3429. Narrated ‘Abdullāh الله عنه رضي الله عنه: When the Verse: “Those who believe (in the Oneness of Allāh and worship none but Him Alone) and confuse not their belief with Zulm (wrong)” (V.6:82), was revealed, the Muslims felt it very hard and said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! Who amongst us has not done Zulm (wrong) to himself?” He replied, “The Verse does not mean this. But that Zulm (wrong) means to associate others in worship to Allāh. Don’t you listen to what Luqmān said to his son when he was advising him, “...O my son! Join not others in worship with Allāh. Verily! Joining others in worship with Allāh is a great Zulm (wrong) indeed.” (V.31:13)

3429 - حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ {الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَلَمْ يَلْبِسُوا} [الأنعام: 82] إِيمَانَهُمْ بِظُلْمٍ شَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى المُسْلِمِينَ، فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَيُّنَا لاَ يَظْلِمُ نَفْسَهُ؟ قَالَ: «لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ الشِّرْكُ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا مَا قَالَ لُقْمَانُ لِابْنِهِ وَهُوَ يَعِظُهُ يَا بُنَيَّ لاَ تُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّ الشِّرْكَ لَظُلْمٌ عَظِيمٌ»
