حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي سَالِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ رضى الله عنهم

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا مَرَّ بِالْحِجْرِ قَالَ: «لَا تَدْخُلُوا مَسَاكِنَ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا إِلَاّ أَنْ تَكُونُوا بَاكِينَ، أَنْ يُصِيبَكُمْ مَا أَصَابَهُمْ». ثُمَّ تَقَنَّعَ بِرِدَائِهِ، وَهْوَ عَلَى الرَّحْلِ

When the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) passed by (a place called) Al Hijr, he said, “Do not enter the houses of those who were unjust to themselves, unless (you enter) weeping, lest you should suffer the same punishment as was inflicted upon them.” After that he covered his face with his sheet cloth while he was on the camel-saddle.

‘আবদুল্লাহ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম যখন ‘হিজ্র’ নামক স্থান অতিক্রম করলেন, তখন তিনি বললেন, তোমরা এমন লোকদের আবাস স্থল প্রবেশ করো না যারা নিজেরাই নিজেদের উপর জুলুম করেছে। প্রবেশ করলে, ক্রন্দনরত অবস্থায়, যেন তাদের প্রতি যে বিপদ এসেছিল তোমাদের প্রতি সে রকম বিপদ না আসে। অতঃপর রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বাহনের উপর আরোহী অবস্থায় নিজ চাদর দিয়ে চেহারা ঢেকে নিলেন। (৪৩৩)

ہم سے محمد نے بیان کیا ‘ کہا ہم کو عبداللہ نے خبر دی ‘ انہیں معمر نے ‘ ان سے زہری نے بیان کیا ‘ کہا مجھ کو سالم بن عبداللہ نے خبر دی اور انہیں ان کے والد (عبداللہ رضی اللہ عنہ) نے کہ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم جب مقام حجر سے گزرے تو فرمایا ”ان لوگوں کی بستی میں جنہوں نے ظلم کیا تھا نہ داخل ہو ‘ لیکن اس صورت میں کہ تم روتے ہوئے ہو۔

کہیں ایسا نہ ہو کہ تم پر وہی عذاب آ جائے جو ان پر آیا تھا۔“ پھر آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے اپنی چادر چہرہ مبارک پر ڈال لی۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم اس وقت کجاوے پر تشریف رکھتے تھے۔

Telah bercerita kepadaku [Muhammad] telah mengabarkan kepada kami ['Abdullah] dari [Ma'mar] dari [Az Zuhriy] berkata telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Salim bin 'Abdullah] dari [bapaknya radliallahu 'anhum] bahwa Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam ketika berjalan melewati al-Hijr, Beliau berkata: "Janganlah kalian memasuki tempat tinggal orang-orang yang telah menzhalimi diri mereka sendiri kecuali jika kalian menangis, karena dikhawatirkan kalian terkena musibah sebagaimana mereka mendapatkannya". Kemudian Beliau menutup kepala dan wajah Beliau sedangkan Beliau berada di atas tunggangan

Salim b. Abdullah'ın babasından r.a. rivayet ettiğine göre Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem Hicr'den geçerken şöyle buyurdu: "Zulmedenlerin kaldıkları yerlere onlara isabet eden size isabet etmesin diye ancak ağlayanlar olarak giriniz." Daha sonra bineğin üzerinde olduğu halde elbisesi ile iyice örtündü

Sahih al-Bukhari 3380, Book 60, Prophets, Hadith 54. 1 min read

What it means

When passing by the dwellings of Thamūd, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade entering the dwellings of those punished people, who wronged themselves, or visiting them, unless the one entering is weeping and reflecting upon their fate, out of fear that the same punishment that befell them might befall him. Then, he commanded his mount to hasten and passed quickly, leaving the area behind.

What it teaches

  • Reflection on the conditions of those whom Allah Almighty destroyed, being cautious of what they fell into, and being wary of heedlessness in contemplating the verses.
  • The dwellings of these punished people should not be inhabited after them, nor should they be taken as a place of residence, because a permanent inhabitant cannot remain constantly weeping, and it was forbidden to enter these places except in this state.
  • An-Nawawi said: It encourages vigilance when passing by the dwellings of the wrongdoers and places of punishment, similar to hastening through the valley of Muhassir, where the companions of the elephant perished. Therefore, one should be vigilant, fearful, weeping, and reflecting on their fate, seeking refuge with Allah from such an end.
  • The prohibition and warning apply to the dwellings of Thamūd and others like them from all the nations that were afflicted with punishment.
  • The prohibition of taking such places and areas for tourism, recreation, or similar purposes.
