Sahih al-Bukhari 6785 (Book 86, Hadith 14) #6527
Sacredness of Life, Property & Honor

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ warned the people not to revert to disbelief after him by cutting the necks of each other and emphasized that Allah has made their blood, property and honor as sacred.

Narrated 'Abdullah: Allah Apostle said in Hajjat-al-Wada', "Which month (of the year) do you think is most sacred?" The people said, "This current month of ours (the month of Dhull-Hijja)". He said, "Which town (country) do you think is the most sacred?" They said, "This city of ours (Mecca)". He said, "Which day do you think is the most sacred?" The people said, "This day of ours". He then said, "Allah, the Blessed, the Supreme, has made your blood, your property and your honor as sacred as this day of yours in this town of yours, in this month of yours (and such protection cannot be slighted) except rightfully". He then said thrice, "Have I conveyed Allah's Message (to you)?" The people answered him each time saying, 'Yes". The Prophet added, 'May Allah be merciful to you (or, woe on you)! Do not revert to disbelief after me by cutting the necks of each other'.
حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ وَاقِدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، سَمِعْتُ أَبِي قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ ‏"‏ أَلاَ أَىُّ شَهْرٍ تَعْلَمُونَهُ أَعْظَمُ حُرْمَةً ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا أَلاَ شَهْرُنَا هَذَا‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ أَلاَ أَىُّ بَلَدٍ تَعْلَمُونَهُ أَعْظَمُ حُرْمَةً ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا أَلاَ بَلَدُنَا هَذَا‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ أَلاَ أَىُّ يَوْمٍ تَعْلَمُونَهُ أَعْظَمُ حُرْمَةً ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا أَلاَ يَوْمُنَا هَذَا‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى قَدْ حَرَّمَ دِمَاءَكُمْ وَأَمْوَالَكُمْ وَأَعْرَاضَكُمْ، إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهَا، كَحُرْمَةِ يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا، فِي بَلَدِكُمْ هَذَا، فِي شَهْرِكُمْ هَذَا، أَلاَ هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ ‏"‏‏.‏ ـ ثَلاَثًا كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يُجِيبُونَهُ أَلاَ نَعَمْ ـ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَيْحَكُمْ ـ أَوْ وَيْلَكُمْ ـ لاَ تَرْجِعُنَّ بَعْدِي كُفَّارًا، يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is conveying a message from Allah that He has made our lives, property and honor as sacred as this day in this month in this city. This means that we should not take away or harm any of these things without a valid reason. We should respect each other's lives, properties and honors just like we respect the sanctity of this day in Mecca during Dhul-Hijjah. We should also be aware that if we do something wrong or hurtful to someone else's life, property or honor then it will be considered a sin against Allah. Furthermore, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ warned us not to revert back to disbelief after him by cutting the necks of each other which means that we should never fight with one another over religious matters or beliefs because it will only lead us astray from the path of righteousness.
