4018. It was narrated that ‘Abdullâh said: “I said: ‘O Messenger of Allâh, which sin is the most grievous?’ He said: ‘Setting up a rival to Allâh while it is He that has created you.’ I said: ‘Then what?’ He said: ‘Killing your child for fear that he may eat with you.’ I said: ‘Then what?’ He said: ‘Committing adultery with your neighbor’s wife.’” (Sahîh)
4013 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ وَاصِلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا، وَهُوَ خَلَقَكَ» قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ» قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تُزَانِيَ بِحَلِيلَةِ جَارِكَ»

To kill someone is a sin, but killing one’s own child! And such depravity that one kills one’s own child out of fear that he shall eat some of his food. Adultery in itself is an enormity, but committing adultery with the wife of one’s neighbor!
