Q 124: What is the textual proof from the Prophetic Sunnah that the Straight Path exists?
A--- Kuna Hadithi nyingi kuhusu hili. Miongoni mwazo, zilizo muhimu zaidi ni:
A--- There are many Hadiths regarding this. Foremost among which are:
Mjumbe wa Allah ﷺ alisema katika Hadithi ndefu, "Kisha daraja litawekwa juu ya Jahannamu (Moto). Mimi na wafuasi wangu tutakuwa wa kwanza kuvuka juu yake, na hakuna atakayezungumza siku hiyo isipokuwa Mitume. Na dua ya Mitume siku hiyo itakuwa, 'Ee Allah, okoa! Okoa!' Katika Jahannamu (au juu ya Daraja) kutakuwa na ndoano kama miiba ya As-Sa'dan (mmea wenye miiba).Je, mmeona As-Sa'dan?" Wakajibu, "Ndiyo, ee Mjumbe wa Allah!" Akasema: "Basi ndoano hizo zinafanana na miiba ya As-Sa'dan, lakini hakuna ajuaye ukubwa wake isipokuwa Allah."
Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) said in a lengthy Hadith, "Then a bridge will be laid across Hell (Fire). I and my followers will be the first ones to go across it and none will speak on that Day except the Messengers. And the invocation of the Messengers on that Day will be, 'O Allah, save! Save!' In Hell (or over the Bridge) there will be hooks like the thorns of As-Sa' dan (thorny plant).Have you seen As-Sa 'dan?" They replied, "Yes, O Allah's Messenger!" He said: "So those hooks look like the thorns of As-Sa' dan, but none knows how big they are except Allah.
Ndoano hizo zitawaondoa watu kulingana na matendo yao. Baadhi ya watu wataendelea kubaki Jahannamu (wataangamizwa) kwa sababu ya matendo yao maovu, na baadhi yatakatwa au kuraruliwa na ndoano hizo (na kuanguka Jahannamu), kisha baadhi yao watapata nafuu. Allah atakapokwisha kutoa hukumu zake miongoni mwa watu, atawatoa Jahannamu wale anaowataka kwa rehema yake. Kisha ataamuru Malaika wawatoe Motoni wale wote ambao walikuwa wakimwabudu Allah peke yake, miongoni mwa wale ambao Allah alitaka kuwarehemu, na wale waliokuwa wakishuhudia (duniani) kwamba hakuna haki ya kuabudiwa isipokuwa Allah. Malaika watawatambua Motoni kwa alama za sujuda (kwenye paji zao la uso), kwani Moto utaila miili yote ya binadamu isipokuwa alama iliyosababishwa na sujuda, kwa kuwa Allah ameukataza Moto kula alama ya sujuda. Watatoka Motoni wakiwa wameungua kabisa, kisha maji ya uhai yatamwagwa juu yao nao wataota chini yake kama mbegu inavyoota katika tope lililoletwa na mafuriko." (Bukhari na Muslim)
Those hooks will snap the people away according to their deeds. Some of the people will stay in Hell (be destroyed) because of their (evil) deeds, and some will be cut or torn by the hooks (and fall into Hell) and some and then relieved. When Allah has finished His Judgments among the people, He will take whomever He will out of Hell through His Mercy. He will then order the angels to take out of the Fire all those who used to worship none but Allah from among those whom Allah wanted to be merciful to and those who testified (in the world) that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah. The angels will recognize them in the Fire by the marks of prostration (on their foreheads), for the Fire will eat up all the human body except the mark caused by prostration as Allah has forbidden the Fire to eat the mark of prostration. They will come out of the (Hell) Fire, completely burnt and then the water of life will be poured over them and they will grow under it as does a seed that comes in the mud of the torrent." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (Allah awe radhiya) alisema: Nimefahamu kwamba Daraja (Njia Iliyonyooka) ni nyembamba kuliko nywele na kali kuliko upanga.
Abu Sa' id AI-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) said: I have come to know that the Bridge (the Straight Path) is thinner than a hair and sharper than the sword.
