حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «أَمَا يَخْشَى أَحَدُكُمْ أَوْ لَا يَخْشَى أَحَدُكُمْ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ قَبْلَ الإِمَامِ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ اللَّهُ رَأْسَهُ رَأْسَ حِمَارٍ أَوْ يَجْعَلَ اللَّهُ صُورَتَهُ صُورَةَ حِمَارٍ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “Isn’t he who raises his head before the Imam afraid that Allah may transform his head into that of a donkey or his figure (face) into that of a donkey?”

আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাযি.) হতে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেন, তোমাদের কেউ যখন ইমামের পূর্বে মাথা উঠিয়ে ফেলে, তখন সে কি ভয় করে না যে, আল্লাহ্ তা‘আলা তার মাথা গাধার মাথায় পরিণত করে দিবেন, তার আকৃতি গাধার আকৃতি করে দেবেন। (মুসলিম ৪/২৫, হাঃ ৪২৭ আহমাদ ১০৫৫১)

ہم سے حجاج بن منہال نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا کہ ہم سے شعبہ نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے محمد بن زیاد سے بیان کیا، کہا کہ میں نے ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ عنہ سے سنا، وہ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے روایت کرتے تھے کہ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کیا تم میں وہ شخص جو ( رکوع یا سجدہ میں ) امام سے پہلے اپنا سر اٹھا لیتا ہے اس بات سے نہیں ڈرتا کہ کہیں اللہ پاک اس کا سر گدھے کے سر کی طرح بنا دے یا اس کی صورت کو گدھے کی سی صورت بنا دے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Hajjaj bin Minhal] berkata, telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dari [Muhammad bin Ziyad], "Aku mendengar [Abu Hurairah] dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Tidakkah salah seornag dari kalian takut, atau apakah salah seorang dari kalian tidak takut, jika ia mengangkat kepalanya sebelum Imam, Allah akan menjadikan kepalanya seperti kepala keledai, atau Allah akan menjadikan rupanya seperti bentuk keledai?

Ebu Hureyre (r.a.)'den nakledildiğine göre Resulullah Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem şöyle buyurmuştur: "Siz'den biriniz başını imam'dan önce kaldırdığı takdirde başının Allah tarafından eşek başına döndürülmesinden veya şeklinin Allah tarafından eşek şekline sokulmasından korkmaz mı?

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) clarifies the serious threat to the one who raises his head in prayer before his Imam, as Allah may transform his head into that of a donkey or transform his shape into that of a donkey.

What it teaches

  • There are four conditions for a person led in prayer in relation to the Imam, three of which are prohibited and they are: making a movement before the Imam, making a movement simultaneously with the Imam, and delaying in following the Imam. The prescribed condition; however, is: acting immediately after the Imam.
  • It is obligatory for the one led in prayer to follow the Imam.
  • The threat to transform the shape of the one who raises his head before the Imam to that of a donkey is possible and is a form of deformation.
