[Machine] "Ubaidullah, you have extinguished knowledge and removed its light. If Omar (may Allah be pleased with him) were alive, he would have punished us severely."
عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ «شِنْتُمُ الْعِلْمَ وَأَذْهَبْتُمْ نُورَهُ وَلَوْ أَدْرَكَنِي وَإِيَّاكُمْ عُمَرُ رضوان الله عليه لَأَوْجَعَنَا»
[Machine] "Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, said: 'Learn knowledge, and when you have learned it, keep it to yourself, and do not mix it with laughter or play, for it will corrupt the hearts.'"
عَلِيٌّ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ «تَعَلَّمُوا الْعِلْمَ فَإِذَا عَلِمْتُمُوهُ فَاكْظِمُوا عليْهِ وَلَا تَشُوبُوهُ بِضَحِكٍ وَلَا بِلَعِبٍ فَتَمُجَّهُ الْقُلُوبُ»
[Machine] "Whoever laughs a laughter that is complete and full of knowledge."
«مَنْ ضَحِكَ ضَحْكَةً مَجَّ مَجَّةً مِنَ الْعِلْمِ»
[Machine] So, what caused knowledge to be removed from the hearts of the scholars? He said, "Greed."
فَمَا أَخْرَجَ الْعِلْمَ مِنْ قُلُوبِ الْعُلَمَاءِ؟ قَالَ «الطَّمَعُ»
[Machine] "I was going to 'Amr ibn Nu'man when the Messenger of Mus'ab ibn Zubayr came to him. It was during the month of Ramadan, and he had one thousand dirhams with him. The Messenger said, 'Indeed, the commander (Ali) sends you his greetings, and he said, 'We have not left a noble reciter except that we have sent him something good. So, rely on these two (dirhams) for your expenses this month.' He (Mus'ab) said, 'Convey my greetings to the commander, and tell him that by Allah, we have not recited the Qur'an seeking the worldly life and its wealth.'"
كُنْتُ نَازِلًا عَلَى عَمْرِو بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ فَأَتَاهُ رَسُولُ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ حِينَ حَضَرَهُ رَمَضَانُ بِأَلْفَيْ دِرْهَمٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْأَمِيرَ يُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ وَقَالَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَدَعْ قَارِئًا شَرِيفًا إِلَّا وَقَدْ وَصَلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنَّا مَعْرُوفٌ فَاسْتَعِنْ بِهَذَيْنِ عَلَى نَفَقَةِ شَهْرِكَ هَذَا فَقَالَ أَقْرِئِ الْأَمِيرَ السَّلَامَ وَقُلْ لَهُ إِنَّا وَاللَّهِ مَا قَرَأْنَا الْقُرْآنَ نُرِيدُ بِهِ الدُّنْيَا وَدِرْهَمَهَا
0.49 [Machine] The Sunnah is a definitive judge on the Book of Allah, exalted be He
٠۔٤٩ بَابٌ: السُّنَّةُ قَاضِيَةٌ عَلَى كِتَابِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Soon there will come a time that a man will be reclining on his pillow, and when one of my Ahadith is narrated he will say: 'The Book of Allah is (sufficient) between us and you. Whatever it states is permissible, we will take as permissible, and whatever it states is forbidden, we will take as forbidden.' Verily, whatever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has forbidden is like that which Allah has forbidden." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 12)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَرَّمَ أَشْيَاءَ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ الْحِمَارَ وَغَيْرَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَيُوشِكُ الرَّجلِ مُتَّكِئًا عَلَى أَرِيكَتِهِ يُحَدَّثُ بِحَدِيثِي فَيَقُولُ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ مَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ مِنْ حَلَالٍ اسْتَحْلَلْنَاهُ وَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ مِنْ حَرَامٍ حَرَّمْنَاهُ أَلَا وَإِنَّ مَا حَرَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فهُوَ مِثْلُ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى
[Machine] "The Sunnah is a judge over the Quran, and the Quran is not a judge over the Sunnah."
«السُّنَّةُ قَاضِيَةٌ عَلَى الْقُرْآنِ وَلَيْسَ الْقُرْآنُ بِقَاضٍ عَلَى السُّنَّةِ»
[Machine] Gabriel used to descend upon the Prophet with the Sunnah (traditions and teachings of the Prophet) just as he descends upon him with the Quran.
«كَانَ جِبْرِيلُ يَنْزِلُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِالسُّنَّةِ كَمَا يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِ بِالْقُرْآنِ»
[Machine] In English, the translation of the given sentence is: "There are two types of Sunnah; a Sunnah that is obligatory to follow and leaving it is considered a sin, and a Sunnah that is recommended to follow but leaving it is not a matter of concern."
السُّنَّةُ سُنَّتَانِ سُنَّةٌ الْأَخْذُ بِهَا فَرِيضَةٌ وَتَرْكُهَا كُفْرٌ وَسُنَّةٌ الْأَخْذُ بِهَا فَضِيلَةٌ وَتَرْكُهَا إِلَى غَيْرِ حَرَجٍ
[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ, a man said: "In the Book of Allah, what contradicts this?". He replied, "I do not see that I am narrating to you from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while presenting you with a verse from the Book of Allah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had more knowledge of the Book of Allah, the Most High, than you."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ مَا يُخَالِفُ هَذَا قَالَ «لَا أُرَانِي أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَتُعَرِّضُ فِيهِ بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَعْلَمَ بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى مِنْكَ»
0.50 [Machine] Interpretation of the Hadith of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
٠۔٥٠ بَابُ تَأْوِيلِ حَدِيثِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
If you are told a hadeeth from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then think of it in the most guided, the best and the most pious manner. (Using translation from Aḥmad 985)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَظُنُّوا بِهِ الَّذِي هُوَ أَهْيَأُ وَالَّذِي هُوَ أَهْدَى وَالَّذِي هُوَ أَتْقَى»
If you are told a hadeeth from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then think of it in the most guided, the best and the most pious manner. (Using translation from Aḥmad 985)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَظُنُّوا بِهِ الَّذِي هُوَ أَهْدَى وَالَّذِي هُوَ أَتْقَى وَالَّذِي هُوَ أَهْيَأُ»
‘Whoever lies upon me intentionally, then let him take his seat in the Fire’. (Using translation from Muslim 3)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مِنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ مُتَعَمِّدًا فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مَنِ النَّارِ»
[Machine] "Regarding the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, if you do not find it in the book of Allah or a good report among the people, then know that I have lied about it."
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمْ تَجِدُوهُ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ أوْ حَسَنًا عِنْدَ النَّاسِ فَاعْلَمُوا أنِّي قدْ كَذَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ»
عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَحْوَلِ
[Machine] "The most ascetic of people are those who are most knowledgeable about its people."
«إِنَّ أَزْهَدَ النَّاسِ فِي عَالِمٍ أَهْلُهُ»
0.51 [Machine] Study of Knowledge
٠۔٥١ بَابُ مُذَاكَرَةِ الْعِلْمِ
[Machine] "Study the Hadith, for indeed the Hadith arouses and inspires the Hadith."
«تَذَاكَرُوا الْحَدِيثَ فَإِنَّ الْحَدِيثَ يُهَيِّجُ الْحَدِيثَ»
[Machine] "Study the Hadith, for surely the Hadith ignites the Hadith."
«تَذَاكَرُوا الْحَدِيثَ فَإِنَّ الْحَدِيثَ يُهَيِّجُ الْحَدِيثَ»
[Machine] "Memorize the saying (Hadith), for indeed the saying (Hadith) stimulates the saying (Hadith)."
«تَذَاكَرُوا الْحَدِيثَ فَإِنَّ الْحَدِيثَ يُهَيِّجُ الْحَدِيثَ»
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ
[Machine] From Abu Sa'eed, there is more speech in it than this.
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَفِيهِ كَلَامٌ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ هَذَا
[Machine] "For me, there is a peacock, 'Let's go and mix with the people.'"
لِي طَاوُسٌ «اذْهَبْ بِنَا نُجَالِسِ النَّاسَ»
[Machine] "Memorize this hadith, do not let it escape from you, for it is not like the Quran, which is collected and preserved. If you do not memorize this hadith, it will escape from you, and one of you may say, 'I narrated it yesterday, so I will not narrate it today, but I will narrate what I heard yesterday.' Instead, narrate it today and narrate it tomorrow."
«تَذَاكَرُوا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ لَا يَنْفَلِتْ مِنْكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِثْلَ الْقُرْآنِ مَجْمُوعٌ مَحْفُوظٌ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِنْ لَمْ تَذَاكَرُوا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ يَنْفَلِتْ مِنْكُمْ وَلَا يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ حَدَّثْتُ أَمْسِ فَلَا أُحَدِّثُ الْيَوْمَ بَلْ حَدِّثْ أَمْسِ وَلْتُحَدِّثِ الْيَوْمَ وَلْتُحَدِّثْ غَدًا»
[Machine] I have told him once, for whoever hears it will increase in knowledge, and those who have not heard it will listen.
قَدْ حَدَّثْتُهُ مَرَّةً فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ كَانَ سَمِعَهُ يَزْدَادُ بِهِ عِلْمًا وَيَسْمَعُ مَنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ
[Machine] "Review, for the revival of the discussion stems from its review."
«تَذَاكَرُوا فَإِنَّ إِحْيَاءَ الْحَدِيثِ مُذَاكَرَتُهُ»
[Machine] "Memorize the saying because its mention is its life."
«تَذَاكَرُوا الْحَدِيثَ فَإِنَّ ذِكْرَهُ حَيَاتُهُ»
[Machine] Ibn Shihab used to narrate stories to the Bedouins.
كَانَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ «يُحَدِّثُ الْأَعْرَابَ»
[Machine] Ismail bin Raja used to gather young writers, talk to them, and advise them.
كَانَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ «يَجْمَعُ صِبْيَانَ الْكُتَّابِ يُحَدِّثُهُمْ يَتَحَفَّظُ بِذَلِكََ»
[Machine] "Speak your words to whoever desires to hear them, and to those who do not desire, for it will be to you as if you were reciting it to an Imam."
«حَدِّثْ حَدِيثَكَ مَنْ يَشْتَهِيهِ وَمَنْ لَا يَشْتَهِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ يَصِيرُ عِنْدَكَ كَأَنَّهُ إِمَامٌ تَقْرَؤُهُ»
[Machine] "If you hear a saying from us, then discuss it among yourselves."
«إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَتَذَاكَرُوهُ بَيْنَكُمْ»
[Machine] "We used to come to Hassan, and when we left his place, we would revise among ourselves."
«كُنَّا نَأْتِي الْحَسَنَ فَإِذَا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ تَذَاكَرْنَا بَيْنَنَا»
[Machine] "To narrate a hadith, let it be repeated three times."
أَنْ يَرْوِيَ حَدِيثًا فَلْيُرَدِّدْهُ ثَلَاثًا»
[Machine] Abdullah bin Shaddad, may Allah have mercy on you, how many conversations have you revived in my heart that were dead.
لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ شَدَّادٍ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ كَمْ مِنْ حَدِيثٍ أَحْيَيْتَهُ فِي صَدْرِي كَانَ قَدْ مَاتَ
[Machine] Al-Harith ibn Yazid al-Ukli, Ibn Shubrumah, and al-Qaqa ibn Yazid, and Mughirah, when they prayed the last Isha prayer, sat in the study circle and they did not separate until the dawn Adhan.
كَانَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْعُكْلِيُّ وَابْنُ شُبْرُمَةَ وَالْقَعْقَاعُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ وَمُغِيرَةُ «إِذَا صَلَّوْا الْعِشَاءَ الْآخِرَةَ جَلَسُوا فِي الْفِقْهِ فَلَمْ يُفَرِّقْ بَيْنَهُمْ إِلَّا أَذَانُ الصُّبْحِ»
[Machine] "Regarding two of them, 'There is no harm in diversity of opinion in jurisprudence.'"
عَنِ اثْنَيْنِ مِنْهُمْ «لَا بَأْسَ بِالسَّمَرِ فِي الْفِقْهِ»
[Machine] "There is no harm in using black dye in jurisprudence."
«لَا بَأْسَ بِالسَّمَرِ فِي الْفِقْهِ»
[Machine] Ibn Abbas said, "Studying knowledge for one hour during the night is better than staying awake throughout it."
ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «تَدَارُسُ الْعِلْمِ سَاعَةً مِنَ اللَّيْلِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ إِحْيَائِهَا»
[Machine] "We used to come to Jabir ibn Abdullah, and when we would leave his company, we would review what he had said. Abu Zubair was the most knowledgeable among us regarding his Hadith."
«كُنَّا نَأْتِي جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَإِذَا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ تَذَاكَرْنَا فَكَانَ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَحْفَظَنَا لِحَدِيثِهِ»
[Machine] "So his gathering continued until morning," said Marwan, as he began discussing the narration.
«فَمَا زَالَ ذَلِكَ مَجْلِسَهُ حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ» قَالَ مَرْوَانُ جَعَلَ يَتَذَاكَرُ الْحَدِيثَ
[Machine] "When I meet Ubaidullah ibn Abdullah, it is as if I have unleashed a sea."
«كُنْتُ إِذَا لَقِيتُ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَكَأَنَّمَا أَفْجُرُ بِهِ بَحْرًا»
[Machine] Al-Harith al-Ukli and his companions used to "sit together at night and discuss jurisprudence."
كَانَ الْحَارِثُ الْعُكْلِيُّ وَأَصْحَابُهُ «يَتَجَالَسُونَ بِاللَّيْلِ وَيَذْكُرُونَ الْفِقْهَ»
[Machine] "Study this speech, for his life is in studying it."
«تَذَاكَرُوا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فَإِنَّ حَيَاتَهُ مُذَاكَرَتُهُ»
[Machine] When Abdullah's companions came to him, he asked them, "Are you sitting together?" They replied, "Yes, O Abu Abdurrahman, we do not neglect that." He then asked, "Do you visit each other?" They replied, "Yes, O Abu Abdurrahman. Indeed, one of us loses his brother, so he walks in pursuit of him until he finds him." Abdullah said, "Surely, you will continue to be upon good as long as you continue to do that."
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لِأَصْحَابِهِ حِينَ قَدِمُوا عَلَيْهِ «هَلْ تَجَالَسُونَ؟» قَالُوا لَيْسَ نُتْرَكُ ذاكَ قَالَ «فَهَلْ تَزَاوَرُونَ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ مِنَّا لَيَفْقِدُ أَخَاهُ فَيَمْشِي فِي طَلَبِهِ إِلَى أَقْصَى الْكُوفَةِ حَتَّى يَلْقَاهُ قَالَ «فَإِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَزَالُوا بِخَيْرٍ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ ذَلِكَ»
[Machine] "The flaw of knowledge is forgetfulness and abandoning revision."
«آفَةُ الْعِلْمِ النِّسْيَانُ وَتَرْكُ الْمُذَاكَرَةِ»
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ «آفَةُ الْحَدِيثِ النِّسْيَانُ»
[Machine] Abdullah said, "Indeed, everything has a harm, and the harm of knowledge is forgetfulness."
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ «إِنَّ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ آفَةً وَآفَةُ الْعِلْمِ النِّسْيَانُ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The harm of knowledge is forgetfulness and its loss is when it is conveyed to someone other than its people."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «آفَةُ الْعِلْمِ النِّسْيَانُ وَإِضَاعَتُهُ أَنْ تُحَدِّثَ بِهِ غَيْرَ أَهْلِهِ»
«غَائِلَةُ الْعِلْمِ النِّسْيَانُ»
[Machine] Ali said, "Memorize this hadith and review it, for if you do not, you will forget it."
عَلِيٌّ «تَذَاكَرُوا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ وَتَزَاوَرُوا فَإِنَّكُمْ إِنْ لَا تَفْعَلُوا يَدْرُسْ»
