٢٨٩٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ ‌مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ ، عَنْ ‌عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ حُنَيْنٍ مَوْلًى لِآلِ زَيْدِ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، أَوْ مَوْلَى زَيْدِ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «أَقْبَلْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَسَمِعَ رَجُلًا» يَقْرَأُ {قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ * اللهُ الصَّمَدُ} فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: وَجَبَتْ. قُلْتُ: مَا وَجَبَتْ؟ قَالَ: الْجَنَّةُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ. وَابْنُ حُنَيْنٍ هُوَ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ حُنَيْنٍ.

Commentary

The spirit and core of the religion is "Tauhīd" Oneness of Allāh, a perfect and comprehensive reality of Oneness has been mentioned in this Sūrah that has blocked all avenues towards polytheism. This Sūrah leaves no doubt regarding Allāh's Self, His Attributes and allows no one to share the essential meanings of these Attributes. The fruit and end of the Oneness is Paradise; Love for this Sūrah and reading it repeatedly is an evidence of the love for "Tauhīd", steadfastness and consistency upon it. Therefore the destination of such a person will be Paradise; may Allāh Almighty make us punctual and habitual readers of it. Amen!
