Encouragement to enjoin good and forbid evil
Hadith 873
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ، نا هِشَامٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ هَانِئٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ حَفَزَهُ شَيْءٌ فَلَمْ يُكَلِّمْ أَحَدًا فَتَوَضَّأَ وَخَرَجَ فَسَمِعْتُ مِنَ الْحُجُرَاتِ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مُرُوا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَانْهَوْا عَنِ الْمُنْكِرِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَدْعُوا اللَّهَ فَلَا يُجُيبُكُمْ وَتَسْأَلُونَهُ فَلَا يُعْطِيكُمْ وَتَسْتَنْصِرُونَهُ فَلَا يَنْصُرُكُمْ ".
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me, and I recognized that something had prompted him to hurry. He did not speak to anyone, but performed ablution and went out. I heard him from among the rooms saying: "Allah says: O people! Enjoin good and forbid evil before a time comes when you pray to Allah and He does not accept your prayers, you ask Him and He does not grant you, and you seek His help and He does not help you."
