حديث عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ رضي الله عنها، وَكَانَ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا، وَهُوَ أَحَدُ النُّقَبَاءِ لَيْلَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ، وَحَوْلَهُ عِصَابَةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ: بَايِعُونِي عَلَى أَنْ لَا تُشْرِكُوا بِاللهِ شَيْئًا وَلَا تَسْرِقُوا وَلَا تَزْنُوا وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا أَوْلَادَكُمْ وَلَا تَأْتَوا بِبُهْتَانٍ تَفْتَرُونَهُ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَأَرْجُلِكُمْ، وَلَا تَعْصُوا فِي مَعْرُوفٍ، فَمَنْ وَفَى مِنْكُمْ فَأَجْرُهُ عَلَى اللهِ، وَمَنْ أَصَابَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا فَعُوقِبَ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَهُوَ كَفَّارَةٌ لَهُ، وَمَنْ أَصَابَ مِن ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا ⦗١٩١⦘ ثُمَّ سَتَرَه اللهُ، فَهُوَ إِلَى اللهِ، إِنْ شَاءَ عَفَا عَنْهُ، وَإِنْ شَاءَ عَاقَبَهُ فَبَايَعْنَاهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ.
'Ubadah bin As-Samit Narrated from:
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, while a group of his companions were around him, "Give the Bai'a (pledge) to me for: (1) Not to join anything in worship along with Allâh, (2) Not to steal, (3) Not to commit illegal sexual intercourse, (4) Not to kill your children, (5) Not to utter slander intentionally forging falsehood (i.e. by making illegal children belonging to their husbands or not to accuse an innocent person and to spread such an accusation among people), (6) Not to be disobedient (when ordered) to do Ma'rûf (Islâmic Monotheism and all other good deeds)."The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم added; "Whoever amongst you fulfils his pledge will be rewarded by Allâh عز وجل. And whoever indulges in any one of these (sins) and gets the punishment in this world, that punishment will be an expiation for that sin. And if one indulges in any of them, and Allâh عز وجل conceals (his sin), it is upto Him to forgive or punish him (in the Hereafter)."'Ubâda bin As-Sâmit رضي الله عنه added: "So we gave the Bai'a (pledge) for these (points to Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم)."
