[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was in the Battle of Tabuk, and he would not leave until it became cool. He would combine between Dhuhr and Asr prayers and between Maghrib and Isha prayers.  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ لَا يَرُوحُ حَتَّى يُبْرِدَ يَجْمَعَ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ sent me to Yemen and commanded me to take a dinar or its equivalent from every haleem, and he ordered me to take forty elderly cows and thirty cows for sale, and he commanded me in regards to the tenth (of crops) that is watered by rainwater and not by irrigation, to take half of the tenth.  

بَعَثَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ مِنْ كُلِّ حَالِمٍ دِينَارًا أَوْ عِدْلَهُ مَعَافِرَ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً مُسِنَّةً وَمِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ بَقَرَةً تَبِيعًا حَوْلِيًّا وَأَمَرَنِي فِيمَا سَقَتِ السَّمَاءُ الْعُشْرَ وَمَا سُقِيَ بِالدَّوَالِي نِصْفَ الْعُشْرِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever prepares a warrior or supports his family with goodness, then surely he is with us."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ جَهَّزَ غَازِيًا أَوْ خَلَفَهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ بِخَيْرٍ فَإِنَّهُ مَعَنَا  

[Machine] I was sitting close to the Prophet ﷺ , and he said to me, "O Mu'adh, do you know what Allah's right upon His servants is?" I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "The right of Allah upon His servants is to worship Him alone and not associate anything with Him. Do you know what the right of the servants upon Allah is if they do that?" I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "He will admit them to Paradise."  

كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُعَاذُ أَتَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ اللهِ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ؟ قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُقَالَ أَنْ يَعْبُدُوهُ وَلَا يُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا أَتَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ الْعِبَادِ عَلَى اللهِ إِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ يُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] I used to ride behind the Prophet ﷺ on a red camel, and he said, "O Mu'adh!" I said, "Here I am at your service, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Do you know the right of Allah upon His servants?" I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said it three times, and I said it three times. Then he said, "Their right upon Him is that they worship Him alone and do not associate anything with Him. Do you know the right of the servants upon Allah if they do that?" I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said it three times, and I said it three times. Then he said, "Their right upon Him is that He forgives them and admits them to Paradise."  

كُنْتُ رِدْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى جَمَلٍ أَحْمَرَ فَقَالَ يَا مُعَاذُ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ قَالَ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ اللهِ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ؟ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا فَقُلْتُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ حَقُّهُ أَنْ يَعْبُدُوهُ وَلَا يُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ قَالَ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ الْعِبَادِ عَلَى اللهِ إِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا وَقُلْتُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثًا فَقَالَ حَقُّهُمْ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ وَأَنْ يُدْخِلَهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought a donkey that had a saddle on it, except that Hassan combined the two chains of narration in his hadith."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِحِمَارٍ قَدْ شُدَّ عَلَيْهِ بَرْذَعَةٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ حَسَنًا جَمَعَ الْإِسْنَادَيْنِ فِي حَدِيثِهِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Fighting is of two kinds: The one who seeks Allah's favour, obeys the leader, gives the property he values, treats his associates gently and avoids doing mischief, will have the reward for all the time whether he is asleep or awake; but the one who fights in a boasting spirit, for the sake of display and to gain a reputation, who disobeys the leader and does mischief in the earth will not return credit or without blame. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2515)  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ الْغَزْوُ غَزْوَانِ فَأَمَّا مَنْ ابْتَغَى وَجْهَ اللهِ وَأَطَاعَ الْإِمَامَ وَأَنْفَقَ الْكَرِيمَةَ وَيَاسَرَ الشَّرِيكَ وَاجْتَنَبَ الْفَسَادَ فَإِنَّ نَوْمَهُ وَنُبْهَهُ أَجْرٌ كُلُّهُ وَأَمَّا مَنْ غَزَا فَخْرًا وَرِيَاءً وَسُمْعَةً وَعَصَى الْإِمَامَ وَأَفْسَدَ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَرْجِعْ بِالْكَفَافِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about the Night of Decree, and he said, "It is in the last ten nights, or in the twenty-fifth, or in the twenty-third."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنْ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ فَقَالَ هِيَ فِي الْعَشْرِ الْأَوَاخِرِ أَوْ فِي الْخَامِسَةِ أَوْ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ  

[Machine] "From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ : Being cautious about destiny is useless, but supplication is beneficial for what has happened and what has not yet happened. So, O worshippers of Allah, rely on supplication."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَنْ يَنْفَعَ حَذَرٌ مِنْ قَدَرٍ وَلَكِنَّ الدُّعَاءَ يَنْفَعُ مِمَّا نَزَلَ وَمِمَّا لَمْ يَنْزِلْ فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالدُّعَاءِ عِبَادَ اللهِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: The greatest war, the conquest of Constantinople and the coming forth of the Dajjal (Antichrist) will take place within a period of seven months. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4295)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَلْحَمَةُ الْعُظْمَى وَفَتْحُ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةِ وَخُرُوجُ الدَّجَّالِ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَشْهُرٍ  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "When the circumcised parts touch one another, then washing becomes obligatory."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا جَاوَزَ الْخِتَانُ الْخِتَانَ فَقَدْ وَجَبَ الْغُسْلُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Jihad is the pillar of Islam and its highest peak."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ الْجِهَادُ عَمُودُ الْإِسْلَامِ وَذُرْوَةُ سَنَامِهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There is no Muslim who spends the night remembering Allah in a state of purity, then he wakes up in the middle of the night and asks Allah for good in this world and the Hereafter, except that Allah will grant him what he asked for." Hasan (good) in his Hadith. Thabit Al-Bunani came to us here and narrated this Hadith from Mu'adh. Abu Salamah said, "I think he meant Abu Dhabiyah."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَبِيتُ عَلَى ذِكْرِ اللهِ طَاهِرًا فَيَتَعَارَّ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَيَسْأَلُ اللهَ خَيْرًا مِنْ أَمْرِ الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ قَالَ حَسَنٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ ثَابِتٌ الْبُنَانِيُّ فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا هَاهُنَا فَحَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عَنْ مُعَاذٍ قَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ أَظُنُّهُ عَنَى أَبَا ظَبْيَةَ  

[Machine] Narrated to us, so he mentioned a similar hadith.  

فَحَدَّثَنَا فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ, he said: "Whoever fights in the cause of Allah, then above the value of a she-camel, Paradise is obligated for him. And above the value of a she-camel is as much milk as she produces for whoever milks her."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ قَاتَلَ فِيسَبِيلِ اللهِ فُوَاقَ نَاقَةٍ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَفُوَاقُ نَاقَةٍ قَدْرُ مَا تُدِرُّ لَبَنَهَا لِمَنْ حَلَبَهَا  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said that the pinnacle of the spear of Islam is jihad in the cause of Allah."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ ذُرْوَةُ سَنَامِ الْإِسْلَامِ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ  

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent him to Yemen, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went with him and Mu'adh was riding while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ walked underneath his mount. When they finished, he said, "O Mu'adh, perhaps you will not see me after this year, but perhaps you will pass by my mosque and my grave." Mu'adh cried due to the thought of parting from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then he turned and faced the direction of Madinah and said, "Indeed, those who fear Allah and are righteous are the closest to me, no matter where they may be."  

لَمَّا بَعَثَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ خَرَجَ مَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُوصِيهِ وَمُعَاذٌ رَاكِبٌ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَمْشِي تَحْتَ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ يَا مُعَاذُ إِنَّكَ عَسَى أَنْ لَا تَلْقَانِي بَعْدَ عَامِي هَذَا وَلَعَلَّكَ أنَ تَمُرَّ بِمَسْجِدِي هَذَا وَقَبْرِي فَبَكَى مُعَاذٌ جَشَعًا لِفِرَاقِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ فَأَقْبَلَ بِوَجْهِهِ نَحْوَ الْمَدِينَةِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِي الْمُتَّقُونَ مَنْ كَانُوا وَحَيْثُ كَانُوا  

[Machine] He used to say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to Yemen, and he said, "Perhaps you will pass by my grave and my mosque. I have sent you to a people whose hearts are gentle, they fight for the truth twice. Fight alongside those who obey you and those who disobey you until the woman surpasses her husband, the child surpasses his father, and the brother surpasses his brother. Then, settle between the two sacred places - Sakun and Sakkasik."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَقَالَ لَعَلَّكَ أَنْ تَمُرَّ بِقَبْرِي وَمَسْجِدِي وَقَدْ بَعَثْتُكَ إِلَى قَوْمٍ رَقِيقَةٍ قُلُوبُهُمْ يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَقَاتِلْ بِمَنْ أَطَاعَكَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ عَصَاكَ ثُمَّ يَعُودُ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ حَتَّى تُبَادِرَ الْمَرْأَةُ زَوْجَهَا وَالْوَلَدُ وَالِدَهُ وَالْأَخُ أَخَاهُ فَانْزِلْ بَيْنَ الْحَيَّيْنِ السَّكُونَ وَالسَّكَاسِكَ  

[Machine] "When Mu'adh was sent by the Prophet (PBUH), he accompanied him. Mu'adh was riding while the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) was walking under his mount. When they finished, the Prophet (PBUH) said, "O Mu'adh, it is possible that you will not see me after this year, and perhaps you will pass by my mosque and my grave." Mu'adh ibn Jabal then burst into tears out of eagerness to part with the Messenger of Allah (PBUH). The Prophet (PBUH) said, "Do not cry, O Mu'adh, for crying is from Satan."  

أَنَّ مُعَاذًا لَمَّا بَعَثَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَرَجَ مَعَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُوصِيهِوَمُعَاذٌ رَاكِبٌ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَمْشِي تَحْتَ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ يَا مُعَاذُ إِنَّكَ عَسَى أَنْ لَا تَلْقَانِي بَعْدَ عَامِي هَذَا وَلَعَلَّكَ أَنْ تَمُرَّ بِمَسْجِدِي وَقَبْرِي فَبَكَى مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ جَشَعًا لِفِرَاقِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا تَبْكِ يَا مُعَاذُ لَلْبُكَاءُ أَوْ إِنَّ الْبُكَاءَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ  

[Machine] "Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ said, 'There will be people in the end times who are brothers of the publicity and enemies of the virtue.' It was asked, 'O Messenger of Allah, how will that be?' He said, 'That will be due to the preference of some of them over others and the fear of some of them from others.'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ يَكُونُ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ أَقْوَامٌ إِخْوَانُ الْعَلَانِيَةِ أَعْدَاءُ السَّرِيرَةِ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَكَيْفَ يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ ذَلِكَ بِرَغْبَةِ بَعْضِهِمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ وَرَهْبَةِ بَعْضِهِمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a man who was praying and saying in his supplication, "O Allah, I ask you for patience." The Prophet said, "You have asked for affliction, so ask Allah for well-being." He then passed by a man who was saying, "O Allah, I ask you for the completion of your blessings." The Prophet asked him, "Do you know what is the completion of blessings?" The man replied, "O Messenger of Allah, it is a supplication through which I hope for goodness." The Prophet said, "The completion of blessings is salvation from the Fire and entry into Paradise." He then passed by a man who was saying, "O You of Majesty and Generosity." The Prophet said to him, "Your supplication has been answered, so ask."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَى عَلَى رَجُلٍ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الصَّبْرَ قَالَ سَأَلْتَ الْبَلَاءَ فَسَلِ اللهَ الْعَافِيَةَ قَالَ وَأَتَى عَلَى رَجُلٍ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ تَمَامَ نِعْمَتِكَ فَقَالَ ابْنَ آدَمَ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا تَمَامُ النِّعْمَةِ؟ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ دَعْوَةٌ دَعَوْتُ بِهَا أَرْجُو بِهَا الْخَيْرَ قَالَ فَإِنَّ تَمَامَ النِّعْمَةِ فَوْزٌ مِنَ النَّارِ وَدُخُولُ الْجَنَّةِ وَأَتَى عَلَى رَجُلٍ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ يَا ذَا الْجِلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ فَقَالَ قَدْ اسْتُجِيبَ لَكَ فَسَلْ  

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Islam increases and does not diminish. He, therefore, appointed a Muslim heir (of a non-Muslim). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2912)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ أَوْ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْإِسْلَامُ يَزِيدُ وَلَا يَنْقُصُ فَوَرَّثَهُ  

[Machine] Narrated from the wonders of the Prophet's speech ﷺ he said, "I used to be behind the Prophet ﷺ on a donkey. He said, 'O Mu'adh!' So I said, 'Labbayk, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'Do you know the right of Allah upon His servants?' I said, 'Allah and His Messenger know best.' He said, 'The right of Allah upon His servants is to worship Him alone and not associate anything with Him. Do you know what the right of the servants upon Allah is if they do that?' I said, 'Allah and His Messenger know best.' He said, 'The right of the servants upon Allah is that He does not punish them.'  

حَدِّثْنَا مِنْ غَرَائِبِ حَدِيثِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَقَالَ كُنْتُ رِدْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى حِمَارٍ فَقَالَ يَا مُعَاذُ فَقُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ أَتَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ اللهِ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ فَإِنَّ حَقَّ اللهِ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ أَنْ يَعْبُدُوهُ وَلَا يُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا فَهَلْ تَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ الْعِبَادِ عَلَى اللهِ إِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ فَإِنَّ حَقَّ الْعِبَادِ عَلَى اللهِ إِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ أَنْ لَا يُعَذِّبَهُمْ  

[Machine] He said, "O Messenger of Allah, advise me." He said, "Fear Allah wherever you are, and follow up a bad deed with a good deed which will wipe it out." He said, "Advise me more." He said, "Treat people with good manners."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَوْصِنِي قَالَ اتَّقِ اللهَ حَيْثُمَا كُنْتَ أَوْ أَيْنَمَا كُنْتَ قَالَ زِدْنِي قَالَ أَتْبِعِ السَّيِّئَةَ الْحَسَنَةَ تَمْحُهَا قَالَ زِدْنِي قَالَ خَالِقِ النَّاسَ بِخُلُقٍ حَسَنٍ  

[Machine] We were informed by someone who witnessed Muadh at the time of his death. He said, "Remove the veil of the dome from me, so that I may speak to you. I heard something from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and I want to tell you about it. There is nothing preventing me from telling you about it, except that you should rely on what I heard. He said, 'Whoever witnesses that there is no god but Allah sincerely from his heart or with certainty from his heart, he will not enter the Fire or will enter Paradise.' He also said, 'He will enter Paradise and the Fire will not touch him.'"  

أَخْبَرَنَا مَنْ شَهِدَ مُعَاذًا حِينَ حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ يَقُولُ اكْشِفُوا عَنِّي سَجْفَ الْقُبَّةِ أُحَدِّثُكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أُحَدِّثَكُمُوهُ إِلَّا أَنْ تَتَّكِلُوا سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ مَنْ شَهِدَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ مُخْلِصًا مِنْ قَلْبِهِ أَوْ يَقِينًا مِنْ قَلْبِهِ لَمْ يَدْخُلِ النَّارَأَوْ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ وَلَمْ تَمَسَّهُ النَّارُ  

"How will you judge?" He said: "I will judge according to what is in Allah's Book." He said: "If it is not in Allah's Book ?" He said: "Then with the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." He said: "If it is not in the Sunnah of Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He said: "I will give in my view." He said: "All praise is due to Allah, the One Who made the messenger of the Messenger of Allah suitable." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1327)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَمَّا بَعَثَهُ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَقَالَ كَيْفَ تَقْضِي؟ قَالَ أَقْضِي بِكِتَابِ اللهِ قَالَ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ قَالَ فَبِسُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي سُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَجْتَهِدُ رَأْيِي قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي وَفَّقَ رَسُولَ رَسُولِ اللهِ  

It was narrated from Mu’adh bin Jabal that the Prophet ﷺ combined the Zuhr and ‘Asr, and the Maghrib and ‘Isha’ when traveling during the campaign of Tabuk. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1070)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ جَمَعَ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said, 'May your mother lose you! Do people fall on their faces in Hell except due to the harvest of their tongues?'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ وَهَلْ يَكُبُّ النَّاسَ عَلَى مَنَاخِرِهِمْ فِي جَهَنَّمَ إِلَّا حَصَائِدُ أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ؟ ‍  

[Machine] "I came to the mosque of the people of Damascus, and there was a circle in which were elderly companions of the Prophet ﷺ and there were young men among them with kohl-lined eyes, with shining blackness. Whenever they differed in something, they would return it to a young lad. I said to a companion sitting next to me, 'Who is this?' He said, 'This is Muadh ibn Jabal.' I came from the evening, but they did not attend. I came again the next morning, but they did not come. I was happy, and suddenly, I saw the young man praying towards a canister. I prayed behind him, and then turned towards him. He greeted, and I approached him and said, 'Indeed, I love you for the sake of Allah.' He said, 'Draw me closer.' He asked, 'How did you say it?' I said, 'Indeed, I love you for the sake of Allah.' He said, 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Those who love each other for the sake of Allah are upon pulpits of light on the Day when there is no shade except His shade.' I left until I met Ubada ibn Samit, and I mentioned to him the hadith of Muadh ibn Jabal. He said, 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ narrate from his Lord, 'My love is due to those who love each other for my sake, and My love is due to those who spend on each other for My sake, and My love is due to those who visit each other for My sake. And those who love each other for the sake of Allah are upon pulpits of light on the Day when there is no shade except His shade.'"  

أَتَيْتُ مَسْجِدَ أَهْلِ دِمَشْقَ فَإِذَا حَلْقَةٌ فِيهَا كُهُولٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَإِذَا شَابٌّ فِيهِمْ أَكْحَلُالْعَيْنِ بَرَّاقُ الثَّنَايَا كُلَّمَا اخْتَلَفُوا فِي شَيْءٍ رَدُّوهُ إِلَى الْفَتَى فَتًى شَابٌّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِجَلِيسٍ لِي مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالَ هَذَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ قَالَ فَجِئْتُ مِنَ الْعَشِيِّ فَلَمْ يَحْضُرُوا قَالَ فَغَدَوْتُ مِنَ الْغَدِ قَالَ فَلَمْ يَجِيئُوا فَرُحْتُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِالشَّابِّ يُصَلِّي إِلَى سَارِيَةٍ فَرَكَعْتُ ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلْتُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَسَلَّمَ فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ فِي اللهِ قَالَ فَمَدَّنِي إِلَيْهِ قَالَ كَيْفَ قُلْتَ؟ قُلْتُ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ فِي اللهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْمُتَحَابُّونَ فِي اللهِ عَلَى مَنَابِرَ مِنْ نُورٍ فِي ظِلِّ الْعَرْشِ يَوْمَ لَا ظِلَّ إِلَّا ظِلُّهُ قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ حَتَّى لَقِيتُ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ الصَّامِتِ فَذَكَرْتُ لَهُ حَدِيثَ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَحْكِي عَنْ رَبِّهِ يَقُولُ حَقَّتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَحَابِّينَ فِيَّ وَحَقَّتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَبَاذِلِينَ فِيَّ وَحَقَّتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَزَاوِرِينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَحَابُّونَ فِي اللهِ عَلَى مَنَابِرَ مِنْ نُورٍ فِي ظِلِّ الْعَرْشِ يَوْمَ لَا ظِلَّ إِلَّا ظِلُّهُ  

[Machine] I entered the mosque of Homs and found a gathering of thirty-two men from the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and among them was a young boy with dark eyes, and he mentioned the narration.  

دَخَلْتُ مَسْجِدَ حِمْصَ فَإِذَا حَلْقَةٌ فِيهَا اثْنَانِ وَثَلَاثُونَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَفِيهِمْ فَتًى شَابٌّ أَكْحَلُ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] We trailed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the Isha prayer and he remained in seclusion until we thought he would not come out. The saying among us was that he had prayed and would not come out. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out, so we said, "O Messenger of Allah, we thought that you would not come out, and the one among us who said so claimed that you had prayed and would not come out." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Adhere to this prayer, for it has been given superiority over the prayers of all the nations that were before you."  

رَقَبْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ فَاحْتَبَسَ حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَنْ يَخْرُجَ وَالْقَائِلُ مِنَّا يَقُولُ قَدْ صَلَّى وَلَنْ يَخْرُجَ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ظَنَنَّا أَنَّكَ لَنْ تَخْرُجَ وَالْقَائِلُ مِنَّا يَقُولُ قَدْ صَلَّى وَلَنْ يَخْرُجَ فَقَالَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَعْتِمُوا بِهَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ؛ فَقَدْ فُضِّلْتُمْ بِهَا عَلَى سَائِرِ الْأُمَمِ وَلَمْ تُصَلِّهَا أُمَّةٌ قَبْلَكُمْ  

[Machine] I heard Mu'adh saying, "We served the Prophet ﷺ," which means we waited for him, and he mentioned his significance with us.  

سَمِعْتُ مُعَاذًا يَقُولُ إِنَّا رَقَبْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَعْنِي انْتَظَرْنَاهُ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ  

[Machine] We accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from the battle of Tabuk, and when I saw him alone, I said, "O Messenger of Allah, inform me of an action that will admit me into Paradise." He said, "You have asked about something great, yet it is easy upon those whom Allah makes it easy. Establish the obligatory prayers, pay the obligatory zakah, and have sincerity towards Allah - do not associate anything with Him. Shall I not guide you to the head of the matter, its pillar, and its pinnacle?" I said, "Certainly, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "The head of the matter is Islam, the one who submits, his religion is safe. As for its pillar, it is the prayer, and as for its pinnacle, it is jihad in the way of Allah." He asked, "Shall I not inform you of the gates of goodness?" I said, "Certainly, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Fasting is a shield, charity extinguishes sins, and the prayer of a person in the depths of the night erases sins." Then, he recited the verse, "Their sides forsake their beds, they call upon their Lord in fear and hope, and they spend from what We have provided for them" (Surah As-Sajdah, 32:16). He asked, "Shall I not inform you of what controls all of that?" I said, "Certainly, O Messenger of Allah." He pointed with his hand towards his tongue and said, "Restrain this." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, will we be held accountable for what we say?" He said, "May your mother lose you, O Mu'adh! Are people thrown into the Hellfire upon their faces except due to the harvest of their tongues?" Shu'bah said, "The judge conveyed this to me and narrated it from Maymun ibn Abi Shabib, and the judge said, 'I heard it from him forty years ago.'"  

أَقْبَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُ خَلِيًّا قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ بَخٍ لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَ عَنْ عَظِيمٍ وَهُوَ يَسِيرٌ عَلَى مَنْ يَسَّرَهُ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ تُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَتُؤَدِّي الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ وَتَلْقَى اللهَ لَا تُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا أَوَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْأَمْرِ وَعَمُودِهِ وَذُرْوَةِ سَنَامِهِ؟ أَمَّا رَأْسُ الْأَمْرِ فَالْإِسْلَامُ فَمَنْ أَسْلَمَ سَلِمَ وَأَمَّا عَمُودُهُ فَالصَّلَاةُ وَأَمَّا ذُرْوَةُ سَنَامِهِ فَالْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَوَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ الْخَيْرِ؟ الصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ وَالصَّدَقَةُ وَقِيَامُ الْعَبْدِ فِي جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ يُكَفِّرُ الْخَطَايَا وَتَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنْفِقُونَ} [السجدة 16] أَوَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى أَمْلَكِ ذَلِكَ لَكَ كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ فَأَقْبَلَ نَفَرٌ قَالَ فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ يَشْغَلُوا عَنِّي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ أَوْ كَلِمَةً نَحْوَهَا قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَوْلُكَ أَوَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى أَمْلَكِ ذَلِكَ لَكَ كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ فَأَشَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى لِسَانِهِ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَإِنَّا لَنُؤَاخَذُ بِمَا نَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ؟ قَالَ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ مُعَاذُ وَهَلْ يَكُبُّ النَّاسَ عَلَى مَنَاخِرِهِمْ إِلَّا حَصَائِدُ أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ؟ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ قَالَ لِيَ الْحَكَمُ وحَدَّثَنِي بِهِ مَيْمُونُ بْنُ أَبِي شَبِيبٍ وقَالَ الْحَكَمُ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْهُ مُنْذُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ that he said: "He who has three (children) is obligated." Mu'adh said: "And he who has two [children], O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "And he who has two (children)."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَوْجَبَ ذُو الثَّلَاثَةِ فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ وَذُو الِاثْنَيْنِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ وَذُو الِاثْنَيْنِ  

God willing, you would reach by tomorrow the fountain of Tabuk and you should not come to that until it is dawn, and he who amongst you happens to go there should not touch its water until I come. We came to that and two persons (amongst) us reached that fountain ahead of us. It was a thin flow of water like the shoelace. Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked them whether they had touched the water. They said: Yes. Allah's Apostle ﷺ scolded them, and he said to them what he had to say by the will of God. The people then took water of the fountain in their palms until it became somewhat significant and Messenger of Allah ﷺ washed his hands and his face too in it, and then, took it again in that (fountain) and there gushed forth abundant water from that fountain, until all the people drank to their fill. He then said: Mu'adh, it is likely that if you live long that you see what is here filled with gardens. (Using translation from Muslim 706c)   

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُمْ خَرَجُوا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَامَ تَبُوكَ فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ قَالَ وَأَخَّرَ الصَّلَاةَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ وَالْعَصْرَ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ دَخَلَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ وَالْعِشَاءَ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَأْتُونَ غَدًا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ عَيْنَ تَبُوكَ وَإِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَأْتُوهَا حَتَّى يَضْحَى النَّهَارُ فَمَنْ جَاءَهَا فَلَا يَمَسَّ مِنْ مَائِهَا شَيْئًا حَتَّى آتِيَ فَجِئْنَا وَقَدْ سَبَقَنَا إِلَيْهَا رَجُلَانِ وَالْعَيْنُ مِثْلُ الشِّرَاكِ تَبِضُّ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَسَأَلَهُمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ هَلْ مَسِسْتُمَا مِنْ مَائِهَا شَيْئًا؟ فَقَالَا نَعَمْ فَسَبَّهُمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ لَهُمَا مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ ثُمَّ غَرَفُوا بِأَيْدِيهِمْ مِنَ الْعَيْنِ قَلِيلًا قَلِيلًا حَتَّى اجْتَمَعَ فِي شَيْءٍ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِيهِ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَعَادَهُ فِيهَا فَجَرَتِ الْعَيْنُ بِمَاءٍ كَثِيرٍ فَاسْتَقَى النَّاسُ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُوشِكُ يَا مُعَاذُ إِنْ طَالَتْ بِكَ حَيَاةٌ أَنْ تَرَى مَا هَاهُنَا قَدْ مَلَأَ جِنَانًا  

[Machine] And he said, "Bring me a piece of water."  

وَقَالَ تَبِضُّ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'If you wish, I can inform you about the first thing Allah will say to the believers on the Day of Resurrection, and the first thing they will say to Him.' We said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'Allah will ask the believers, "Did you love to meet Me?" They will say, "Yes, O our Lord." Allah will then ask them, "Why?" They will say, "We hoped for Your forgiveness and mercy." Allah will say, "Indeed, My forgiveness and mercy are granted to you."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ أَنْبَأْتُكُمْ مَا أَوَّلُ مَا يَقُولُ اللهُ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَمَا أَوَّلُ مَا يَقُولُونَ لَهُ؟ قُلْنَا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ يَقُولُ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ هَلْ أَحْبَبْتُمْ لِقَائِي؟ فَيَقُولُونَ نَعَمْ يَا رَبَّنَا فَيَقُولُ لِمَ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ رَجَوْنَا عَفْوَكَ وَمَغْفِرَتَكَ فَيَقُولُ قَدْ وَجَبَتْ لَكُمْ مَغْفِرَتِي  

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ that one day he rode on a donkey named "Ya'foor", his reins were made of a type of flax. Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "Ride, O Mu'adh!" So I said, "Go ahead, O Messenger of Allah." Then he rode and the donkey stumbled with us. The Prophet ﷺ started laughing, and while I was feeling sorry for myself, he did it again for a second time, and then a third time. Then he rode and the donkey walked with us. He put his hand behind and struck my back with a whip or stick he had. Then he said, "O Mu'adh, do you know the right of Allah upon His servants?" So I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "The right of Allah upon His servants is that they should worship Him and not associate anything with Him." He said, "Then he walked as Allah willed, and then put his hand again and struck my back. He said, "O Mu'adh, son of Mu'adh's mother, do you know the right of the servants upon Allah if they do that?" I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "The right of the servants upon Allah if they do that is that He will admit them to Paradise."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ رَكِبَ يَوْمًا عَلَى حِمَارٍ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ يَعْفُورٌ رَسَنُهُ مِنْ لِيفٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ارْكَبْ يَا مُعَاذُ فَقُلْتُ سِرْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ ارْكَبْ فَرَدَفْتُهُ فَصُرِعَ الْحِمَارُ بِنَا فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَضْحَكُ وَقُمْتُ أَذْكُرُ مِنْ نَفْسِي أَسَفًا ثُمَّ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ الثَّانِيَةَ ثُمَّ الثَّالِثَةَ فَرَكِبَ وَسَارَ بِنَا الْحِمَارُ فَأَخْلَفَ يَدَهُ فَضَرَبَ ظَهْرِي بِسَوْطٍ مَعَهُ أَوْ عَصًا ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مُعَاذُ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ اللهِ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ؟ فَقُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ فَإِنَّ حَقَّ اللهِ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ أَنْ يَعْبُدُوهُ وَلَا يُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا قَالَ ثُمَّ سَارَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ ثُمَّ أَخْلَفَ يَدَهُ فَضَرَبَ ظَهْرِي فَقَالَ يَا مُعَاذُ يَا ابْنَ أُمِّ مُعَاذٍ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا حَقُّ الْعِبَادِ عَلَى اللهِ إِذَا هُمْ فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ؟ قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ فَإِنَّ حَقَّ الْعِبَادِ عَلَى اللهِ إِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ أَنْ يُدْخِلَهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ said to Mu'adh, 'It is better for you that Allah guides a person through you, than for you to have red camels [a renowned symbol of wealth].' "  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ يَا مُعَاذُ أَنْ يَهْدِيَ اللهُ عَلَى يَدَيْكَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised me with ten words. He said: Do not associate anything with Allah, even if you are killed or burned. Do not disobey your parents, even if they order you to leave your family and wealth. Do not neglect the obligatory prayers intentionally, for whoever leaves the obligatory prayer intentionally, Allah's protection is lifted from him. Do not drink alcohol, as it is the root of every evil. Beware of committing sins, for sins bring about Allah's anger. Beware of fleeing from the battlefield, even if people are killed and you are among them, remain steadfast. Provide for your family based on your ability and do not raise your stick toward them as a sign of discipline. Honor them in the sight of Allah.  

أَوْصَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِعَشْرِ كَلِمَاتٍ قَالَ لَا تُشْرِكْ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا وَإِنْ قُتِلْتَ وَحُرِّقْتَ وَلَا تَعُقَّنَّ وَالِدَيْكَ وَإِنْ أَمَرَاكَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ وَمَالِكَ وَلَا تَتْرُكَنَّ صَلَاةً مَكْتُوبَةً مُتَعَمِّدًا؛ فَإِنَّ مَنْ تَرَكَ صَلَاةً مَكْتُوبَةً مُتَعَمِّدًا فَقَدْ بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ ذِمَّةُ اللهِ وَلَا تَشْرَبَنَّ خَمْرًا؛ فَإِنَّهُ رَأْسُ كُلِّ فَاحِشَةٍ وَإِيَّاكَ وَالْمَعْصِيَةَ؛فَإِنَّ بِالْمَعْصِيَةِ حَلَّ سَخَطُ اللهِ ﷻ وَإِيَّاكَ وَالْفِرَارَ مِنَ الزَّحْفِ وَإِنْ هَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَإِذَا أَصَابَ النَّاسَ مُوتَانٌ وَأَنْتَ فِيهِمْ فَاثْبُتْ وَأَنْفِقْ عَلَى عِيَالِكَ مِنْ طَوْلِكَ وَلَا تَرْفَعْ عَنْهُمْ عَصَاكَ أَدَبًا وَأَخِفْهُمْ فِي اللهِ  

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever is in charge of any matter for the people and seeks to hide from those who are weak or are in need, Allah will distant Himself from him on the Day of Resurrection."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ وَلِيَ مِنْ أَمْرِ النَّاسِ شَيْئًا فَاحْتَجَبَ عَنْ أُولِي الضَّعَفَةِ وَالْحَاجَةِ احْتَجَبَ اللهُ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ۔»  

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited this verse: 'The companions of the right (hand)' (Al-Waqi'ah 27) and 'The companions of the left (hand)' (Al-Waqi'ah 41). Then he clenched his hands and said, 'These are the people of Paradise, and I do not care about it, and these are the people of the Hellfire, and I do not care about it.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {أَصْحَابُ الْيَمِينِ} [الواقعة 27] {وَأَصْحَابُ الشِّمَالِ} [الواقعة 41] فَقَبَضَ بِيَدَيْهِ قَبْضَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ هَذِهِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَلَا أُبَالِي وَهَذِهِ فِي النَّارِ وَلَا أُبَالِي  

[Machine] Mu'adh came to them from Yemen, and a woman from Khawlān met him with her twelve children. She left their father at home, the youngest of whom had been breastfeeding, and she greeted Mu'adh and two men from her sons were holding onto her garment. She asked him, "Who sent you, O man?" Mu'adh replied, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me." The woman said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent you and you are the messenger of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? Why don't you inform me, O messenger of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" So Mu'adh said, "Ask me whatever you wish." She asked, "Tell me about the rights of a man over his wife?" Mu'adh said, "Fear Allah as much as you can, listen and obey." She said, "By Allah, I vowed that you would inform me about the rights of a man over his wife." Mu'adh said, "Even if you were to hear and obey and fear Allah?" She replied, "Yes, but tell me about the rights of a man over his wife. For I have left my father, an elderly man, at home." Mu'adh said, "By the One in whose hand is the soul of Mu'adh, if you were to return and find him with leprosy, with his flesh and the tips of his fingers oozing pus and blood, you would still lick them to fulfill his rights upon you."  

أَنَّ مُعَاذًا قَدِمَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْيَمَنِ فَلَقِيَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ خَوْلَانَ مَعَهَا بَنُونَ لَهَا اثْنَا عَشَرَ فَتَرَكَتْ أَبَاهُمْ فِي بَيْتِهَا أَصْغَرُهُمُ الَّذِي قَدِ اجْتَمَعَتْ لِحْيَتُهُ فَقَامَتْ فَسَلَّمَتْ عَلَى مُعَاذٍ وَرَجُلَانِ مِنْ بَنِيهَا يُمْسِكَانِ بِضَبْعَيْهَا فَقَالَتْ مَنْ أَرْسَلَكَ أَيُّهَا الرَّجُلُ؟ قَالَ لَهَا مُعَاذٌ أَرْسَلَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ أَرْسَلَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺوَأَنْتَ رَسُولُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ‍؟ أَفَلَا تُخْبِرُنِي يَا رَسُولَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ لَهَا مُعَاذٌ سَلِينِي عَمَّا شِئْتِ قَالَتْ حَدِّثْنِي مَا حَقُّ الْمَرْءِ عَلَى زَوْجَتِهِ؟ قَالَ لَهَا مُعَاذٌ تَتَّقِي اللهَ مَا اسْتَطَاعَتْ وَتَسْمَعُ وَتُطِيعُ قَالَتْ أَقْسَمْتُ بِاللهِ عَلَيْكَ لَتُحَدِّثَنِّي مَا حَقُّ الرَّجُلِ عَلَى زَوْجَتِهِ؟ قَالَ لَهَا مُعَاذٌ أَوَ مَا رَضِيتِ أَنْ تَسْمَعِي وَتُطِيعِي وَتَتَّقِي اللهَ؟ قَالَتْ بَلَى وَلَكِنْ حَدِّثْنِي مَا حَقُّ الْمَرْءِ عَلَى زَوْجَتِهِ؛ فَإِنِّي تَرَكْتُ أَبَا هَؤُلَاءِ شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا فِي الْبَيْتِ؟ فَقَالَ لَهَا مُعَاذٌ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُعَاذٍ فِي يَدِهِ لَوْ أَنَّكِ تَرْجِعِينَ إِذَا رَجَعْتِ إِلَيْهِ فَوَجَدْتِ الْجُذَامَ قَدْ خَرَقَ لَحْمَهُ وَخَرَقَ مَنْخِرَيْهِ فَوَجَدْتِ مَنْخِرَيْهِ يَسِيلَانِ قَيْحًا وَدَمًا ثُمَّ أَلْقَمْتِيهِمَا فَاكِ لِكَيْ مَا تَبْلُغِي حَقَّهُ مَا بَلَغْتِ ذَلِكَ أَبَدًا  

the Prophet said: “Should I not inform you of the best of your deed, and the purest of them with your Master, and the highest of them in your ranks, and what is better for you than spending gold and silver, and better for you than meeting your enemy and striking their necks, and they strike your necks?” They said: “Of course.” He said, “The remembrance of Allah [Most High].” [Then] Mu’adh bin Jabal [may Allah be pleased with him] said: “There is nothing that brings more salvation from the punishment of Allah than the remembrance of Allah.” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3377)   

أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا عَمِلَ آدَمِيٌّ عَمَلًا قَطُّ أَنْجَى لَهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ اللهِ مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللهِ وقَالَ مُعَاذٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ وَأَزْكَاهَا عِنْدَ مَلِيكِكُمْ وَأَرْفَعِهَا فِي دَرَجَاتِكُمْ؟ وَخَيْرٍ لَكُمْ مِنْ تَعَاطِي الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَمِنْ أَنْ تَلْقَوْا عَدُوَّكُمْ غَدًا فَتَضْرِبُوا أَعْنَاقَهُمْ وَيَضْرِبُوا أَعْنَاقَكُمْ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ ذِكْرُ اللهِ  

[Machine] I entered the mosque of Hims and found around thirty young men from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ. Among them was a young man with dark eyes and radiant complexion, silent and serene. Whenever the people needed something, they would come to him and ask him. I asked my neighbor, "Who is this?" He replied, "This is Mu'adh ibn Jabal." I developed a love for him in my heart and I stayed with them until they dispersed. Then I migrated to the mosque and there I found Mu'adh ibn Jabal standing and praying near a column. He remained silent and did not speak to me. I prayed and then sat down, wrapping myself in my cloak. He sat there silently without speaking to me, and I also remained silent. Then I said, "By Allah, I love you." He asked, "For what reason do you love me?" I replied, "For the sake of Allah the Most Blessed and Exalted." He held my collar and pulled me towards him gently, then he said, "Rejoice! If you are truthful, then I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Those who love each other for my sake will have pulpits of light, and they will envy the prophets and martyrs.'" He then left, and I met Ubada ibn As-Samit and said to him, "O Abu Al-Walid, I inform you of what Mu'adh ibn Jabal said about those who love each other for the sake of Allah." Ubada replied, "Let me tell you what the Prophet ﷺ said about this. He said, 'By Him in Whose Hand is my soul, your love for the sake of Allah is confirmed. Your love for those you meet and accompany is confirmed. And your love for those you spend money on and support is confirmed. And your love for those you maintain ties with is confirmed.'"  

دَخَلْتُ مَسْجِدَ حِمْصَ فَإِذَا فِيهِ نَحْوٌ مِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ كَهْلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَإِذَا فِيهِمْ شَابٌّ أَكْحَلُ الْعَيْنَيْنِ بَرَّاقُ الثَّنَايَا سَاكِتٌ فَإِذَا امْتَرَى الْقَوْمُ فِي شَيْءٍ أَقْبَلُوا عَلَيْهِ فَسَأَلُوهُ فَقُلْتُ لِجَلِيسٍ لِي مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالَ هَذَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ فَوَقَعَ لَهُ فِي نَفْسِي حُبٌّ فَكُنْتُ مَعَهُمْ حَتَّى تَفَرَّقُوا ثُمَّ هَجَّرْتُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَإِذَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي إِلَى سَارِيَةٍ فَسَكَتَ لَا يُكَلِّمُنِي فَصَلَّيْتُ ثُمَّ جَلَسْتُ فَاحْتَبَيْتُ بِرِدَائِي ثُمَّ جَلَسَ فَسَكَتَ لَا يُكَلِّمُنِي وَسَكَتُّ لَا أُكَلِّمُهُ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ قَالَ فِيمَ تُحِبُّنِي؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ فِي اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَأَخَذَ بِحُبْوَتِي فَجَرَّنِي إِلَيْهِ هُنَيَّةً ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبْشِرْ إِنْ كُنْتَ صَادِقًا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْمُتَحَابُّونَ فِي جَلَالِي لَهُمْ مَنَابِرُ مِنْ نُورٍ يَغْبِطُهُمُ النَّبِيُّونَ وَالشُّهَدَاءُ 10 قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ فَلَقِيتُ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ الصَّامِتِ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا الْوَلِيدِ لَا أُحَدِّثُكَ بِمَا حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ فِي الْمُتَحَابِّينَ قَالَ فَأَنَا أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ ﷻ قَالَ حَقَّتْمَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَحَابِّينَ فِيَّ وَحَقَّتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَزَاوِرِينَ فِيَّ وَحَقَّتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَبَاذِلِينَ فِيَّ وَحَقَّتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَوَاصِلِينَ فِيَّ  

[Machine] On the Day of Resurrection, the believers will be raised barefoot, unclothed, and with eyes darkened, the age of thirty years.  

نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ يُبْعَثُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ جُرْدًا مُرْدًا مُكَحَّلِينَ بَنِي ثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً  

[Machine] "I came to the Messenger of Allah, seeking him. It was said to me that he had gone out. So, I decided not to appoint anyone until it was said to me that he had just passed. I kept going until I found him standing and praying. I approached him and stood behind him. The prayer became longer, and when he finished the prayer, I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, you have prayed a long prayer.' The Messenger of Allah replied, 'Indeed, I have prayed a prayer out of desire and fear. I asked Allah for three things, and He granted me two and prevented me from one. I asked Him that my Ummah not be destroyed by drowning, and He granted it. I asked Him that He not make an enemy from outside of them overpower them, and He granted it. And I asked Him that He not cause them to fight amongst themselves, and He returned that to me.'"

Note: The ṣalāh mentioned in the passage refers to the Islamic prayer.  

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَطْلُبُهُ فَقِيلَ لِي خَرَجَ قَبْلُ قَالَ فَجَعَلْتُ لَا أَمُرُّ بِأَحَدٍ إِلَّا قَالَ مَرَّ قَبْلُ حَتَّى مَرَرْتُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ قَائِمًا يُصَلِّي قَالَ فَجِئْتُ حَتَّى قُمْتُ خَلْفَهُ قَالَ فَأَطَالَ الصَّلَاةَ فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِلَقَدْ صَلَّيْتَ صَلَاةً طَوِيلَةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِّي صَلَّيْتُ صَلَاةَ رَغْبَةٍ وَرَهْبَةٍ سَأَلْتُ اللهَ ثَلَاثًا فَأَعْطَانِي اثْنَتَيْنِ وَمَنَعَنِي وَاحِدَةً سَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ لَا يُهْلِكَ أُمَّتِي غَرَقًا فَأَعْطَانِيهَا وَسَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ لَا يُظْهِرَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَدُوًّا لَيْسَ مِنْهُمْ فَأَعْطَانِيهَا وَسَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ لَا يَجْعَلَ بَأْسَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ فَرَدَّهَا عَلَيَّ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "O Mu'adh, whoever dies while not associating anything with Allah, shall enter Paradise."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ يَا مُعَاذُ مَنْ مَاتَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) sent me to confirm the belief of the people of Yemen and commanded me to take from every thirty cows for sale. Harun said, "The sale refers to a yearling or yearling female calf, and from every forty, an older female." They presented to me the option of taking from the forty. Harun said, "Between the forty and fifty."  

بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أُصَدِّقُ أَهْلَ الْيَمَنِ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ مِنَ الْبَقَرِ مِنْ كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعًا قَالَ هَارُونُ وَالتَّبِيعُ الْجَذَعُ أَوِ الْجَذَعَةُ وَمِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ مُسِنَّةً قَالَ فَعَرَضُوا عَلَيَّ أَنْ آخُذَ مِنَ الْأَرْبَعِينَ قَالَ هَارُونُ مَا بَيْنَ الْأَرْبَعِينَ والْخَمْسِينَ  

[Machine] "It is the mercy of your Lord and the supplication of your Prophet and the gathering of the righteous before you. O Allah, grant the family of Mu'adh their share of this mercy. Then he descended from his position and entered upon Abdurrahman bin Mu'adh. Abdurrahman said, 'The truth is from your Lord, so be not of those who are skeptical.' (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:147). Mu'adh said, 'You will find me, if Allah wills, among the patient.' (Surah As-Saaffat, 37:102)."  

إِنَّهَا رَحْمَةُ رَبِّكُمْ وَدَعْوَةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ وَقَبْضُ الصَّالِحِينَ قَبْلَكُمْ اللهُمَّ أَدْخِلْ عَلَى آلِ مُعَاذٍ نَصِيبَهُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ الرَّحْمَةِ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ مِنْ مَقَامِهِ ذَلِكَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ {الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ} [البقرة 147] فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ {سَتَجِدُنِي إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ مِنَ الصَّابِرِينَ} [الصافات 102]
