حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ طَلْحَةَ بْنَ خِرَاشٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ

رضى الله عنهما يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «أَفْضَلُ الذِّكْرِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَفْضَلُ الدُّعَاءِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “The best remembrance is: ‘there is none worthy of worship except Allah (La ilaha illallah)’ and the best supplication is: ‘All praise is due to Allah (Al-hamdulillah).’”

জাবির ইবনু আবদুল্লাহ (রাযিঃ) বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহঃ-কে আমি বলতে শুনেছিঃ “লা-ইলা-হা ইল্লাল্লাহ" অতি উত্তম যিকর এবং "আলহামদু লিল্লাহ" অধিক উত্তম দুআ। হাসানঃ ইবনু মাজাহ (হাঃ ৩৮০০)। আবূ ঈসা বলেন, হাদীসটি হাসান গারীব। এ হাদীসটি আমরা শুধু মূসা ইবনু ইবরাহীমের সূত্রে অবগত হয়েছি। আলী ইবনুল মাদীনী প্রমুখ মূসা ইবনু ইবরাহিম হতে হাদীসটি রিওয়য়াত করেছেন।

جابر بن عبداللہ رضی الله عنہما کہتے ہیں کہ میں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو فرماتے ہوئے سنا: ”سب سے بہتر ذکر «لا إلہ إلا اللہ» ہے، اور بہترین دعا «الحمد للہ» ہے“ ۱؎۔ امام ترمذی کہتے ہیں: ۱- یہ حدیث حسن غریب ہے، ہم اسے صرف موسیٰ بن ابراہیم کی روایت سے جانتے ہیں، ۲- علی بن مدینی اور کئی نے یہ حدیث موسیٰ بن ابراہیم سے روایت کی ہے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya bin Habib bin 'Arabi] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Musa bin Ibrahim bin Katsir Al Anshari] ia berkata; saya mendengar [Thalhah bin Khirasy], ia berkata; saya mendengar [Jabir bin Abdullah radhillahu 'anhuma] ia berkata; saya mendengar Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Sebaik-baik dzikir adalah LAA ILAAHA ILLALLAAH (Tidak ada tuhan yang berhak disembah kecuali Allah) dan sebaik-baik doa adalah AL HAMDULILLAAHI (Segala puji bagi Allah)."

Abu Isa berkata; hadits ini adalah hadits hasan gharib, kami tidak mengetahuinya kecuali dari hadits Musa bin Ibrahim. [Ali bin Al Madini] dan lebih dari satu orang telah meriwayatkan hadits ini dari [Musa bin Ibrahim]

Câbir (r.a.), Nebi (s.a.v)’in şöyle söylediğini işitmiştir: Zikrin en değerlisi “La ilahe illallah” tır. Duânın en değerlisi ise “Elhamdilillah” tır. Diğer tahric: İbn Mâce, Edeb Tirmizî: Bu hadis hasen garib olup sadece Musa b. İbrahim’in rivâyetiyle bilmekteyiz. Ali b. el Medîni ve pek çok kimse bu hadisi Musa b. İbrahim’den rivâyet etmişlerdir

The note in this edition

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ مُوسَى بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. وَقَدْ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs us that the best dhikr (remembrance of Allah) is Lā ilāha illa Allah (there is no god but Allah), which means that no one is worthy of worship except Allah; and that the best supplication is Alhamdulillah (praise be to Allah), and it means acknowledgment that Allah Almighty is the Bestower of favors and the One worthy of possessing the attributes of perfection and excellence.

What it teaches

  • This urges us to mention Allah often by uttering the testimony of faith and the supplication of praise.
