حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ

قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ رضى الله عنه جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ تَقُولُ فِي رَجُلٍ أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا وَلَمْ يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ».

تَابَعَهُ جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ قَرْمٍ وَأَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

A man came to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and said, “O Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)! What do you say about a man who loves some people but cannot catch up with their good deeds?” The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “Everyone will be with those whom he loves.”

‘আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু মাস‘ঊদ (রাঃ) বলেছেনঃ এক ব্যক্তি রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর নিকট এসে জিজ্ঞেস করলঃ হে আল্লাহর রাসূল! এমন ব্যক্তির ব্যাপারে আপনি কী বলেন, যে ব্যক্তি কোন দলকে ভালবাসে, কিন্তু (‘আমলের ক্ষেত্রে) তাদের সমান হতে পারেনি? তিনি বললেনঃ মানুষ যাকে ভালবাসে সে তারই সাথী হবে। [৬১৬৮; মুসলিম ৪৫/৫০/, হাঃ ২৬৪০, আহমাদ ১৮১১৩]

ہم سے قتیبہ بن سعید نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے جریر بن عبدالحمید نے بیان کیا، ان سے اعمش نے، ان سے ابووائل نے اور ان سے عبداللہ بن مسعود نے کہ ایک شخص رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں حاضر ہوا اور عرض کیا: یا رسول اللہ! آپ کا اس شخص کے بارے میں کیا ارشاد ہے جو ایک جماعت سے محبت رکھتا ہے لیکن ان سے میل نہیں ہو سکا ہے؟

نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ انسان اس کے ساتھ ہے جس سے وہ محبت رکھتا ہے۔ اس روایت کی متابعت جریر بن حازم، سلیمان بن قرم اور ابوعوانہ نے اعمش سے کی، ان سے ابووائل نے، ان سے عبداللہ بن مسعود نے اور ان سے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Qutaibah bin Sa'id] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Jarir] dari [Al A'masy] dari [Abu Wa`il] dia berkata; [Abdullah bin Mas'ud] radliallahu 'anhu berkata; "Seorang laki-laki datang kepada Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam seraya bertanya; "Wahai Rasulullah, bagaimana anda mengatakan mengenai seseorang yang mencintai suatu kaum, namun dia sendiri belum pernah bertemu dengan kaum tersebut?"

maka Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Seseorang akan bersama dengan yang di cintainya." Hadits ini juga diperkuat oleh [Jarir bin Hazim] dan [Sulaiman bin Qarm] serta [Abu 'Awanah] dari [Al A'masy] dari [Abu Wa`il] dari [Abdullah] dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam

Abdullah İbn Mes'ud r.a.'dan rivayete göre; "Bir adam Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'e gelerek: Ey Allah'ın Rasulü, bir topluluğu sevmekle birlikte onlara erişemeyen kimse hakkında nasıl açıklamada bulunursunuz, diye sordu. Bunun üzerine Resulullah Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem: Kişi sevdiği ile beraberdir, buyurdu

What it means

In the Hereafter, one will be with those whom he used to love in the worldly life. This Hadīth encourages having strong love for the messengers of Allah, the righteous people, and their followers according to their ranks. It also warns against loving those who oppose them. Love is a proof of one's strong relationship and connection with the one whom he loves, his agreement with his morals, and following his example.

It is a proof of these things and leads to them as well. Also, whoever loves Allah, the Almighty, that very love is something that brings one closer to Him. Indeed, Allah is the Most Appreciative. He grants the one seeking His closeness a multiplied amount of what one exerts. Being with those whom one loves does not necessarily mean being equal in status or position.

That differs according to one's good deeds and profitable actions. Being "with" them occurs by their mere sharing in something, not necessarily everything. If it happens that all enter Paradise, then they are all with each other, even if the degrees vary. So, whoever loves the Messenger (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) or one of the believers, then he will be with him in Paradise by his good intention, because it is the fundamental element, and actions are subordinate to it.

It is not necessarily understood that being with someone means occupying the same degree as his, or receiving the same reward as his from all aspects.
