عن أبي سفيان صخر بن حرب رضي الله عنه قال: قال هِرَقل: فماذا يَأمُرُكُم -يعني: النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم- قال أبو سفيان: قلت: يقول: «اعبدُوا الله وَحدَه لاَ تُشرِكُوا بِهِ شَيئًا، وَاترُكُوا ما يَقُول آبَاؤُكُم، ويَأمُرُنَا بِالصَّلاَة، والصِّدق، والعَفَاف، والصِّلَة».
Kutoka kwa Abuu Sufiyan Swakhar bin Harbi -Radhi za Mwenyezi Mungu ziwe juu yake- Amesema: alisema Hiraqli: Hivi anawaamrisha nini? Yaani: Mtume -Rehema na Amani ziwe juu yake, akasema Abuu Sufiyani nikasema: "Muabuduni Mwenyezi Mungu peke yake msimshirikishe yeye na chochote, na acheni wanayosema baba zenu, na anatuamrisha swala na ukweli, na kujizuia na machafu, na kuunga udugu".
Abu Sufyān Sakhr ibn Harb (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: Heraclius said: "What does the Prophet enjoin you to do?" I said: "He tells us to worship Allah alone, not to associate anything with Him and to give up all that our ancestors said. He also commands us to perform prayers, adhere to truthfulness, be chaste, and maintain ties of kinship."
