Narrator:Hudhayfah

حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، أَنْبَأَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، وَحَمَّادٍ، وَعَاصِمِ بْنِ بَهْدَلَةَ، سَمِعُوا أَبَا وَائِلٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ عُمَرُ أَيُّكُمْ يَحْفَظُ مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الْفِتْنَةِ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ أَنَا ‏.‏ قَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ

فِتْنَةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَمَالِهِ وَوَلَدِهِ وَجَارِهِ يُكَفِّرُهَا الصَّلاَةُ وَالصَّوْمُ وَالصَّدَقَةُ وَالأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْىُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ ‏.‏

Abu Wa'il narrated from Hudhaifah that 'Umar said:

"Which of you remembers what the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said about the Fitnah?" So Hudhaifah said: "I do." Hudhaifah said: "A man's Fitnah is in his family, his wealth, his children, and his neighbors. It is atoned for by the Salat, fasting, charity, and by commanding good and forbidding evil." 'Umar said: "I am not asking you about this. Rather, about the Fitnah that spreads like the waves of the sea." He said: "O Commander of the Believers! Between you and it is a closed door." 'Umar said: "Will it be opened or broken?" He said: "It will be broken." He said: "Then it will never be closed until the Day of Judgement."

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( تُكَفِّرُهَا الصَّلَاةُ وَالصَّوْمُ وَالصَّدَقَةُ وَالْأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيُ عَنْ الْمُنْكَرِ ) قَالَ الْحَافِظُ فِي الْفَتْحِ : قَالَ بَعْضُ الشُّرَّاحِ يُحْتَمَلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْ الصَّلَاةِ وَمَا مَعَهَا مُكَفِّرَةً لِلْمَذْكُورَاتِ كُلِّهَا لَا لِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهَا , وَأَنْ يَكُونَ مِنْ بَابِ اللَّفِّ وَالنَّشْرِ بِأَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ مَثَلًا مُكَفِّرَةٌ لِلْفِتْنَةِ فِي الْأَهْلِ وَالصَّوْمَ فِي الْوَلَدِ إِلَخْ. وَالْمُرَادُ بِالْفِتْنَةِ مَا يَعْرِضُ لِلْإِنْسَانِ مَعَ مَنْ ذُكِرَ مِنْ الْبَشَرِ أَوْ الِالْتِهَاءُ بِهِمْ أَوْ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ لِأَجْلِهِمْ مَا لَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ أَوْ يُخِلَّ بِمَا يَجِبُ عَلَيْهِ. وَاسْتَشْكَلَ اِبْنُ أَبِي جَمْرَ…
