Allah the Exalted said,
[وَمَآ ءَاتَـكُمُ
الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَـكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانتَهُواْ]
(And whatsoever the Messenger gives you, take it; and whatsoever he forbids
you, abstain (from it).) meaning, `whatever the Messenger commands you, then do
it and whatever he forbids you, then avoid it. Surely, He only commands
righteousness and forbids evil.' Imam Ahmad recorded that `Abdullah bin Mas`ud
said, "Allah curses women who practice tattooing and those who get themselves
tattooed, and the women who remove the hair from their eyebrows and faces and
those who make artificial spaces between their teeth in order to look more
beautiful, whereby changing Allah's creation.'' His statement reached a woman
from Bani Asad called, Umm Ya`qub, who came to `Abdullah and said, "I have come
to know that you have cursed such and such'' He replied, "Why should I not curse
those whom Allah's Messenger has cursed and who are cursed in Allah's Book!''
Umm Ya`qub said, "I have read the whole Qur'an, but did not find in it what you
say.'' He said, "Verily, if you have read the Qur'an, you have found it. Didn't
you read,
[وَمَآ ءَاتَـكُمُ
الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَـكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانتَهُواْ]
(And whatsoever the Messenger gives you take it and whatsoever he forbids
you, you abstain (from it).)'' She replied, "Yes, I did.'' He said, "Verily,
Allah's Messenger forbade such things. '' "She said, "But I think that your wife
does these things'' He said, "Go and look at her.'' She went and watched her,
but could not see anything in support of her claim. She went back to `Abdullah
bin Mas`ud and said that she did not notice anything on his wife. On that he
said, "If my wife was as you thought, I would not keep her with me.'' The Two
Sahihs recorded this from the Hadith of Sufyan Ath-Thawri. As well as a Hadith
of Abu Hurayrah, who said that the Messenger of Allah said,
«إِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ
بِأَمْرٍ فَائْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ، وَمَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ
فَاجْتَنِبُوه»
(When I order you to do something, then do as much as you can of it. If I
forbid something for you, then shun it.) Allah's statement,
[وَاتَّقُواْ اللَّهَ
إِنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ آلْعِقَابِ]
(Have Taqwa of Allah; verily, Allah is Severe in punishment.) means, fear
Allah by obeying His orders and refraining from His prohibitions. Surely, Allah
is severe in punishment for those who defy Him and reject and disobey His
commands as well as, those who commit what He forbids and prohibits.
[لِلْفُقَرَآءِ
الْمُهَـجِرِينَ الَّذِينَ أُخْرِجُواْ مِن دِيَـرِهِمْ وَأَمْوَلِهِمْ يَبْتَغُونَ
فَضْلاً مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَناً وَيَنصُرُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ أُوْلَـئِكَ
هُمُ الصَّـدِقُونَ - وَالَّذِينَ تَبَوَّءُوا الدَّارَ وَالإِيمَـنَ مِن
قَبْلِهِمْ يُحِبُّونَ مَنْ هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلاَ يَجِدُونَ فِى صُدُورِهِمْ
حَاجَةً مِّمَّآ أُوتُواْ وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ
خَصَاصَةٌ وَمَن يُوقَ شُحَّ نَفْسِهِ فَأُوْلَـئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ -
وَالَّذِينَ جَآءُوا مِن بَعْدِهِمْ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لَنَا
وَلإِخْوَنِنَا الَّذِينَ سَبَقُونَا بِالإَيمَـنِ وَلاَ تَجْعَلْ فِى قُلُوبِنَا
غِلاًّ لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ رَبَّنَآ إِنَّكَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ ]
(8. (And there is also a share in this booty) for the poor emigrants, who
were expelled from their homes and their property, seeking bounties from Allah
and (His) good pleasure, and helping Allah and His Messenger. Such are indeed
the truthful.) (9. And (it is also for) those who, before them, had homes and
had adopted the faith, love those who emigrate to them, and have no jealousy in
their breasts for that which they have been given, and give them preference over
themselves even though they were in need of that. And whosoever is saved from
his own greed, such are they who will be the successful.) e(10. And those who
came after them say: "Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have preceded us
in faith, and put not in our hearts any hatred against those who have believed.
Our Lord! You are indeed full of kindness, Most Merciful.)
