حَدَّثَنِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ

قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَىُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهْوَ خَلَقَكَ». قُلْتُ: إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَعَظِيمٌ، قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىُّ قَالَ: «وَأَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ تَخَافُ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ مَعَكَ». قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَىُّ قَالَ: «أَنْ تُزَانِيَ حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ»

I asked the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), “What is the greatest sin in the Sight of Allah?” He said, “That you set up a rival unto Allah though He Alone created you.” I said, “That is indeed a great sin.” Then asked, “What is next?” He said, “To kill your son lest he should share your food with you.” I asked, “What is next?” He said, “To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbor.”

‘আবদুল্লাহ (ইবনু মাস‘ঊদ) (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-কে জিজ্ঞেস করলাম যে, কোন্ গুনাহ আল্লাহর কাছে সবচেয়ে বড়? তিনি বললেন, আল্লাহর জন্য অংশীদার দাঁড় করান। অথচ তিনি তোমাকে সৃষ্টি করেছেন।

আমি বললাম, এতো সত্যিই বড় গুনাহ। আমি বললাম, তারপর কোন্ গুনাহ? তিনি উত্তর দিলেন, তুমি তোমার সন্তানকে এই ভয়ে হত্যা করবে যে, সে তোমার সঙ্গে আহার করবে। আমি আরয করলাম, এরপর কোনটি?

তিনি উত্তর দিলেন, তোমার প্রতিবেশীর স্ত্রীর সঙ্গে তোমার ব্যভিচার করা। [৪৭৬১, ৬০০১, ৬৮১১, ৬৮৬১, ৭৫২০, ৭৫৩২; মুসলিম ১/৩৭, হাঃ ৮৬০]

ہم سے عثمان بن ابی شیبہ نے بیان کیا، کہا کہ ہم سے جریر نے بیان کیا، ان سے منصور نے، ان سے ابووائل نے، ان سے عمرو بن شرحبیل نے اور ان سے عبداللہ بن مسعود رضی اللہ عنہ نے بیان کیا کہ میں نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے پوچھا، اللہ کے نزدیک کون سا گناہ سب سے بڑا ہے؟

فرمایا اور یہ کہ تم اللہ کے ساتھ کسی کو برابر ٹھہراؤ حالانکہ اللہ ہی نے تم کو پید اکیا ہے۔ میں نے عرض کیا یہ تو واقعی سب سے بڑا گناہ ہے، پھر اس کے بعد کون سا گناہ سب سے بڑا ہے؟ فرمایا یہ کہ تم اپنی اولاد کو اس خوف سے مار ڈالو کہ وہ تمہارے ساتھ کھائیں گے۔

میں نے پوچھا اور اس کے بعد؟ فرمایا یہ کہ تم اپنے پڑوسی کی عورت سے زنا کرو۔

Telah menceritakan kepadaku ['Utsman bin Abu Syaibah] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Jarir] dari [Manshur] dari [Abu Wail] dari ['Amru bin Syurahbil] dari ['Abdullah] dia berkata; Aku bertanya kepada Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam; 'Dosa apakah yang paling besar di sisi Allah?

Beliau menjawab; 'Bila kamu menyekutukan Allah, padahal dialah yang menciptakanmu. Aku berkata; tentu itu sungguh besar.' Aku bertanya lagi; 'Kemudian apa? Beliau menjawab; 'Apabila kami membunuh anakmu karena takut membuat kelaparan.' Aku bertanya lagi; 'kemudian apa? ' beliau menjawab; 'Berzina dengan istri tetanggamu

Abdullah İbn Mes'lid'dan rivayet edildiğine göre, o şöyle demiştir: Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'e 'Allah katında en büyük günah hangisidir?' diye sordum. Allah Resulü Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem 'seni yarattığı halde Allah'a ortak koşmandır' buyurdu. 'Gerçekten bu büyük bir günahtır' dedim ve 'sonra hangisidir?' diye sordum.

Bunun üzerine 'yemeğine ortak olmasından korktuğun için çocuğunu öldürmendir' buyurdu. Son olarak 'sonra hangisidır?' diye sordum. O da 'Komşunun eşiyle zina etmendir' buyurdu." Hadisin geçtiği diğer yerler: 4761, 6001, 6811, 6861, 7520, 7532. Fethu'l-Bari Açıklaması: "Bile bile Allah'a ortaklar yakıştırmayın!"[Bakara 22] Ayetinin Tefsiri" ......el-endad kelimesi benzer anlamına gelen .......niddun kelimesinin çoğuludur.

İmam Buhar!, İbn Mes'Od'dan nakledilen bu hadisi "En Büyük Günah Hangisidir" başlığı altında zikretmiştir. Bu hadisin açıklaması "Tevh!d Bölümünde" gelecektir

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the gravest sins and he answered: The gravest sin is major Shirk (polytheism), which means setting up an equal or a rival to Allah in His worship, Lordship, or His names and attributes. Allah Almighty does not forgive this sin except through repentance. If one dies in this state of major Shirk, he will dwell in Hellfire forever.

The second gravest sin is killing one's child out of fear that he may share his food with him. So, killing a soul is unlawful, but the sin becomes graver when the killed person is a relative of the killer, and the gravity of the sin increases even more if the killer's motive is fear that the killed person would share with him the sustenance provided by Allah.

The third gravest sin is committing adultery with his neighbor's wife by trying to deceive her, so he can have sexual intercourse with her and make her submit to him. Adultery is unlawful but the sin becomes graver when committed with the wife of one's neighbor, whom one is ordered by Shariah to treat with kindness, benevolence, and good companionship.

What it teaches

  • Sins vary in terms of gravity and good deeds vary in terms of merit.
  • The gravest sin is associating partners with Allah Almighty, then killing one's child for fear that he may share his food with him, and then committing adultery with the wife of one's neighbor.
  • Sustenance lies in the Hand of Allah and He has guaranteed provision for His creatures.
  • Significance of the neighbor's rights and how harming him is much graver than harming anyone else.
  • The Creator is the One worthy of worship, alone with no partner.
