The question

Is there a Prophetic Hadith stating that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said to one of the Companions: "If you were to do one-tenth less of what you are doing, you would enter the Hellfire, and there will come people who, if they were to do one-tenth of what you are doing, they would enter Paradise"?

The answer

Al-Tirmidhi narrated a hadith from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, you are in a time when whoever among you abandons a tenth of what he is commanded will perish. Then there will come a time upon you when whoever among you acts upon a tenth of what he is commanded will be saved." Al-Tirmidhi described it as a gharib hadith, and Ibn al-Jawzi included it in Al-Wahiyat (the Fabricated Reports). Al-Nasa'i said it is a munkar (denounced) hadith, and Sheikh Al-Albani declared it weak.
