heard Jarir bin Abdullãh _L
(praising Allah -) on the day when
A1-Mugira bin Shuba died, he (Jarir) got
up (on the pulpit) and thanked and praised
Allah and said, "Be afraid of Allah
j Alone. Who has none along with
Him to be worshipped. (You should) he calm
and quiet till the (new) chief comes to you
and he will come to you soon. Ask Allah's
forgiveness for your (late) chief because he
himself loved to forgive others." Jarir added,
"Ammã ba du (then after), I came to the
Prophet . and said, '0 Allah's Messenger! I
give my Baiãh (pledge) to you for Islam.'
The Prophet conditioned (my pledge) for
me to be sincere and true to every Muslim
i.e. to order them for the AI-Madf [i.e..
Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders
one to do, and to forbid them from the .1/-
Munkar (i.e., disbelief, polytheism of all
kinds, and all that Islam has forbidden), and
to help them, and to be merciful and kind to
them etc.], so I gave my pledge to him for
this. By the Lord of this mosque! I am sincere
and true to you (Muslims)
Then Jarir asked for Allah's forgiveness
and came down (from the pulpit).
