Sunan Ibn Majah 3972 (Book 36, Hadith 47) #33327
Adhering Steadfastly to Islam

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advised Sufyan bin 'Abdullah Thaqafi to adhere steadfastly to Islam by saying "Allah is my Lord" and warned him of the dangers of speaking without thinking.

Sufyan bin 'Abdullah Thaqafi said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, tell me of something that I can adhere to.’ He said: 'Say: "Allah is my Lord," then stand straight (adhere steadfastly to Islam).’ He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is the thing that you fear most for me?’ The Messenger of Allah took hold of his own tongue, then he said: 'This.’"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ، مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مَاعِزٍ الْعَامِرِيِّ، أَنَّ سُفْيَانَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الثَّقَفِيَّ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَدِّثْنِي بِأَمْرٍ أَعْتَصِمُ بِهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ قُلْ رَبِّيَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَقِمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أَكْثَرُ مَا تَخَافُ عَلَىَّ فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ بِلِسَانِ نَفْسِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ هَذَا
