4677. Ibn 'Abbās said: "When the delegation of 'Abdul-Qais came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, he told them to believe in Allāh, and he said: 'Do you know what believing in Allāh means?' They said: 'Allāh and His Messenger know best.' He said: 'Bearing witness to Lā ilāha illallāh, and that Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh, establishing the Ṣalāt, paying the Zakāh, fasting Ramaḍān and giving one-fifth of the spoils of war (Khumus).'" (Saḥīh)

4677 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو جَمْرَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: إِنَّ وَفْدَ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ لَمَّا قَدِمُوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَمَرَهُمْ بِالْإِيمَانِ بِاللَّهِ، قَالَ: «أَتَدْرُونَ مَا الْإِيمَانُ بِاللَّهِ»، قَالُوا: اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ: «شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَإِقَامُ الصَّلَاةِ، وَإِيتَاءُ الزَّكَاةِ، وَصَوْمُ رَمَضَانَ، وَأَنْ تُعْطُوا الْخُمْسَ مِنَ الْمَغْنَمِ»

Commentary

1. Other than saying by tongue and testifying by heart, the most important part of belief is to prove it through actions and deeds. 2. In this narration, Hajj has not been mentioned, because at this time performing Hajj was not yet declared obligatory.
