حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، وَأَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ وَوَكِيعٌ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا يَحِلُّ دَمُ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ بِإِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ الثَّيِّبُ الزَّانِ وَالنَّفْسُ بِالنَّفْسِ وَالتَّارِكُ لِدِينِهِ الْمُفَارِقُ لِلْجَمَاعَةِ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: It is not permissible to take the life of a Muslim who bears testimony (to the fact that there is no god but Allah, and I am the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), but in one of the three cases: the married adulterer, a life for life, and the deserter of his Din (Islam), abandoning the community.

ইয়াহইয়া ইবনু ইয়াহইয়া (রহঃ) ... আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু উমর (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। উন্মুল মুমিনীন হাফসাহ তাকে বললেন যে, ফজরের সালাতের আযানের পর মুয়াযযিন যখন থেমে যেত এবং ভোরের আলো প্রকাশ পেত তখন রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম ফারয (ফরয) সালাতের ইকামাত দেয়ার পূর্বে সংক্ষিপ্তভাবে দু' রাকাআত সালাত আদায় করতেন। (ইসলামী ফাউন্ডেশন ১৫৪৬, ইসলামীক সেন্টার)

امام مالک ؒ نے نافع سے اور انھوں نے حضرت عبداللہ بن عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے روایت کی کہ ام المومنین حضرت حفصہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا نے انھیں بتایاکہ جب موذن صبح کی اذان کہہ کر خاموش ہوجاتا اور صبح ظاہر ہوجاتی تو رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نماز کی اقامت سے پہلے دو مختصر رکعتیں پڑھتے ۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya bin Yahya] katanya; aku pernah menyetorkan hapalan kepada [Malik] dari [Nafi'] dari [Ibnu Umar] bahwa [Hafsah Umul Mukminin] mengabarinya, bahwa jika Mu'adzin diam dari adzan shalat shubuh, dan shubuhpun telah nampak, maka Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam melakukan shalat dua rakaat ringan sebelum shalat ditegakkan."

Dan telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya bin Yahya] dan [Qutaibah] dan [Ibnu Rumh], dari [Al Laits bin Sa'd] (dan diriwayatkan dari jalur lain) telah menceritakan kepadaku [Zuhair bin Harb] dan ['Ubaidullah bin Sa'id], keduanya berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya] dari ['Ubaidullah], (dan diriwayatkan dari jalur lain) telah menceritakan kepadaku [Zuhair bin Harb] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ismail] dari [Ayyub] semuanya dari [Nafi'] dengan sanad seperti ini sebagaimana yang dikatakan Malik

Bize, Yahya b. Yahya rivayet etti. Dediki: Mâlik'e, Nâfi'den dinlediğim, onun da İbni Ömer'den naklettiği, ona da Ünımü'l-Mü'minin Hafsa'nın haber verdiği şu hadîsi okudum: Resûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) ; Müezzin, sabah namazı içîn okuduğu ezandan (Fârig olup) sustuğu ve sabah (iyice) sezildiği vakit (farz) namaz kılınmadan evvel hafif ikî rek'âf (nafile) kılarmış

What it means

The Prophet (ﷺ) clarified that a Muslim is inviolable unless he commits one of the three: First: He who commits adultery after being legally married, it is lawful that he be stoned to death. Second: He who intentionally kills an inviolable person unlawfully is killed with the relevant conditions. Third: He who separates from the Islamic body, either by leaving his religion of Islam altogether by apostatizing, or departs from it by abandoning part of it, without apostasy, like those who engage in transgression, highway robbery, and rebels such as the Kharijites and others.

What it teaches

  • It is prohibited to do any of these three things. He who commits any of them deserves the death penalty, either for Kufr (disbelief), which applies to apostates from Islam, or as a legal punishment, which applies in the cases of a married adulterer and an intentional murderer.
  • It is obligatory to safeguard our honor and keep it untainted.
  • The Hadīth indicates that it is obligatory to respect Muslims and that their blood is inviolable.
  • We are urged to stick to the Muslim community and not to separate from it.
  • The excellence of the Prophet's method of teaching (ﷺ) as his speech is sometimes divided into points, such that the issues are listed and combined. This is quicker to memorize.
  • Allah legislated legal punishments to deter criminals, protect society, and preserve it from crimes.
  • Implementation of the legal punishments lies within the authority of the ruler.
  • The causes that warrant killing are more than three, but they do not fall outside these categories. Ibn al-‘Arabi al-Māliki said: They never go beyond these three under any circumstance; for whoever practices sorcery or insults a Prophet of Allah has committed disbelief, and thus falls under the category of the one who has abandoned his religion.
