Hadith No: 46
Narrated/Authority of Muadh bin Jabal
I was
riding behind the Prophet (may peace be upon him) and there
was nothing between him and me but the rear part of the
saddle, when he said: Mu'adh b. Jabal: To which I replied: At
your beck and call, and at your pleasure, Messenger of Allah!
He moved along for a few minutes, when again he said: Mu'adh
b. Jabal: To which I replied: At your beck and call, and at
your pleasure, Messenger of Allah! He then again moved along
for a few minutes and said: Mu'adh b. Jabal: To which I
replied. At your beck and call, and at your pleasure.
Messenger of Allah He, (the Holy Prophet) said: Do you know
what right has Allah upon His servants? I said: Allah and His
Messenger know best. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Verily the
right of Allah over His servants is that they should worship
Him, not associating anything with Him. He (the Holy Prophet)
with Mu'adh behind him, moved along for a few minutes and
said: Mu'adh b. Jabal: To which I replied: At your beck and
call, and at your pleasure, Messenger of Allah! He (the Holy
Prophet) said: Do you know what rights have servants upon
Allah in case they do it (i. e. they worship Allah without
associating anything with Him)? I (Mu'adh b. Jabal) replied:
Allah and His Messenger know best. (Upon this) he (the Holy
Prophet) remarked: That He would not torment them (with the
fire of Hell).
