Obey Gods commands

This hadith speaks about the importance of submission to God. It was narrated on the authority of Abu 'Abd al-Rahman from 'Ali that the Messenger of Allah sent a force on a mission and appointed over them a man. He kindled a fire and said, “Enter it”. Some people made up their minds to enter it, but the others said, “We fled from the fire”. The matter was reported to the Messenger of Allah who said that if they had entered it, they would have remained there until the Day of Judgment. He commanded the act of those who refused and said that there is no submission in matters involving disobedience or displeasure towards God; submission is only obligatory in what is good and reasonable. This hadith teaches us that we must always obey God's commands even if we don't understand why something has been asked from us because ultimately everything comes from Him for our own benefit even though we may not realize it at first glance. We must also remember that disobeying His orders will lead us astray so we should always strive for obedience instead.
