Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Chapter on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
Religion is sincere advice: for Allah, His Messenger, the leaders of the Muslims, and their common people. الدين النصيحة : لله ولرسوله ولأئمة المسلمين وعامتهم
. And His saying, the Exalted:
when they are sincere to Allah and His Messenger إذا نصحوا لله ورسوله
[At-Tawbah 9:91]
.

The Shaykh : Also, with this title, al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) intended to clarify that sincere advice is part of the religion, and if it is part of the religion, it is subject to increase and decrease.
And His saying:
when they are sincere to Allah and His Messenger إذا نصحوا لله ورسوله
[At-Tawbah 9:91]
This is in the context of His saying, the Exalted:
There is not upon the weak or upon the ill or upon those who do not find anything to spend any discomfort when they are sincere to Allah and His Messenger ليس على الضعفاء ولا على المرض ولا على الذين لا يجدون ما ينفقون حرج إذا نصحوا لله ورسوله
[At-Tawbah 9:91]
So He negated any hardship for them on this condition, if they are sincere to Allah and His Messenger. And how are they to be sincere to Allah and His Messenger?
That is, to the extent that were it not for this impediment, they would have fought in the cause of Allah. This is the mark of the Muslim. Also, they do not neglect what Allah has made obligatory upon them of other matters, because one who lags behind in jihad and neglects the other obligations is not sincere to Allah and His Messenger as he should be. So if you know this condition regarding those who left jihad for an excuse, you know that the matter is severe, and that it is necessary for one who lags behind in worship for an excuse to have sincerity to Allah and His Messenger in his heart. Yes.
