Hadith 32
32 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ أَنَّهُ خَطَبَ لِلنَّاسِ بِالْجَابِيَةِ فَقَالَ: قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَقِيَامِي فِيِكُمْ فَقَالَ: «أَكْرِمُوا أَصْحَابِي، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ يَظْهَرُ الْكَذِبُ حَتَّي يَشْهَدَ الرَّجُلُ وَلَمْ يُسْتَشْهَدْ، وَيَحْلِفُ وَلَمْ يُسْتَحْلَفْ، أَلَا لَا يَخْلُوَنَّ رَجُلٌ بِامْرَأَةٍ فَإِنَّ ثَالِثَهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ، أَلَا وَمَنْ سَرَّتْهُ بَحْبَحَةُ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمِ الْجَمَاعَةَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْفَذِّ وَهُوَ مِنَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ، أَلَا وَمَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَسَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ»
The son of Sulayman bin Yasar narrates from his father regarding Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him): He delivered a sermon to the people at the place of "Jabiyah" and said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood among us just as I am standing among you. He (peace be upon him) said: "Honor my companions! Then those who come after them, then those who come after them. Then falsehood will become widespread, to the extent that a man will give testimony though it was not requested from him, and he will swear an oath though it was not asked of him. Beware! Whenever a man is alone with a woman, the third among them is the devil. Beware! Whoever wishes to reside in Paradise should remain with the (Muslim) community, for the devil is with the solitary person and is farther from two people. Beware! Whoever is pleased by his good deed and saddened by his bad deed, he is a believer."
