English narration

Narrated by أبو هريرة الدوسي

Abu Hurairah reported the Prophet ﷺ as saying “ Every child of Adam has his share in adultery. He then narrated the rest of the tradition. This version goes “And the hands commit adultery; their adultery is catching; and the legs commit adultery; their adultery is walking; and the mouth commits adultery – its adultery is kissing. ”

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : "

لِكُلِّ ابْنِ آدَمَ حَظُّهُ مِنَ الزِّنَا

" ، بِهَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ ، قَالَ : " وَالْيَدَانِ تَزْنِيَانِ فَزِنَاهُمَا الْبَطْشُ ، وَالرِّجْلَانِ تَزْنِيَانِ فَزِنَاهُمَا الْمَشْيُ ، وَالْفَمُ يَزْنِي فَزِنَاهُ الْقُبَلُ " .
