُوُّ سِرَاعًا فِي إِثْرِهِ حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَى حِصْنٍ حَصِينٍ ، فَأَحْرَزَ نَفْسَهُ فِيهِ ، كَذَلِكَ الْعَبْدُ لَا يُحْرِزُ نَفْسَهُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ إِلَّا بِذِكْرِ اللهِ .
وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : وَأَنَا آمُرُكُمْ بِخَمْسٍ أَمَرَنِي اللهُ بِهِنَّ : الْجَمَاعَةِ ، وَالسَّمْعِ ، وَالطَّاعَةِ ، وَالْهِجْرَةِ ، وَالْجِهَادِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ، فَمَنْ فَارَقَ الْجَمَاعَةَ قِيدَ شِبْرٍ خُلِعَ الْإِسْلَامُ مِنْ رَأْسِهِ ، إِلَّا أَنْ يَرْجِعَ ، وَمَنْ دَعَا بِدَعْوَى الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ، فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ جُثَى جَهَنَّمَ ، قِيلَ : وَإِنْ صَامَ وَصَلَّى ؟ قَالَ : وَإِنْ صَلَّى وَصَامَ ، فَادْعُوا بِدَعْوَى اللهِ الَّذِي سَمَّاكُمُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عِبَادَ اللهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Harith al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah Almighty commanded Yahya bin Zakariyya (peace be upon them both) with five words, that he should act upon them himself and command the Children of Israel to act upon them. Sayyiduna Isa bin Maryam (peace be upon them both) said to him: Allah has commanded you with five words, that you act upon them yourself and command the Children of Israel with them; now either you convey this command to them, or I will convey this message to them. Sayyiduna Yahya (peace be upon him) said: O my brother! I fear that if you get ahead of me in this, I may be punished or made to sink into the earth. So he gathered the people in Bayt al-Maqdis until the mosque was full and people even sat on the high places and the parapets. Then he (peace be upon him) admonished them and said: Allah Almighty has commanded me with five things, that I act upon them myself and command you to act upon them. The first of them is that you worship Allah alone and do not associate anything with Him. The example of one who associates partners with Allah is that of a man who bought a slave with his own pure wealth, gold or silver, and said to him: This is my house and this is my work, so work and pay its earnings to me. But the slave kept working and kept giving his earnings to someone other than his master. Which of you would like his slave to be like that? So indeed it is Allah who created you and He who provides for you, therefore do not associate anyone with Him. And He has commanded you to pray, so when you pray, do not turn this way and that. And He has commanded you to fast; its example is that of a man who has a pouch of musk with him and is in a group in which everyone loves to catch its fragrance, and indeed the smell of the fasting person's mouth is purer with Allah than the fragrance of musk. And I command you to give charity; its example is that of a man whom the enemy took captive and tied his hands to his neck. Then he said to the enemy: Will you accept that I ransom my life? So he began giving little and much wealth to free himself, until he had freed himself from them. And I command you to remember Allah much; its example is that of a man whom the enemy is pursuing swiftly until he reaches a strong fortress and makes his life safe there. In the same way, a servant cannot protect himself from the attacks of the devil by anything except the remembrance of Allah." And the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And I too command you with five things that Allah has commanded me with: holding fast to the Jama'ah (the main body of the Muslims), listening to the leader, obeying him, emigration (hijrah), and jihad in the path of Allah. Whoever leaves the Jama'ah even by a hand-span has, as it were, thrown off the collar of Islam from his neck, unless he returns. And whoever calls with the slogans and partisanship of Jahiliyyah, he is one of the heaps of Hell." It was said: O Messenger of Allah! Even if he fasts and prays? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Even if he prays and fasts. So call with the call of Allah, who has named you 'Muslims', 'believers' and 'servants of Allah'."
