عَن أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ

Narrated by Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with him:

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:

لَا تَحَاسَدُوا

Do not envy one another,

وَلَا تَنَاجَشُوا

and do not artificially raise prices,

وَلَا تَبَاغَضُوا

and do not hate one another,

وَلَا تَدَابَرُوا

and do not turn away from one another,

وَلَا يَبِعْ بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَيْعِ بَعْضٍ

and do not undercut one another in trade,

وَكُونُوا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ إِخْوَانًا

and be, O servants of Allah, brothers.

الْمُسْلِمُ أَخُو الْمُسْلِمِ

A Muslim is the brother of another Muslim.

لَا يَظْلِمُهُ

He does not oppress him,

وَلَا يَخْذُلُهُ

nor does he fail him,

وَلَا يَكْذِبُهُ

nor does he lie to him,

وَلَا يَحْقِرُهُ

nor does he look down on him,

التَّقْوَى هَاهُنَا

Piety is here,

وَيُشِيرُ إِلَى صَدْرِهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ

and he pointed to his chest three times.

بِحَسْبِ امْرِئٍ مِنَ الشَّرِّ أَنْ يَحْقِرَ أَخَاهُ الْمُسْلِمَ

It is enough evil for a person to look down on his Muslim brother.

كُلُّ الْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ حَرَامٌ دَمُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَعِرْضُهُ

All of the Muslim is sacred to another Muslim: his blood, his wealth, and his honor.
