1079 - أنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ، نا الْقَاضِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، نا مُوسَى بْنُ هَارُونَ، نا أَبُو عُمَرَ، حَفْصُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ الضَّرِيرُ، نا عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ، بَيَّاعُ الْخَمْرِ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ أَنْ تُؤْتَى رُخَصُهُ كَمَا يُحِبُّ أَنْ تُؤْتَى عَزَائِمُهُ، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَمَا عَزَائِمُهُ؟ قَالَ: «فَرَائِضُهُ»
Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah Almighty likes that His (given) concession be accepted just as He likes that His resolute commands be accepted." She says: I asked: O Messenger of Allah! Which are His resolute commands? He said: "His obligations."
Brief Explanation
Explanation:
It is understood from this that, in times of hardship and difficulty, availing oneself of the concessions (rukhsah) granted by Allah Ta'ala to believing servants is just as beloved to Allah Ta'ala as refraining from sinful and disobedient acts. By "concessions" are meant those allowances which, due to hardship, illness, or some other compulsion, render something forbidden permissible, or allow the omission of an obligation—for example, performing the full prayer (salah) is obligatory, but due to the hardship of travel, it has been shortened as a facilitation. Similarly, this applies to fasting and countless other matters. Allah Ta'ala says:
﴿يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ بِكُمُ الْيُسْرَ وَلَا يُرِيدُ بِكُمُ الْعُسْرَ﴾ (Al-Baqarah: 185) {اللہ تمہارے ساتھ آسانی چاہتا ہے اور وہ تمہیں مشقت میں نہیں ڈالنا چاہتا ۔ }
Sayyidah Aisha radi Allahu anha narrates that, "Whenever the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was given a choice between two matters, he would choose the easier of the two, as long as it was not sinful. If it was sinful, then he was the farthest of all people from it. And the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam never took revenge for his own sake; but if the limits of Allah were transgressed, then he would take retribution for the sake of Allah." [بخاري : 3560]
