وَنُحِبُ
أَصْحابَ النَّبيِّ وَلا نُفَرِّطُ في حُبِ
أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ، وَلا نَتَبَرَّأُ مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ. وَنُبْغِضُ مَنْ يُبْغِضُهُمْ،
وَبغَيْرِ الْحَقِ لا نَذكُرُهُمْ؛ وَنَرى حُبَّهُمْ ديناً وَإِيماناً
وَإِحْساناً، وَبُغْضَهُمْ كُفْراً وَشِقاقاً وَنِفاقاً وَطُغْياناً.
93. We
love the Companions of the Messenger of Allah but we do not go to excess in our
love for any one individual among them; nor do we disown any one of them. We
hate anyone who hates them or does not speak well of them and we only speak
well of them. Love of them is a part of Islam, part of belief and part of
excellent behavior, while hatred of them is unbelief, hypocrisy and rebellion.
وَنُثْبتُ
الخِلافَةَ بَعْدَ النَّبيِّ أَوَّلاً لأَبي بَكْرٍ
الصِّدِّيقِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ تَفْضيلاً وَتَقْديماً عَلَى جَميعِ الأُمَّةِ، ثُمَّ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ
اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ لِعُثْمانَ بْنِ
عَفَّانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ لِعَلِيٍّ بْنِ أَبي طالِبٍ رِضْوانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعينَ. وَهُمُ الخُلَفاءُ
الرَّاشِدونَ، وَالأَئِمَّةُ
المَهْدِيُّونَ، الَّذينَ قَضَوْا بالحَقِّ وَكانُوا بهِ يَعْدِلونَ.
94. We
confirm that, after the death of Allah's Messenger, peace be upon him, the
caliphate went first to Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, thus proving his excellence and
superiority over the rest of the Muslims; then to `Umar ibn al-Khattab; then to
`Uthman; and then to `Ali ibn Abi Talib; may Allah be well pleased with all of
them. These are the Rightly-Guided Caliphs and upright leaders.
وَإِنَّ
العَشَرَةَ الَّذينَ سَمَّاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
. نَشْهَدُ لَهُمْ
بالجَنَّةِ كَما شَهِدَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ. وَقَوْلُهُ الحَقِّ،
وَهُمْ: أَبو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعُثْمانُ وَعَلِيٌ وَطَلْحَةُ وَالزُّبَيْرُ وَسَعْدٌ وَسَعيدٌ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ
وَأَبو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ
الجَرَّاحِ، وَهُوَ أَمينُ هذِهِ الأُمَّةِ رِضْوانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعينَ.
95. We
bear witness that the ten who were named by the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, and who were promised the Garden by him, will be
in the Garden, as the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, whose word is
truth, bore witness that they would be. The ten are: Abu Bakr, `Umar, `Uthman,
`Ali, Talha, Zubayr, Sa`d, Sa`id, `Abd al-Rahman ibn `Awf, and Abu `Ubayda ibn
al-Jarrah whose title was the Trustee of this Community, may Allah be pleased
with all of them.
وَمَنْ
أَحْسَنَ القَوْلَ في أَصْحابِ النَّبيِّ وَأِزْوَاجهِ
وَذرِّيَّاتِهِ فَقَدْ بَرِئَ مِنَ النِّفاقِ
96. Anyone
who speaks well of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, and his wives and offspring, who are all pure and
untainted by any impurity, is free from the accusation of hypocrisy.
وَعُلَماءُ
السَّلَفِ مِنَ الصَّالِحينَ وَالتَّابعينَ وَمَنْ بَعْدَهُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الخَيْرِ وَالأَثَرِ، وَأَهْلِ الفِقْهِ وَالنَّظَرِ، لا
يُذكَرُونَ إِلاَّ بالجَميلِ، وَمَنْ
ذكَرَهُمْ بسوءٍ فَهُوَ عَلى غَيْرِ السَّبيلِ.
97. The
learned men of the Predecessors, both the first community and those who
immediately followed: the people of virtue, the narrators of hadith, the
jurists, and the analysts-- they must only be spoken of in the best way, and
anyone who says anything bad about them is not on the right path.
