حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ النَّزَّالِ - أَوِ النَّزَّالِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ - عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ:
يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَخْبِرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ، قَالَ: بَخٍ بَخٍ، لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَ عَنْ عَظِيمٍ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَسِيرٌ عَلَى مَنْ يَسَّرَهُ اللهُ، صَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ، وَأَدِّ الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ، أَفَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِرَأْسِ الْأَمْرِ وَعَمُودِهِ وَذُرْوَةِ سَنَامِهِ ؟ أَمَّا رَأْسُ الْأَمْرِ فَالْإِسْلَامُ، مَنْ أَسْلَمَ سَلِمَ، وَعَمُودُهُ الصَّلَاةُ، وَذُرْوَةُ سَنَامِهِ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ الْخَيْرِ ؟ الصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ تُكَفِّرُ الْخَطِيئَةَ، وَقِيَامُ الْعَبْدِ مِنْ جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ، وَتَلَا: تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، أَوَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِأَمْلَكِ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ ؟ قَالَ: فَاطَّلَعَ رَكْبٌ أَوْ رَاكِبٌ، فَأَشَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى لِسَانِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: وَإِنَّا لَنُؤَاخَذُ بِمَا نَتَكَلَّمُ بِأَلْسِنَتِنَا ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ يَا مُعَاذُ، وَهَلْ يَكُبُّ النَّاسَ عَلَى مَنَاخِرِهِمْ فِي النَّارِ إِلَّا حَصَائِدُ أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ

✧ O Messenger of God, tell me of a deed that will admit me into Paradise. He said: Excellent, excellent! You have asked about something great, yet it is easy for the one for whom God makes it easy. Perform the prescribed prayer, give the obligatory zakah. Shall I not tell you of the head of the matter, its pillar, and its highest peak? The head of the matter is Islam; whoever submits is safe. Its pillar is prayer, and its highest peak is jihad in the path of God. Shall I not point you to the gates of goodness? Fasting is a shield, charity extinguishes sin, and a servant's standing in the depths of the night. Then he recited: 'Their sides forsake their beds...' to the end of the verse. Shall I not tell you of what controls all of that? He said: Then a rider or a band of riders appeared, and the Messenger of God ﷺ pointed with his hand to his tongue. I said: Will we be held accountable for what we say with our tongues? The Messenger of God ﷺ said: May your mother be bereaved of you, O Mu'adh! Is there anything that casts people on their faces into the Fire except the harvests of their tongues?
