The Forty Hadiths of al-Nawawi

2
00:00:06,410 --> 00:00:10,410
On the authority of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

3
00:00:10,410 --> 00:00:15,410
I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say:

4
00:00:15,410 --> 00:00:20,410
Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand;

5
00:00:20,410 --> 00:00:23,410
if he cannot, then with his tongue;

6
00:00:23,410 --> 00:00:27,410
and if he cannot, then with his heart,

7
00:00:27,410 --> 00:00:30,600
and that is the weakest of faith.

8
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,600
Narrated by Muslim.

9
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:38,750
This hadith clarifies a great obligation among the obligations of Islam,

10
00:00:38,750 --> 00:00:42,750
which is enjoining good and forbidding evil.

11
00:00:42,750 --> 00:00:45,750
It is a means of preserving the righteousness of society

12
00:00:45,750 --> 00:00:48,750
and preventing the spread of corruption.

13
00:00:48,750 --> 00:00:51,820
The Prophet (peace be upon him) has established

14
00:00:51,820 --> 00:00:54,820
the levels of change according to one's ability,

15
00:00:54,820 --> 00:00:57,820
which demonstrates the mercy of the Sharia

16
00:00:57,820 --> 00:01:00,820
and its consideration for people's capabilities.

17
00:01:00,820 --> 00:01:06,819
Thus, the hadith trains the Muslim in responsibility toward his religion and his community,

18
00:01:06,819 --> 00:01:12,819
and to be proactive in correcting errors, each according to his ability.
