Sunan Ibn Majah 3949 (Book 36, Hadith 24) #33304
Tribalism and Doing Wrong

SUMMARY: Loving one's people is not wrong, but helping them to do wrong is considered tribalism.

'Abbad bin Kathir Ash-Shami narrated from a woman among them, called Fasilah, that she heard her father say: "I asked the Prophet : 'O Messenger of Allah, is it tribalism if a man loves his people?’ He said: 'No, rather tribalism is when a man helps his people to do wrong.’"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ الْيُحْمِدِيُّ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ الشَّامِيِّ، عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ، مِنْهُمْ يُقَالَ لَهَا فُسَيْلَةُ قَالَتْ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ، سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ ـ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَمِنَ الْعَصَبِيَّةِ أَنْ يُحِبَّ الرَّجُلُ قَوْمَهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ وَلَكِنْ مِنَ الْعَصَبِيَّةِ أَنْ يُعِينَ الرَّجُلُ قَوْمَهُ عَلَى الظُّلْمِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the concept of tribalism and how it relates to loving one's people. The Prophet Muhammad ? said that loving one's people is not wrong, but helping them to do wrong is considered tribalism. This means that even if someone loves their tribe or family, they should not help them in any wrongdoing or injustice as this would be considered a form of tribalism. It also teaches us that we should always strive for justice and fairness regardless of our relationships with others. We should never let our love for someone cloud our judgement when it comes to doing what is right and just.
