حَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الأَزْدِيُّ، وَشَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، (وَاللَّفْظُ لِشَيْبَانَ) حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «عَجَبًا لأَمْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِنَّ أَمْرَهُ كُلَّهُ خَيْرٌ وَلَيْسَ ذَاكَ لأَحَدٍ إِلاَّ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ إِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ سَرَّاءُ شَكَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ ضَرَّاءُ صَبَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Strange are the ways of a believer for there is good in every affair of his and this is not the case with anyone else except in the case of a believer for if he has an occasion to feel delight, he thanks (God), thus there is a good for him in it, and if he gets into trouble and shows resignation (and endures it patiently), there is a good for him in it.

যুহায়র ইবনু হারব (রহঃ) ..... আমর ইবনু দীনার (রহঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমরা ইবনু উমার (রাযিঃ) এর নিকট এক লোক সম্পর্কে জিজ্ঞেস করলাম যে, উমরাহ করার উদ্দেশে আগমন করেছে, অতঃপর বায়তুল্লাহ তওয়াফ করেছে কিন্তু সাফা-মারওয়ার মাঝে সাঈ করেনি- সে কি তার স্ত্রীর সাথে মিলতে পারে?

ইবনু উমর (রাযিঃ) বললেন, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম মাক্কাহ (মক্কাহ) আগমন করে সাতবার বায়তুল্লাহ তওয়াফ করেন, মাকামে ইবরাহীমের পিছনে দু' রাকাআত সালাত (সালাত/নামাজ/নামায) আদায় করেন এবং সাফা-মারওয়ার মাঝে সাতবার সাঈ করেন। আর তোমাদের জন্য অবশ্যই আল্লাহর রসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর মধ্যে উত্তম আদর্শ রয়েছে।

سفیان بن عینیہ نے عمرو بن دینار سے حدیث بیان کی ، کہا : ہم نے حضرت ابن عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے اس شخص کے متعلق پوچھا جو عمرے کی غرض سے آیا ، اس نے بیت اللہ کاطواف کرلیا ( لیکن ابھی ) صفا مروہ کی سعی نہیں کی ، کیا وہ اپنی بیوی سے صحبت کرسکتا ہے؟انھوں نے فرمایا : ( جب ) رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم تشریف لائے تھے تو آپ نے بیت اللہ کا سات بار طواف کیا ، مقام ابراہیم کے پیچھے دو رکعتیں ادا فرمائیں ، اور ( پھر ) صفا مروہ کے درمیان سات بار چکر لگائے ۔

اور ( یاد رکھو ) تمھارے لئے اللہ کے رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ( کے طریقے ) میں بہترین نمونہ ہے ۔

Telah menceritakan kepadaku [Zuhair bin Harb] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Sufyan bin Uyainah] dari [Amru bin Dinar] ia berkata; Kami bertanya kepada [Ibnu Umar] mengenai seorang laki-laki yang mengerjakan ibadah umrah, lalu ia thawaf di Baitullah tetapi belum Sa'i antara Shafa dan Marwa. Bolehkah ia menggauli isterinya (bertahallul).

Ibnu Umar menjawab, "Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam telah melakukan umrah, mula-mula beliau thawaf di Baitullah tujuh kali; kemudian shalat dua raka'at di Maqam Ibrahim, kemudian Sa'i antara Shafa dan Marwah tujuh kali. Sesungguhnya pada diri Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam terdapat suri tauladan yang baik bagi kalian."

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya bin Yahya] dan [Abu Rabi' Az Zahrani] dari [Hammad bin Zaid] -dalam riwayat lain- Dan Telah meceritakan kepada kami [Abdu bin Humaid] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Muhamamd bin Bakr] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Ibnu Juraij] semuanya dari [Amru bin Dinar] dari [Ibnu Umar] radliallahu 'anhuma, dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam. yakni seperti haditsnya Ibnu Uyainah

Bana Züheyr b. Harb rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize Siifyân b. Uyeyne, Amr b. Dinar'dan rivayet etti. Amr şöyle demiş: İbni Ömer'e, Umre'ye niyet ederek gelip de beyti tavaf eden, fakat Safa ile Merve arasında sa'y yapmayan bir adamın karısına yakınlık edip edemiyeceğini sorduk.

İbni Ömer şöyle dedi: «Resulullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) (hacca) geldi de, beyti yedi defa tavaf etti, Makaam-i İbrahim'in arkasında iki rek'at namaz kıldı, Safâ ile Merve arasında da yedi defa sa'y de bulundu. Muhakkak ki, sizin için Resulullah'da güzel bir örnek vardır.»

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) expresses wonder, by way of admiration, at the believer's affairs and conditions because all of his conditions are good, and this is for none except the believer. Whenever something good happens to him, he thanks Allah for it and gets rewarded for showing gratitude. If something bad happens to him, he shows patience and seeks reward from Allah and, thus, gets rewarded for showing patience. So, he gets rewarded in all cases.

What it teaches

  • The merit of showing gratitude in prosperity and patience in adversity is that whoever does this will attain goodness in both abodes. However, one who neither shows gratitude in the case of blessings nor patience in the case of calamities will miss the reward and incur sin.
  • The merit of Imān (faith) and the fact that reward in all cases is for none but for those who have faith.
  • Showing gratitude at times of prosperity and patience at times of adversity are from the believers' characteristics.
  • Belief in Allah's decree and predestination makes the believer perfectly content with all of his conditions, unlike the non-believer, who is constantly discontented when experiencing hardship, and if he receives a blessing from Allah Almighty, he becomes preoccupied with it and gets distracted from obeying Allah, let alone using such a blessing in disobeying Him.
