Hadith 12

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه و سلم

"مِنْ حُسْنِ إسْلَامِ الْمَرْءِ تَرْكُهُ مَا لَا يَعْنِيهِ"

. حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ، رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ [رقم: 2318] ، ابن ماجه [رقم: 3976].

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:

“Part of the perfection of one’s Islam is his leaving that which does not concern him.”  (A hasan (good) hadeeth which was related by at-Tirmidhi and others in this fashion)

Summary of Discussion:

This hadith is so related to these days where most people especially adults feel so anxious about their lives. The overthinking we had each day gains unnecessary worries that are not in line with this hadits "leaving that which does not concern him."

There are 3 things that we should avoid when there are no benefits in it, such as:

1. Don't speak unless it is useful.

conversation can lead the speakers to somewhere good or bad based on the benefit in it, namely there are 4 types of conversation: 

• useful
• harmful
• worrisome (in the middle of useful and harmful)
• impractical (useless)

despite all types of conversation mentioned above, muslims only speak the "useful" things.

2. Don't do bad things both to others and our own selves.

"Bad Things" can be referred to something which can hurt anybody including our selves. In order to know the bad things, we need to learn about the concept of "knowledge" and "wisdom" first.

Knowledge and wisdom are two distinct concepts that are often used interchangeably but hold different meanings. While knowledge refers to the acquisition of information and facts, wisdom involves the application of knowledge along with experience, insight, and good judgment.

3. No need to overthink the unnecessary.

"Thinking" is part of the "act" we do as a muslim, this is the least thing we can do when something bad occured and appeared to us. Referring to the 34th Arbain Hadith which means: From Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri radhiyallahu 'anhu, he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah. said, 'Whoever of you sees evil, change it with your hand. If you can't, change it verbally. If you can't, deny it with your heart, and that is the weakest faith."
