4347. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said to Mu'ād bin Jabal when he sent him to Yemen, "You will come to the people of Scripture, and when you reach them, invite them to testify that "Lā ilāha illallāh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh) and that Muḥammad ﷺ is the Messenger of Allah." And if they obey you in that, then tell them that Allāh has enjoined on them five compulsory congregational Ṣalāt (prayers) to be performed every day and night (in 24 hours) (i.e., Iqamat-aṣ-Ṣalat). And if they obey you in that, then tell them that Allāh has enjoined on them Ṣadaqa (i.e., Zakāt) to be taken from the rich amongst them and given to the poor amongst them. And if they obey you in that, then be cautious! Don't take their best properties (as Zakāt) and be afraid of the curse of an oppressed person as there is no screen between his invocation and Allāh."[See Vol. 9, Hadīth No.7371, 7372]

4347 - حَدَّثَنِي حِبَّانُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّاءَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْبَدٍ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ حِينَ بَعَثَهُ إِلَى اليَمَنِ: «إِنَّكَ سَتَأْتِي قَوْمًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الكِتَابِ، فَإِذَا جِئْتَهُمْ فَادْعُهُمْ إِلَى أَنْ يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، فَإِنْ هُمْ طَاعُوا لَكَ بِذَلِكَ، فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ، فَإِنْ هُمْ طَاعُوا لَكَ بِذَلِكَ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ صَدَقَةً، تُؤْخَذُ مِنْ أَغْنِيَائِهِمْ فَتُرَدُّ عَلَى فُقَرَائِهِمْ، فَإِنْ هُمْ طَاعُوا لَكَ بِذَلِكَ فَإِيَّاكَ وَكَرَائِمَ أَمْوَالِهِمْ، وَاتَّقِ دَعْوَةَ المَظْلُومِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ اللَّهِ حِجَابٌ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: طَوَّعَتْ طَاعَتْ، وَأَطَاعَتْ لُغَةٌ، طِعْتُ وَطُعْتُ وَأَطَعْتُ
