حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ

يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «كُلُّ أُمَّتِي مُعَافًى إِلاَّ الْمُجَاهِرِينَ، وَإِنَّ مِنَ الْمَجَانَةِ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ الرَّجُلُ بِاللَّيْلِ عَمَلاً، ثُمَّ يُصْبِحَ وَقَدْ سَتَرَهُ اللَّهُ، فَيَقُولَ: يَا فُلَانُ عَمِلْتُ الْبَارِحَةَ كَذَا وَكَذَا، وَقَدْ بَاتَ يَسْتُرُهُ رَبُّهُ وَيُصْبِحُ يَكْشِفُ سِتْرَ اللَّهِ عَنْهُ»

I heard the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) saying. “All the sins of my followers will be forgiven except those of the Mujahirin (those who commit a sin openly or disclose their sins to the people). An example of such disclosure is that a person commits a sin at night and though Allah screens it from the public, then he comes in the morning, and says, ‘O so-and-so, I did such-and-such (evil) deed yesterday,’ though he spent his night screened by his Lord (none knowing about his sin) and in the morning he removes Allah’s screen from himself.”

আবূ হুরাইরা (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-কে বলতে শুনেছি যে, আমার সকল উম্মাতকে মাফ করা হবে, তবে প্রকাশকারী ব্যতীত। আর নিশ্চয় এ বড়ই অন্যায় যে, কোন লোক রাতের বেলা অপরাধ করল যা আল্লাহ গোপন রাখলেন। কিন্তু সে সকাল হলে বলে বেড়াতে লাগল, হে অমুক! আমি আজ রাতে এই এই কাজ করেছি।

অথচ সে এমন অবস্থায় রাত কাটাল যে, আল্লাহ তার কর্ম লুকিয়ে রেখেছিলেন, আর সে ভোরে উঠে তার উপর আল্লাহর দেয়া আবরণ খুলে ফেলল। [মুসলিম ৫৩/৮, হাঃ ২৯৯০]

ہم سے عبدالعزیز بن عبداللہ نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے ابراہیم بن سعد نے، ان سے ان کے بھتیجے ابن شہاب نے، ان سے ابن شہاب (محمد بن مسلم) نے، ان سے سالم بن عبداللہ نے بیان کیا کہ میں نے ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ عنہ سے سنا، انہوں نے بیان کیا کہ میں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے سنا،

نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ میری تمام امت کو معاف کیا جائے گا سوا گناہوں کو کھلم کھلا کرنے والوں کے اور گناہوں کو کھلم کھلا کرنے میں یہ بھی شامل ہے کہ ایک شخص رات کو کوئی ( گناہ کا ) کام کرے اور اس کے باوجود کہ اللہ نے اس کے گناہ کو چھپا دیا ہے مگر صبح ہونے پر وہ کہنے لگے کہ اے فلاں!

میں نے کل رات فلاں فلاں برا کام کیا تھا۔ رات گزر گئی تھی اور اس کے رب نے اس کا گناہ چھپائے رکھا، لیکن جب صبح ہوئی تو وہ خود اللہ کے پردے کو کھولنے لگا۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ibrahim bin Sa'd] dari [Ibnu Akhi Ibnu Syihab] dari [Ibnu Syihab] dari [Salim bin Abdullah] dia berkata; saya mendengar [Abu Hurairah] berkata; saya mendengar Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Setiap umatku dimaafkan (dosanya) kecuali orang-orang menampak-nampakkannya dan sesungguhnya diantara menampak-nampakkan (dosa) adalah seorang hamba yang melakukan amalan di waktu malam sementara Allah telah menutupinya kemudian di waktu pagi dia berkata: 'Wahai fulan semalam aku telah melakukan ini dan itu, ' padahal pada malam harinya (dosanya) telah ditutupi oleh Rabbnya.

Ia pun bermalam dalam keadaan (dosanya) telah ditutupi oleh Rabbnya dan di pagi harinya ia menyingkap apa yang telah ditutupi oleh Allah

Ebu Hureyre'den, diyor ki: Ben Resulullah Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'i şöyle buyururken dinledim: "Ümmetimin hepsi ilahi affa mazhar olur. Ancak (günahları) açıktan açığa işleyenler müstesnadır. Şüphesiz bir adam geceleyin bir iş yapıp sonra Allah onu setretmiş olduğu halde sabahı edip de: Ey filan, ben dün şöyle şöyle yaptım, demesi de kötülüğün açıkça işlenmesi kabilindendir.

Böyle bir kişi, Rabbi kendisini setretmiş olduğu halde geceyi geçirmekle birlikte, sabahı edince Allah'ın, kendisi üzerindeki o setredici örtüsünü açıverir

Sahih al-Bukhari 6069, Book 78, Good Manners and Form (Al-Adab), Hadith 99. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) clarified that it is hoped for the Muslim sinner to be pardoned and forgiven by Allah except for the one who declares his sin out of boastfulness and rudeness. Such a person does not deserve pardon as he sins at night, then, although Allah conceals his sin, in the morning, he tells others of committing such-and-such sin the night before.

He spends his night screened by his Lord, but he removes Allah's screen in the morning and exposes himself.

What it teaches

  • The hideousness of publicizing sin after being concealed by Allah Almighty.
  • Publicizing sins entails spreading immorality among Muslims.
  • Whomever Allah screens in this life, He will screen in the Hereafter, which is a manifestation of Allah's extensive mercy towards His slaves.
  • Whoever is afflicted with a sin must cover himself and repent to Allah.
  • The terrible guilt of those who publicize sins on purpose and who, therefore, miss the chance of being forgiven.
