(4) باب ذِكْرِ أَعْظَمِ الذَّنْبِ وَاخْتِلاَفِ يَحْيَى وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَلَى سُفْيَانَ فِي حَدِيثِ وَاصِلٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فِيهِ
It was narrated that 'Abdullah said:
"I asked the Messenger of Allah [SAW], which sin is most grievous?" He said: "Shirk, setting up a rival to Allah, committing adultery with your neighbor's wife, and killing your child for fear of poverty, and that he may eat with you." Then 'Abdullah recited the Verse: "And those who invoke not any other Ilah (god) along with Allah." (FR)
