وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْمُحَبَّرِ، ثَنَا مَيْسَرَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ قَالَا:
خَطَبَنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ: « إِنَّمَا الْعَالِمُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِعِلْمِهِ وَإِنْ كَانَ قَلِيلَ الْعِلْمِ، وَلَا تَحْقِرَنَّ مِنَ الْمَعَاصِي شَيْئًا وَإِنْ صَغُرَ فِي أَعْيُنِكُمْ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا صَغِيرَ مَعَ الْإِصْرَارِ وَلَا كَبِيرَ مَعَ اسْتِغْفَارٍ، أَلَا وَإِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى سَائِلُكُمْ عَنْ أَعْمَالِكُمْ حَتَّى عَنْ مَسِّ أَحَدِكُمْ ثَوْبَ أَخِيهِ، وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ الْعَبْدَ يُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى مَا مَاتَ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَدْ خَلَقَ اللهُ تَعَالَى الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ، فَمَنِ اخْتَارَ النَّارَ عَلَى الْجَنَّةِ فَأَبْعَدَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى، أَلَا وَإِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَمْ يَدَعْ شَيْئًا نَهَى عَنْهُ إِلَّا وَقَدْ بَيَّنَهُ لَكُمْ لِيَحْيَى مَنْ حَيَّ عَنْ بَيِّنَةٍ وَيَهْلِكَ مَنْ هَلَكَ عَنْ بَيِّنَةٍ

✧ The Prophet ﷺ delivered a sermon to us, and he mentioned the hadith, in which he said: “The scholar is only one who acts upon his knowledge, even if his knowledge is little. Do not belittle any act of disobedience, even if it seems small in your eyes, for there is no small sin with persistence, and no large sin with seeking forgiveness. Indeed, Allah, Blessed and Exalted, will ask you about your deeds, even about one of you touching the garment of his brother. Know that a servant will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection upon what he died upon. Allah, Exalted, has created Paradise and the Fire, so whoever chooses the Fire over Paradise, may Allah, Exalted, distance him. Indeed, Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has not left anything He prohibited except that He has made it clear to you, so that he who lives may live upon clear proof, and he who perishes may perish upon clear proof.”
