357 - باب النهي عن الإشارة إلى مسلم بسلاح ونحوه سواء كان جادا أو مازحا والنهي عن تعاطي السيف مسلولا
Chapter 357
Prohibition of Pointing with a Weapon at another Brother in Faith
1783 - عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قال : [ لا يشر أحدكم إلى أخيه بالسلاح فإنه لا يدري لعل الشيطان ينزع في يده فيقع في حفرة من النار ] متفق عليه
وفي رواية لمسلم : قال قال أبو القاسم صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ من أشار إلى أخيه بحديدة فإن الملائكة تلعنه حتى ينزع وإن كان أخاه لأبيه وأمه ]
قوله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ ينزع ] ضبط بالعين المهملة مع كسر الزاي وبالغين المعجمة مع فتحها ومعناها متقارب . ومعناه بالمهملة : يرمي وبالمعجمة أيضا : يرمي ويفسد . وأصل النزع الطعن والفساد
1783. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "None of you should point at his brother with a weapon because he does not know that Satan may make it lose from his hand and, as a result, he may fall into a pit of Hell-fire (by accidentally killing him).''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
The narration in Muslim is: Abul-Qasim (i.e., the Messenger of Allah) (PBUH) said, "He who points at his (Muslim) brother with a weapon is cursed by the angels even if the other person should be his real brother.''
Commentary: "Silah'' is that weapon which is used in war for attack and defense, i.e., sword, gun, pistol, lance, etc. To point any such weapon towards a Muslim or Dhimmi, even to frighten him, is forbidden. It is very unfortunate that, contrary to the teachings of Islam, display and use of weapons are very common nowadays so much so that the fashion of air fire festivities is gaining increasing popularity in Muslim society. This fashion is totally against the teachings of Islam and its dangerous consequences are witnessed everyday. May Allah grant us guidance to follow the Right Path.
1784 - وعن جابر رضي الله عنه قال : نهى رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم أن يتعاطى السيف مسلولا . رواه أبو داود والترمذي وقال حديث حسن
1784. Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) prohibited from presenting a drawn sword to another.''
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi].
Commentary: If a naked sword drops from one's hand, it can injure one's hand, foot or any part of the body. Similar is the case of a sharp knife or any other similar weapon and tool. One should never give it to anyone from its blade side. When we study such things, we are really wonderstruck to see the care which Islam has taken to respect humanity.
