Al-Lu'lu Wal-Marjan 1201 — The Book of Al-Imâra (Concerning with ruling etc.)

Abu Hurairah Narrated from:

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم got up amongst us and mentioned Al-Ghulûl, emphasized its magnitude and declared that it was a great sin saying, "Don't commit Ghulûl for I should not like to see anyone amongst you on the Day of Resurrection, carrying over his neck a sheep that will be bleating, or carrying over his neck a horse that will be neighing. Such a man will be saying; 'O Allâh's Messenger! Intercede with Allâh for me,' and I will reply, 'I can't help you, for I have conveyed Allâh's Message to you.'Nor should I like to see a man carrying over his neck, a camel that will be grunting. Such a man will say, 'O Allâh's Messenger! Intercede with Allâh for me.' And I will say, 'I can't help you, for I have conveyed Allâh's Message to you,' or one carrying over his neck gold and silver and saying, 'O Allâh's Messenger! Intercede with Allâh for me,' and I will say, 'I can't help you for I have conveyed Allâh's Message to you,' or one carrying clothes that will be fluttering, and the man will say, 'O Allâh's Messenger! Intercede with Allâh for me.' And I will say, 'I can't help you, for I have conveyed Allâh's Message to you.' " ( Sahîh Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 307, Vol. 4)
