[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I perceive a profound saying that the Arabs have uttered, the saying of Labid [Al-Bahr Al-Taweel]: 'Verily, everything that is other than Allah is futile.'"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَشْعَرُ كَلِمَةٍ قَالَتْهَا الْعَرَبُ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ[البحر الطويل]أَلَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مَا خَلَا اللهَ بَاطِلُ
The truest word spoken by an Arab (pre-Islamic) in poetry is this verse of Labid: "Behold! apart from Allah everything is vain."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَشْعَرُ كَلِمَةٍ تَكَلَّمَتْ بِهَا الْعَرَبُ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ أَلاَ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ مَا خَلاَ اللَّهَ بَاطِلٌ
The truest word uttered by a poet is this verse of Labid: "Behold! apart from Allah everything is vain," and Umayya b. Abu Salt was almost a Muslim.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَصْدَقُ كَلِمَةٍ قَالَهَا شَاعِرٌ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ أَلاَ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ مَا خَلاَ اللَّهَ بَاطِلٌ وَكَادَ أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ
I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: The truest word which the poet stated is the word of Labid: "Behold! apart from Allah everything is vain."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ أَصْدَقَ كَلِمَةٍ قَالَهَا شَاعِرٌ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ أَلاَ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ مَا خَلاَ اللَّهَ بَاطِلٌ مَا زَادَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ
that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The best statement spoken by the Arab is the saying of Labid: 'Everything aside from Allah perishes.'"
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَشْعَرُ كَلِمَةٍ تَكَلَّمَتْ بِهَا الْعَرَبُ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ أَلاَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مَا خَلاَ اللَّهَ بَاطِلُ
"The truest of wods spoken by the poet are the words of Labid: Everything except Allah is false.' And Abu Umayyah bin Abu Salt nearly accepted Islam."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَصْدَقُ كَلِمَةٍ قَالَهَا الشَّاعِرُ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ أَلاَ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ مَا خَلاَ اللَّهَ بَاطِلُ وَكَادَ أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say on the pulpit: "I recall a phrase that the Arabs used to say, a phrase of Labid ibn Rabiah [Al-Bahr Al-Tawil]: 'Verily, everything that is void of Allah is futile.'"
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَشْعَرُ كَلِمَةٍ قَالَتْهَا الْعَرَبُ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ[البحر الطويل]أَلَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مَا خَلَا اللهَ بَاطِلُ
"The truest of wods spoken by the poet are the words of Labid: Everything except Allah is false.' And Abu Umayyah bin Abu Salt nearly accepted Islam." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3757)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَصْدَقُ كَلِمَةٍ قَالَهَا الشَّاعِرُ[البحر الطويل]أَلَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مَا خَلَا اللهَ بَاطِلُوَكَادَ أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ
The truest word uttered by a poet is this verse of Labid: "Behold! apart from Allah everything is vain," and Umayya b. Abu Salt was almost a Muslim. (Using translation from Muslim 2256b)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَصْدَقُ كَلِمَةٍ قَالَهَا شَاعِرٌ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ[البحر الطويل]أَلَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مَا خَلَا اللهَ بَاطِلُوَكَادَ أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ
[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, "I feel a word that the Arabs have spoken, the word of Labid."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَشْعَرُ كَلِمَةٍ تَكَلَّمَتْ بِهَا الْعَرَبُ كَلِمَةُ لَبِيدٍ
The truest word spoken by an Arab (pre-Islamic) in poetry is this verse of Labid: "Behold! apart from Allah everything is vain." (Using translation from Muslim 2256a)
"أَشْعَرُ كَلَمةٍ تَكلَّمَتْ بِهَا الْعَرَبُ كلِمَةُ لَبيدٍ: أَلا كُلَّ شيءٍ مَا خَلا الله بَاطِلٌ" .
