Sahih Muslim Book - 45, Hadith - 6572

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ بَهْرَامَ الدَّارِمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ ، يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ الدِّمَشْقِيَّ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلاَنِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فِيمَا رَوَى عَنِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَنَّهُ قَالَ : يَا عِبَادِي إِنِّي حَرَّمْتُ الظُّلْمَ عَلَى نَفْسِي ، وَجَعَلْتُهُ بَيْنَكُمْ مُحَرَّمًا ، فَلاَ تَظَالَمُوا ، يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ ضَالٌّ إِلاَّ مَنْ هَدَيْتُهُ ، فَاسْتَهْدُونِي أَهْدِكُمْ ، يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ جَائِعٌ ، إِلاَّ مَنْ أَطْعَمْتُهُ ، فَاسْتَطْعِمُونِي أُطْعِمْكُمْ ، يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ عَارٍ ، إِلاَّ مَنْ كَسَوْتُهُ ، فَاسْتَكْسُونِي أَكْسُكُمْ ، يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ تُخْطِئُونَ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ ، وَأَنَا أَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا ، فَاسْتَغْفِرُونِي أَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ، يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَبْلُغُوا ضَرِّي فَتَضُرُّونِي وَلَنْ تَبْلُغُوا نَفْعِي ، فَتَنْفَعُونِي ، يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ كَانُوا عَلَى أَتْقَى قَلْبِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ ، مَا زَادَ ذَلِكَ فِي مُلْكِي شَيْئًا ، يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ كَانُوا عَلَى أَفْجَرِ قَلْبِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ ، مَا نَقَصَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ مُلْكِي شَيْئًا ، يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ قَامُوا فِي صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ فَسَأَلُونِي فَأَعْطَيْتُ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ مَسْأَلَتَهُ ، مَا نَقَصَ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا عِنْدِي إِلاَّ كَمَا يَنْقُصُ الْمِخْيَطُ إِذَا أُدْخِلَ الْبَحْرَ ، يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّمَا هِيَ أَعْمَالُكُمْ أُحْصِيهَا لَكُمْ ، ثُمَّ أُوَفِّيكُمْ إِيَّاهَا ، فَمَنْ وَجَدَ خَيْرًا ، فَلْيَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ وَمَنْ وَجَدَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ ، فَلاَ يَلُومَنَّ إِلاَّ نَفْسَهُ. قَالَ سَعِيدٌ: كَانَ أَبُو إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلاَنِيُّ ، إِذَا حَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ، جَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ.

It was narrated from Abu Dharr that the Prophet (s.a.w) said, narrating from Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He: "O My slaves, I have forbidden oppression to Myself, and I have made it unlawful among you, so do not wrong one another. O My slaves, all of you are astray except those whom I guide, so ask Me for guidance, and I will guide you. O My slaves, all of you are hungry except those whom I feed, so ask Me for food and I will feed you. O My slaves, all of you are naked except those whom I clothe, so ask Me for clothing and I will clothe you. O My slaves, you err night and day, but I forgive all sins, so ask Me for forgiveness and I will forgive you. O My slaves, you can never do Me any harm or bring Me any benefit. O My slaves, if the first of you and the last of you, your humans and your jinn, were equal in piety like the heart of the most pious man among you, that would not add anything to My dominion. O My slaves, if the first of you and the last of you, your humans and your jinn, were equal in evil like the heart of the most evil man among you, that would not detract anything from My dominion. O My slaves, if the first of you and the last of you, your humans and your jinn, were to stand on a single plain and ask of Me and I were to give each one what he asked for, that would not cause any loss to Me greater than what is lost when a needle is dipped into the sea. O My slaves, it is only your actions that I am recording for you, then I will requite you for them. Whoever finds it to be good, let him praise Allah, and whoever finds it to be otherwise, let him blame no one but himself." Sa'eed said: "When Abu Idris Al-Khawlani narrated this Hadith, he would kneel down."
