Sahih al-Bukhari 7282 (Book 96, Hadith 14) #6989
The Importance of Staying on the Straight Path
SUMMARY: The essence of this hadith is to encourage people to stay on the straight path and not deviate from it, as doing so will lead them astray.
Narrated Hammam: Hudhaifa said, "O the Group of Al-Qurra! Follow the straight path, for then you have taken a great lead (and will be the leaders), but if you divert right or left, then you will go astray far away".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، قَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْقُرَّاءِ اسْتَقِيمُوا فَقَدْ سُبِقْتُمْ سَبْقًا بَعِيدًا فَإِنْ أَخَذْتُمْ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالاً، لَقَدْ ضَلَلْتُمْ ضَلاَلاً بَعِيدًا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith reminds us about the importance of staying on the straight path in life. Hudhaifa advises a group of reciters to follow this path because it leads to success and greatness. He warns that if they choose to go right or left, they will lose their way and stray far from what is right. The values taught in this hadith include guidance, leadership, and avoiding deviation. It teaches us that by following the straight path, we can become leaders ourselves. However, if we allow ourselves to be swayed by distractions or temptations along the way, we risk losing our direction and straying off course. Children can learn from this hadith that it`s important for them to make good choices and stay focused on what is right. Just like following a map helps us reach our destination safely without getting lost, sticking to the straight path in life ensures we make wise decisions and avoid going astray.
