Arabic hadith text

قَالَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ فَمَنْ قَالَ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ عَصَمَ مِنِّي مَالَهُ وَنَفْسَهُ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهِ وَحِسَابُهُ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ جَمَعَ شُعَيْبُ بْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ جَمِيعًا ‏.‏

Translation

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Al-Harith ibn Miskin read this to us while I listened; he said: Ibn Wahb narrated to us; he said: Yunus informed me, from Ibn Shihab; he said: Saʿid ibn al-Musayyab narrated to me that Abu Hurayrah informed him that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘I have been commanded to fight the people until they say, “There is no god but Allah.” Whoever says, “There is no god but Allah,” has made his life and property inviolable to me, except by a right that is due, and his reckoning is with Allah, Mighty and Sublime.’ Shuʿayb ibn Abi Hamzah combined both hadiths in full.
