5037. It was narrated that Abū Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allāh said: 'Indeed, this religion is easy, and no one will ever overburden himself in religion, except that it will overcome him. So seek what is appropriate, and come as close as you can, and receive the glad tidings (that you will be rewarded), and take it easy; and gain strength by worshipping in the mornings, afternoons and during the last hours of the nights.'" (Sahīh)
5034 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ مَعْنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ هَذَا الدِّينَ يُسْرٌ، وَلَنْ يُشَادَّ الدِّينَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا غَلَبَهُ، فَسَدِّدُوا وَقَارِبُوا، وَأَبْشِرُوا، وَيَسِّرُوا، وَاسْتَعِينُوا بِالْغَدْوَةِ وَالرَّوْحَةِ، وَشَيْءٍ مِنَ الدَّلْجَةِ»

'The true Religion (Dīn) is easy' means the commandments which have been stipulated by Allāh, Most High, are not beyond the capability of man. They could be practiced with ease, because Allāh, Most High, does not burden any soul with more than he is able to bear. This, however, does not mean the work which appears difficult cannot be religious. For a dishonest man, each and every work and aspect of the religion is difficult.
