I said: O Messenger of Allah, tell me about Islam a thing something after which I would not need to ask anyone else after you. In the Ḥadīth of Abū Usāmah the ˹words˺ are: other than you. He said: "Say: I believe in Allah, and then remain steadfast upon it."
قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قُلْ لِي فِي الإِسْلاَمِ قَوْلاً لاَ أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَكَ؟ وَفِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ: غَيْرَكَ۔ قَالَ: «قُلْ آمَنْتُ بِاللَّهِ فَاسْتَقِمْ۔»
[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, tell me something about Islam that I can ask no one but you about." He said, "Say, 'I believe in Allah,' and then be steadfast."
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قُلْ لِي فِي الْإِسْلَامِ قَوْلًا لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ أَحَدًا غَيْرَكَ قَالَ أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ بَعْدَكَ قَالَ قُلْ آمَنْتُ بِاللهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَقِمْ
[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, inform me of a matter in Islam that I will not ask anyone about after you." He (the Prophet) said, "Say, 'I believe in Allah,' and then be steadfast." He (the questioner) said, "O Messenger of Allah, what should I fear?" He (the Prophet) said, "Pointing to his tongue, said: Control this."
يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِأَمْرٍ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَكَ قَالَ قُلْ آمَنْتُ بِاللهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَقِمْ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَيَّ شَيْءٍ أَتَّقِي؟ قَالَ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى لِسَانِهِ
[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, Husaym said: 'O Messenger of Allah, tell me something about Islam which I may not ask anyone else after you.' He said: 'Say: I believe in Allah, then be steadfast.' I said: 'So what should I fear?' He pointed to his tongue and said: 'Restrain this.'"
يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَقَدْ قَالَ هُشَيْمٌ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مُرْنِي فِي الْإِسْلَامِ بِأَمْرٍ لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَكَ قَالَ قُلْ آمَنْتُ بِاللهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَقِمْ قَالَ قُلْتُ فَمَا أَتَّقِي فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى لِسَانِهِ
[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, tell me a saying that I will not ask anyone else about after you." He said, "Say: 'I believed in Allah and then I remained steadfast.'"
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قُلْ لِي قَوْلًا لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَكَ قَالَ «قُلْ آمَنْتُ بِاللَّهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَقِمْ»
[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, give me a saying in Islam that I do not need to ask anyone after you." He said, "Say, 'I believe in Allah' and then remain upright." I asked, "What should I fear, O Messenger of Allah?" he motioned towards his tongue.
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قُلْ لِي فِي الْإِسْلَامِ قَوْلًا لَا أَسْأَلُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَكَ؟ فَقَالَ قُلْ آمَنْتُ بِاللهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَقِمْ قُلْتُ مَا أَتَّقِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى لِسَانِهِ»
