Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَاهُ وُهَيْبٌ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ الْهُجَيْمِيِّ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَلْهُجَيْمٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِلَامَ تَدْعُو قَالَ أَدْعُو إِلَى اللَّهِ وَحْدَهُ الَّذِي إِنْ مَسَّكَ ضُرٌّ فَدَعَوْتَهُ كَشَفَ عَنْكَ وَالَّذِي إِنْ ضَلَلْتَ بِأَرْضٍ قَفْرٍ دَعَوْتَهُ رَدَّ عَلَيْكَ وَالَّذِي إِنْ أَصَابَتْكَ سَنَةٌ فَدَعَوْتَهُ أَنْبَتَ عَلَيْكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ فَأَوْصِنِي قَالَ لَا تَسُبَّنَّ أَحَدًا وَلَا تَزْهَدَنَّ فِي الْمَعْرُوفِ وَلَوْ أَنْ تَلْقَى أَخَاكَ وَأَنْتَ مُنْبَسِطٌ إِلَيْهِ وَجْهُكَ وَلَوْ أَنْ تُفْرِغَ مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي وَاتَّزِرْ إِلَى نِصْفِ السَّاقِ فَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ فَإِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ وَإِيَّاكَ وَإِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ فَإِنَّ إِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ مِنْ الْمَخِيلَةِ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لَا يُحِبُّ الْمَخِيلَةَ.
English Translation
'Affan told us, Wuhayb told us, Khalid al-Hadhdha' told us, from Abu Tamima al-Hujaymi, from a man of Bal-Hujaym, who said: I said, "O Messenger of Allah, what do you call to?" He said: "I call to Allah alone, who, if harm touches you and you call upon Him, removes it from you; and who, if you are lost in a barren land and you call upon Him, brings you back; and who, if a year of drought befalls you and you call upon Him, causes growth for you." I said, "Then advise me." He said: "Do not revile anyone, and do not disdain any act of kindness, even meeting your brother with a cheerful face turned toward him, or pouring from your bucket into the vessel of one seeking water. And wear your lower garment down to mid-shin; if you cannot, then to the ankles; and beware of trailing the lower garment, for trailing the lower garment is a form of vanity, and Allah, Blessed and Exalted, does not love vanity."
