[Machine] "I went to the Prophet ﷺ at Arafah, and I took hold of the reins or bridle of his camel. I pushed it away, and he said, 'Leave it.' Then he raised his head towards the sky and said, 'If you were to deliver the most concise speech, you would have indeed delivered the most perfect and longest act of worship by not associating anything with Allah, establishing prayer, giving charity, performing Hajj, fasting during Ramadan, and treating others the way you want them to treat you, and avoiding what you dislike for yourself. Leave people alone, and let go of the reins of the camel.'"  

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِعَرَفَةَ فَأَخَذْتُ بِزِمَامِ نَاقَتِهِ أَوْ خِطَامِهَا فَدَفَعْتُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ دَعُوهُ فَأَرَبٌ مَا جَاءَ بِهِ فَقُلْتُ نَبِّئْنِي بِعَمَلٍ يُقَرِّبُنِي مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَيُبَاعِدُنِي مِنَ النَّارِ قَالَ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ أَوْجَزْتَ فِي الْخُطْبَةِ لَقَدْ أَعْظَمْتَ وَأَطْوَلْتَ تَعْبُدُ اللهَ لَا تُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَتُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ وَتَحُجُّ الْبَيْتَ وَتَصُومُ رَمَضَانَ وَتَأْتِي إِلَى النَّاسِ مَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ يَأْتُوهُ إِلَيْكَ وَمَا كَرِهْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ فَدَعِ النَّاسَ مِنْهُ خَلِّ عَنْ زِمَامِ النَّاقَةِ  

[Machine] I said to my companion, "If we enter the mosque and its location is on the date-palm owners, then there is a man from the Qays tribe called Ibn Al-Muntafiq, and he describes the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and described my appearance. So I searched for him in Mecca and it was said to me that he is in Mina. So I searched for him in Mina and it was said to me that he is in 'Arafat. So I reached him and I crowded around him. It was said to me, 'Go to him through the way of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' So I squeezed through until I reached him. I held the reins of the Messenger of Allah's ﷺ mount, or he said, 'I held its bridle.' Muhammad told the story in this way until our camels' necks crossed. He then said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ does not worry about me or the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has not changed me.' He said, 'I said, "I have two questions for you. What will save me from the Fire? And what will admit me to Paradise?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ looked at the sky, then lowered his head and faced me. He said, "If you do little, you will be successful and blessed. Worship Allah alone and do not associate anything with Him. Establish the obligatory prayers, pay the obligatory Zakah, fast during Ramadan, and whatever you love for people to do for you, do it for them. And whatever you dislike for people to do to you, then don't do it to them. Then he said, "Leave the matter of the travelers."  

قُلْتُ لِصَاحِبٍ لِي لَوْ دَخَلْنَا الْمَسْجِدَ وَمَوْضِعُهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي أَصْحَابِ التَّمْرِ فَإِذَا فِيهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قَيْسٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ ابْنُ الْمُنْتَفِقِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ وُصِفَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَحُلِّيَ فَطَلَبْتُهُ بِمِكة فَقِيلَ لِي هُوَ بِمنى فطلبتُه بمنىّ فقيل لي هو بعَرَفات فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَزَاحَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقِيلَ لِي إِلَيْكَ عَنْ طَرِيقِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ دَعُوا الرَّجُلَ أَرِبَ مَا لَهُ قَالَ فَزَاحَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى خَلَصْتُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَأَخَذْتُ بِخِطَامِ رَاحِلَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْ قَالَ زِمَامِهَا هَكَذَا حَدَّثَ مُحَمَّدٌ حَتَّى اخْتَلَفَتْ أَعْنَاقُ رَاحِلَتَيْنَا قَالَ فَمَا يَزَعُنِي رَسُولُ اللهِﷺ أَوْ قَالَ مَا غَيَّرَ عَلَيَّ هَكَذَا حَدَّثَ مُحَمَّدٌ قَالَ قُلْتُ ثِنْتَانِ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْهُمَا مَا يُنَجِّينِي مِنَ النَّارِ؟ وَمَا يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ؟ قَالَ فَنَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ نَكَسَ رَأْسَهُ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيَّ بِوَجْهِهِ قَالَ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ أَوْجَزْتَ فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ لَقَدْ أَعْظَمْتَ وَأَطْوَلْتَ فَاعْقِلْ عَنِّي إِذًا اعْبُدِ اللهَ لَا تُشْرِكْ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَأَدِّ الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ وَصُمْ رَمَضَانَ وَمَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهُ بِكَ النَّاسُ فَافْعَلْهُ بِهِمْ وَمَا تَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِلَيْكَ النَّاسُ فَذَرِ النَّاسَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ خَلِّ سَبِيلَ الرَّاحِلَةِ  

[Machine] I arrived in Kufa, and I had a companion with me to fetch sandals from there. So, we went to the market, and it hadn't opened yet. So, I said to my companion, "If we entered the mosque, and the mosque was then filled with the people of Tamar, so we entered. Then, a man from the tribe of Qays, called Ibn al-Muntafiq, came and I heard him say that he was described by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he was given a high rank. So, I asked about him in Makkah, and I was told he is in Mina. So, I asked about him in Mina and I was told he is in Arafat. So, I reached him while he was in a group of his companions, and they told me to step aside from the path of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Leave the man. What is wrong with him?' So, I approached him until I took hold of his camel's reins or bridle. So, I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I ask you about what will save me from the Hellfire and what will bring me to Paradise.' So, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his head towards the sky, then he lowered it, and then he faced me and said, 'If you can focus on this, then you have asked about something great and long. Guard the worship of Allah alone and do not associate anything with Him. Establish the obligatory prayers, pay the prescribed Zakah, fast in Ramadan, and do what you wish for others to do unto you. And refrain from doing what you dislike for others to do to you. Leave people alone in their affairs and let go of any concern for what people say or do to your belongings. Hamzah said, 'As for Hajj, he performed it wherever he was asked."  

قَدِمْتُ الْكُوفَةَ وَصَاحِبٌ لِي لِنَجْلِبَ مِنْهَا نِعَالًا فَغَدَوْنَا إِلَى السُّوقِ وَلَمْ يَقُمْ بَعْدُ فَقُلْتُ لِصَاحِبِي لَوْ دَخَلْنَا الْمَسْجِدَ وَالْمَسْجِدُ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي أَصْحَابِ التَّمْرِ فَدَخَلْنَا فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ قَيْسٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ ابْنُ الْمُنْتَفِقِ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ وُصِفَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَجُلِّيَ لِي فَطَلَبْتُهُ بِمَكَّةَ فَقِيلَ لِي هُوَ بِمِنًى وَطَلَبْتُهُ بِمِنًى فَقِيلَ لِي هُوَ بِعَرَفَاتٍ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ فِي رَكِبٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقِيلَ لِي تَنَحَّ عَنْ طَرِيقِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «دَعُوا الرَّجُلَ أَرِبَ مَا لَهُ؟» فَدَنَوْتُ حَتَّى أَخَذْتُ بِزِمَامِ نَاقَتِهِ أَوْ بِخِطَامِهَا فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عَمَّا يُنَجِّينِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَعَمَّا يُبَلِّغُنِي الْجَنَّةَ فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ نَكَسَ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلِيَّ بِوَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ أَوْجَزْتَ الْمَسْأَلَةَ لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَ عَنْ عَظِيمٍ طَوِيلٍ فَاحْفَظْ عَنِّي اعْبُدِ اللهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكْ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَأَدِّ الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ وَصُمْ رَمَضَانَ وَمَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهُ النَّاسُ بِكَ فَافْعَلْهُ بِهِمْ وَمَا تَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهُ النَّاسُ بِكَ فَذَرِ النَّاسَ مِنْهُ خَلِّ سَبِيلَ النَّاقَةِ أَوِ الرَّاحِلَةِ قَالَ هَمَّامٌ «وَأَمَّا الْحَجُّ فَقَدْ حَجَّ حَيْثُ سَأَلَهُ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , they said, "At Arafah, I approached him (the Messenger of Allah). I went near him until my camel's neck was close to his camel's neck. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, teach me what will save me from the punishment of Allah and admit me into His Paradise.' He said, 'Worship Allah alone and do not associate anything with Him. Establish the prescribed prayers, give the obligatory charity, perform the pilgrimage and Umrah. I also think he said, 'Observe fasting in Ramadan and see what actions you prefer people to come to you with, so do those with them, and what actions you do not like people to come to you with, then refrain from those.'" "Ibn 'Awn (one of the narrators) was uncertain in the chain of narration for this hadith and he did not accurately report it from Muhammad bin Juhadah, but Hammam accurately reported it."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا بِعَرَفَةَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَذَهَبْتُ أَدْنُو مِنْهُ حَتَّى اجْتَازَ عُنُقُ رَاحِلَتِي عُنُقَ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَلِّمْنِي بِمَا يُنَجِّينِي مِنْ عَذَابِ اللهِ وَيُدْخِلُنِي جَنَّتَهُ فَقَالَ «اعْبُدِ اللهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكْ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَأَدِّ الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ وَحِجَّ وَاعْتَمِرْ» وَأَظُنُّهُ قَالَ «وَصُمْ رَمَضَانَ وَانْظُرْ مَا تُحِبُّ لِلنَّاسِ أَنْ يَأْتُوهُ إِلَيْكَ فَافْعَلْهُ بِهِمْ وَمَا تَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَأْتُوهُ إِلَيْكَ فَذَرْهُمْ مِنْهُ» «اضْطَرَبَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ فِي إِسْنَادِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَلَمْ يَضْبِطْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُحَادَةَ وَضَبَطَهُ هَمَّامٌ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , they said at Arafat, "So I came to him and I approached him until my camel's neck passed his camel's neck. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, teach me what will save me from the punishment of Allah and admit me into His Paradise.' He said, 'Worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him, establish the obligatory prayers, give the prescribed charity, perform Hajj and Umrah, and fast during Ramadan. Also, look at what you desire for people to bring to you and do it for them, and what you dislike for them to bring to you, refrain from doing it to them.'" "Ibn Awn was uncertain in the chain of narration of this Hadith, and it was authenticated by Hammam."

"عَن الْمُغيرَة بْن شُعْبَةَ (*) بْنِ الأَخْرِم، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَوْ عَنْ عَمِّهِ: قَالَ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ، فَقِيلَ لى: هُوَ بِعَرَفَةَ، فَاسْتَقْبَلْتُهُ، فَأَخَذْتُ بزِمَامِ النَّاقةِ، فَصَاحَ بى أُنَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابهِ فَقَالَ: دَعُوهُ قَارَبَ مَا جَاءَ بهِ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ! دُلَّنى عَلَى عَمَلٍ يُقَرِّبُنِى مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ، وَيُبَاعِدُنِى مِنَ النَّارِ، فَقالَ: إِنْ كُنْتَ أَوْجَزْتَ فَى الْخُطْبَةِ فَقَدْ أَعْظَمْتَ وَأَطْوَلْتَ، فَسَكَتَ سَاعَةً، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّماء، فَنَظَرَ فَقالَ: تَعْبُدُ الله وَلا تُشْرِكْ به شَيْئًا، وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ، وَتُؤْتِى الزَّكَاةَ، وَتَصُومُ رَمَضَانَ، وَتُحِبُّ لِلنَّاسِ مَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ يَأتُوا إِلَيكَ، وَمَا كَرِهْتَ أَنْ يَأتُوا إِلَيْكَ فَدَع النَّاسَ مِنْهُ خَلِّ عَنْ زِمامِ النَّاقَةِ".
