وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ؓ قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:
إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الزَّانِيَ، وَشَارِبَ الْخَمْرِ مَا تَقُولُونَ فِيهِمْ ؟ قَالُوا: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ: هُنَّ فَوَاحِشُ، وَفِيهِنَّ عُقُوبَةٌ، أَفَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِأَكْبَرِ الْكَبَائِرِ ؟ قُلْنَا: بَلَى، قَالَ ﷺ: الْإِشْرَاكُ بِاللهِ، قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: وَمَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللهِ فَقَدِ افْتَرَى إِثْمًا عَظِيمًا وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: اشْكُرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيْكَ إِلَيَّ الْمَصِيرُ قَالَ: وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُتَّكِئًا فَاحْتَفَزَ، وَقَالَ: أَلَا وَقَوْلُ الزُّورِ، أَلَا وَقَوْلُ الزُّورِ

✧ When you see an adulterer and a wine-drinker, what do you say about them? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: These are obscenities, and in them is punishment. Shall I not inform you of the greatest of major sins? We said: Yes. He ﷺ said: Associating partners with Allah. Allah the Exalted said: 'And whoever associates partners with Allah has certainly fabricated a tremendous sin' [Quran 4:48]. And disobedience to parents. Then the Mighty and Majestic said: 'Be grateful to Me and to your parents; to Me is the final destination' [Quran 31:14]. He said: And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was reclining, so he sat up straight and said: Indeed, and false speech; indeed, and false speech.
