I or somebody, asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ "Which is the biggest sin in the Sight of Allah?" He said, "That you set up a rival (in worship) to Allah though He Alone created you." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "Then, that you kill your son, being afraid that he may share your meals with you." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "That you commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor." Then the following Verse was revealed to confirm the statement of Messenger of Allah ﷺ: "Those who invoke not with Allah, any other god, nor kill life as Allah has forbidden except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse." (25.68)  

سَأَلْتُ أَوْ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهْوَ خَلَقَكَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىٌّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىٌّ قَالَ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ قَالَ وَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ تَصْدِيقًا لِقَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ {وَالَّذِينَ لاَ يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلاَ يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلاَّ بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَ}  

I asked the Prophet, "What is the greatest sin in the Sight of Allah?" He said, "That you set up a rival unto Allah though He Alone created you." I said, "That is indeed a great sin." Then asked, "What is next?" He said, "To kill your son lest he should share your food with you." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor."  

سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ: أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهْوَ خَلَقَكَ۔» قُلْتُ: إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَعَظِيمٌ! قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ أَىُّ؟ قَالَ: «وَأَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ تَخَافُ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ۔» قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ أَىُّ؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ۔»  

I said 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Which sin is the greatest?" He said, "To set up a rival unto Allah, though He Alone created you." I said, "What next?" He said, "To kill your son lest he should share your food with you." I further asked, "What next?" He said, "To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor." And then Allah revealed as proof of the statement of the Prophet: 'Those who invoke not with Allah any other god)................. (to end of verse)...' (25.68)  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهْوَ خَلَقَكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَىُّ قَالَ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مَعَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَىُّ قَالَ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ وَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَصْدِيقَ قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ {وَالَّذِينَ لاَ يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ}  

I asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ "What is the biggest sin in the sight of Allah?" He said, "To set up rivals unto Allah though He alone created you." I said, "In fact, that is a tremendous sin," and added, "What next?" He said, "To kill your son being afraid that he may share your food with you." I further asked, "What next?" He said, "To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor."  

سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهْوَ خَلَقَكَ قُلْتُ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَعَظِيمٌ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ تَخَافُ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ  

I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: Which sin is the gravest in the eye of Allah? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: That you associate a partner with Allah (despite the fact) that He has created you. He (the reporter) said: I told him (the, Holy Prophet): Verily it is indeed grave. He (the reporter) said: I asked him what the next (gravest sin) was. He (the Holy Prophet) replied: That you kill your child out of fear that he shall join you in food. He (the reporter) said: I asked (him) what the next (gravest sin) was. He (the Holy Prophet) observed: Then (the next gravest sin) is that you commit adultery with the wife of your neighbour.  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَعَظِيمٌ قَالَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىٌّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىٌّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ  

"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, which sin is the most grievous?' He said: 'Setting up a rival to Allah while it is He that has created you.' I said: 'Then what?' He said: 'Killing your child for fear that he may eat with you.' I said: 'Then what?' He said: 'Committing adultery with your neighbor's wife.'"  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ مَاذَا قَالَ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ مَاذَا قَالَ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ  

‘Abd Allaah (bin Masud) said “I asked Apostle of Allaah ﷺ which sin is the gravest?” He replied “That you associate someone with Allaah, while He has created you”. I again asked “Which then?” He replied “That you commit adultery with the wife of your neighbor.” Allaah then revealed the following Qur’anic verse in support of the statement of the Prophet ﷺ “Those who invoke not with Allaah any other god nor slay such life as Allaah has made sacred except for just cause nor commit fornication.”  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىٌّ قَالَ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مَعَكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىٌّ قَالَ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ قَالَ وَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى تَصْدِيقَ قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ { وَالَّذِينَ لاَ يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلاَ يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلاَّ بِالْحَقِّ وَلاَ يَزْنُونَ } الآيَةَ  

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Which sin is the greatest?" The Prophet replied, "To associate partners with Allah while He has created you." The man asked again, "Then what?" The Prophet said, "To kill your child out of fear that he will share your food with you." The man asked once more, "Then what?" The Prophet replied, "To commit adultery with your neighbor's wife." At that moment, Allah revealed in His book the confirmation of what the Prophet had said, "And those who do not invoke with Allah another deity or kill the soul which Allah has forbidden [to be killed], except by right, and do not commit adultery. And whoever should do that will meet a penalty" (Quran 25:68).  

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَكْبَرُ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَيٌّ؟ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَيٌّ؟ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ تَصْدِيقَ ذَلِكَ فِي كِتَابِهِ {وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ} [الفرقان 68] إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثَامًا} [الفرقان 68]  

"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, which sin is the most grievous?' He said: 'Setting up a rival to Allah while it is He that has created you.' I said: 'Then what?' He said: 'Killing your child for fear that he may eat with you.' I said: 'Then what?' He said: 'Committing adultery with your neighbor's wife.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4013)   

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللهِ ﷻ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ ﷻ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مِنْ طَعَامِكَ وَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ مَرَّةً أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّقُلْتُ ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ  

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, which sin is greatest?" He said, "To set up partners with Allah, while He alone created you." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, then what?" He said, "Then to commit adultery with the wife of your neighbor."  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ الْإِثْمِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ  

[Machine] I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , "Which sin is the greatest?" He replied, "To associate partners with Allah, while He has created you, to commit adultery with your neighbor's wife, and to kill your child for fear that he may eat with you or eat your food."  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ وَأَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ وَأَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ أَجْلَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مَعَكَ أَوْ يَأْكُلَ طَعَامَكَ  

I asked the Prophet, "What is the greatest sin in the Sight of Allah?" He said, "That you set up a rival unto Allah though He Alone created you." I said, "That is indeed a great sin." Then asked, "What is next?" He said, "To kill your son lest he should share your food with you." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4477)  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ» قُلْتُ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَعَظِيمٌ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ»

"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, which sin is most grievous?' He said: 'Setting up a rival to Allah while it is He that created you.' I said: 'Then what?' He said: 'Killing your child so that he will not eat with you.' I said: 'Then what?' He said: 'Committing adultery with your neighbor's wife.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4014)  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «ثُمَّ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ «ثُمَّ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ»

[Machine] Abdullah said, "I asked the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , 'O Messenger of Allah, which sin is the greatest?' He said, 'To associate partners with Allah while He has created you.' I asked, 'Then what?' He said, 'To kill your child out of fear of poverty.' I asked, 'Then what?' He said, 'To commit adultery with your neighbor's wife.' Then he recited this verse, 'And those who do not invoke with Allah another deity or kill the soul which Allah has forbidden [to be killed], except by right, and do not commit unlawful sexual intercourse. And whoever should do that will meet a penalty.' (Quran 25:68)"  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ ذَنْبٍ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ» قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ» ثُمَّ قَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ} [الفرقان 68] إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {يَلْقَ أَثَامًا} [الفرقان 68]

[Machine] I heard Ibn Mas'ood say, "I asked the Prophet ﷺ, which sin is the greatest?" He replied, "To associate partners with Allah while He alone created you." I asked further, "Then what?" He said, "To kill your own child out of fear that they would eat with you."  

سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ يَقُولُ سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قُلْتُ أِيُّ الْكَبَائِرِ أَكْبَرُ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيٌّ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تُقْتَلَ وَلَدِكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مَعَكَ  

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, which is the greatest sin?" He said, "That you set up a partner with Allah while He created you." I said, "Then what?" He said, "That you kill your child out of fear that he will eat with you." I said, "Then what?" He said, "That you commit adultery with your neighbor's wife." In another narration by Al-Dhuhli, it is mentioned that you commit adultery with your neighbor's wife. The Hadith is Mursal (broken chain) from Mansur and Al-A'mash, and the Hadith is connected from Wasil from Abu Wael from Abdullah, and there is no mention of 'Amr ibn Shurahbil.  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أِيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مَعَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ الذُّهْلِيِّ أَنْ تَزْنِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ حَدِيثُ مَنْصُورٍ وَالْأَعْمَشِ مَوْصُولٌ وَحَدِيثُ وَاصِلٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ لَيْسَ فِيهِ ذِكْرُ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ  

"أعْظَمُ الذَّنْبِ عند الله أن تجْعَلَ لله نِدًّا، وهو خَلَقَكَ، ثم أن تقتلَ ولدَكَ مَخافَة أن يَطْعمَ مَعَك، ثم أن تُزَانِي حَليلةَ جارِك".  

"أَنْ تَجْعَلَ للَّه نِدًا وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَىّ؟ قال: أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَطعَمَ مَعَكَ" .
