[7207] 63 - (2865) It was narrated from 'Iyâd bin Hîmâr Al-Mujâshî'î that one day in his Khuṭbah, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Behold! My Lord has commanded me to teach you that which you do not know of what He has taught me: 'On this day, all the wealth that I have bestowed upon a slave (of Allāh) is permissible. I have created all My slaves Hunafā' (with the inclination to worship Allāh alone), but the devils come to them and turn them away from their religion (true path). They forbid to them that which I have permitted to them, and they tell them to associate others with Me for which I have not sent down any authority.' Allāh looked at the people of earth and hated them, Arabs and non-Arabs alike, except a remnant of the People of the Book. He said: 'I have only sent you to put you to trial, and to put others to trial through you, and I have revealed to you a Book that cannot be washed away with water, which you will recite when sleeping and when awake.' Allāh commanded me to severely strike the Quraish and I said: 'Lord, they will break my head like bread.' He said: 'Expel them as they expelled you; fight them and We will help you; spend, and you will be spent upon; send out an army, and We will send five like it; fight with the help of those who obey you against those who disobey you.'" He said: "And the people of Paradise are of three types: A man of authority who is fair and just, who gives charity and does good; a man who is compassionate and kind to every relative, and Muslim; and a man who refrains from asking for help even though he has dependents. “And the people of the Fire are of five types: A weak man who lacks the wisdom (to avoid evil); those who are your followers that do not have any care for family and wealth; one who is dishonest and is a miser even for a little; a man who will betray you morning and evening with regard to your family and your wealth” – and he mentioned miserliness or lying – “and the one whose language is obscene.” Abû Ghassân (a sub narrator) did not mention in his Hadîth the words “spend and you will be spent upon.”

Arabic text

٦٣ - (٢٨٦٥) حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو غَسَّانَ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ ومُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ومحمد بن بشار بن عثمان (واللفظ لأبي غسان وابن الْمُثَنَّى). قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ. حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بن الشخير، عن عياض بن جمار المجاشعي؛ إن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال، ذات يوم في خطبته "ألا إن ربي أمرني أن أعلمكم ما جهلتم مما علمني، يومي هذا. كل مال نحلته عبدا، حلال. وإني خلقت عبادي حنفاء كلهم. وإنهم أتتهم الشياطين فاحتالتهم عن دينهم. وحرمت عليهم ما أحللت لهم. وأمرتهم أن يشركوا بي ما لم أنزل به سلطانا. وإن الله نظر إلى أهل الأرض فمقتهم، عربهم وعجمهم، إلا بقايا من أهل الكتاب. وقال: إنما بعثتك لأبتليك وأبتلي بك. وأنزلت عليك كتابا لا يغسله الماء. تقرؤه نائما ويقظان. وإن الله أمرني أن أحرق قريشا. فقلت: رب! إذا يثلغوا رأسي فيدعوه خبزة. قال: استخرجهم كما استخرجوك. واغزهم نغزك. وأنفق فسننفق عليك. وابعث جيشا نبعث خمسة مثله. وقاتل بمن أطاعك من عصاك. قال: وأهل الجنة ثلاثة: ذو سلطان مقسط متصدق موفق. ورجل رحيم رقيق القلب لكل ذي قربى، ومسلم. وعفيف متعفف ذو عيال. قال: وأهل النار خمسة: الضعيف الذي لا زبر له، الذين هم فيكم تبعا لا يتبعون أهلا ولا مالا. والخائن الذي لا يخفى له طمع، وإن دق إلا خانه. ورجل لا يصبح ولا يمسي إلا وهو يخادعك عن أهلك ومالك". وذكر البخل أو الكذب "والشنظير الفحاش" ولم يذكر أبو غسان في حديثه "وأنفق فسننفق عليك".
