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.

قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: {الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ} [المائدة: 3]

nasai-kubra:11073Isḥāq b. Manṣūr > ʿAbd al-Raḥman > Muʿāwiyah b. Ṣāliḥ > Abū al-Zāhiriyyah > Jubayr b. Nufayr

[Machine] Indeed, it is the last surah that was revealed. So whatever you find in it as permissible, consider it permissible. And whatever you find in it as forbidden, consider it forbidden. And I asked it about the character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and it said, "The Quran."  

الكبرى للنسائي:١١٠٧٣أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ لِي هَلْ تَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ الْمَائِدَةِ؟ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَتْ

«أَمَا إِنَّهَا» آخِرُ سُورَةٍ نَزَلَتْ فَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ فِيهَا مِنْ حَلَالٍ فَاسْتَحِلُّوهُ وَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ فِيهَا مِنْ حَرَامٍ فَحَرِّمُوهُ وَسَأَلْتُهَا عَنْ خُلِقِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتِ الْقُرْآنُ

[Machine] "It is the last chapter that was revealed, so whatever you find in it as lawful, consider it lawful, and whatever you find in it as prohibited, consider it prohibited. And I asked her about the character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so she replied, 'The Quran.'"

[Machine] To me, O Jubeir, do you read the table? So I said, yes. She said, "Indeed, it is the last chapter that was revealed. So whatever you find in it as permissible, then consider it permissible, and whatever you find as forbidden, then consider it forbidden."  

الحاكم:٣٢١٠حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ قَالَ قُرِئَ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَكَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ قَالَ حَجَجْتُ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ

لِي يَا جُبَيْرُ تَقْرَأُ الْمَائِدَةَ؟ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَتْ «أَمَا إِنَّهَا آخِرُ سُورَةٍ نَزَلَتْ فَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ فِيهَا مِنْ حَلَالٍ فَاسْتَحِلُّوهُ وَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ مِنْ حَرَامٍ فَحَرِّمُوهُ»  

هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ الشَّيْخَيْنِ وَلَمْ يُخْرِجَاهُ على شرط البخاري ومسلم

[Machine] Indeed, it is the last chapter that was revealed, so whatever you find in it to be permissible, then deem it as such, and whatever you find in it to be forbidden, then make it prohibited.  

البيهقي:١٣٩٧٨أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ قَالَ حَجَجْتُ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ ؓ فَقَالَتْ لِي يَا جُبَيْرُ هَلْ تَقْرَأُ الْمَائِدَةَ؟ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَقَالَتْ

أَمَا إِنَّهَا آخِرُ سُورَةٍ نَزَلَتْ فَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ فِيهَا مِنْ حَلَالٍ فَاسْتَحِلُّوهُ وَمَا وَجَدْتُمْ فِيهَا مِنْ حَرَامٍ فَحَرِّمُوهُ
