Musnad of Anas bin Malik
Musnad Abi Ya'la 4034 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The word 'La
حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ ، حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ تَمْنَعُ الْعَبْدَ مِنْ سَخَطِ اللهِ مَا لَمْ يُؤْثِرُوا سَفْقَةَ دُنْيَاهُمْ عَلَى دِينِهِمْ ، فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ ، قَالَ اللهُ : كَذَبْتُمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The word 'La ilaha illallah' (There is none worthy of worship in truth except Allah) protects the servant from the displeasure and wrath of Allah Almighty as long as they do not prefer the trade and financial interests of their world over their religion. Then when they begin to do that (i.e. put the world before the religion) and after that say 'La ilaha illallah', Allah Almighty says: 'You have lied.'"
