حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنِي إِيَاسُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الأَكْوَعِ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، حَدَّثَهُ

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَكَلَ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشِمَالِهِ فَقَالَ: «كُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ». قَالَ: لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ قَالَ: «لَا اسْتَطَعْتَ». مَا مَنَعَهُ إِلاَّ الْكِبْرُ. قَالَ فَمَا رَفَعَهَا إِلَى فِيهِ

A person ate in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) with his left hand, whereupon he said: Eat with your right hand. He said: I cannot do that, whereupon he (the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)) said: May you not be able to do that. It was vanity that prevented him from doing it, and he could not raise it (the right hand) up to his mouth.

মুহাম্মাদ ইবনু রাফি' ও 'আবদ ইবনু হুমায়দ (রহঃ) ..... আমর ইবনু দীনার (রহঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি জাবির ইবনু আবদুল্লাহ (রাযিঃ) কে বলতে শুনেছেন। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম জুমুআর দিন মিম্বারের উপর খুতবাহ দানরত অবস্থায় জনৈক ব্যক্তি মসজিদে এসে উপস্থিত হ'ল। তিনি তাকে জিজ্ঞেস করেন, তুমি কি দু’রাকাআত সালাত আদায় করেছ? সে বলল, না। তিনি বলেন, সালাত আদায় কর। (ইসলামী ফাউন্ডেশন ১৮৯১, ইসলামীক সেন্টার)

ابن جریج نے کہا : ہمیں عمرو بن دینار نے خبر دی کہ انھوں نے حضرت جابر بن عبداللہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے سنا ، وہ کہہ رہے تھے : ایک آدمی آیا جب کہ نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم منبر پر تھے ، جمعے کے دن خطبہ ارشاد فرمارہے تھے تو آپ نے اس سے پوچھا : " کیا تم نے دو رکعتیں پڑھ لی ہیں؟ " اس نے کہا : نہیں ۔ آپ نے فرمایا : " پڑھ لو ۔

Dan telah menceritakan kepadaku [Muhammad bin Rafi'] dan [Abdu bin Humaid] -Ibnu Rafi' berkata- telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdurrazaq] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Ibnu Juraij] telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Amru bin Dinar] bahwa ia mendengar [Jabir bin Abdullah] berkata; Seorang laki-laki datang, sementara Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam sedang menyampaikan khutbah Jum'at di atas mimbar.

Maka beliau pun bertanya padanya: "Apakah kamu telah shalat dua raka'at?" laki-laki itu menjawab, "belum." Beliau bersabda: "Ruku'lah (shalatlah)

Bana Muhammed b. Râfi' ile Abd b. Humeyd rivayet ettiler. İbni Râfi' Dediki: Bize Abdürrezzâk rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize İbni Cüreyc haber verdi. (Dediki): Bana Amr b. Dînâr haber verdi. O da Câbir b. Abdillâh'ı şöyle derken işitmiş: Nebi (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) cum'a günü minberde hutbe okurken bir adam geldi. Resûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) ona : «Sen iki rek'ât namaz kıldın mı?»

diye sordu Gelen zât : — Hayır; cevâbını verince Resulullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem): «Kıl!» buyurdular

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) saw a man eating with his left hand, so, he ordered him to eat with his right hand. The man lied and said, out of arrogance, that he could not do this. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated against him to be deprived of the ability to eat with his right hand.

Allah fulfilled His Prophet's supplication and the man's right hand was paralyzed and he could not raise it to his mouth after that with any food or drink.

What it teaches

  • It is obligatory to eat with the right hand and it is prohibited to eat with the left hand.
  • Disdaining to apply the Shariah rulings makes one worthy of punishment.
  • Allah Almighty honored His Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) by answering his supplication.
  • The legitimacy of enjoining good and forbidding evil in all situations even while eating.
