3942. It was narrated from Jarir bin 'Abdullāh that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said, during the Farewell Pilgrimage: "Make the people pay attention." Then he said: "Do not turn back into disbelievers after I am gone, striking one another's necks." (Sahih)

Arabic text

3942 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، وَعْبَدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُدْرِكٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا زُرْعَةَ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَرِيرٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ: «اسْتَنْصِتِ النَّاسَ» ، فَقَالَ: «لَا تَرْجِعُوا بَعْدِي كُفَّارًا، يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ»

Commentary

Muslims should solve their problems with mutual understanding, not with the power of arms. Muslims should adopt the practices that foster love amongst them such as greeting each other, standing closely to each other in congregational prayers, straightening their rows in prayers and the like. On the other hand, they should avoid the characteristics that may sue disagreement or lead to enmity, such as humiliating someone, being unjust, transgressing, abusing, backbiting and the like practices. c. Killing and attacking people are enormous crimes that suit non-believers.
