بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْجُبْنِ وَالشَّجَاعَةِChapter on what is reported regarding cowardice and bravery
Hadith 3711
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ، عَنْ حَسَّانَ الْعَبْسِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: " الْجِبْتُ: السِّحْرُ، وَالطَّاغُوتُ: الشَّيْطَانُ، وَإِنَّ الشَّجَاعَةَ وَالْجُبْنَ غَرَائِزُ تَكُونُ فِي الرَّجُلِ، يُقَاتِلُ الشُّجَاعُ عَنْ مَنْ لَا يَعْرِفُ، وَيَفِرُّ الْجَبَانُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَإِنَّ كَرَمَ الرَّجُلِ دِينُهُ، وَحَسَبَهُ خُلُقُهُ، وَإِنْ كَانَ فَارِسِيًّا أَوْ نَبَطِيًّا "
Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "As long as there is magic and the rebellious devil, and bravery and cowardice are in a man's nature, the brave supports a stranger and the coward flees from his own father. A man's true honor is his religion and his lineage is his character, whether he is Persian or Nabatean."
