Da'if

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَامِرٌ، قَالَ أَتَى رَجُلٌ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو وَعِنْدَهُ الْقَوْمُ حَتَّى جَلَسَ عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ أَخْبِرْنِي بِشَىْءٍ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ الْمُسْلِمُ مَنْ سَلِمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَيَدِهِ وَالْمُهَاجِرُ مَنْ هَجَرَ مَا نَهَى اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
‘Amir said “A man came to ‘Abd Allaah bin ‘Amr while the people were with him. He sat with him and said “Tell me anything that you heard from the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ)”. He said “I hears the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) say “A Muslim is he from whose tongue and hand the Muslims remain safe and an emigrant is he who abandons what Allaah has prohibited.””

Context

In this hadith, a man approaches ‘Abd Allaah bin ‘Amr to inquire about a saying of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ emphasizes that a true Muslim is one from whom other Muslims feel safe from harm, whether through words or actions. Additionally, he defines a true emigrant as one who abandons what Allah has prohibited, highlighting the importance of both community safety and personal integrity.

Modern Application

In today's world, this principle encourages individuals to be mindful of their words and actions, ensuring they do not harm others. It also promotes the idea of personal accountability, urging people to avoid behaviors that are harmful or prohibited, fostering a safer and more respectful community.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Community and Prophetic Conduct because it addresses the safety of Muslims in their interactions and emphasizes the moral conduct expected of individuals.
