بَابُ مَا يُكْرَهُ مِنَ الْكَلَامِ بِغَيْرِ ذِكْرِ اللّٰهِ
What is Disliked in Speech Other Than the Remembrance of Allah
Hadith 1811
حَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : قَدِمَ رَجُلَانِ مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ فَخَطَبَا فَعَجِبَ النَّاسُ لِبَيَانِهِمَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ مِنَ الْبَيَانِ لَسِحْرًا " . أَوْ قَالَ : " إِنَّ بَعْضَ الْبَيَانِ لَسِحْرٌ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Zayd bin Aslam (may Allah be pleased with him) that two men came from the east, they delivered a sermon, and the people were captivated after listening to it. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Some speech has the effect of magic."
Hadith 1812
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ، أَنَّ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ، كَانَ يَقُولُ : لَا تُكْثِرُوا الْكَلَامَ بِغَيْرِ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ فَتَقْسُوَ قُلُوبُكُمْ، فَإِنَّ الْقَلْبَ الْقَاسِيَ بَعِيدٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ، وَلَكِنْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ وَلَا تَنْظُرُوا فِي ذُنُوبِ النَّاسِ كَأَنَّكُمْ أَرْبَاب، وَانْظُرُوا فِي ذُنُوبِكُمْ كَأَنَّكُمْ عَبِيدٌ، فَإِنَّمَا النَّاسُ مُبْتَلًى وَمُعَافًى فَارْحَمُوا أَهْلَ الْبَلَاءِ وَاحْمَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَى الْعَافِيَةِ
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, was informed that Jesus, peace be upon him, said: Do not engage in idle talk except in the remembrance of Allah, lest your hearts become hardened, and a hardened heart is far from Allah, though you do not realize it. And do not look at the sins of others as if you are the Lord, but look at your own sins, considering yourself a servant, because among people there are all kinds: some are sick and some are healthy. So have mercy on the sick and thank Allah for your own well-being.
Hadith 1813
وَحَدَّثَنِي وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِك أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَتْ تُرْسِلُ إِلَى بَعْضِ أَهْلِهَا بَعْدَ الْعَتَمَةِ، فَتَقُولُ : " أَلَا تُرِيحُونَ الْكُتَّابَ "
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) was informed that Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) used to send word to her household after the 'Isha prayer: "Will you still not give rest to the recording angels?"
