Hadith of Muadh ibn Jabal (RA)

حديث معاذ بن جبل

Hadith 961:6

Waki’ narrated to us, from Isra’il, from Abu Ishaq, from ‘Amr ibn Maymun, from Mu’adh, who said: I was riding behind the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and he said: "O Mu’adh, do you know what is the right of Allah upon the servants?" I said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: "That you worship Him and do not associate anything with Him." He said: "And do you know what is the right of the servants upon Allah if they do that?" I said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: "That He does not punish them."

حدثنا وكيع، عن إسرائيل، عن أبي إسحاق، عن عمرو بن ميمون، عن معاذ، قال: كنت ردف رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: " يا معاذ أتدري ما حق الله على العباد؟ " قال: قلت: الله ورسوله أعلم. قال: " أن تعبدوه ولا تشركوا به شيئا " قال: " فهل تدري ما حق العباد على الله إذا هم فعلوا ذلك؟ " قلت الله ورسوله أعلم. قال: " لا يعذبهم "
