Daily Hadith: 12th Safar 1442 (29th September 2020)
Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah
Narrated Talha bin 'Ubaidullah (RA):
A man came to the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) asking him about Islam, & the Noble Prophet (SAW) said:
"You have to offer five compulsory
prayers in a day and a night (24 hours)."
The man asked, "Is there any more compulsory prayers for me?"
Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "No, unless you like to offer Nawafil (i.e. optional prayers)."
Allah's Apostle then added, "You have to observe fasts during the month of Ramadan." The man said, "Am I to fast any other days?' Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, "No, unless you wish to observe the optional fast voluntarily." Then Allah's Apostle told him about the compulsory Zakat.
The man asked, "Do I have to give anything besides?" Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "No, unless you wish to give in charity voluntarily." So, the man departed saying, "By Allah I will neither do more nor less than that." Allah's Apostle (SAW) said:
"If he has said the truth (and practice all that I mentioned to him very well) he will be successful (and enter Jannah even if he didn't add any voluntary act of worship)"
