حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ بْنِ نَجْدَةَ الْحَوْطِيُّ ثنا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ ثنا حَرِيزُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ نُعَيْمِ بْنِ نَمِحَةَ قَالَ

كَانَ فِي خُطْبَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ أَمَا تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّكُمْ تَغْدُونَ وَتَرُوحُونَ لِأَجَلٍ مَعْلُومٍ فَمَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَنْقَضِيَ الْأَجَلُ وَهُوَ فِي عَمَلِ اللهِ ﷻ فَلْيَفْعَلْ وَلَنْ تَنَالُوا ذَلِكَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ ﷻ إِنَّ قَوْمًا جَعَلُوا آجَالَهُمْ لِغَيْرِهِمْ فَنَهَاكُمُ اللهُ أَنْ تَكُونُوا أمْثَالَهُمْ {وَلَا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ نَسُوا اللهَ فَأنْسَاهُمْ} أَيْنَ مَنْ تَعْرِفُونَ مِنْ إِخْوَانِكُمْ؟ قَدَّمُوا مَا قَدَّمُوا فِي أَيَّامِ سَلَفِهِمْ وَحَلُّوا فِيهِ بِالشِّقْوَةِ وَالسَّعَادَةِ أَيْنَ الْجَبَّارُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ الَّذِينَ بَنَوُا الْمَدَائِنَ وَحَفَفُوها بِالْحَوَائِطِ قَدْ صَارُوا تَحْتَ الصَّخْرِ وَالْآبَارِ هَذَا كِتَابُ اللهِ ﷻ لَا تَفْنَى عَجَائِبُهُ فَاسْتَوْصُوا بِهِ مِنْهُ لِيَوْمِ ظُلْمَةٍ وَائْتَضِحُوا بِسَائِهِ وَبَيَانِهِ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ أَثْنَى عَلَى زَكَرِيَّا وَأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ فَقَالَ {كَانُوا يُسَارِعُونَ فِي الْخَيْرَاتِ وَيَدْعُونَنَا رَغَبًا وَرَهَبًا وَكَانُوا لَنَا خَاشِعِينَ} لَا خَيْرَ فِي قَوْلٍ لَا يُرَادَ بِهِ وَجْهُ اللهِ وَلَا خَيْرَ فِي مَالٍ لَا يُنْفَقُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَلَا خَيْرَ فِيمَنْ يَغْلِبُ جَهْلُهُ حِلْمَهُ وَلَا خَيْرَ فِيمَنْ يَخَافُ فِي اللهِ لَوْمَةَ لَائِمٍ

✧ In the sermon of Abu Bakr ؓ it was said: "Do you not know that you go out in the morning and return in the evening for a fixed term? Whoever is able to have his term expire while he is in the work of Allah ﷻ, let him do so. You will never attain that except with Allah ﷻ. Indeed some people have made their terms for other than Him, so Allah has forbidden you to be like them: {And be not like those who forgot Allah, so He made them forget} [Quran 59:19]. Where are those of your brothers whom you knew? They have sent forth what they sent forth in the days of their predecessors, and they have fallen therein into misery or felicity. Where are the first tyrants who built cities and surrounded them with walls? They have become beneath rocks and wells. This is the Book of Allah ﷻ; its wonders never cease. So enjoin one another to follow it for a day of darkness, and illuminate yourselves with its light and its clarity. Indeed Allah ﷻ praised Zakariyya and his household, saying: {They used to hasten to good deeds and supplicate Us in hope and fear, and they were humbly submissive to Us} [Quran 21:90]. There is no good in a saying by which the face of Allah is not intended, no good in wealth that is not spent in the path of Allah, no good in one whose ignorance overcomes his forbearance, and no good in one who fears the blame of a blamer for the sake of Allah."
