حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى التَّمِيمِيُّ، وَأَبُو الرَّبِيعِ، وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ (وَاللَّفْظُ لِيَحْيَى)

قَالَ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ الآخَرَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَرَأَيْتَ الرَّجُلَ يَعْمَلُ الْعَمَلَ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَيَحْمَدُهُ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ: «تِلْكَ عَاجِلُ بُشْرَى الْمُؤْمِنِ»

It was said to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam): What is your opinion about the person who has done good deeds and the people praise him? He said: It is glad tidings for a believer (which he has received in this mortal world).

আবূ বাকর ইবনু আবূ শায়বাহ ও ইবনু নুমায়র (রহঃ) ..... আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু উমার (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত যে, জাহিলী যুগে লোকেরা আশূরার দিন সিয়াম (রোজা/রোযা) পালন করত। রমযানের সিয়াম (রোজা/রোযা) ফারয (ফরয) হওয়ার পূর্বে রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লামও এদিন সিয়াম (রোজা/রোযা) পালন করেছেন এবং মুসলিমগণও।

যখন রমযানের সিয়াম (রোজা/রোযা) ফারয (ফরয) হল তখন রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, আশূরার দিন আল্লাহর দিনসমূহের একটি দিন। সুতরাং যার ইচ্ছা সে এ দিন সিয়াম (রোজা/রোযা) পালন করবে, আর যার ইচ্ছা সে তা ছেড়ে দিবে।

ابو بکر بن ابی شیبہ ، عبداللہ بن نمیر ، ابن نمیر ، عبیداللہ ، نافع ، حضرت ابن عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ فرماتے ہیں کہ جاہلیت کے زمانے کے لوگ عاشورہ کے دن روزہ رکھتے تھے ۔ تو رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم اورمسلمانوں نے بھی رمضان کے روزے فرض ہونے سے پہلے اس کا روزہ رکھا جب ر مضان کے روزے فرض ہوگئے تو رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ عاشورہ اللہ کے دنوں میں سے ایک دن ہے تو جو چاہے عاشورہ کا روزہ رکھے اور جو چاہے اسے چھوڑ دے ۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Bakr bin Abu Syaibah] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdullah bin Numair] -dalam riwayat lain- Dan Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ibnu Numair] -lafazh darinya- Telah menceritakan kepada kami [bapakku] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ubaidullah] dari [Nafi'] telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Abdullah bin Umar] radliallahu 'anhuma, ia berkata; Orang-orang pada masa Jahiliyah berpuasa di hari 'Asyura`.

Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam dan kaum muslimin juga melakukannya sebelum diwajibkannya puasa Ramadlan. Ketiwa puasa Ramadlan diwajibkan, Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Hari 'Asyura` merupakan hari di antara hari-hari Allah, maka siapa yang ingin berpuasa di hari itu silahkan, dan siapa yang tidak, maka tidaklah mengapa."

Dan Telah menceritakannya kepada kami [Muhammad bin Al Mutsanna] dan [Zuhair bin Harb] keduanya berkata, Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya Al Qaththan] -dalam riwayat lain- Dan Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Bakr bin Abu Syaibah] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Usamah] keduanya dari [Ubaidullah] dengan isnad ini dan serupa dengan hadits di atas

Bize Ebû Bekir b. Ebî Şeybe rivayet etti. (Dediki) Bize Abdullah b. Numeyr rivayet eyledi. H. Bize İbni Numeyr de rivayet etti. Lafız onundur. (Dediki) Bize babam rivayet etti. (Dediki) Bize Ubeydullah, Nafi'den naklen rivayet etti. (Şöyle demiş) : Bana Abdullah b. Ömer (Radiyallahu anhûma) haber verdi ki, Câhiliyet devri halkı aşûra günü oruç tutarlarmış.

Onu Resulullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) ile müslümanlar da Ramazan orucu farz kılınmazdan önce tutmuşlar. Ramazan orucu farz kılınınca Resulullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem): «Şüphesiz ki aşûra, Allah'ın günlerinden bir gündür. Artık o gün dileyen oruç tutar, dileyen tutmaz.» buyurmuşlar

What it means

Here we are told of a man who does a righteous deed for the sake of Allah, without intending it for others. People, however, commend him and say that he is a charitable person, etc. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says that such an appreciation is an instant good news for the believer, because people are witnesses over Allah's creation, so their testimony does count.

That is why when a coffin passed by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions spoke well of the deceased, he said that they confirmed that he would be admitted to Paradise. Also, when another coffin passed by him and the Companions spoke badly of the deceased, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said that they confirmed that he would be admitted to Hell.

In both cases, he justified that people are Allah's witnesses on earth. So, the commendation that a believer gets from people for the good thing that he does is an instant good news for him in the world. However, the one who does something ostentatiously to draw people's attention and favorable remarks, has thus associated partners with Allah. This is what makes the other sincere person greatly different from him.
