Halal, haram dan syubhah

Hadis

On the authority of Abu 'Abdullah al-Nu'man bin Bashir, radiyallahu 'anhu, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, say: "Truly, what is lawful is evident, and what is unlawful is evident, and in between the two are matters which are doubtful which many people do not know. He who guards against doubtful things keeps his religion and honour blameless, and he who indulges in doubtful things indulges in fact in unlawful things, just as a shepherd who pastures his flock round a preserve will soon pasture them in it. Beware, every king has a preserve, and the things Allah has declared unlawful are His preserves. Beware, in the body there is a flesh; if it is sound, the whole body is sound, and if it is corrupt, the whole body is corrupt, and behold, it is the heart."

Huraian

Hadis ini membahagikan perkara kepada yang jelas halal, yang jelas haram dan perkara syubhah yang tidak jelas hukumnya bagi ramai orang. Menjauhkan diri daripada perkara yang meragukan merupakan langkah menjaga agama dan maruah. Hati dan akhlak juga dipengaruhi oleh apa yang seseorang ambil, makan, peroleh dan lakukan; sebab itu sikap berhati-hati dalam muamalat dan sumber rezeki mempunyai nilai yang besar.
