حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، كِلَاهُمَا عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ، (وَهَذَا حَدِيثُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ)

قَالَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ بَدَأَ بِالْخُطْبَةِ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ مَرْوَانُ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ الصَّلَاةُ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ.

فَقَالَ قَدْ تُرِكَ مَا هُنَالِكَ. فَقَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ أَمَّا هَذَا فَقَدْ قَضَى مَا عَلَيْهِ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ رَأَى مِنْكُمْ مُنْكَرًا فَلْيُغَيِّرْهُ بِيَدِهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَبِلِسَانِهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَبِقَلْبِهِ وَذَلِكَ أَضْعَفُ الإِيمَانِ»

It was Marwan who initiated (the practice) of delivering khutbah (address) before the prayer on the Id day. A man stood up and said: Prayer should precede khutbah. He (Marwan) remarked, This (practice) has been done away with.

Upon this Abu Said remarked: This man has performed (his duty) laid on him. I heard the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) as saying: He who amongst you sees something abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not strength enough to do it, then he should do it with his tongue, and if he has not strength enough to do it, (even) then he should (abhor it) from his heart, and that is the least of faith.

۔ حمزہ زیات سے روایت ہے ، کہا : مرہ ہمدانی نے حارث سے کوئی بات سنی تو اس سے کہا : تم دروازے ہی پر بیٹھو ( اندر نہ آؤ ) ۔ پھر وہ ( گھر میں ) داخل ہوئے اور اپنی تلوار اٹھا لی تو حارث نے برا انجام محسوس کر لیا اور چل دیا ۔

Bize Kuteybetü'bnü Saîd rivâyet etti. (Dedi ki): Bize Cerîr, Hamze-tü'z Zeyyât'dan naklen rivâyet etti. Şöyle dedi: el-Hâris'den bir şey işitti. Bunun üzerine kendisine: şu kapıda otur (da beni bekle) dedi. Mürra hemen içeriye dalarak kılıcını aldı. Fakat el-Hâris işin fenaya varacağını sezerek hemen oradan defoldu

What it means

What it teaches

• This Hadīth is a key source in outlining the levels of changing evil deeds.
• We are enjoined to adopt gradation in forbidding evil deeds, each according to his capacity and ability.
• Forbidding evil deeds is a fundamental element in religion, and it does not cease to be due upon everyone. Rather, every Muslim is obligated in accordance with his ability.
• Enjoining what is right and forbidding what is evil is one of the characteristics of faith, and faith increases and decreases.
• For forbidding evil, it is required to know that the act in question is evil.
• For changing something evil, it is required that this does not lead to greater evil.
• Forbidding evil has certain etiquettes and requirements that should be learned by Muslims.
• Forbidding evil needs a Shar‘i policy, knowledge, and insight.
• The lack of disapproval of something evil within the heart is an indication of weak faith.
