Hadith 3 - The Halal is Clear and The Haram is Clear

Description
Hadiith 3 of the Al-Hikmah Institute course, Words to Live By: The Most Comprehensive Hadith of the Prophet.
On the authority of Al-Numan bin Basheer, who said : I heard the messenger of Allah salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam say : "That which is lawful is plain and that which is unlawful is plain and between the two of them are doubtful matters about which many people do not know. Thus he who avoids doubtful matters clears himself in regard to his religion and his honor, but he who falls into doubtful matters falls into that which is unlawful, like the shepherd who pastures around a sanctuary, all but grazing therein. Truly every king has a sanctuary, and truly Allah's sanctuary is His prohibitions. Truly in the body there is a morsel of flesh which, if it be whole, all the body is whole and which, if it be diseased, all of it is diseased. Truly it is the heart."
