Sahih al-Bukhari 20

Hadith text

Narrated 'Aisha: Whenever Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ordered the Muslims to do something, he used to order them deeds which were easy for them to do, (according to their strength and endurance). They said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We are not like you. Allah has forgiven your past and future sins." So Allah's Apostle became angry and it was apparent on his face. He said, "I am the most Allah fearing, and know Allah better than all of you do

Ayesha (رضی اللہ عنہا) farmati hain ke jab bhi Allah ke Rasool (ﷺ) Musalmanon ko koi hukum dete, to aisa amal chunte jo unke liye asaan ho. Sahaba ne kaha: "Ya Rasoolallah, hum aap jaise nahi hain, Allah ne aapke agle-pichle gunah maaf kar diye hain." Yeh sunkar Aap (ﷺ) gussa hue, chehre se zahir hone laga, aur farmaya: "Main tum sab se zyada Allah se darne wala aur usay behtar jaanne wala hoon."
