[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»  

"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".  

"عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْمُنْتَفَق قَالَ: وُصِفَ لِى رَسُولُ الله ﷺ فَطَلَبْتُهُ بِمَكَّةَ، فَقِيلَ: هَوَ بِمِنًى أَوْ بِعَرَفَات، فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَيْه فَأَخَذْتُ بِخِطَامِ رَاحِلَتِهِ، فَقُلتُ: شَيْئَان أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْهُمَا: مَا يُنْجِينِى مِنَ النَّارِ وَيُدْخلُنِى الْجَنَّة؟ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ: لَئِن كُنْتَ أَوْجَزْتَ الْمَسَأَلَةَ، لَقَدْ أَعْظَمْتَ وَطَوَّلْتَ، اعْبُد الله وَلَا تُشْرِكْ بِهِ شَيْئًا، وَأَقِم الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ، وَأَدِّ الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ، وَصُمْ رَمَضَانَ، وَمَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ يَفْعَلهُ بِكَ النَّاسُ فَافْعَلهُ بِهِمْ، وَمَا تَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَأتِى إِلَيْكَ النَّاسُ فَذَرِ النَّاسَ مِنْهُ. خَلّ سَبِيلَ الرَّاحِلَة".
