Arabic text

4999 - أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْأُمَوِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بُرْدَةَ وَهَوَ بُرَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى قَالَ: قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَيُّ الْإِسْلَامِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: «مَنْ سَلِمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَيَدِهِ»

Commentary

In this chapter, the objective of the author (May Allāh be pleased with him) is to demonstrate that all Muslims are not equal in Islam and Faith. Rather the Islam and Faith of some happen to be deep, of some shallow. And this deficiency and fullness occur from the angle of deeds as well as from the angle of the inner state of the heart.
