حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، قَالَ: وَأَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ

قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَسَلِ وَالْجُبْنِ وَالْهَرَمِ وَالْبُخْلِ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَمِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used to say: “ O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from incapacity, from indolence, from cowardice, from senility, from miserliness, and I seek refuge in Thee from the torment of the grave and from trial of the life and death.”

মুহাম্মাদ ইবনু রাফি (রহঃ) ..... আবূ হুরায়রাহ (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ "মানব সন্তানের প্রতিটি নেক কাজের সাওয়াব দশ গুণ থেকে সাতশ গুণ পর্যন্ত বাড়িয়ে দেয়া হয়।"

মহান আল্লাহ বলেন, "আদম সন্তানের যাবতীয় আমল তার নিজের জন্য কিন্তু সিয়াম (রোজা/রোযা) বিশেষ করে আমার জন্যেই রাখা হয়। আর আমি নিজেই এর প্রতিদান দিব।" সুতরাং যখন তোমাদের কারো সওমের দিন আসে সে যেন ঐ দিন অশ্লীল কথাবার্তা না বলে এবং অনর্থক শোরগোল না করে। যদি কেউ তাকে গালি দেয় অথবা তার সাথে বিবাদ করতে চায়, সে যেন বলে, “আমি একজন সিয়াম পালনকারী।

সে মহান আল্লাহর শপথ, যার হাতে মুহাম্মাদের জীবন! সিয়াম পালনকারীদের মুখের দুর্গন্ধ কিয়ামতের দিন আল্লাহর কাছে কস্তুরীর সুগন্ধির চেয়েও উত্তম হবে। আর সিয়াম পালনকারীদের জন্য দুটি আনন্দ রয়েছে। এর মাধ্যমে সে অনাবিল আনন্দ লাভ করে। একটি হলো যখন সে ইফতার করে তখন ইফতারীর মাধ্যমে আনন্দ পায় আর দ্বিতীয়টি হলো যখন সে তার প্রভুর সাথে মিলিত হবে তখন সে তার সিয়ামের জন্য আনন্দিত হবে।"

عطاء نے ابو صالح الزیا ت سے روایت کی ، انھوں نے حضرت ابو ہریرہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے سنا ، کہہ رہے تھے : رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فر ما یا : " اللہ عزوجل نے فر ما یا : ابن آدم کا ہرعمل اس کے لیے ہے سوائے روزے کے ، وہ میرے لیے ہے اور میں ہی اس کی جزادوں گا ۔

اور روزہ ڈھال ہے لہٰذا جب تم میں سے کسی کے روزے کا دن ہو تو وہ اس دن فحش گفتگو نہ کرے اور نہ شور وغل کرے ۔ اگر کو ئی اسے برا بھلا کہے یا اس سے جھگڑا کرے تو وہ کہہ دے : میں روزہ دار ہوں ، میں روزہ دار ہوں ۔ اس ذات کی قسم جس کے ہاتھ میں محمد صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی جا ن ہے!قیامت کے دن روزہ دار کے منہ کی بو اللہ کے نزدیک کستوری کی خوشبو سے بھی زیادہ پسندیدہ ہو گی ۔

اور روزہ دار کے لیے دوخوشی کے موقع ہیں وہ ان دونوں پر خوش ہو تا ہے : جب وہ ( روزہ ) افطار کرتا ہے تو اپنے افطار سے خوش ہو تا ہے اور جب اپنے رب کو ملے گا تو اپنے روزے ( کی وجہ ) سے خوش ہو گا ۔

Dan telah menceritakan kepadaku [Muhammad bin Rafi'] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdurrazaq] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Ibnu Juraij] telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Atha`] dari [Abu Shalih Az Zayyat] bahwa ia mendengar [Abu Hurairah] radliallahu 'anhu berkata; Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Allah 'azza wajalla telah berfirman; 'Setiap amal anak Adam adalah teruntuk baginya kecuali puasa.

Puasa itu adalah bagi-Ku, dan Akulah yang akan memberinya pahala.' Dan puasa itu adalah perisai. Apabila kamu puasa, maka janganlah kamu merusak puasamu dengan rafats, dan jangan pula menghina orang. Apabila kamu dihina orang atau pun diserang, maka katakanlah, 'Sesungguhnya saya sedang berpuasa.' Demi Allah, yang jiwa Muhammad ada di tangan-Nya.

Sesungguhnya bau mulut orang yang berpuasa lebih harum di sisi Allah pada hari kiamat kelak daripada wanginya kesturi. Dan bagi mereka yang berpuasa ada dua kebahagiaan. Ia merasa senang saat berbuka lantaran puasanya, dan senang pula saat berjumpa dengan Rabbnya juga karena puasanya

Bana Muhammed b. Râfi' rivayet etti. (Dediki) Bize Abdürrazzâk rivayet etti. (Dediki) Bize İbni Cüreyc haber verdi. (Dediki): Bana Ata', Ebû Sâhil-i Zeyyât'tan naklen haber verdi ki, Ebû Hureyre (Radiyallahû anh)'ı şöyle derken işittim: ResûluIIah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) şöyle buyurudular : «Allah (Azze ve Cell) Adem oğlunun her ameli kendinindir.

Yalnız oruç müstesna. Çünkü o benimdir, onun mükâfaatını verecek olan da benim, buyurmuştur. Oruç bir kalkandır. Birinizin oruç tuttuğu bir gün olursa, o gün kötü söz söylemesin ve gürültü çıkarmasın. Şayet kendisine birisi söğer yahut kavga ederse : — Ben oruçlu bir kimseyim, deyiversin. Muhammedin nefsi yed-i kudretinde olan Allah'a yemin ederim ki oruçlunun ağız kokusu kıyamet günü Allah indinde misk kokusundan daha güzel olacaktır.

Oruçlu için sevineceği iki ferah vardır. İftar ettiği vakit iftarına sevinir, bir de Rabbine kavuştuğu vakit orucuna sevinir.»

What it means

This Hadīth is one of the comprehensively precise statements of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) as he sought refuge with Allah from a number of evils and obstacles that interrupt the servant's advance along the path to Allah. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sought refuge from "incapacity and laziness" which are both hindrances to movement.

Failing to perform an act may be caused by the person's lack of resolve or willingness to do the act; in other words, laziness. A lazy person is someone with the least resolve and desire to do something. However, in some cases the reason for not doing an act is that the person lacks the ability to do it, and this is what is meant by incapacity.

"Cowardice and miserliness": these two characteristics prevent a person from performing his duties as well as doing righteous deeds. Cowardice weakens the heart, thus, the person does not enjoin what is good nor forbid what is evil because of the weakness of his heart and his attachment to people, apart from the Lord of the people.

A coward person acts only according to people's desires and orders. He devotes his servitude to people rather than to Allah, the Almighty. Miserliness encourages people to withhold their wealth and refrain from spending it. So, a miserly person does not fulfill the right of Allah by paying the obligatory Zakah, nor does he give the people their rights that they have over him regarding his wealth.

A miserly person is disliked by the people and by Allah. "Senility" means that a person reaches the most decrepit age, at which he starts to lose many of his senses and his body becomes weak. Therefore, he is unable to worship Allah the way he used to, and cannot bring benefit to his family. Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sought refuge from the punishment of the grave, which is true, and because it is true, he legislated for us seeking refuge from the punishment of the grave in every prayer (before Taslīm).

Finally, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sought refuge from the trials of life and death to include both worlds; the worldly life as well as the Hereafter. The trials of this life are its calamities and afflictions. The trials of the Hereafter include worrying about having a bad end of life and an evil destination, as well as the trial of being questioned by the two angels in the grave, and others.

In another narration, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "... and from the burden of heavy debt and the tyranny of men": both of them are forms of defeat and subjugation. Heavy debt is a stressful situation to the indebted person wherein he finds himself helpless. It is thus a from of defeat for the man, but for a rightful reason.

"The tyranny of men" means their oppression and overpowering, which is also a form of defeat but without a rightful reason.
