Hadith 3

And by this chain –
‘A sermon of his-asws: ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj! We-asws praise Him-azwj Glorifying, and we-asws glorify Him-azwj with a mighty glorification due to the Might of His-azwj Majesty, and we extol His-azwj Oneness with extollations of a sincere unitarian, and we-asws thank Him-azwj regarding His-azwj excellent Making. He-azwj is deserving of the praise and the lofty extollations, and we-asws seek His-azwj Forgiveness for corrosiveness of the mistakes (sins), and seek His-azwj Excuse from the occasional sins of the afflictions, and we-asws believe in Allah-azwj (being) reassured regarding His-azwj Commands, and we‑asws seek His-azwj Guidance, the Protecting, the Saving, the Determined with the determinations, goodly Measured, Obligating, Decisive, Just, Spacious, Implementing with success, preceding with happiness in the Hidden Benevolent Book. And we-asws seek Refuge with Allah-azwj from the narrowness of the narrow ways upon its people after the widening of manifestos of truth, blurring the radiant signs of guidance by wearing the clothes of dilemmas of Fitna. And we-asws testify without suspicions of a state below sincere certainty that Allah-azwj is One, Individual. He-azwj Fulfils His-azwj Promise and His-azwj Ties are strong, His-azwj Words are true. There is neither any associate for Him-azwj in the Command nor is there any guardian for Him‑azwj from the disgrace. We-asws extolled His-azwj Greatness with Takbeer. There is no god except He-azwj, the Mighty, the Wise. And we-asws testify that Muhammad-saww is His-azwj servants. Allah-azwj Sent him-saww for His-azwj Revelation and His-azwj News, Appointing him-saww, and he-saww is His-azwj Rasool-saww and His-azwj Noor, Answered, Mentioned, performer, lamps of meteors illuminating, making insightful, an effacer, obliterator, vanisher of false rituals. A wading for the wading ones with a house of clashes, its darkness is deep Kufr, so he-saww cleared the opaque darkness, stagnant, pungent, by the decisiveness of his-saww signs from after the arrival of his-saww words; and he-saww decided the word for the reminded ones, by the Decisive (Verses) from it, proofs, and Allegorical (Verses) followed by the deviant heart seeking the interpretation, exposing to the Fitna encompassing its people. And the truth is a peak, irradiating. The one who obeys the Rasool-saww has obeyed Allah-azwj, and the one who obeys Allah-azwj deserves the Appreciation from Allah-azwj with excellent Recompense, while the one who disobeys Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww will witness the difficult Reckoning at the meeting, a Decree with the justice during the retaliation with the truth on a Day the creatures will be going to the Creator. As for after, a silent one listening to preaching, his silence will benefit him, and a silent one with understanding pre-occupies his heart with the contemplation regarding the Commands of Allah-azwj until he is insightful, so he recognises the merits of obeying Him-azwj upon disobeying Him-azwj, and the nobility of the peak of His-azwj Rewards over the release of His-azwj Punishment. And an informed, the achiever of His-azwj Satisfaction at the obligation of His-azwj Wrath during the decline of the Reckoning, and a difference between the two traits, and a distant one drawing closer what is between the two. I-asws advise you all with fearing Allah-azwj the Creator of the souls, and Splitter of the skies’’. [2]
