حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْمَخْزُومِيُّ الْمَدَنِيُّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لِلْمُؤْمِنِ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ سِتُّ خِصَالٍ يَعُودُهُ إِذَا مَرِضَ وَيَشْهَدُهُ إِذَا مَاتَ وَيُجِيبُهُ إِذَا دَعَاهُ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا لَقِيَهُ وَيُشَمِّتُهُ إِذَا عَطَسَ وَيَنْصَحُ لَهُ إِذَا غَابَ أَوْ شَهِدَ " . قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ . وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْمَخْزُومِيُّ الْمَدَنِيُّ ثِقَةٌ رَوَى عَنْهُ عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ .
Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.
Abu Hurayrah reported that Allah’s Messenger said: ‘A believer owes another believer six things: visit him when he is ill; attend him when he dies; respond when he calls you; greet him when you meet; invoke mercy for him when he sneezes; and give him sincere counsel whether he is absent or present.’
Abu ‘Isa said: This is a hasan sahih hadith. Muhammad ibn Musa al-Makhzumi al-Madani is trustworthy; ‘Abd al-‘Aziz ibn Muhammad and Ibn Abi Fudayk transmitted from him.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic says respond when called, not simply accept an invitation. ‘Advise him sincerely’ renders yansahu lahu in both his presence and absence. The narrator assessment is included from the Arabic.
