[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whatever I have forbidden you from, refrain from it. And whatever I have commanded you to do, do it to the best of your ability."

ابن حبّان:٢٠ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي السَّرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ قَالَ هَذَا مَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ وَمَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِالْأَمْرِ فَأْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ»
