The Consequences of Not Fighting

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ taught that those who do not fight or think of fighting have died on one of the branches of hypocrisy.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet said: "Whoever dies without having fought or thought of fighting, he dies on one of the branches of hypocrisy".
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْوَرْدِ - قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ سُمَىٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَغْزُ وَلَمْ يُحَدِّثْ نَفْسَهُ بِغَزْوٍ مَاتَ عَلَى شُعْبَةِ نِفَاقٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith from the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) teaches us about the consequences of not fighting. It is narrated by Abu Hurairah that the Prophet said "Whoever dies without having fought or thought of fighting, he dies on one of the branches of hypocrisy". This means that if someone does not strive to fight for what is right and just in their life, they will be considered a hypocrite. Hypocrites are people who say one thing but do another; they pretend to believe in something but don't actually practice it. Therefore, this hadith encourages us to take action and fight for what we believe in so we can avoid being hypocrites. We should strive to make sure our words and actions match up with our beliefs so we can live a life free from hypocrisy.
