ذِكْرُ إِطْلَاقِ اسْمِ الزِّنَى عَلَى الْقَلْبِ إِذَا تَمَنَّى وقُوعَ مَا حُرِّمَ عَلَيْهِ

[Machine] "And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Every son of Adam has a share of fornication, and there is no doubt about it. The eye commits adultery by looking, the tongue commits adultery by speaking, the heart commits adultery by desiring, and the private parts confirm or deny it.'"  

ابن حبّان:٤٤٢١أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي السَّرِيِّ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كُلُّ بَنِي آدَمَ لَهُ نَصِيبٌ مِنَ الزِّنَى أَدْرَكَهُ ذَلِكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَالْعَيْنُ زِنَاهَا النَّظَرُ وَاللِّسَانُ زِنَاهُ النُّطْقُ وَالْقَلْبُ زِنَاهُ التَّمَنِّي وَالْفَرْجُ يُصَدِّقُ وَيُكَذِّبُ»

ahmad:8215

[Machine] And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is written upon the son of Adam a portion of adultery that he will inevitably reach. The eyes commit adultery through looking, and it is supported by the desires and the tongue commits adultery through speech, and the heart desires and the private parts confirm or deny what has occurred."  

أحمد:٨٢١٥

وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كُتِبَ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ نَصِيبٌ مِنَ الزِّنَا أَدْرَكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَالْعَيْنُ زِنْيَتُهَا النَّظَرُ وَيُصَدِّقُهَا الْأَعْرَاضُ وَاللِّسَانُ زِنْيَتُهُ الْمَنْطِقُ وَالْقَلْبُ التَّمَنِّي وَالْفَرْجُ يُصَدِّقُ مَا ثَمَّ وَيُكَذِّبُ

Abu Huraira reported Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying. Allah fixed the very portion of adultery which a man will indulge in. There would be no escape from it. The adultery of the eye is the lustful look and the adultery of the ears is listening to voluptuous (song or talk) and the adultery of the tongue is licentious speech and the adultery of the hand is the lustful grip (embrace) and the adultery of the feet is to walk (to the place) where he intends to commit adultery and the heart yearns and desires which he may or may not put into effect. (Using translation from Muslim 2658a)   

الحاكم:٣٧٥٢حَدَّثَنَا الشَّيْخُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَنْبَأَ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ شَرِيكٍ الْبَزَّازُ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ ثنا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ عَنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «عَلَى كُلِّ نَفْسٍ مِنِ ابْنِ آدَمَ كُتِبَ حَظٌّ مِنَ الزِّنَا أَدْرَكَ ذَلِكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَالْعَيْنُ زِنَاهَا النَّظَرُ وَالرِّجْلُ زِنَاهَا الْمَشْيُ وَالْأُذُنُ زِنَاهَا السَّمَاعُ وَالْيَدُ زِنَاهَا الْبَطْشُ وَاللِّسَانُ زِنَاهُ الْكَلَامُ وَالْقَلْبُ يَتَمَنَّى وَيَشْتَهِي وَيُصَدِّقُ ذَلِكَ أَوْ يُكَذِّبُهُ الْفَرْجُ»

ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ زِنَى الْعَيْنِ وَاللِّسَانِ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah has decreed for the son of Adam his share of adultery which will inevitably happen to him; the adultery of the eyes is looking, the adultery of the tongue is speaking, and the soul desires and covets it, while the private parts either confirm or deny it."  

ابن حبّان:٤٤٢٠أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ يَعْنِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ مَا رَأَيْتُ شَيْئًا أَشْبَهُ بِاللَّمَمِ مِمَّا قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ حَظَّهُ مِنَ الزِّنَى أَدْرَكَ ذَلِكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَزِنَى الْعَيْنُ النَّظَرُ وَزِنَى اللِّسَانِ النُّطْقُ وَالنَّفْسُ تَتَمَنَّى ذَلِكَ وَتَشْتَهِي وَيُصَدِّقُ ذَلِكَ الْفَرْجُ أَوْ يُكَذِّبُهُ»  

ذِكْرُ إِطْلَاقِ اسْمِ الزِّنَى عَلَى الْيَدِ إِذَا لَمَسْتَ مَا لَا يَحِلُّ لَهَا

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "Every son of Adam is prone to commit adultery, and the eyes commit adultery by looking, the hands commit adultery by touching, and the soul desires and confirms it or denies it."  

ابن حبّان:٤٤٢٢أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ الطُّرْسُوسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْمُرَادِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ اللَّيْثِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنِ اللَّيْثِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَأْثُرُهُ

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «كُلُّ بَنِي آدَمَ أَصَابَ مِنَ الزِّنَى لَا مَحَالَةَ فَالْعَيْنُ زِنَاؤُهَا النَّظَرُ وَالْيَدُ زِنَاؤُهَا اللَّمْسُ وَالنَّفْسُ تَهْوَى يُصَدِّقُهُ أَوْ يُكَذِّبُهُ الْفَرْجُ»
