Hadith 20043

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، أَخْبَرَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ أَتَيْتُهُ , فَقُلْتُ : وَاللَّهِ مَا أَتَيْتُكَ حَتَّى حَلَفْتُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ عَدَدِ أُولَاءِ أَنْ لَا آتِيَكَ ، وَلَا آتِيَ دِينَكَ وَجَمَعَ بَهْزٌ بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ , وَقَدْ جِئْتُ امْرَأً لَا أَعْقِلُ شَيْئًا ، إِلَّا مَا عَلَّمَنِي اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَرَسُولُهُ ، وَإِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ ، بِمَ بَعَثَكَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْنَا ؟ قَالَ : " بِالْإِسْلَامِ " قُلْتُ : وَمَا آيَاتُ الْإِسْلَامِ ؟ قَالَ : " أَنْ تَقُولَ : أَسْلَمْتُ وَجْهِيَ لِلَّهِ ، وَتَخَلَّيْتُ ، وَتُقِيمَ الصَّلَاةَ ، وَتُؤْتِيَ الزَّكَاةَ ، كُلُّ مُسْلِمٍ عَلَى مُسْلِمٍ مُحَرَّمٌ ، أَخَوَانِ نَصِيرَانِ ، لَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ مِنْ مُشْرِكٍ أَشْرَكَ بَعْدَ مَا أَسْلَمَ عَمَلًا ، وَتُفَارِقَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ إِلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، مَا لِي أُمْسِكُ بِحُجَزِكُمْ عَنِ النَّارِ , أَلَا إِنَّ رَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ دَاعِيَّ ، وَإِنَّهُ سَائِلِي : هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ عِبَادَهُ ؟ وَإِنِّي قَائِلٌ : رَبِّ إِنِّي قَدْ بَلَّغْتُهُمْ , فَلْيُبَلِّغْ الشَّاهِدُ مِنْكُمْ الْغَائِبَ ، ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ مَدْعُوُّونَ مُفَدَّمَةً أَفْوَاهُكُمْ بِالْفِدَامِ , ثُمَّ إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا يُبِينُ عَنْ أَحَدِكُمْ لَفَخِذُهُ وَكَفُّهُ " قُلْتُ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ، هَذَا دِينُنَا ؟ قَالَ : " هَذَا دِينُكُمْ ، وَأَيْنَمَا تُحْسِنْ يَكْفِكَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): I had sworn so many times (opening the fingers of his hands to count) that I would not come to you, but now I have come to you, so tell me, with what has Allah sent you? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah has sent me with Islam. He asked: What is Islam? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Say, "I have submitted myself before Allah and have turned to Him alone," and establish prayer and pay zakat, and remember! Every Muslim is honorable to another Muslim. These two things are supportive, and Allah does not accept the repentance of the one who, after accepting Islam or after leaving the polytheists and coming to the Muslims, falls back into polytheism. What is this matter that I am grabbing you by your waists and saving you from Hellfire? Remember! My Lord will inform me and ask me: "Did you convey My message to My servants?" And I will say: "O Lord! I conveyed Your message to them." Remember! Whoever among you is present should convey this to those who are absent. On the Day of Resurrection, when you will be presented, a seal will be set upon your mouths, and the first thing to speak will be your thigh. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Is this our religion? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This is your religion, and wherever you do a good deed, it will suffice for you.
