Hadith of Bahz bin Hakim, from his father, from his grandfather (RA)

حديث بهز بن حكيم، عن أبيه، عن جده

Hadith 792:28

Isma'il narrated to us, Bahz bin Hakim informed us, from his father, from his grandfather, who said: I came to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and when I came to him, I said: "By Allah, I did not come to you until I had sworn more times than the number of these"—and Bahz joined his palms together—"that I would not come to you nor come to your religion. And I have come as a man who knows nothing except what Allah and His Messenger have taught me. I ask you by the Face of Allah, with what did Allah send you to us?" He said: "With Islam." I said: "And what are the signs of Islam?" He said: "That you say: 'I have submitted my face to Allah and detached myself,' and that you establish prayer and give zakat. Every Muslim is sacred to another Muslim; they are two brothers who support one another. Allah does not accept any deed from a polytheist who associates partners with Him after he has accepted Islam, and you must separate from the polytheists to the Muslims. What is the matter with me holding you by your waistbands away from the Fire? Behold, my Lord is calling me and He will ask me: 'Have you conveyed [the message] to His servants?' And I will say: 'My Lord, I have conveyed it to them.' So let those of you who are present convey it to those who are absent. Then you will be summoned, with your mouths covered by a muzzle, and the first thing that will speak about one of you will be his thigh and his palm." I said: "O Prophet of Allah, is this our religion?" He said: "This is your religion, and wherever you do good, it will suffice you."

حدثنا إسماعيل، أخبرنا بهز بن حكيم، عن أبيه، عن جده قال: أتيت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم حين أتيته فقلت: والله ما أتيتك حتى حلفت أكثر من عدد أولاء أن لا آتيك ولا آتي دينك، وجمع بهز بين كفيه، وقد جئت امرأ لا أعقل شيئا إلا ما علمني الله ورسوله، وإني أسألك بوجه الله بم بعثك الله إلينا؟ قال: " بالإسلام ". قلت: وما آيات الإسلام؟ قال: أن تقول: " أسلمت وجهي لله وتخليت، وتقيم الصلاة، وتؤتي الزكاة. كل مسلم على مسلم محرم، أخوان نصيران لا يقبل الله من مشرك أشرك بعدما أسلم عملا، وتفارق المشركين إلى المسلمين، ما لي أمسك بحجزكم عن النار؟ ألا إن ربي داعي وإنه سائلي: " هل بلغت عباده؟ " وإني قائل: " رب إني قد بلغتهم فليبلغ الشاهد منكم الغائب، ثم إنكم مدعوون مفدمة أفواهكم بالفدام، ثم إن أول ما يبين عن أحدكم لفخذه وكفه. قلت يا نبي الله: هذا ديننا؟ قال: " هذا دينكم وأينما تحسن يكفك "
