Abu Musa reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: The similitude of that guidance and knowledge with which Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, has sent me is that of rain falling upon the earth. There is a good piece of land which receives the rainfall (eagerly) and as a result of it there is grown in it herbage and grass abundantly. Then there is a land hard and barren which retains water and the people derive benefit from it and they drink it and make the animals drink. Then there is another land which is barren. Neither water is retained in it, nor is the grass grown in it. And that is the similitude of the first one who develops the understanding of the religion of Allah and it becomes a source of benefit to him with which Allah sent me. (The second one is that) who acquires the knowledge of religion and imparts it to others. (Then the other type is) one who does not pay attention to (the revealed knowledge) and thus does not accept guidance of Allah with which I have been sent.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَأَبُو عَامِرٍ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي عَامِرٍ - قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِنَّ مَثَلَ مَا بَعَثَنِيَ اللهُ بِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنَ الْهُدَى، وَالْعِلْمِ كَمَثَلِ غَيْثٍ أَصَابَ أَرْضًا، فَكَانَتْ مِنْهَا طَائِفَةٌ طَيِّبَةٌ، قَبِلَتِ الْمَاءَ فَأَنْبَتَتِ الْكَلَأَ وَالْعُشْبَ الْكَثِيرَ، وَكَانَ مِنْهَا أَجَادِبُ أَمْسَكَتِ الْمَاءَ، فَنَفَعَ اللهُ بِهَا النَّاسَ، فَشَرِبُوا مِنْهَا وَسَقَوْا وَرَعَوْا، وَأَصَابَ طَائِفَةً مِنْهَا أُخْرَى، إِنَّمَا هِيَ قِيعَانٌ لَا تُمْسِكُ مَاءً، وَلَا تُنْبِتُ كَلَأً، فَذَلِكَ مَثَلُ مَنْ فَقُهَ فِي دِينِ اللهِ، وَنَفَعَهُ بِمَا بَعَثَنِيَ اللهُ بِهِ، فَعَلِمَ وَعَلَّمَ، وَمَثَلُ مَنْ لَمْ يَرْفَعْ بِذَلِكَ رَأْسًا، وَلَمْ يَقْبَلْ هُدَى اللهِ الَّذِي أُرْسِلْتُ بِهِ»

سیدنا ابوموسیٰ اشعری رضی اللہ عنہ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے روایت کرتے ہیں کہ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا : اس کی مثال جو اللہ نے مجھے ہدایت اور علم دیا ، ایسی ہے جیسے زمین پر بارش برسی اور اس ( زمین ) میں کچھ حصہ ایسا تھا جس نے پانی کو چوس لیا اور چارا اور بہت سا سبزہ اگایا ۔ اور اس کا کچھ حصہ کڑا سخت تھا ، اس نے پانی کو جمع رکھا ، پھر اللہ تعالیٰ نے اس ( پانی ) سے لوگوں کو فائدہ پہنچایا کہ انہوں نے اس میں سے پیا ، پلایا اور چرایا ۔ اور اس کا کچھ حصہ چٹیل میدان ہے کہ نہ تو پانی کو روکے اور نہ گھاس اگائے ۔ ( جیسے چکنی چٹان کہ پانی لگا اور چل دیا ) تو یہ اس کی مثال ہے کہ جس نے اللہ کے دین کو سمجھا اور اللہ نے اس کو اس چیز سے فائدہ دیا جو مجھے عطا فرمائی ، اس نے آپ بھی جانا اور دوسروں کو بھی سکھایا اور جس نے اس طرف سر نہ اٹھایا ( یعنی توجہ نہ کی ) اور اللہ کی ہدایت کو جس کو میں دے کر بھیجا گیا قبول نہ کیا ۔

sahih-muslim-5954

Abu Musa reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: The similitude of mine and of that with which Allah sent me is that of a person who came to us and said: O people, I have seen an army with my eyes and I am a plain warner (and issue you warning) that you should immediately manage to find an escape. A group of people from amongst them paying heed (to his warning) fled to a place of protection and a group amongst them belied him and the morning overtook them in their houses and the army attacked them and killed them and they were routed. And that is the similitude of the one who obeyed me, followed with which I had been sent and the similitude of the other is of one who disobeyed and belied me and the Truth with which I have been sent.
