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.

ذِكْرُ تَحْرِيمِ اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا عَلَى النَّارِ الْأَقْدَامَ الَّتِي اغْبَرَّتْ فِي سَبِيلِهِ

ibnhibban:4604al-Ḥasan b. Sufyān > Ḥabbān > ʿAbdullāh > ʿUtbah b. Abū Ḥakīm > Ḥuṣayn b. Ḥarmalah al-Mahrī > Abū al-Muṣabbiḥ al-Maqrāʾī

[Machine] He has a horse, O Abu Abdullah, ride it, for Allah has burdened you. Jabir said, "I will fix my ride and be independent of my people." I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying, "Whoever raises his feet for the sake of Allah, Allah will forbid the Fire upon him." Malik found his words astonishing, so he went until he reached the place where his voice could be heard. He called out to him in a loud voice, "O Abu Abdullah, ride it, for Allah has burdened you." Jabir recognized the intention behind raising his voice and said, "I will fix my ride and be independent of my people." I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying, "Whoever raises his feet for the sake of Allah, Allah will forbid the Fire upon him." So people jumped off their animals and we did not see a day with more people walking than him.  

ابن حبّان:٤٦٠٤أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا عُتْبَةُ بْنُ أَبِي حَكِيمٍ عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ حَرْمَلَةَ الْمَهْرِيِّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُصَبِّحِ الْمَقْرَائِيُّ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ نَسِيرُ بِأَرْضِ الرُّومِ فِي طَائِفَةٍ عَلَيْهَا مَالِكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْخَثْعَمِيُّ إِذْ مَرَّ مَالِكٌ بِجَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَهُوَ يَمْشِي يَقُودُ بَغْلًا لَهُ فَقَالَ

لَهُ مَالِكٌ أَيْ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ارْكَبْ فَقَدْ حَمَلَكَ اللَّهُ فَقَالَ جَابِرٌ أُصْلِحُ دَابَّتِي وَأَسْتَغْنِي عَنْ قَوْمِي وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنِ اغْبَرَّتْ قَدَمَاهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَرَّمَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّارِ» فَأَعْجَبَ مَالِكًا قَوْلُهُ فَسَارَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ حَيْثُ يُسْمِعُهُ الصَّوْتَ نَادَاهُ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِهِ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ارْكَبْ فَقَدْ حَمَلَكَ اللَّهُ فَعَرَفَ جَابِرٌ الَّذِي أَرَادَ بِرَفْعِ صَوْتِهِ وَقَالَ أُصْلِحُ دَابَّتِي وَأَسْتَغْنِي عَنْ قَوْمِي وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنِ اغْبَرَّتْ قَدَمَاهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَرَّمَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّارِ» فَوَثَبَ النَّاسُ عَنْ دَوَابِّهِمْ فَمَا رَأَيْنَا يَوْمًا أَكْثَرَ مَاشِيًا مِنْهُ
