Sahih Muslim

It is narrated on the authority of Yahya b. Ya'mur that the first man who discussed about
Qadr(Divine Decree) in Basra was Ma'bad al-Juhani. I along with Humaid b. 'Abdur-Rahman Himyari set out for prilgrimage or for 'Umrah and said: Should it so happen that we come into contact with one of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) we shall ask him a bout what is talked about Taqdir (Division Decree). Accidentally we came across Abdullah ibn Umar ibn al-Khattab, while he was entering the mosque. My companion and I surrounded him. One of us (stood) on his right and the other stood on his left. I expected that my companion would authorize me to speak. I therefore said: Abu Abdur Rahman! there have appeared some people in our land who recite the Holy Qur'an and pursue knowledge. And then after talking about their affairs, added: They (such people) claim that there is no such thing as Divine Decree and events are not predestined. He (Abdullah ibn Umar) said: When you happen to meet such people tell them that I have nothing to do with them and they have nothing to do with me. And verily they are in no way responsible for my (belief). Abdullah ibn Umar swore by Him (the Lord) (and said): If any one of them (who does not believe in the Divine Decree) had with him gold equal to the bulk of (the mountain) Uhud and then, it (in the way of Allah), Allah would not accept it unless he affirmed his faith in Divine Decree. He further said: My father, Umar ibn al-Khattab, told me: One day we were sitting in the company of Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) when there appeared before us a man dressed in pure white clothes, his hair extraordinarily black. There were no signs of travel on him. None amongst us recognized him. At last he sat with the Apostle (peace be upon him) He knelt before him placed his palms on his thighs and said: Muhammad, inform me about al-Islam.
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: Al-Islam implies that you testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, and you establish prayer, pay Zakat, observe the fast of Ramadan, and perform pilgrimage to the (House) if you are solvent enough (to bear the expense of) the journey. He (the inquirer) said: You have told the truth. He (Umar ibn al-Khattab) said: It amazed us that he would put the question and then he would himself verify the truth. He (the inquirer) said: Inform me about Iman (faith). He (the Holy Prophet) replied: That you affirm your faith in Allah, in His angels, in His Books, in His Apostles, in the Day of Judgment, and you affirm your faith in the Divine Decree about good and evil. He (the inquirer) said: You have told the truth. He (the inquirer) again said: Inform me about al-Ihsan (performance of good deeds). He (the Holy Prophet) said: That you worship Allah as if you are seeing Him, for though you don't see Him, He, verily, sees you. He (the enquirer) again said: Inform me about the hour (of the Doom). He (the Holy Prophet)
remarked: One who is asked knows no more than the one who is inquiring (about it). He (the inquirer) said: Tell me some of its indications. He (the Holy Prophet) said: That the slave-girl will give birth to her mistress and master, that you will find barefooted, destitute goat-herds vying with one another in the construction of magnificent buildings. He (the narrator, Umar ibn al-Khattab) said: Then he (the inquirer) went on his way but I stayed with him (the Holy Prophet) for a long while. He then, said to me: Umar, do you know who this inquirer was? I replied: Allah and His Apostle knows best. He (the Holy Prophet) remarked: He was Gabriel (the angel). He came to you in order to instruct you in matters of religion.

It is narrated on the authority of Yahya b. Ya'mur that when Ma'bad discussed the problem pertaining to Divine Decree, we refuted that. He (the narrator) said: I and Humaid b. Abdur-Rahman Himyari argued. And they carried on the conversation about the purport of the hadith related by Kahmas and its chain of transmission too, and there is some variation of words.

It is narrated on the authority of Yahya b. Ya'mur and Humaid b. 'Abdur-Rahman that the said: We met Abdullah b. 'Umar and we discussed about the Divine Decree, and what they talked about it and he narrated the hadith that has been transmitted by 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Apostle (may peace be upon him). There is a slight variation in that.

It is narrated on the
authority of Tamim ad-Dari that the Apostle of Allah (may peace and
blessings be upon him) observed: Al-Din is a name of sincerity and well
wishing . Upon this we said: For whom? He replied: For Allah, His Book,
His Messenger and for the leaders and the general Muslims.

Muhammad b. Hatim and
others narrate the same hadith of the Apostle (may peace and blessings
be upon him) on the authority of Tamim ad-Dari.

Umayya b. Bistam
narrates the same hadith of the Messenger of Allah (may peace and
blessings be upon him) on the authority of Tamim ad-Dari.

It is narrated on the
authority of Jarir that he observed I gave pledge of allegiance to the
Messenger of Allah(may peace and blessings be upon him) on the
observance of prayer, payment of Zakat, and sincerity and well-wishing
for every Muslim.

Sufyan narrated on the
authority of Ziyad b. 'Ilaqa that he heard Jarir b. 'Abdullah saying: I
pledged allegiance to the Apostle of Allah may peace and blessings be
upon him) on sincerity and well-wishing for every Muslim.

It is narrated on the
authority of Jarir that he observed: I owed allegiance to the Apostle
of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him) on hearing ( is
commands) and obeying (them) and the Prophet) instructed me (to act) as
lay in my power, and sincerity and goodwill for every Muslim.

Abu Huraira reported
that the Messenger of Allah observed : The fornicator who fornicates is
not a believer so long as he commits it and no thief who steals is a
believer as long as he commits theft, and no drunkard who drinks wine
is a believer as long as he drinks it. 'Abdul-Malik b. Abi Bakr'
narrated this on the authority of Abu Bakr b. Abdur-Rahman b. Harith
and then said: Abu Huraira made this addition : No plunderer who
plunders a valuable thing that attracts the attention of people is a
believer so long as he commits this act.

'Abdul-Malik b. Shu'aib
narrated this hadith on the authority of Abu Huraira that he observed:
The Messenger of Allah said that a fornicator does not fornicate, and
then narrated the hadith like this, and he also made mention of
plundering too, but did not mention of a thin having value. Ibn Shihab
said: Sa'id b. al-Musayyib and Abu Salama narrated this hadith on the
authority of Abu Huraira a hadith like that of Abu Bakr with the
exception of (the mention) of plundering.

Muhammad b. Mihran
narrates this hadith on the authority of Abu Huraira and made mention
of plundering but did not talk of (a thing) having value.

Imam Muslim has
reported this hadith by Hasan b. 'Ali al-Halwani and other traditions.

It is reported on the
authority of Qutaiba b. Sa'id who reported on the authority of Abu
Huraira the hadith like that narrated from Zuhri with this exception
that in the hadith narrated by 'Ala ' and Safwan b. Sulaim there is no
mention of: People raise there eyes towards him, and in the hadith
narrated by Hammam: The believers raise their eyes towards him, and
such like words, so long as he plunders (is not) a believer, and these
words were added: And no exploiter who makes an exploitation is a
believer as long as he exploits It; therefore avoid and shun (these evils).

It is narrated on the
authority of Abu Huraira: A fornicator who fornicates is not a believer
as long as he commits fornication, and no one who steals is a believer
as long as he commits theft, and no one who drinks wine is a believer
as long as he drinks it, and repentance may be accepted after that.

Muhammad b. Rafi',
Abdur-Razzaq, Sufyan, A'mash narrated this hadith like one narrated by
Shu'ba, on the authority of Abu Huraira tracing, it (right to the Holy Prophet).

It is narrated on the
authority of Abdullah b. 'Amr that the Prophet observed: Four characteristics made anyone who possessed them, a sheer hypocrite; anyone who possessed one of them possessed a characteristic of hypocrisy till be abandons it: when he talked he lied, when he made a covenant he acted treacherously, and when he quarreled he deviated from the truth.

It is reported on the
authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and
blessings be upon him) said: Three are the signs of a hypocrite: when
he spoke he told a lie, when he made a promise he acted treacherously
against it, when he was trusted he betrayed.

Abu Huraira reported
that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him) observed: There are three characteristics of a hypocrite: when he spoke he told a lie, when he made promise he acted treacherously, and when he was trusted he betrayed.

'Uqba b. Mukarram
al-'Ami reported that he heard 'Ala' b. 'Abdur-Rahman narrating this hadith with this chain of transmitters and he said: Three are the signs of a hypocrite, even if he observed fast and prayed and asserted that he was a Muslim.

It is reported on the
authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and
blessings of Allah be upon him) made observations like them embodied in
the hadith narrated by Yahya b. Muhammad on the authority of 'Ala', and
added to it: even if he observed fast and prayed and asserted that he was a Muslim.

It is reported on the
authority of Ibn 'Umar that the Apostle (may peace and blessings be
upon him) observed: When a man calls his brother an unbeliever, it
returns (at least) to one of them.

It is reported on the
authority of Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and
blessings be upon him) said: Any person who called his brother: or
unbeliever (has in fact done an act by which this unbelief) would
return to one of them. If it were so, as he asserted (then the unbelief
of man was confirmed but if it was not true), then it returned to him
(to the man who labeled it on his brother Muslim).

It is reported on the
authority of Abu Dharr that he heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace
and blessings be upon him) saying: No person who claimed knowingly
anyone else as his father besides(his own)committed nothing but
infidelity, and he who made a claim of anything, which (in fact) did
not belong to him, is not amongst us; he should make his abode in Fire,
and he who labeled anyone with unbelief or called him the enemy of
Allah, and he was in fact not so, it rebounded on him.

It is narrated on the
authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and
blessings be upon him) observed: Do not detest your fathers; he who
detested his father committed infidelity.

It is reported on the
authority of Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas: Both of my ears heard the Messenger of
Allah saying this: He who claimed the fatherhood of anyone else besides
his real father knowingly (committed a great sin);Paradise is forbidden
to him. Abu Bakra asserted that he too heard it from the Messenger of
Allah (may peace be upon him ).

Sa'd and Abu Bakra each
one of them said: My ears heard and my hearing preserved it that
Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) observed: He who claimed for
another one his fatherhood besides his own father knowingly that he was
not his father-to him Paradise is forbidden.
