Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ud
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5167 — a man said: O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Which sin
وَعَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَكْبَرُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تَدْعُوَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ»، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ: «ثُمَّ أَنْ تُزَانِي حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ»، قَالَ: فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَصْدِيقَهَا: {وَالَّذِينَ لَا يُدْعَوْنَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ} [الفرقان: 68]
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Which sin is the greatest in the sight of Allah Almighty?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That you set up a rival and partner to Allah, while it is He who created you." He asked: Then which after that? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then that you commit adultery with your neighbour's wife." Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: Then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse in confirmation of it: "And those who do not invoke another god along with Allah, nor kill the soul which Allah has made sacred except by right."
