يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي مَا أَفْضَلُ الْإِسْلَامِ قَالَ الْإِيمَانُ بِاللَّهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَا ذَا قَالَ ثُمَّ صِلَةُ الرَّحِمِ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَا ذَا قَالَ الْأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ النَّهْيُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ قَالَ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ فَأَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَبْغَضُ إِلَى اللَّهِ قَالَ الشِّرْكُ بِاللَّهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَا ذَا قَالَ قَطِيعَةُ الرَّحِمِ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَا ذَا قَالَ الْأَمْرُ بِالْمُنْكَرِ وَ النَّهْيُ عَنِ الْمَعْرُوفِ .

Inform me, what is the most superior of Al-Islam?’ He<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘Belief in Allah<sup>azwj</sup>’. He said, ‘Then, what?’ He<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘Maintaining relationships’. He said, ‘Then what?’ He<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘The enjoining of the good and the forbidding of the evil’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So the man said, ‘So which is the most Hateful of the deeds to Allah<sup>azwj</sup>?’ He<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘The association (Shirk) with Allah<sup>azwj</sup>’. He said, ‘Then what?’ He<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘Cutting-off of relationships’. He said, ‘Then what?’ He<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘The enjoining of the evil and the forbidding from the good’.
