اُردوEn
451 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْمُعَدِّلُ، أبنا ابْنُ الْأَعْرَابِيِّ، أنا ابْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ثنا أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِيهِ النَّضْرُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُوقَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ذَلِكَ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ بِالْجَابِيَةِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَسْكُنَ بُحْبُوحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمِ الْجَمَاعَةَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ وَهُوَ مَعَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ»
Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said this statement at the place of Jabiyah in his sermon, narrating from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever wishes to reside in the center of Paradise should adhere to the congregation, for the devil is with the lone person and is farther from two."
Brief Explanation
Explanation:
In this hadith as well, the emphasis on adhering to the congregation (jama‘ah) has been stated. The meaning is that remaining attached to the congregation of Muslims is beneficial. The methodology and way of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jama‘ah is the path to success; by following it, one attains the best abode in Paradise. To deviate from it, to abandon the methodology of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jama‘ah, is sheer loss. Whoever leaves the path of the Salaf and adopts a self-invented way makes himself a plaything for Shaytan; Shaytan plays with him however he wishes. May Allah protect us.
