Sahih al-Bukhari 5669 (Book 75, Hadith 29) #5443
Disagreement Prevents Guidance

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a disagreement between people in the house of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) when he was on his deathbed. He wanted to write something for them so that they would not go astray, but they disagreed and caused a hue and cry, preventing him from doing so.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: When Allah's Messenger ﷺ was on his death-bed and in the house there were some people among whom was 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Come, let me write for you a statement after which you will not go astray"'.Umar said, "The Prophet ﷺ is seriously ill and you have the Qur'an; so the Book of Allah is enough for us". The people present in the house differed and quarrelled. Some said "Go near so that the Prophet ﷺ may write for you a statement after which you will not go astray," while the others said as 'Umar said. When they caused a hue and cry before the Prophet, Allah's Messenger ﷺ said, "Go away!" Narrated 'Ubaidullah: Ibn 'Abbas used to say, "It was very unfortunate that Allah's Messenger ﷺ was prevented from writing that statement for them because of their disagreement and noise".
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، وَحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ لَمَّا حُضِرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَفِي الْبَيْتِ رِجَالٌ فِيهِمْ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ‏"‏ هَلُمَّ أَكْتُبْ لَكُمْ كِتَابًا لاَ تَضِلُّوا بَعْدَهُ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَدْ غَلَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْوَجَعُ وَعِنْدَكُمُ الْقُرْآنُ، حَسْبُنَا كِتَابُ اللَّهِ فَاخْتَلَفَ أَهْلُ الْبَيْتِ فَاخْتَصَمُوا، مِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَقُولُ قَرِّبُوا يَكْتُبْ لَكُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ كِتَابًا لَنْ تَضِلُّوا بَعْدَهُ، وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَقُولُ مَا قَالَ عُمَرُ فَلَمَّا أَكْثَرُوا اللَّغْوَ وَالاِخْتِلاَفَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ‏"‏ قُومُوا ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ فَكَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الرَّزِيَّةَ كُلَّ الرَّزِيَّةِ مَا حَالَ بَيْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَبَيْنَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ لَهُمْ ذَلِكَ الْكِتَابَ مِنِ اخْتِلاَفِهِمْ وَلَغَطِهِمْ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the importance of unity and agreement among people. It tells us that when there is disagreement or quarreling among people, it can prevent them from receiving guidance or help from Allah's Messenger (PBUH). In this case, the Prophet wanted to write something for them so that they would not go astray, but due to their disagreement and noise he was prevented from doing so. This teaches us that we should strive for unity in our communities and avoid disagreements as much as possible if we want to receive guidance from Allah's Messenger. We should also remember that even if we disagree with someone else's opinion or point of view, it does not mean we have to argue with them or cause a disturbance; instead, we should try our best to remain respectful towards each other while still expressing our own opinions.
