وَعَن أبي ذرٍّ قَالَ: أَمَرَنِي خَلِيلِي بِسَبْعٍ: أَمَرَنِي بِحُبِّ الْمَسَاكِينِ وَالدُّنُوِّ مِنْهُمْ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَنْظُرَ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ دُونِي وَلَا أَنْظُرَ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ فَوَقِي وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَصِلَ الرَّحِمَ وَإِنْ أَدْبَرَتْ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ لَا أَسْأَلَ أَحَدًا شَيْئًا] وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقُولَ بِالْحَقِّ وَإِنْ كَانَ مُرًّا وَأَمَرَنِي أنْ لَا أخافَ فِي اللَّهِ لومة لَا ئم وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَكْثِرْ مِنْ قَوْلِ: لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ فَإِنَّهُنَّ مِنْ كَنْزٍ تَحت الْعَرْش. رَوَاهُ أَحْمد
Abu Dharr Narrated from:
My friend (the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم ) commanded me to observe seven things: (1) He commanded me to love the poor and keep close to them.(2) He commanded me to look at one who is inferior to me (by worldly standards), and not to look at one who is superior to me (in possessing wealth and power).(3) He commanded me to join bonds of kinship even if the kins severe (such bonds).(4) He commanded me not to ask anyone for any thing.(5) He commanded me to speak the truth (under all circumstances) even if it is bitter (for the listeners).(6) He commanded me not to fear anyone's reproach in matters for Allah's sake (like enjoining piety and forbidding evil).(7) He commanded me to chant very often: (There is no might and power save in Allah). These (seven things) are part of the treasure under the throne (of Allah and from which blessings descend). [1]
