اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا أَخْبَرَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ هُوَ ابْنُ يَزِيدَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: "الطُّهُورُ شَطْرُ الْإِيمَانِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ يَمْلَأُ الْمِيزَانَ، وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ يَمْلَآَنِ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ، وَالصَّلَاةُ نُورٌ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ بُرْهَانٌ، وَالْوُضُوءُ ضِيَاءٌ، وَالْقُرْآنُ حُجَّةٌ لَكَ أَوْ عَلَيْكَ، وَكُلُّ النَّاسِ يَغْدُو: فَبَائِعٌ نَفْسَهُ، فَمُعْتِقُهَا، أَوْ مُوبِقُهَا".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Malik Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Purity is half of faith, and 'Alhamdulillah' fills the scale, and «(لا إله إلا الله والله أكبر)» both fill the space between the heavens and the earth, and prayer is light, charity is a proof, ablution is brightness, and the Qur'an is a proof for you or against you, and every person sets out in the morning either freeing himself or destroying himself."
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadiths 673 to 676)
That is, by doing good deeds a person frees himself from the punishment of Allah, or by doing evil deeds he destroys and ruins himself.
The meaning of «”حُجَّةٌ لَكَ أَوْ عَلَيْكَ“ » is that if you recite with understanding and act upon it, then it is a proof in your favor, and if you do not act upon it, then it is a proof against you.
Also, from this hadith, the virtue of «اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ ، لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَاللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ» is known.
Some scholars have said that after the recitation of the Qur'an, this phrase is the best remembrance (dhikr).
