Caution: Translations of Quran and Ḥadīth may lead to possible misapplications and misinterpretations. This site is intended for students of sacred knowledge that are proficient in comprehending classical Arabic and have a strong foundation in Islamic sciences. Also note that religious injunctions rely on several aspects beyond what one may glean through reading individual aḥādīth.

ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ قَوْلَهُ ﷺ «وَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ» أَرَادَ بِهِ مِنْ أُمُورِ الدِّينِ، لَا مِنْ أُمُورِ الدُّنْيَا

“What is this noise?” They said: “Palm trees that are being pollinated.” He said: “If they did not do that it would be better.” So they did not pollinate them that year, and the dates did not mature properly. they mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: “If it is one of the matters of your religion, then refer to me.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2471)   

ابن حبّان:٢٢أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سَمِعَ أَصْوَاتًا فَقَالَ «مَا هَذِهِ الْأَصْوَاتُ؟ » قَالُوا النَّخْلُ يَأْبِرُونَهُ فَقَالَ «لَوْ لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا لَصَلُحَ ذَلِكَ» فَأَمْسَكُوا فَلَمْ يَأْبِرُوا عَامَّتَهُ فَصَارَ شِيصًا فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «إِذَا كَانَ شَيْءٌ مِنْ أَمْرِ دُنْيَاكُمْ فَشَأْنُكُمْ وَإِذَا كَانَ شَيْءٌ مِنْ أَمْرِ دِينِكُمْ فَإِلَيَّ»
