MUHAMMAD’S TEACHINGS TO MANKIND

ḤADĪTH OF THE DAY

“ While the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, was standing on 'Arafah during the Farewell Pilgrimage (1), he was approached by a Bedouin who grasped the edge of his cloak and asked him for it. The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, gave it to him, and he left. Since then, begging was decreed forbidden. The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, "Begging is not permissible for the rich, nor for those who are fit to earn a living; but only for someone in grinding poverty or serious debt. Whoever begs to thereby increase his (2) wealth, it will blemish his face on the Day of Resurrection and will turn to a scorching stone from Hell that he will eat; so let him reduce [his punishment] or increase it as he pleases (3). Footnotes: (1) (Ḥajj) The pilgrimage to Makkah during the first half of the month of Thul-Ḥijjah, which is the fifth pillar of Islām. The Prophet's Farewell Pilgrimage was his final pilgrimage before he passed away. (2) Masculine pronouns are used in Arabic for referring to both men and women when the meaning is left general and is not otherwise specified. (3) i.e. it is up to him to decrease his punishment by not begging, and vice-versa. ”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِىٍّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ حَكِيمِ بْنِ دَيْلَمَ عَنْ أَبِى بُرْدَةَ بْنِ أَبِى مُوسَى عَنْ أَبِى مُوسَى قَالَ كَانَ الْيَهُودُ يَتَعَاطَسُونَ عِنْدَ النَّبِىِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَرْجُونَ أَنْ يَقُولَ لَهُمْ يَرْحَمُكُمُ اللَّهُ. فَيَقُولُ يَهْدِيكُمُ اللَّهُ وَيُصْلِحُ بَالَكُمْ. وَفِى الْبَابِ عَنْ عَلِىٍّ وَأَبِى أَيُّوبَ وَسَالِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ وَأَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

The Jews would sneeze deliberately in the presence of the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, in the hope that he would respond by saying, "May God have mercy on you." (Instead), He, peace and blessings of God be upon him, would say, "May God guide you and amend your condition." Click on ḥadīth to read more
