I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: May Allah brighten a man who hears a tradition from us, gets it by heart and passes it on to others. Many a bearer of knowledge conveys it to one who is more versed than he is; and many a bearer of knowledge is not versed in it.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَحَفِظَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ

from his father who said: "Zaid bin Thabit left to go to Marwan during the middle of the day. We said: 'He did not send for him [during] this hour except to ask him about something.' So we got up to ask him, and he said: 'Yes, he asked us about something we heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "May Allah gladden a man who hears a Hadith from us, so he memorizes it until he conveys it to someone else. Perhaps he carries Fiqh to one who is more understanding than him, and perhaps the one who carries the Fiqh is not a Faqih."

خَرَجَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ مَرْوَانَ نِصْفَ النَّهَارِ قُلْنَا مَا بَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ فِي هَذِهِ السَّاعَةِ إِلاَّ لِشَيْءٍ سَأَلَهُ عَنْهُ فَقُمْنَا فَسَأَلْنَاهُ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ سَأَلَنَا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ سَمِعْنَاهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَحَفِظَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ غَيْرَهُ فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ وَجُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ وَأَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ وَأَنَسٍ

from the Prophet ﷺ who said: "May Allah brighten ˹the face of˺ a man who hears a saying of mine, so he internalizes it, remembers it, and conveys it ˹to others˺. Perhaps he carries ˹its˺ understanding to the one who has more understanding than him. There are three ˹qualities˺ that will not cause rancor in the heart of a Muslim toward ˹others˺: (1) sincerity in the deeds for ˹the sake of˺ Allah, (2) giving sincere advice to the leaders / religious authority of the Muslims, and (3) staying involved within their community for their dua guards them from behind them."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَوَعَاهَا وَحَفِظَهَا وَبَلَّغَهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلاَثٌ لاَ يُغَلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُسْلِمٍ: (١) إِخْلاَصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلَّهِ، (٢) وَمُنَاصَحَةُ أَئِمَّةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، (٣) وَلُزُومِ جَمَاعَتِهِمْ، فَإِنَّ الدَّعْوَةَ تُحِيطُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ».

The Messenger of Allah said: "May Allah cause his face to shine, the man who hears what I say and conveys it (to others). There are those who have knowledge but no understanding, and there may be those who convey knowledge to those who have more understanding of it than they do.' " (One of the narrators) 'Ali bin Muhammed added to it: "There are three things because of which hatred does not enter the heart of a Muslim: Sincerity in doing an action for the sake of Allah; being sincere towards the rulers of the Muslims; and adhering to the Jama'ah (main body of the Muslims."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَبَلَّغَهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ غَيْرِ فَقِيهٍ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ زَادَ فِيهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ثَلاَثٌ لاَ يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ إِخْلاَصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلَّهِ وَالنُّصْحُ لأَئِمَّةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَلُزُومُ جَمَاعَتِهِمْ

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up in Khaif in Mina, and said: ‘May Allah make his face shine, the man who hears my words and conveys them. It may be that the bearer of knowledge does not understand it, and it may be that he takes it to one who will understand it more than he does. There are three things in which the heart of the believer does not betray: sincerity of action for the sake of Allah, offering sincere advice to the rulers of the Muslims, and adhering to the Jama’ah (main body of the Muslims). Their supplication is answered (i.e. encompassing every good, and all of the people).”

قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالْخَيْفِ مِنْ مِنًى فَقَالَ نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَبَلَّغَهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ غَيْرُ فَقِيهٍ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلاَثٌ لاَ يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُؤْمِنٍ إِخْلاَصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلَّهِ وَالنَّصِيحَةُ لِوُلاَةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَلُزُومُ جَمَاعَتِهِمْ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'May Allah cause to flourish a slave (of His) who hears my words and understands them, then he conveys them from me. There are those who have knowledge but no understanding, and there may be those who convey knowledge to those who may have more understanding of it than they do.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 236)

قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالْخَيْفِ مِنْ مِنًى فَقَالَ «نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ عَبْدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَوَعَاهَا ثُمَّ أَدَّاهَا إِلَى مَنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَا فِقْهَ لَهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ»

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up in Khaif in Mina, and said: ‘May Allah make his face shine, the man who hears my words and conveys them. It may be that the bearer of knowledge does not understand it, and it may be that he takes it to one who will understand it more than he does.

قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِالْخَيْفِ مِنْ مِنًى فَقَالَ نَضَّرَ اللهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَوَعَاهَا ثُمَّ أَدَّاهَا إِلَى مَنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَا فِقْهَ لَهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِمْ قَلْبُ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ وَالنَّصِيحَةُ لِوَلِيِّ الْأَمْرِ وَلُزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تَكُونُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while giving a sermon to the people, saying, "May Allah brighten the face of a servant who hears my speech, memorizes it, and conveys it to someone who has not heard it. Perhaps there may be a person who understands it better than the one who conveys it. There are three things that do not put a strain on the believer's heart: sincerity of action, obedience to those in authority, and sticking to the community. For their call comes from behind them (i.e., their leaders), and Ibn Ishaq said: 'Amr ibn Abi Amr, the freed slave of Al-Muttalib, narrated to me from Abdul Rahman ibn Al-Huwairith, from Muhammad ibn Jubayr ibn Muta'im, from his father, a narration similar to Ibn Shihab's narration, with no addition or omission.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ بِالْخَيْفِ نَضَّرَ اللهُ عَبْدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَوَعَاهَا ثُمَّ أَدَّاهَا إلِى مَنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَا فِقْهَ لَهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ وَطَاعَةُ ذَوِي الْأَمْرِ وَلُزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تَكُونُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ وَعَنْ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو مَوْلَى الْمُطَّلِبِ عَنْعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ لَمْ يَزِدْ وَلَمْ يَنْقُصْ

[AI] I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he said, "May Allah brighten the face of a person who hears from us a hadith and memorizes it until he conveys it to others, for many carriers of knowledge are not knowledgeable themselves, and many carriers of knowledge pass it on to others who are more knowledgeable than them. There are three qualities that a Muslim's heart should never be deprived of: sincerity in actions for the sake of Allah, advising the rulers, and remaining in the congregation. Indeed, their supplication encompasses those behind them. He also said, "Whoever's main concern is the Hereafter, Allah will bring together his affairs, make contentment in his heart, and the world will come to him while he is in need. And whoever's intention is the world, Allah will scatter his affairs, make poverty between his eyes, and he will only receive from the world what was destined for him." We also asked about the middle prayer, which is the Dhuhr prayer.

عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ نَضَّرَ اللهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَحَفِظَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ غَيْرَهُ فَإِنَّهُ رُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثُ خِصَالٍ لَا يَغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُسْلِمٍ أَبَدًا إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلَّهِ وَمُنَاصَحَةُ وُلَاةِ الْأَمْرِ وَلُزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ وَقَالَ مَنْ كَانَ هَمُّهُ الْآخِرَةَ جَمَعَ اللهُ شَمْلَهُ وَجَعَلَ غِنَاهُ فِي قَلْبِهِ وَأَتَتْهُ الدُّنْيَا وَهِيَ رَاغِمَةٌ وَمَنْ كَانَتْ نِيَّتُهُ الدُّنْيَا فَرَّقَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ ضَيْعَتَهُ وَجَعَلَ فَقْرَهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ وَلَمْ يَأْتِهِ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا مَا كُتِبَ لَهُ وَسَأَلَنَا عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى وَهِيَ الظُّهْرُ

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up in Khaif in Mina, and said: ‘May Allah make his face shine, the man who hears my words and conveys them.

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, while he was in Khayf from Mina: "May Allah have mercy on a servant who hears my words, memorizes them, and conveys them to those who have not heard them. It is possible that the one who conveys knowledge may be more knowledgeable than the one receiving it. There are three qualities that the heart of a believer should not harbor: insincerity in actions, giving advice to the rulers, and abandoning the Muslim community. Their supplications will come from behind them." This is also narrated by a group of companions including Umar, Uthman, Ali, Abdullah bin Mas'ud, Muadh bin Jabal, Ibn Umar, Ibn Abbas, Abu Huraira, Anas, and others. The narration of Nu'man bin Bashir is mentioned as a condition for the authenticity of this hadith.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَهُوَ بِالْخَيْفِ مِنْ مِنًى رَحِمَ اللَّهُ عَبْدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَوَعَاهَا ثُمَّ أَدَّاهَا إِلَى مَنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَا فِقْهَ لَهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ وَمُنَاصَحَةُ ذَوِي الْأَمْرِ وَلُزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تَكُونُ مِنٍ وَرَائِهِمْ « وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ جَمَاعَةٍ مِنَ الصَّحَابَةِ مِنْهُمْ عُمَرُ وَعُثْمَانُ وَعَلِيٌّ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَمُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ وَابْنُ عُمَرَ وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَنَسٌ وَغَيْرُهُمْ عِدَّةٌ» وَحَدِيثُ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ مِنْ شَرْطِ الصَّحِيحِ

[AI] I said, "I was not sent with this hour except for one reason. I asked him about it, and he said, 'We asked about matters we heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'May Allah brighten the face of a person who hears a Hadith from us and transmits it to others who have greater understanding than him. And may Allah darken the face of a person who hears a Hadith from us and transmits it to others who have lesser understanding than him. There are three things which do not cause a Muslim's heart to deviate: sincerity of action for Allah, sincere advice to the leaders, and the adherence to the Jama'ah. Their supplications surround those who come after them. Whoever's intention is for this world, Allah will scatter his affairs and make poverty appear before his eyes. And he will not receive from this world except what has been decreed for him. And whoever's intention is for the Hereafter, Allah will bring his affairs together and make richness settle in his heart. And this world will come to him despite being reluctant.'"

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ بِالْخَيْفِ خَيْفِ مِنًى نَضَّرَ اللهُ عَبْدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَحَفِظَها وَوَعَاهَا وَبَلَّغَهَا مَنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَا فِقْهَ لَهُ وَرَبُّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُؤْمِنٍ إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلَّهِ وَالنَّصِيحَةُ لِأَئِمَّةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَلُزُومُ جَمَاعَتِهِمْ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مَنْ وَرَاءَهُمْ

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the place of Khayf in Mina saying, "May Allah make a servant of His who hears my speech, memorizes it, and then conveys it to those who did not hear it. Perhaps the carrier of knowledge does not possess knowledge himself, and perhaps the carrier of knowledge gives it to someone who is more knowledgeable than him. There are three things that a believer's heart should not be indifferent to: sincerity in actions for the sake of Allah, obedience to those in authority, and sticking to the congregation. Indeed, their supplication is made on behalf of those who are behind them."

(Using translation from Ibn Mājah 236)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «رَحِمَ اللهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِي فَبَلَّغَهَا فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ غَيْرِ فَقِيهٍ وَرَبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed with us in the Mosque of Al-Khayf, and he said, "There are three things that do not cause the heart of a believer to be biased: sincerity of actions, advising the Muslim leaders, and adhering to their congregation. For their supplication encompasses those behind them."

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْخَيْفِ فَقَالَ ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُؤْمِنٍ إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ وَالنُّصْحُ لِأَئِمَّةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَلُزُومُ جَمَاعَتِهِمْ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: May Allah brighten a man who hears a tradition from us, gets it by heart and passes it on to others. Many a bearer of knowledge conveys it to one who is more versed than he is; and many a bearer of knowledge is not versed in it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3660)

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «نَضَّرَ اللهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا حَفِظَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ غَيْرَهُ فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ»

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up in Khaif in Mina, and said: ‘May Allah make his face shine, the man who hears my words and conveys them. It may be that the bearer of knowledge does not understand it, and it may be that he takes it to one who will understand it more than he does. There are three things in which the heart of the believer does not betray: sincerity of action for the sake of Allah, offering sincere advice to the rulers of the Muslims, and adhering to the Jama’ah (main body of the Muslims). Their supplication is answered (i.e. encompassing every good, and all of the people).” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3056)

عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؛ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَحَفِظَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ غَيْرَهُ؛ فَإِنَّهُ رُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثُ خِصَالٍ لَا يُغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُسْلِمٍ أَبَدًا إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلَّهِ ﷻ وَمُنَاصَحَةُ وُلَاةِ الْأَمْرِ وَلُزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ؛ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحُيطُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ

("ثَلَاثٌ لَا يِغلُّ عَلَيْهنَّ قلْبُ مُسْلِمٍ: إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ للَّه، وَمُنَاصَحةُ أَئمةِ المسلمين، ولُزُومُ جماعَتِهِمْ، فَإِنَّ الدُّعاءَ يحيطُ من وَرائهم".

"رَحِمَ اللَّهُ عبْدًا سَمِع مقَالَتِى فَحفِظَها، فرُّبَّ حامِل فِقْه غيرِ فَقِيه، ورُبَّ حامِل فقْه إِلَى منْ هُو أَفْقَهُ منْهُ، ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُغِلُّ علَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُؤْمِنٍ: إِخَلَاصُ الْعملِ للَّهِ، ومُنَاصحةُ وُلَاةِ الْمُسْلِمِين ولُزُومُ جَماعةِ الْمُسْلِمِين".

"رَحِم اللَّهُ امْرءًا سَمِعَ مِنِّى حَديثًا، فَحَفِظَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ غَيْرَهُ، فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فقْه إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ منْهُ، ورُبَّ حامِلِ فِقْه لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ ثَلَاثُ خِصَال لَا يُغلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلبُ مُسلِمٍ، إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلَ للَّهِ، ومُناصَحَةُ وَلاةِ الأَمْر، وَلزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ؛ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تحيط مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ".

"May Allah brighten ˹the face˺ of a man who hears a saying of mine and he does not add to it. There are three ˹qualities˺ that will not cause rancor in the heart of a Muslim ˹toward others˺: (1) sincerity in the deeds for ˹the sake of˺ Allah, (2) giving sincere advice to the leaders / religious authority of the Muslims, and (3) staying involved within their community for the call is protected from behind them."

"نَضَّرَ الله مَنْ سَمِعَ قَوْلِي ثُمَّ لَمْ يَزِدْ فِيهِ، ثَلاثٌ لا يُغَلُّ عليهن قَلْبُ امْرِيءٍ مُسْلِمٍ: إخلاصُ العملِ لله، ومُنَاصَحتهُ ولاةِ الأَمْرِ، ولزومُ جماعةِ المُسْلِمِين، فَإِنَّ دعوتَهم تُحيطُ من وَرَاءَهُمْ".

"نَضَّرَ الله عَبْدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالتِي فَوعَاهَا، وَحَفِظَهَا ثُمَّ أدَّاها إِلى مَنْ

يَسْمَعُها، فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ غَير فَقِيهٍ إِلى مَنْ هُوَ أَفقهُ منه، ثَلاثٌ لا يُغَلُّ عَلَيهِنَّ قَلبُ امْريء مُسْلِمٍ: إخلاصُ العَمَلِ لله، والنصحُ لأئمةِ المُسْلِمين، ولزومُ جماعتِهم، فَإنَّ دعوتَهم تَحُوط مِن ورائهم".

"نَضَّرَ الله عَبدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالتي فَحَمَلَهَا إِلى غَيرِه، فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَي مَنْ هُو أَفْقَهُ مِنهُ، وَرُبَّ حامِلِ فِقْه لَيسَ بِفَقِيه، ثَلاثٌ لا يُغلُّ عَليهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُسلِم: إِخلَاصُ العَمل لله، والنصيحةُ للأَئمة، وَلُزومُ الجماعةِ، فَإِنَّ دَعوتهم تُحيط مِنْ وَرائِهمْ، وَمنْ كَانت الدُّنيا هَمَّه نَزَعَ الله الْغِنَىَ مِنْ قَلْبهِ، وَجَعَل فَقْرَه بين عَينَيه، وشَتَّت الله عَلَيه ضَيعَتَه، وَلَمْ يأتِه من الدُّنيا إلا ما رُزِق، وَمَن كَانت الآخرةُ همَّه جَعَلَ الله الغِنَى في قلْبِه، وَنَزَعَ فَقْرَهُ مِنْ بَينِ عَينَيهِ، وكَفَّ عليهِ ضَيعَتَه وَأَتَتْه الدُّنيا وَهِيَ راغِمةٌ".

"نَضَّر الله عبدًا سَمِعَ كَلامِي فَلَمْ يَزِد فِيه، فَرُبَّ حامِلِ كَلِمَةٍ إِلي مَنْ هُوَ أَوعَى لَها منْهُ، ثَلاثٌ لا يُغل عَليهن قلبُ مؤمِن: إِخلاصُ العَملِ لله، وَالْمُنَاصَحَةُ لِوُلاةِ الأمْر، والاعتصامُ بجماعَةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فَإنَّ دعوتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ".

"نَضَّر الله وَجْهَ عَبْدٍ سَمِعَ مَقَالتِي فَحَمَلَهَا، فَرُبَّ حامِلِ فِقهٍ غَير فَقِيهٍ، وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهِ إِلى مَنْ هُوَ أفقه منه، ثلاثَ لا يُغَلُّ عَلَيهِنَّ قلبُ مؤمِن: إِخلاصُ العَمَلِ لله، وَمُنَاصَحَةُ وُلاةِ الأَمْرِ، وَلُزومُ جَمَاعَةِ الْمُسْلِمِينِ، فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيط مِنْ وَرَائِهمْ".

"نَضَّر الله عَبدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالتِي فَوَعَاهَا وَأَدَّاهَا إِلى مَنْ يَسْمَعُها، فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لا فقه له، وَرَبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُو أَفْقَهُ منهُ، ثلاثٌ لا يُغَلُّ عَلَيهِنَّ قَلَبُ مؤمِنٍ: إِخلَاصُ العَمَلِ لله، والطَّاعَةُ لِذَوي الأمرِ، ولزومُ جَمَاعَةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فإِن دَعوَتَهُمْ تُحِيط مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ".

"نَضَّر الله عَبدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالتِي ثُمَّ وَعَاهَا، ثُمَّ حَفِظَهَا، فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ غَير فقيه، وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْه إِلى مَن هُوَ أَفقَه منهُ، ثلاثٌ لا يُغَلُّ عَلَيهِنَّ قَلبُ مُؤْمِن: إِخلاصُ العَمَلِ لله، ومناصَحَةُ ولاة الأمُورِ، والاعتصامُ بِجَمَاعةِ الْمُسْلِمِين، فإِنَّ دُعَاءهُمْ يُحيطُ مِن وَرَائِهِمْ".

[AI] Here is the translated passage in English:

"On the authority of Ubayy ibn Ka'b, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'There are three things upon which the heart of a Muslim does not harbor any malice: sincerity in actions for Allah, adherence to the community (of Muslims), and offering sincere advice to those in authority.' He also said: 'Their supplication comes from behind them.'"

Note: The phrase (*) "يَأتِى مِنْ وَرَائهِ" can have various interpretations based on context; it often means "their prayers follow them" or "their supplications support them" depending on the broader context of the hadith.

"عَنْ أُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ ثلاث لا يُغلُّ علَيْهِنَّ صَدْرُ مُسْلِمٍ: إِخْلاَصُ الْعَمَلِ لله، وَلُزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ، وَمُنَاصَحَةُ وُلاَةِ الأَمْرِ، قَالَ: قَالَ: دُعَاؤُهُمْ يَأتِى (*) مِنْ وَرَائهِ".

"عَنْ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ : رَحِمَ الله عَبْدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِى فَحَفِظَهَا، فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ غَيْرِ فَقيهٍ، وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ، (لاَ يخلى (*)) عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُؤْمِنٍ: إِخْلاَصُ الْعَمَلِ للهِ، وَمُنَاصَحَةُ وُلاَةِ الْمُسْلِميِنَ، وَلُزُومُ جَمَاعَتِهِمْ".

"عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ الله ﷺ فِى مَسْجِدِ الحَنِيف بِمِنًى، فَقَالَ: نَضَّرَ الله عَبدًا سَمِعَ مَقَالَتِى فَعَمِلَ بِهَا حتَّى يُحَدِّثَ بِهَا أخَاهُ، ثَلاثٌ لاَ يغلَّ عَلَيْهِن قَلبُ مُسْلِمٍ: إِخْلاَصُ العَمَلِ لله، وَمُنَاصحَةُ ولاَةِ الأمْرِ، وَلُزُومُ جَمَاعَةِ المُسْلِمِينَ، فَإِن دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مَنْ وَرَاءَهُم".

"عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نَضَّرَ اللهُ عَبْدًا سَمِعَ كَلَامِى ثُمَّ لَمْ يَزِدْ فِيهِ، رُبَّ حَامِلِ كلِمَةٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَوْعَى لَهَا مِنْهُ، ثَلاثٌ لا يُضَلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُؤْمِنٍ: الإِخْلاصُ للهِ، وَالْمُنَاصَحَةُ لِوُلاةِ الأَمْرِ، وَالاعْتِصَامُ بِجَمَاعَةِ الْمُسْلِمينَ، فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مِنْ وَرائِهِمْ".

"عَنْ أَبِى قُرْصَافَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ نَضَّرَ الله تَعَالَى (أمرأ سمع) () سَامِعَ مَقَالتى فَحَفِظَهَا فَرُبَّمَا (فَرُبَّ) حَامِل عِلمٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ منه، ثَلاثٌ لَا يَغِلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ الْقَلبُ: إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ لله، ومنا صحة الْولَاة، وَلُزومُ الْجَمَاعة () ".

"عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَ فِي خُطْبتِه: نَضَّرَ اللهُ عَبْدًا سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَسمِعَهُ فحَفظَهُ حَتَّى يبلِّغَه غْيَرهُ، فَرُبَّ حامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفقِيهٍ يَحْمِلُه إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أفْقَهُ مِنْهُ، ثَلاثٌ لا يضلُّ عَنْهُنَّ قلْبُ امْرئ مُسلِمٍ: إخلاص فِي الدعْوَةِ، ولَزُومٌ فِي الجَمَاعَةِ، والدَّعْوَةُ لِولَاةِ الأَمْرِ، فإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُم تُحِيطُ مَنْ وَرَاءَهُمْ مَنْ كَانْتَ نِيَّتُهُ الدُّنْيَا شَتَّتَ اللهُ أَمْرَهُ، وَجَعَلَ فَقْرَهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ، وَلَمْ يَأتِهِ مِنْهَا إِلا مَا قدَّرَ له، وَمَنْ كَانتْ الآخرةُ نَيَّتَه جَمَعَ اللهُ - تَعَالَى- شَمْلهُ، وجَعلَ غِنَاهُ فِي قَلْبِه، وَأَتْتُه الدُّنْيَا وهي رَاغِمَةٌ".
