English translation

7202. Narrated ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Umar رضي الله عنه: Whenever we gave the Bai'a (pledge) to Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ for to listen and obey, he used to say to us, “For as much as you can” (i.e., whatever is in your ability).

Arabic text

7202 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: كُنَّا إِذَا بَايَعْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى السَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ، يَقُولُ لَنَا: «فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ»
