حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ الْمُكْتِبُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ ثَابِتِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَطَاءَ بْنَ قُرَّةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ ضَمْرَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ

يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «أَلَا إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا مَلْعُونَةٌ مَلْعُونٌ مَا فِيهَا إِلاَّ ذِكْرَ اللَّهِ وَمَا وَالَاهُ وَعَالِمًا أَوْ مُتَعَلِّمًا»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “Lo! Indeed the world is cursed. What is in it is cursed, except for remembrance of Allah, what is conducive to that, the knowledgeable person and the learning person.”

আবূ হুরাইরা (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত আছে, তিনি বলেন, আমি রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লামকে বলতে শুনেছিঃ দুনিয়া ও তার মাঝের সকলকিছুই অভিশপ্ত, কিন্তু আল্লাহ্ তা'আলার যিকির ও তার সাথে সংগতিপূর্ণ অন্যান্য আমল, আলিম ও ইলম অন্বেষণকারী এর ব্যতিক্রম। হাসান, ইবনু মা-জাহ (৪১১২)। আবূ ঈসা বলেন, এ হাদীসটি হাসান গরীব।

ابوہریرہ رضی الله عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ میں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو فرماتے ہوئے سنا: ”بیشک دنیا ملعون ہے اور جو کچھ دنیا میں ہے وہ بھی ملعون ہے، سوائے اللہ کی یاد اور اس چیز کے جس کو اللہ پسند کرتا ہے، یا عالم ( علم والے ) اور متعلم ( علم سیکھنے والے ) کے“ ۱؎۔ امام ترمذی کہتے ہیں: یہ حدیث حسن غریب ہے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Muhammad bin Hatim Al Muktib] telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Ali bin Tsabit] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdurrahman bin Tsabit bin Tsauban] berkata: Aku telah mendengar ['Atho` bin Qurroh] berkata: aku telah mendengar ['Abdullah bin Dlamrah] berkata: aku telah mendengar [Abu Hurairah] berkata: aku mendengar Rasulullah Shallallahu 'alaihi wa salam bersabda: " Ketahuilah sesungguhnya dunia itu terlaknat dan segala isinya pun juga terlaknat, kecuali dzikir kepada Allah dan apa yang berkaitan dengannya, dan orang yang alim atau orang yang belajar." Abu Isa berkata: Hadits ini hasan gharib

Ebû Hureyre (r.a.)’den rivâyete göre, şöyle demiştir: Rasûlullah (s.a.v.)’in şöyle buyurduğunu işittim: “Dikkat ediniz! Dünya ve içindekiler tümüyle mel'undur. Ancak Allah’ı anmak ve Allah’ın rızasını kazanmaya götüren şeylerle; Âlim olup, ilim öğrenip ve ilim öğreten başka… her şey ve herkes.” Diğer tahric: İbn Mâce, Zühd Tirmizî: Bu hadis hasen garibtir

The note in this edition

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed that the world and everything in it are detested by Allah, deemed blameworthy, forsaken, distanced, and whatever is in it is forsaken and not to be praised. This is because the world and everything in it distracts from Allah Almighty and leads away from Him, except for the remembrance of Allah and what aligns with and resembles it, which Allah loves, or a scholar well versed in religious knowledge who teaches it to people, or a knowledge seeker seeking such knowledge.

What it teaches

  • It is not permissible to curse the world unconditionally, as there are Hadīths that prohibit this. However, it is permissible to curse aspects of the world that lead away from Allah Almighty and distract from His obedience.
  • Everything in this world is mere play and amusement, except for the remembrance of Allah and what serves as a cause or aid in that.
  • Clarifying the merit of knowledge, scholars, and students.
  • Ibn Taymiyyah said: What is dispraised of the world is that which is unlawful in any form, or lawful if pursued for the sake of competition and pride, or what is acquired for the sake of boasting and disputing. Such things are detested by those who have understanding.
