حَدِيثُ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ الْهُجَيْمِيِّ (١) ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ١٥٩٥٥ - حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ الْجُرَيْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي السَّلِيلِ، عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ الْهُجَيْمِيِّ (١) ، قَالَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ مَرَّةً: عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ الْهُجَيْمِيِّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، قَالَ: لَقِيتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَعْضِ طُرُقِ الْمَدِينَةِ، وَعَلَيْهِ إِزَارٌ مِنْ قُطْنٍ مُنْبَتِرُ (٢) الْحَاشِيَةِ، فَقُلْتُ: عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَقَالَ: " إِنَّ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ تَحِيَّةُ الْمَوْتَى (٣) ، إِنَّ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ تَحِيَّةُ الْمَوْتَى، إِنَّ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ تَحِيَّةُ الْمَوْتَى، سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ، سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ " مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا هَكَذَا " قَالَ. سَأَلْتُ عَنِ الْإِزَارِ؟ فَقُلْتُ: أَيْنَ أَتَّزِرُ؟ فَأَقْنَعَ ظَهْرَهُ بِعَظْمِ (٤) سَاقِهِ، وَقَالَ: " هَاهُنَا اتَّزِرْ، فَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ، فَهَاهُنَا أَسْفَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ، فَهَاهُنَا، ، فَوْقَ الْكَعْبَيْنِ، فَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ مُخْتَالٍ فَخُورٍ " قَالَ: وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْمَعْرُوفِ؟ فَقَالَ: " لَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا، وَلَوْ أَنْ تُعْطِيَ صِلَةَ الْحَبْلِ، وَلَوْ أَنْ تُعْطِيَ شِسْعَ النَّعْلِ، وَلَوْ أَنْ تُفْرِغَ (١) مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي، وَلَوْ أَنْ تُنَحِّيَ الشَّيْءَ مِنْ طَرِيقِ النَّاسِ يُؤْذِيهِمْ، وَلَوْ أَنْ تَلْقَى أَخَاكَ، وَوَجْهُكَ إِلَيْهِ مُنْطَلِقٌ، وَلَوْ أَنْ تَلْقَى أَخَاكَ فَتُسَلِّمَ عَلَيْهِ، وَلَوْ أَنْ تُؤْنِسَ الْوَحْشَانَ فِي الْأَرْضِ، وَإِنْ سَبَّكَ رَجُلٌ بِشَيْءٍ يَعْلَمُهُ فِيكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ فِيهِ نَحْوَهُ، فَلَا تَسُبَّهُ فَيَكُونَ أَجْرُهُ لَكَ وَوِزْرُهُ عَلَيْهِ، وَمَا سَرَّ أُذُنَكَ أَنْ تَسْمَعَهُ فَاعْمَلْ بِهِ، وَمَا سَاءَ أُذُنَكَ أَنْ تَسْمَعَهُ فَاجْتَنِبْهُ (٢)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Tamimah Hijimi that once I met the Prophet (ﷺ) on one of the roads of Madinah Munawwarah. At that time, the Prophet (ﷺ) was wearing a woolen waistcloth whose edges were puffed up. I greeted him saying, "Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "‘Alaikas-salam’ is the greeting for the dead." Then I asked about the waistcloth, "Up to where should I tie my waistcloth?" The Prophet (ﷺ) removed the cloth from his shin bone and said, "Tie it up to here. If you cannot do that, then tie it a little below this. If you cannot do that, then tie it up to the ankles. If you cannot even do that, then Allah does not like any boastful, arrogant person." Then I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about virtue. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not consider any good deed insignificant, even if you give someone a rope or a shoelace, or draw water from your bucket into the vessel of someone who asks for water, or remove something from the road that is causing them harm, or meet your brother with a cheerful face, or greet your brother when you meet him, or show affection and love to those who are considered strangers in the land. And if someone abuses you and taunts you with something about yourself that you know, and you also know something similar about him, then do not taunt him with that flaw. This will be a source of reward for you and a source of burden for him. And act upon that which your ears like to hear, and avoid that which your ears do not like to hear."
