narrated by Salmaan, mayAllah be pleased with him,that the prophet,
peace and blessings be upon him, gave them a khutbahin the last day of
Sha'abaan .. etc. some brothers objected to whatthe khateeb says in
front of the worshippers sayingthat this Hadeeth is fabricated. He
also said that the prophet said: "who feeds a fasting person, Allah
will bless him a drink of my Cistern (Al-Hawd), he will never feel
thirsty after it until heis in paradise" and also said: "who makes it
easy on his salve, Allah will forgive him and frees him of the
hellfire". The brother objected and said:this is lying and the prophet
did not say this. Aperson tells lies about what the prophet said
should expect his place in the hell". Is the Hadeeth mentioned correct
or not?.
Praise be to Allaah.
The hadeeth of Salmaan was narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah in his Saheeh. He
said: Chapter on the virtues of the month of Ramadaan if the report is
saheeh. Then he said: 'Ali ibn Hijr al-Sa'di told us, Yoosuf ibn
Ziyaad told us, Humaam ibn Yahya told us, from 'Ali ibn Zayd ibn
Jad'aan, from Sa'eed ibn al-Musayyab, from Salmaan who said: The
Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
addressed us on the last day of Sha'baan and said: "O people, there
has cometo you a great month, a blessed month, a month in which there
is a night that is better than a thousand months. Allaah has made
fasting it obligatory and spending its nights in prayer a voluntary
act. Whoever draws close (to Allaah) during it by doing a good deed
will be like one who did an obligatory deed in any other month, and
the one who does an obligatory deed in it will be like one who did
seventy obligatory deeds in any other month. It is the month of
patience, and the reward of patience is Paradise. It is the month of
helping others. It is a month in which the believer's provision is
increased. Whoever gives a fasting person food with which to break his
fast will have his sins forgiven and he will be ransomed from the
Fire, and he will have a reward like his without it detracting from
his reward in the slightest." They said: Not all of us can find
something to give to the fasting person with which to break his fast.
He said: "Allaah will give this reward to the one who gives a fasting
person a date or a drink of water or a sip of milk. It is a month the
beginning of which is mercy, the middle of which is forgiveness and
the end of which is ransom from the Fire. The one who reduces the
burden for his slave will be forgiven by Allaah, andHe will ransom him
from the Fire. So do a lot of four good deeds during it,two with which
you will please your Lord and two which you cannot do without. As for
the two good deeds with which you will please your Lord, they are
bearing witness that there is no god except Allaah, and seekingHis
forgiveness. As for those which you cannot do without, they are:
asking Allaah for Paradise and seeking refuge with Him from Hell.
Whoever feeds a fasting person until he is full, Allaah will give him
to drink from myCistern, a drink after which he will not thirst again
until he enters Paradise."
Its isnaad includes 'Ali ibn Zayd ibn Jad'aan, who is da'eef (weak)
because of his bad memory. Its isnaad also includes Yoosuf ibn Ziyaad
al-Basri,whose hadeeth is munkar.It also includes Humaam ibn Yahya ibn
Dinaar al-'Awadi, concerning whom Ibn Hajar said in al-Taqreeb: He is
trustworthy but he may make mistakes.
Based on this, the hadeeth with this isnaad is not false, but it is
weak. However, many of the virtues of Ramadaan are proven in the
saheeh ahaadeeth.
