Chapter No. 1, Faith (Kitab Al Iman)
Hadith No: 81
Narrated/Authority of Abdullah bin Masud
that the
Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him)
observed: Never a Prophet had been sent before me by Allah
towards his nation who had not among his people (his)
disciples and companions who followed his ways and obeyed his
command. Then there came after them their successors who said
whatever they did not practise, and practised whatever they
were not commanded to do. He who strove against them with his
hand was a believer: he who strove against them with his
tongue was a believer, and he who strove against them with his
heart was a believer and beyond that there is no faith even to
the extent of a mustard seed. Abu Rafi' said: I narrated this
hadith to 'Abdullah b. 'Umar; he contradicted me. There
happened to come 'Abdullah b. Mas'ud who stayed at Qanat, and
'Abdullah b 'Umar wanted me to accompany him for visiting him
(as 'Abdullah b. Mas'ud was ailing), so I went along with him
and as we sat (before him) I asked Ibn Mas'ud about this
hadith. He narrated it in the same way as I narrated it to Ibn
'Umar.
