Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 41, Hadith 39

Narrated Ibn Ashwa: from Yazid bin Salamah Al-Ju’fi, he said: “Yazid bin Salamah ‘O Messenger of Allah! I heard so many narrations from you that I am afraid the last of them will cause me to forget the first of them. So narrate a statement to me that will encompass them.’ So he said: ‘Have Taqwa of Allah with what you learn.'”

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَشْوَعَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ الْجُعْفِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مِنْكَ، حَدِيثًا كَثِيرًا أَخَافُ أَنْ يُنْسِيَنِي، أَوَّلَهُ آخِرُهُ فَحَدِّثْنِي بِكَلِمَةٍ تَكُونُ جِمَاعًا ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏
“‏ اتَّقِ اللَّهَ فِيمَا تَعْلَمُ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ بِمُتَّصِلٍ وَهُوَ عِنْدِي مُرْسَلٌ ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْ عِنْدِي ابْنُ أَشْوَعَ يَزِيدَ بْنَ سَلَمَةَ وَابْنُ أَشْوَعَ اسْمُهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَشْوَعَ ‏.‏

Its canonical status is confirmed by its inclusion in the Kutub al-Sittah, the six books that form the primary foundation of Islamic tradition. These are the collections of al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawood, al-Tirmidhi himself, al-Nasa’i, and ibn Majah. This particular text is notable for its size and structure, comprising over 4,000 hadiths that are neatly divided into 46 separate books.
