حَدَّثَنِىْ
جِبْرِيْلُ قالَ؛ يَقُوْلُ اللَّهُ تَعَالى: لا إلهَ إلاّ اللَّهُ حِصْنِي،
فَمَنْ دَخلَهُ أمِنَ مِنْ عَذابِي.
(659) Gabriel addressed me, saying: The
Exalted God says, ‘There is no god but Allah’ is My fort. Whoever enters it,
will be safe against My punishment.
أتَاني
جِبْرَئِيْلُ فَقَالَ: بَشِّرْ أُمَّتَكَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ مَاتَ لا يُشْرِكُ
بِاللَّهِ شَيْئَاً دَخَلَ الجَنَّةَ، قُلْتُ: يَا جِبْرَئِيْلُ وَاِنْ سَرَقَ
وَاِنْ زَنَا، قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قُلْتُ وَاِنْ سَرَقَ وَاِنْ زَنَا، قَالَ:
نَعَمْ، قُلْتُ وَاِنْ سَرَقَ وَاِنْ زَنَا، قَالَ: نَعَمْ، وَاِنْ شَرِبَ
الخَمْرَ.
(660) Gabriel came to me and said: “Give your
people good tidings that whoever does not adopt a partner for God, will
enter Paradise after death”. I said: “What if s(he) has committed theft or
adultery”, and I repeated it thrice, but the answer was in the positive and
Gabriel added, “even if (s)he has drunk wine.”
السَّخَاءُ
شَجَرَةٌ مِنْ أشْجَارِ الجَنَّةِ أغْصَانُهَا مُتَدَلِّيَاتٌ في الدُّنْيا،
فَمَنْ أخَذَ بِغُصْنٍ مِنْهَا قَادَهُ ذلِكَ الغُصْنُ إلَى الجَنَّةِ،
وَالبُخْلُ شَجَرَةٌ مِنْ أشْجَارِ النَّارِ أغْصَانُهَا مُتَدَلِّيَاتٌ في
الدُّنْيا، فَمَنْ أخَذَ بِغُصْنٍ مِنْهَا قَادَهُ ذلِكَ الغُصْنُ إلَى
النَّارِ.
(661) Generosity is a heavenly tree with
branches hanging over the earth, leading to Paradise whoever clings to one
of them, and miserliness is a hellish tree with branches hanging over the
earth, directing to Fire whoever touches one/of them.
السَّخَاءُ
خُلُقُ اللَّهِ الأعْظَمِ.
(662) Generosity is God's outstanding
attribute.
عَلَيْكُمْ
بِالحُزْنِ فَاِنَّهُ مِصْبَاحُ القَلْبِ، أجِيْعُوْا أنْفُسَكُمْ
وَأظْمِئُوْهَ.
(663) Get accustomed to grief, for it’s the
light of man’s heart. Keep yourself hungry and thirsty.
تَناكَحُوْا
تَكْثُرُوْا؛ فَاِنِّي أُبَاهِي بِكُمُ الأُمَمَ يَوْمَ القِيامَةِ.
(664) Get married and increase in number, for
I will pride myself in you over other nations in the Day of Judgment.
تَزَوَّجُوْا
وَلا تُطَلِّقُوْا؛ فَاِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُحِبُّ الذَّوَّاقِيْنَ وَلا
الذَّوَّاقَاتِ.
(665) Get married, but do not divorce your
wives, for God surely detests men and women who marry a lot.
تَزَوَّجُوْا
فَاِنِّي مُكاثِرٌ بِكُمْ الأُمَمَ؛ وَلا تَكُوْنُوْا كَرُهْبَانِيَّةِ
النَّصَارَى.
(666) Get married, for I pride myself over
other nations for the largeness of your population, and do not follow the
path of Christian monks.

النِّسَاءَ؛ فَاِنَّهُنَّ يَأْتِيْنَ بِالمَالِ.
(667) Get married, for women bring you
wealth.

(668) Gifts are sustenance from God; and so,
whoever is offered a gift should accept it.

أَمْرُ
النِّسَاءِ اِلى آبَائِهِنَّ وَرِضَاهُنَّ السُّكُوتُ.

sought from their fathers, and silence is their consent.
تَصَدَّقُوْا
فَسَيَأْتِي عَلَيْكُمْ زَمَانٌ يَمْشِي الرَّجُلُ بِصَدَقَتِهِ فَيَقُولُ
الَّذِي يَأْتِيْهِ بِهَا: لَوْ جِئْتَ بِها بِالأَمْسِ لَقَبِلْتُهَا فَأَمَّا
الآنَ فَلا حَاجَةَ لِي فيها، فَلا يَجِدُ مَنْ يَقْبَلُهَا.
(672) Give alms, for a time may come to
pass when man manages to give something on charity, but the one who is
supposed to get it will say, “I would have accepted it if you had brought it
yesterday. Today, I am no more in need of it.” and thus he will find nobody
to accept it.
تَصَدَّقُوْا؛
فَاِنَّ الصَّدَقَةَ فَكاكُكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ.
(673) Give alms, for it surely releases you
from the Fire.
تَصَدَّقُوْا
وَلَوْ بِتَمْرَةٍ فَاِنَّهَا تَسُدُّ مِنَ الجَائِعِ وَتُطْفِىءُ
الخَطِيْئَةَ كَما يُطْفِىءُ المَاءُ النَّارَ.
(674) Give alms, though a date it might be,
for it drops one’s hunger and puts out (the fire of) sin just as water makes
fire extinguished.
لِيُبْشِرْ
فُقَرَاءَ المُؤْمِنِيْنَ بِالْفَرَاغِ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ قَبْلَ الأغْنِيَاءِ
بِمِقْدَارِ خَمْسِمَائَةِ عَامٍ، هؤُلآءِ في الجَنَّةِ يَنْعَمُونَ، وَهؤُلآءِ
يُحَاسَبُونَ.
(675) Give good tidings to the
poor believers that in the Day of Judgment, they will get rid (of the trial)
five hundred years earlier than the rich-the former residing in Paradise,
benefiting from God’s blessings, and the latter being called to account.

(677) Give something to a beggar, even if it
is half a date (petty).

السَّائِلَ وَلَوْ جَاءَكَ عَلى فَرَسٍ؛ وَأَعْطِ الاَجِيْرَ حَقَّهُ قَبْلَ
أَنْ يَجِفَّ عَرَقُهُ.
(678) Give something to those who beg you, though
coming to you on horse back (though rich), and pay workers their
wage before sweat is dried on their skin.
عَلَيْكَ
بِاليَأْسِ مِمَّا في أيْدِي النَّاسِ، وَاِيَّاكَ وَالطَّمَعَ فَاِنَّهُ
الفَقْرُ الحَاضِرُ.
(679) Give up hope for what people have and
avoid avarice, for it is immediate poverty.

يُرِيْبُكَ إلى مَا لا يُرِيْبُكَ، فَاِنَّ الصِّدْقَ يُنْجِي.
(680) Give up the doubtful and grasp the
undoubtful. Verily, truthfulness entails salvation.
مَا يُرِيْبُكَ
إلى مَا لا يُرِيْبُكَ، فَاِنَّكَ لَنْ تَجِدَ فَقْدَ شَيْءٍ تَرَكْتَهُ
للَّهِِ.
(681) Give up the doubtful and grasp the
undutiful, for surely you will not feel the lack of what you have abandoned
for the sake of God.
دَعْ مَا
يُرِيْبُكَ إلى مَا لا يُرِيْبُكَ، فَمَنْ رَعى حَوْلَ الحِمَى يُوْشِكُ أنْ
يَقَعَ فِيْهِ.
(682) Give up the doubtful and grasp the
undutiful, for whoever grazes his cattle on the whereabouts of a
forbidden pasture, might unwantedly find himself on it.
الرَّاشِي
وَالمُرْتَشِي فِي النَّارِ.
(683)
Givers and
receivers of bribe are both
subject to the fire of Hell.
لَأَنْ
اُطْعِمَ أخَاً في اللَّهِ مُسْلِمَاً لُقْمَةً أحَبُّ اِلَيَّ مِنْ أنْ
أتَصَدَّقَ بِدِرْهَمٍ، وَلَأَنْ أُعْطِي أخَاً في اللَّهِ مُسْلِمَاً
دِرْهَمَاً أحَبُّ اِلىَّ مِنْ أنْ أتَصَدَّقَ بِعَشْرَةٍ،
وَلأَنْ أُعْطِيْهِ عَشَرَةً أَحَبُّ اِلَىَّ مِنْ أنْ أُعْتِقَ رَقَبَةً.
(684) Giving a morsel of food to a
Muslim brother for God’s sake is more favorite to me than giving a Dirham in
charity, and giving a Dirham to a Muslim is more favorite to me than giving
ten Dirhams in charity, and giving him ten Dirhams is more favorite to me
than making a slave free.
الصَّدَقَةُ
عَلى القَرابَةِ صَدَقَةٌ وَصِلَةٌ.
(685) Giving alms to kinds is alms-giving as
well as strengthening ties of kinship.

النَّارُ أوْلَى بِهِ.
(691) God changes(darkens) the visage of the
one who earns his living through knowledge, disturbs his affairs, and makes
Hell his appropriate abode.

جُزْءً؛ وَأَنْزَلَ في الأرْضِ جُزْءً واحِدًا؛ فَمِنْ ذلِكَ الجُزْءِ
يَتَراحَمُ الخَلْقُ؛ حَتَّى تَرْفَعَ الفَرَسُ حافِرَها عَنْ وَلَدِها
خَشْيَةَ أَنْ تُصِيْبَهُ.
(694) God divided (His) Mercy into a
hundred parts, keeping ninety-nine parts with Himself and letting one
single part descend to the earth. It is through this very part that (His)
creatures are merciful to one another, to the extent that a horse lifts its
hoof lest it should hurt its colts.
ما أعَزَّ
اللَّهُ بِجَهْلٍ قَطُّ؛ وَلا أذَلَّ اللَّهُ بِحِلْمٍ قَطُّ.

تَعَالى أنْ يُعينَهُ وأنْ يُبارِكَ لَهُ: مَنْ سَعى في فَكاكِ رَقَبَتِهِ
ثِقَةً بِاللَّهِ وَاحْتِسَابَاً؛ كانَ حَقَّاً عَلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالى أنْ

الشَّيْطَانُ.
(714) God helps a judge as long as he keeps
away from tyranny, but as soon as he starts cruelty, He leaves him on his

يُحِبُّهُمَا اللَّهُ فَالسَّخَاءُ وَالسَّمَاحَةُ؛ وَأمَّا اللَّذانِ
يُبْغِضُهُمَا اللَّهُ فَسُوْءُ الخُلْقِ وَالبُخْلِ، وَاِذا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ

حَلَفَ عَلى سَلْعَتِهِ لَقَدْ أُعْطِي بِها أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا أُعْطِي وَهُوَ
كاذِبٌ؛ وَرَجُلٌ حَلَفَ عَلى يِمِيْنٍ كاذِبَةٍ لِيَقْطَعَ بِها مَالَ رَجُلٍ
مُسْلِمٍ؛ وَرَجُلٌ مَنَعَ فَضْلَ مائِهِ.فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ: اليَوْمَ
