٢٢۔ كِتَابُ الْوَصَايَا
[Machine] "And fear Allah and reconcile the differences between yourselves and obey Allah and His Messenger, if you are believers." And He commanded them with what He commanded His sons Ibrahim and Ya'qub: "O my sons, indeed Allah has chosen for you the religion, so do not die except while you are Muslims." [Al-Baqarah 132] And He advised them not to desire to be allies of the Ansar and their brothers in faith, and that chastity and truthfulness are better and more cautious than adultery and lying, if it happens in my illness before I change my will. Then he mentioned his need.
أَنْ {اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَصْلِحُوا ذَاتَ بَيْنِكُمْ وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ} وَأَوْصَاهُمْ بِمَا أَوْصَى بِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بَنِيهِ وَيَعْقُوبُ {يَا بَنِيَّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفَى لَكُمُ الدِّينَ فَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ} [البقرة 132] وَأَوْصَاهُمْ أَنْ لَا يَرْغَبُوا أَنْ يَكُونُوا مَوَالِيَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَإِخْوَانَهُمْ فِي الدِّينِ وَأَنَّ الْعِفَّةَ وَالصِّدْقَ خَيْرٌ وَأَتْقَى مِنَ الزِّنَا وَالْكَذِبِ إِنْ حَدَثَ بِهِ حَدَثٌ فِي مَرَضِي هَذَا قَبْلَ أَنْ أُغَيِّرَ وَصِيَّتِي هَذِهِ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ حَاجَتَهُ
[Machine] "There is no god but Allah, alone without partner, and Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. And that the Hour is coming without a doubt, and that Allah will raise those who are in the graves, and He commanded those who are left behind from their families to be mindful of Allah and to reconcile between themselves, and to obey Allah and His Messenger if they are believers. And He commanded them with what He commanded his offspring, Ibrahim and Ya'qub, 'O my sons! Indeed, Allah has chosen for you the religion, so do not die except while you are Muslims.' And He commanded if something happens to him from his suffering, the need he has such and such."
أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَأَنَّ السَّاعَةَ آتِيَةٌ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهَا وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَبْعَثُ مَنْ فِي الْقُبُورِ وَأَوْصَى مَنْ تَرَكَ بَعْدَهُ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ أَنْ يَتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَيُصْلِحُوا ذَاتَ بَيْنِهِمْ وَأَنْ يُطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ إِنْ كَانُوا مُؤْمِنِينَ وَأَوْصَاهُمْ بِمَا أَوْصَى بِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بَنِيهِ وَيَعْقُوبُ {يَا بَنِيَّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفَى لَكُمُ الدِّينَ فَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ} [البقرة 132] وَأَوْصَى إِنْ حَدَثَ بِهِ حَدَثٌ مِنْ وَجَعِهِ هَذَا أَنَّ حَاجَتَهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا
[Machine] We bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, with no partner, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger. He believes in Allah and disbelieves in all false deities. By Allah's will, he will live, die, and be resurrected. He advises regarding what Allah has provided and what he has left behind. If something happens to him, it is as described. If nothing changes from what is stated in this will.
تَشَهُّدُ هَذَا مَا شَهِدَ بِهِ نَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَيُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَيَكْفُرُ بِالطَّاغُوتِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ يَحْيَا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَيَمُوتُ وَيُبْعَثُ وَأَوْصَى فِيمَا رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ فِيمَا تَرَكَ إِنْ حَدَثَ بِهِ حَدَثٌ وَهُوَ كَذَا وَكَذَا إِنْ لَمْ يُغَيِّرْ شَيْئًا مِمَّا فِي هَذِهِ الْوَصِيَّةِ
«هَذِهِ وَصِيَّةُ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ»
[Machine] "The following is the testament of Rabee' bin Khuthaym, in the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. This is what Rabee' bin Khuthaym has advised, and I bear witness to Allah, who suffices as a witness and rewarder for His righteous servants. Verily, I am pleased with Allah as my Lord, Islam as my religion, and Muhammad ﷺ as a prophet. Indeed, I command myself and those who obey me to worship Allah among the worshippers, to praise Him among those who praise Him, and to sincerely advise the Muslim community."
كَتَبَ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ خُثَيْمٍ وَصِيَّتَهُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ هَذَا مَا أَوْصَى بِهِ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ خُثَيْمٍ وَأَشْهَدَ اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ وَكَفَى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيدًا وَجَازِيًا لِعِبَادِهِ الصَّالِحِينَ وَمُثِيبًا فَإِنِّي رَضِيتُ بِاللَّهِ رَبًّا وَبِالْإِسْلَامِ دِينًا وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ نَبِيًّا وَإِنِّي آمُرُ نَفْسِي وَمَنْ أَطَاعَنِي أَنْ نَعْبُدَ اللَّهَ فِي الْعَابِدِينَ وَنَحْمَدَهُ فِي الْحَامِدِينَ وَأَنْ نَنْصَحَ لِجَمَاعَةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ
