حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، وَحَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ، كِلَاهُمَا عَنْ أَبِي الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَ عَبْدٌ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ أَبِيهِ

قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عُثْمَانَ فَدَعَا بِطَهُورٍ فَقَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَا مِنِ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ تَحْضُرُهُ صَلَاةٌ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فَيُحْسِنُ وُضُوءَهَا وَخُشُوعَهَا وَرُكُوعَهَا إِلاَّ كَانَتْ كَفَّارَةً لِمَا قَبْلَهَا مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ مَا لَمْ يُؤْتِ كَبِيرَةً وَذَلِكَ الدَّهْرَ كُلَّهُ»

I was with Uthman, and he called for ablution water and said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) say: When the time for a prescribed prayer comes, if any Muslim performs ablution well and offers his prayer with humility and bowing, it will be an expiation for his past sins, so long as he has not committed a major sin; and this applies for all times.

‘আলী ইবনু হুজুর আস সা’দী (রহঃ) ..... শা'বী (রহঃ) থেকে বর্ণনা করেন যে, তিনি জারীর (রাযিঃ) কে বলতে শুনেছেন, যে দাস তার মনিবের কাছে থেকে পালিয়ে গেল, সে কুফরী করল। যতক্ষণ না সে তার প্রভুর কাছে ফিরে আসে। মানসূর বলেন, আল্লাহর কসম! এ হাদীস নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়া সাল্লাম থেকে বর্ণিত হয়েছে, কিন্তু এখানে বাসরায় আমার থেকে এ হাদীস বর্ণিত হোক তা আমি অপছন্দ করি।

منصور بن عبدالرحمٰن نے شعبی سےروایت کی ، انہوں نے کہا کہ میں جریر ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ کو کہتے ہوئے سنا : ’’ جو غلام اپنے مالکوں سے بھاگ گیا ، اس نےکفر کا ارتکاب کیا یہاں تک کہ ان کی طرف لوٹ آئے ۔

‘ ‘ ( نہ یہ کہ دوبارہ مسلمان ہو ۔ ) منصور نے کہا : اللہ کی قسم ! یہ حدیث نبی اکرمﷺ سے روایت کی گئی ہے لیکن میں ناپسند کرتا ہوں کہ یہاں ( بصرہ میں ) مجھ سےیہ ( اس طرح مرفوعاً ) روایت کی جائے ۔ ( کیونکہ بصرہ کےخارجی اس سے مطلق کفر کا استدلال کریں گے ۔)

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ali bin Hujr as-Sa'di] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ismail] -yaitu Ibnu Ulayyah- dari [Manshur bin Abdurrahman] dari [asy-Sya'bi] dari [Jarir] bahwa dia mendengarnya berkata, "Budak mana saja yang melarikan diri dari tuannya, maka dia telah kafir hingga dia kembali kepada mereka." Manshur berkata, 'Demi Allah, ia diriwayatkan dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, hanya saja saya benci untuk diriwayatkan suatu hadits dariku di sini, di Bashrah

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) clarified that no Muslim who, when the time for an obligatory prayer becomes due, perfects and completes its ablution, then prays with humility in such a way that his heart and all of his body organs are devoted to Allah and heedful of His greatness, and he perfects the acts of prayer like bowing, prostration and other actions, except that this prayer will serve as an expiation for the preceding minor sins as long as he has not committed a major sin; and this merit applies to all times and every prayer.

What it teaches

  • The prayer that expiates sins is that in which one perfects its ablution and performs it with humility and which is fully devoted to Allah Almighty.
  • The merit of performing acts of worship regularly and that these are a means of forgiving minor sins.
  • The merit of perfecting ablution and excellently performing prayer with humility.
  • The importance of avoiding major sins to have the minor sins forgiven.
  • Major sins are forgiven only through repentance.
