Hadith 11492

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ رَجَاءٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : أَوَّلُ مَنْ أَخْرَجَ الْمِنْبَرَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ مَرْوَانُ ، وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ بَدَأَ بِالْخُطْبَةِ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ ، فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ ، فَقَالَ : يَا مَرْوَانُ ، خَالَفْتَ السُّنَّةَ ، أَخْرَجْتَ الْمِنْبَرَ وَلَمْ يَكُ يُخْرَجُ ، وَبَدَأْتَ بِالْخُطْبَةِ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ , قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ : مَنْ هَذَا ؟ قَالُوا : فُلَانُ بْنُ فُلَانٍ , قَالَ : أَمَّا هَذَا فَقَدْ قَضَى مَا عَلَيْهِ ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " مَنْ رَأَى مُنْكَرًا ، فَإِنْ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يُغَيِّرَهُ بِيَدِهِ ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَبِلِسَانِهِ ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَبِقَلْبِهِ ، وَذَلِكَ أَضْعَفُ الْإِيمَانِ " .
It is narrated that once Marwan brought out the pulpit on the day of Eid, which was not usually brought out, and he started giving the sermon before the prayer, which had never happened before. Seeing this, a man stood up and said, "Marwan! You have opposed the Sunnah. You brought out the pulpit on the day of Eid, which was not brought out before, and you gave the sermon before the prayer, which had never happened before." In that gathering, Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) was also present. He asked, "Who is this man?" People informed him that he is so-and-so, son of so-and-so. He said, "This person has fulfilled his responsibility. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; if he is not able to do so, then with his tongue; and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart—and that is the weakest level of faith.'"
