Sahih Muslim 870 (Book 7, Hadith 60) #9157
The Right Path of Obedience

SUMMARY: Obeying Allah and His Messenger is the right path, while disobeying them leads to going astray.

'Adi b. Hatim reported: that a person recited a sermon before the Messenger of Allah thus: He who obeys Allah and His Apostle, he in fact follows the right path, and he who disobeys both of them, he goes astray. Upon this the Messenger of Allah said: What a bad speaker you are; say: He who disobeys Allah and His Apostle. Ibn Numair added: He in fact went astray.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ رُفَيْعٍ، عَنْ تَمِيمِ بْنِ طَرَفَةَ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، خَطَبَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ فَقَالَ مَنْ يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَدْ رَشِدَ وَمَنْ يَعْصِهِمَا فَقَدْ غَوَى ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ بِئْسَ الْخَطِيبُ أَنْتَ ‏.‏ قُلْ وَمَنْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ فَقَدْ غَوِيَ

Obey Allah & his messenger

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of obedience to Allah and His Messenger in order to stay on the right path. It is narrated by 'Adi b. Hatim that a person recited a sermon before the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ saying that whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger follows the right path, while whoever disobeys them goes astray. The Prophet ﷺ corrected him by saying that it should be said “whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger” instead of “he who disobeys both of them” as this would make it more clear for people to understand what he meant. This hadith teaches us that we must obey Allah and His messenger in order to stay on the right path, as disobedience will lead us astray from our faith and beliefs.
