Arabic text

4010 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ح وَأَنْبَأَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْكَبَائِرُ الشِّرْكُ بِاللَّهِ، وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ، وَقَتْلُ النَّفْسِ، وَقَوْلُ الزُّورِ»

Commentary

Major sins may be understood to be of three kinds: (1) The gravest of major sins (Kabir Al-Kabâ'ir), for instance, polytheism (Shirk) or the denial of an absolute command of the Divine law. (2) Those sins which violate the rights of other human beings, for example, murder. (3) Violation of orders or prohibitions of Allâh, for instance, adultery, drinking wine, etc.
