حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، (وَهُوَ ابْنُ زِيَادٍ) قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، وَرَأَى

رَجُلاً يَجُرُّ إِزَارَهُ فَجَعَلَ يَضْرِبُ الأَرْضَ بِرِجْلِهِ وَهُوَ أَمِيرٌ عَلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ جَاءَ الأَمِيرُ جَاءَ الأَمِيرُ. قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَنْظُرُ إِلَى مَنْ يَجُرُّ إِزَارَهُ بَطَرًا»

He saw a person whose lower garment bad been trailin. and he was striking the ground with his foot (conceitedly). He was the Amir of Bahrain and it was being said: Here comes the Amir, here comes the Amir. He (Abu Hurayrah) reported that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Allah will not look toward him who trails his lower garment out of pride.

আবূ বাকর ইবনু আবূ শায়বাহ, মুহাম্মাদ ইবনুল মুসান্না ও ইবনু বাশশার (রহঃ) ..... ইবনু আব্বাস (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ আমাকে পূবালী হাওয়ার সাহায্যে বিজয়ী করা হয়েছে অথচ আদ সম্প্রদায়কে পশ্চিমা বাতাসের মাধ্যমে ধ্বংস করা হয়েছে। (ইসলামী ফাউন্ডেশন ১৯৫৭, ইসলামীক সেন্টার)

مجاہد نے حضرت ابن عباس رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے ، انھوں نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے روایت کی کہ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا : " بادصبا ( مشرقی سمت سے چلنے والی ہوا ) سے میری مدد کی گئی ہے اور باددبور ( مغربی سمت سے چلنے والی ہوا ) سے قوم عاد کو ہلاک کیا گیا ۔

Bize Ebû Bekir b .Ebî Şeybe rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize Gunder, Şu'be'den rivayet etti. H. Bize Muhammet! b. El-Müsennâ ile ibni Beşşâr rivayet ettiler. Dedilerki: Bize Muhammed b. Ca'fer rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize Şu'be, Hakem'den, o da Mücâhid'den, o da İbni Abbas d an, o da Peygamber (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem)'den naklen rivayet ettiki, şöyle buyurmuşlar: «Ben, sabâ rüzgârı ile mansûr oldum. Ad kavmi ise batı rüzgârı ile helak edildiler.»

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that Allah Almighty does not look at the appearance and bodies of His servants, as to whether they are beautiful or ugly, big or small, and sound or sick. And He does not look at their wealth as to whether they possess much or little. Indeed, Allah Almighty does not punish His servants or hold them accountable for these matters and their different levels regarding them.

But He looks at their hearts and the piety, certitude, truthfulness, and sincerity existing therein or their intention to show off and attain a good reputation among people. He looks at their deeds and sees whether they are righteous or evil, and He gives the recompense accordingly.

What it teaches

  • We should be careful to mend our hearts and purify them of any bad traits.
  • Hearts become sound with sincerity, and deeds become sound by following the Prophet's example. It is both of them that Allah Almighty looks at and judges accordingly.
  • A person should not be deceived by wealth, beauty, body, or worldly appearances.
  • The Hadīth warns us against caring about outward appearance and failing to reform what is inside.
