اُردوEn
حدثنا عبد الله , حدثني أبى , فِي سَنَةِ ثَمَانٍ وَعِشْرِينَ وَمِائَتَيْنِ , حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ , حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ , عَنْ أَبِي ظَبْيَانَ , عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ , أَنَّهُ لَمَّا رَجَعَ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ , قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , رَأَيْتُ رِجَالًا بِالْيَمَنِ يَسْجُدُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضِهِمْ , أَفَلَا نَسْجُدُ لَكَ ؟ قَالَ : " لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا بَشَرًا يَسْجُدُ لِبَشَرٍ , لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا " . .
It is narrated from Hazrat Muadh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) that after returning from Yemen, he submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! I saw the Christians prostrating before their priests and religious leaders. It occurred to my heart that you are more deserving of such reverence, so should we not prostrate to you?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate before another, I would have commanded a woman to prostrate before her husband."
