اُردوEn
126 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الصَّفَّارُ، أنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، ثنا عَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ مَنْصُورُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْخُزَاعِيُّ، ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ هُوَ ابْنُ بِلَالٍ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمُؤْمِنُ أَخُو الْمُؤْمِنِ»
Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that: "A believer is the brother of a believer."
Brief Explanation
Explanation:
In this blessed hadith, a believer has been called the brother of another believer, and this is also the command of Allah Ta'ala:
﴿إِنَّمَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌۭ﴾ (1) "Indeed, the believers are but brothers."
It is evident that all the believers in the world, whether white or black, Arab or non-Arab, master or slave, all believers are brothers to one another. Every believer should consider another believer as his brother, participate in his sorrows and pains, and, as far as possible, help his brother.
It is mentioned in the hadith: "Do not envy one another, do not deceive one another, do not harbor malice against one another, do not backbite one another, and none of you should sell over the sale of his brother. O servants of Allah! Be brothers to one another. A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim; he does not wrong him, does not humiliate him, nor does he look down upon him. Taqwa (piety) is here." And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam pointed to his chest three times and said, "Taqwa is here." It is sufficient evil for a man that he considers his Muslim brother insignificant. The blood, wealth, and honor of every Muslim are forbidden (haram) to another Muslim." (1)
