Pointing a Weapon

Abu Huraira reported a hadith from Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) ; (one of them was this) that Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: None amongst you should point a weapon towards his brother, for he does not know that Satan might cause the weapon (to slip) from his hand and (he may injure anyone) and thus he may fall into Hell-Fire. (Muslim, 6338)

  1. subhanAllah…new hadith for me

  2. Subhan Allah, for me also it was a new hadith. When I read this hadith I realised why when we were small, all our elders used to tell not to point a knife to the person whom we are giving it:) Subhan Allah…

  3. Another reason to wonder: Indeed, our deen is perfect! How detailed is the teachings of our Prophet Sallallahu alaihiwassalma.

    On a side note, if someone asks you to get them a knife or a pair of scissors, screw driver etc, never point it to them while handing it over to them. I always do this, but didnt know there was a hadeeth for this! SubhanAllah!
