Abu Huraira reported: One day the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) appeared before the public that a man came to him and said: Prophet of Allah, (tell me) what is Iman. Upon this he (the Holy Prophet) replied: That you affirm your faith in Allah, His angels, His Books, His meeting, His Messengers and that you affirm your faith in the Resurrection hereafter. He (again) said: Messenger of Allah, (tell me) what does al-Islam signify. He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Al-Islam signifies that you worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him and you establish obligatory prayer and you pay the obligatory poor-rate (Zakat) and you observe the fast of Ramadan. He (the inquirer) again said: Messenger of Allah, what does al-Ihsan imply? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: That you worship Allah as if you are seeing Him, and in case you fail to see Him, then observe prayer (with this idea in your mind) that (at least) He is seeing you. He (the inquirer ) again said: Messenger of Allah, when would there be the hour (of Doom)? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: The one who is asked about it is no better informed than the inquirer. I, however, narrate some of its signs (and these are): when the slave-girl will give birth to he master, when the naked, barefooted would become the chiefs of the people - these are some of the signs of (Doom). (Moreover) when the shepherds of the black (camels) would exult themselves in buildings, this is one of the signs of (Doom). (Doom) is one of the five (happenings wrapped in the unseen) which no one knows but Allah. Then he (the Messenger of Allah) recited (the verse): Verily Allah! with Him alone is the knowledge of the hour and He it is Who sends (down the rain) and knows that which is in the wombs and no person knows whatsoever he shall earn tomorrow, and a person knows not in whatsoever land he shall die. Verily Allah is Knowing, Aware. He (the narrator, Abu Huraira) said: Then the person turned back and went away. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Bring that man back to me. They (the Companions of the Prophet present there) went to bring him back, but they saw nothing there. Upon this the Messenger of Allah remarked: he was Gabriel, who came to teach the people their religion

وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ، قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّانَ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا بَارِزًا لِلنَّاسِ، فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولُ اللهِ، مَا الْإِيمَانُ؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تُؤْمِنَ بِاللهِ، وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ، وَكِتَابِهِ، وَلِقَائِهِ، وَرُسُلِهِ، وَتُؤْمِنَ بِالْبَعْثِ الْآخِرِ»، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا الْإِسْلَامُ؟ قَالَ: «الْإِسْلَامُ أَنْ تَعْبُدَ اللهَ، وَلَا تُشْرِكَ بِهِ شَيْئًا، وَتُقِيمَ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ، وَتُؤَدِّيَ الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ، وَتَصُومَ رَمَضَانَ» قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا الْإِحْسَانُ؟ قَالَ: «أَنْ تَعْبُدَ اللهَ كَأَنَّكَ تَرَاهُ، فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ لَا تَرَاهُ فَإِنَّهُ يَرَاكَ»، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهَ، مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ: مَا الْمَسْئُولُ عَنْهَا بِأَعْلَمَ مِنَ السَّائِلِ، وَلَكِنْ سَأُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ أَشْرَاطِهَا: إِذَا وَلَدَتِ الْأَمَةُ رَبَّهَا، فَذَاكَ مِنْ أَشْرَاطِهَا، وَإِذَا كَانَتِ الْعُرَاةُ الْحُفَاةُ رُءُوسَ النَّاسِ، فَذَاكَ مِنْ أَشْرَاطِهَا، وَإِذَا تَطَاوَلَ رِعَاءُ الْبَهْمِ فِي الْبُنْيَانِ، فَذَاكَ مِنْ أَشْرَاطِهَا فِي خَمْسٍ لَا يَعْلَمُهُنَّ إِلَّا اللهُ، ثُمَّ تَلَا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: {إِنَّ اللهِ عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ السَّاعَةِ وَيُنَزِّلُ الْغَيْثَ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِي الْأَرْحَامِ وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ مَاذَا تَكْسِبُ غَدًا وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ بِأَيِّ أَرْضٍ تَمُوتُ إِنَّ اللهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ} [لقمان: 34] قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ الرَّجُلُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «رُدُّوا عَلَيَّ الرَّجُلَ»، فَأَخَذُوا لِيَرُدُّوهُ، فَلَمْ يَرَوْا شَيْئًا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «هَذَا جِبْرِيلُ جَاءَ لِيُعَلِّمَ النَّاسَ دِينَهُمْ

اسماعیل بن ابراہیم ( ابن علیہ ) نے ابو حیان سے ، انہوں نے ابو زرعہ بن عمرو بن جریر سے اور انہوں نے حضرت ابو ہریرہ ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ سے روایت کی ، کہا : رسول اللہ ﷺ ایک دن لوگوں کے سامنے ( تشریف فرما ) تھے ، ایک آدمی آپﷺ کے پاس آیا اور پوچھا : اے اللہ کے رسول ! ایمان کیا ہے ؟ آپ نے فرمایا : ’’تم اللہ تعالیٰ ، اس کے فرشتوں ، اس کی کتاب ، ( قیامت کے روز ) اس سے ملاقات ( اس کے سامنے حاضری ) اور اس کے رسولوں پر ایمان لاؤ اور آخری ( بار زندہ ہو کر ) اٹھنے پر ( بھی ) ایمان لے آؤ ۔ ‘ ‘ اس نے کہا : اے اللہ کے رسول ! اسلام کیا ہے ؟ آپﷺ نے فرمایا : ’’اسلام یہ ہے کہ اللہ تعالیٰ کی عبادت کرو اور اس کے ساتھ کسی چیز کو شریک نہ ٹھہراؤ ، لکھی ( فرض کی ) گئی نمازوں کی ‎پابندی کرو ، فرض کی گئی زکاۃ ادا کرو ۔ اور رمضان کے روزے رکھو ۔ ‘ ‘ اس نے کہا : اے اللہ کے رسول ! احسان کیا ہے ؟ آپﷺ نے فرمایا : ’’ اللہ تعالیٰ کی عبادت اس طرح کرو گویا تم اسے دیکھ رہے ہو اور اگر تم اسے نہیں دیکھ رہے ہو تو وہ یقیناً تمہیں دیکھ رہا ہے ۔ ‘ ‘ اس نے کہا : اے اللہ کے رسول ! قیامت کب ( قائم ) ہو گی ؟ آپ ﷺ نے فرمایا : ’’جس سے سوال کیا گیا ہے ، وہ ا س کے بارے میں پوچھنے والے سےزیادہ آگاہ نہیں ۔ لیکن میں تمہیں قیامت کی نشانیاں بتائے دیتا ہوں : جب لونڈی اپنا مالک جنے گی تو یہ اس کی نشانیوں میں سے ہے ، اور جب ننگے بدن اور ننگے پاؤں والے لوگوں کے سردار بن جائیں گے تو یہ اس کی نشانیوں میں سے ہے ، اور جب بھیڑ بکریاں چرانے والے ، اونچی اونچی عمارتیں بنانے میں ایک دوسرے سے مقابلہ کریں گے تو یہ اس کی علامات میں سے ہے ۔ ( قیامت کے وقت کا علم ) ان پانچ چیزوں میں سے ہے جنہیں اللہ تعالیٰ کے سوا کوئی نہیں جانتا ہے ‘ ‘ پھر آپ ﷺ نے یہ آیت پڑھی : ’’بے شک اللہ تعالیٰ ہی کے پاس قیامت کا علم ہے ، وہی بارش برساتا ہے اور وہی جانتا ہے کہ ارحام ( ماؤں کے پیٹوں ) میں کیا ہے ، کوئی ذی روح نہیں جانتا کہ وہ کل کیا کرے گا ، نہ کسی متنفس کویہ معلوم ہے کہ وہ زمین کے کس حصے میں فوت ہو گا ، بلاشبہ اللہ تعالیٰ علم والا خبردار ہے ۔ ‘ ‘ حضرت ابو ہریرہ ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ نے ) کہا : پھر وہ آدمی واپس چلا گیا تو رسول اللہ ﷺ نے فرمایا : ’’ اس آ دمی کو میرے پاس واپس لاؤ ۔ ‘ ‘ صحابہ کرام ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ اسے واپس لانے کے لیے بھاک دوڑ کرنےلگے تو انہیں کچھ نظر نہ آیا ، رسول اللہ نے فرمایا : ’’یہ جبریل ‌علیہ ‌السلام ‌ تھے جو لوگوں کو ان کا دین سکھانے آئے تھے ۔ ‘ ‘

sahih-muslim-99

It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Ask me (about matters pertaining to religion), but they (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) were too much overawed out of profound respect for him to ask him (anything). In the meanwhile a man came there, and sat near his knees and said: Messenger of Allah, what al-lslam is? -to which he (the Holy Prophet) replied: You must not associate anything with Allah, and establish prayer, pay the poor-rate (Zakat) and observe (the fasts) of Ramadan. He said: You (have) told the truth. He (again) said: Messenger of Allah, what al-Iman (the faith) is? He (the Holy Prophet) said: That you affirm your faith in Allah, His angels, His Books, His meeting, His Apostles, and that you believe in Resurrection and that you believe in Qadr (Divine Decree) in all its entirety, He (the inquirer) said: You (have) told the truth. He (again) said: Messenger of Allah, what al-Ihsan is? Upon this he (the Holy Prophet) said: (Al-Ihsan implies) that you fear Allah as if you are seeing Him, and though you see Him not, verily He is seeing you. He (the inquirer) said: You (have) told the truth. He (the inquirer) said: When there would be the hour (of Doom)? (Upon this) he (the HolyProphet said: The one who is being asked about it is no better informed than the inquirer himself. I, however, narrate some of its signs (and these are): when you see a slave (woman) giving birth to her master - that is one of the signs of (Doom) ; when you see barefooted, naked, deaf and dumb (ignorant and foolish persons) as the rulers of the earth - that is one of the signs of the Doom. And when you see the shepherds of black camels exult in buildings - that is one of the signs of Doom. The (Doom) is one of the five things (wrapped) in the unseen. No one knows them except Allah. Then (the Holy Prophet) recited (the folowing verse): Verily Allah! with Him alone is the knowledge of the hour and He it is Who sends down the rain and knows that which is in the wombs and no person knows whatsoever he shall earn on morrow and a person knows not in whatsoever land he shall die. Verily Allah is Knowing, Aware. He (the narrator, Abu Huraira) said: Then the person stood up an (made his way). The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Bring him back to me. He was searched for, but they (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) could not find him. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) thereupon said: He was Gabriel and he wanted to teach you (things pertaining to religion) when you did not ask (them yourselves).

It is reported on the authority of Talha b. 'Ubaidullah that a person with dishevelled hair, one of the people of Nejd, came to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). We heard the humming of his voice but could not fully discern what he had been saying, till he came nigh to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). It was then (disclosed to us) that he was asking questions pertaining to Islam. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Five prayers during the day and the night. (Upon this he said: Am I obliged to say any other (prayer) besides these? He (the Holy Prophet, ) said: No, but whatever you observe voluntarily, out of your own free will, and the fasts of Ramadan. The inquirer said: Am I obliged to do anything else besides this? He (the Holy Prophet) said: No, but whatever you do out of your own free will. And the Messenger of Allah told him about the Zakat (poor-rate). The inquirer said: Am I obliged to pay anything else besides this? He (the Holy Prophet) said: No, but whatever you pay voluntarily out of your own free will. The man turned back and was saying: I would neither make any addition to this, nor will decrease anything out of it. The Prophet remarked: He is successful, if he is true to what he affirms.

sahih-muslim-102

It is reported on the authority of Anas b. Malik that he said: We were forbidden that we should ask anything (without the genuine need) from the Holy Prophet. It, therefore, pleased us that an intelligent person from the dwellers of the desert should come and asked him (the Holy Prophet) and we should listen to it. A man from the dwellers of the desert came (to the Holy Prophet) and said: Muhammad, your messenger came to us and told us your assertion that verily Allah had sent you (as a prophet). He (the Holy Prophet) remarked: He told the truth. He (the bedouin) said: Who created the heaven? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Allah. He (the bedouin again) said: Who created the earth? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Allah. He (the bedouin again) said: Who raised these mountains and who created in them whatever is created there? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Allah. Upon this he (the bedouin) remarked: By Him Who created the heaven and created the earth and raised mountains thereupon, has Allah (in fact) sent you? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Yes. He (the bedouin) said: Your messenger also told us that five prayers (had been made) obligatory for us during the day and the night. He (the Holy Prophet) remarked: He told you the truth. He (the bedouin) said: By Him Who sent you, is it Allah Who ordered you about this (i. e. prayers)? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Yes. He (the bedouin) said: Your messenger told us that Zakat had been made obligatory in our riches. He (the Holy Prophet) said. He has told the truth.
