Chapter 3 · Knowledgeمَنْ خَصَّ بِالْعِلْمِ قَوْمًا دُونَ قَوْمٍ كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ لاَ يَفْهَمُوا
One who singles out some people for knowledge and not others, for fear that they will not understand
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَمُعَاذٌ رَدِيفُهُ عَلَى الرَّحْلِ قَالَ " يَا مُعَاذُ بْنَ جَبَلٍ ". قَالَ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَسَعْدَيْكَ. قَالَ " يَا مُعَاذُ ". قَالَ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَسَعْدَيْكَ. ثَلاَثًا. قَالَ " مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صِدْقًا مِنْ قَلْبِهِ إِلاَّ حَرَّمَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّارِ ". قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَفَلاَ أُخْبِرُ بِهِ النَّاسَ فَيَسْتَبْشِرُوا قَالَ " إِذًا يَتَّكِلُوا ". وَأَخْبَرَ بِهَا مُعَاذٌ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ تَأَثُّمًا .

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ،
Translation
Anas ibn Malik reported that the Prophet ﷺ – while Mu'adh was riding behind him on the saddle – said, “O Mu'adh ibn Jabal!” He said, “Here I am, O Messenger of Allah, at your service.” He said, “O Mu'adh!” He said, “Here I am, O Messenger of Allah, at your service.” – three times. He said, “There is no one who testifies sincerely from his heart that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, except that Allah makes him forbidden to the Fire.” He said, “O Messenger of Allah, shall I not inform the people of it, so that they may rejoice?” He said, “Then they would rely (on it).” And Mu'adh related it at the time of his death, for fear of sinning (by concealing it).

Anas ibn Malik berichtete, dass der Prophet ﷺ – während Mu'adh hinter ihm auf dem Sattel saß – sagte: „O Mu'adh ibn Dschabal!“ Er sagte: „Hier bin ich, o Gesandter Allahs, zu deinen Diensten.“ Er sagte: „O Mu'adh!“ Er sagte: „Hier bin ich, o Gesandter Allahs, zu deinen Diensten.“ – dreimal. Er sagte: „Es gibt niemanden, der aufrichtig aus seinem Herzen bezeugt, dass es keine Gottheit außer Allah gibt und dass Muhammad der Gesandte Allahs ist, ohne dass Allah ihn dem Feuer verwehrt.“ Er sagte: „O Gesandter Allahs, soll ich es nicht den Menschen mitteilen, damit sie sich freuen?“ Er sagte: „Dann würden sie sich (darauf) verlassen.“ Und Mu'adh teilte es bei seinem Tod mit, aus Furcht, sich (durch das Verschweigen) zu versündigen.

Enes b. Mâlik (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Muâz (r.a.) semer üzerinde Nebî'nin ﷺ terkisindeyken Nebî ﷺ, “Ey Muâz b. Cebel!” dedi. Muâz, “Buyur, ey Allah'ın Resûlü, emrine amadeyim” dedi. “Ey Muâz!” dedi. Muâz, “Buyur, ey Allah'ın Resûlü, emrine amadeyim” dedi. Bu üç defa (oldu). Nebî ﷺ şöyle buyurdu: “Kalbinden samimi olarak Allah'tan başka ilah olmadığına ve Muhammed'in Allah'ın Resûlü olduğuna şahitlik eden hiç kimse yoktur ki Allah onu cehenneme haram kılmasın.” Muâz, “Ey Allah'ın Resûlü, bunu insanlara haber vermeyeyim mi, sevinsinler?” dedi. Nebî ﷺ, “O zaman (buna) güvenip kalırlar” buyurdu. Muâz da (ilmi gizleme) günahından sakınarak bunu ölümü sırasında haber verdi.
