(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الْخَفَّافُ ، حَدَّثَنَا
سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ
قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ
مُسْلِمِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ
حُمْرَانَ بْنِ أَبَانَ ، أَنَّ
عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ كَلِمَةً لَا يَقُولُهَا عَبْدٌ حَقًّا مِنْ قَلْبِهِ ، إِلَّا حُرِّمَ عَلَى النَّارِ " فَقَالَ لَهُ
عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ : أَنَا أُحَدِّثُكَ مَا هِيَ ؟ هِيَ كَلِمَةُ الْإِخْلَاصِ الَّتِي أَعَزَّ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بِهَا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَصْحَابَهُ ، وَهِيَ كَلِمَةُ التَّقْوَى الَّتِي أَلَاصَ عَلَيْهَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَمَّهُ أَبَا طَالِبٍ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ : شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say once: "I know a word that if any servant says it, believing in it with his heart as truth, the fire of Hell will become forbidden for him." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "Shall I tell you what that word is?" That word is sincerity, which Allah made obligatory upon His Prophet and his companions (may Allah be pleased with them). This is the same word of piety that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeatedly presented before his uncle Abu Talib at the time of his death, that is, the testimony of the oneness of Allah.
