عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ ذُكِرَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ رِجَالٌ يَنْتَصِبُونَ فِي الْعِبَادَةِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ نَصَبًا شَدِيدًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((تِلْكَ ضَرَاوَةُ الْإِسْلَامِ وَشَرَّتُهُ وَلِكُلِّ ضَرَاوَةٍ شَرَّةٌ وَلِكُلِّ شَرَّةٍ فَتْرَةٌ فَمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى الْكِتَابِ وَالسُّنَّةِ فَلِأُمِّ مَا هُوَ وَمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى مَعَاصِي اللَّهِ فَذَلِكَ هُوَ الْهَالِكُ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was told about some of the companions who had become deeply engrossed in worship with great severity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This is the taste, intensity, and eagerness of Islam, and every taste has eagerness and excess in it, but after every excess there is also slackness and pause. So, whoever’s pause is towards the Book and the Sunnah, he has intended the straight path, and whoever’s slackness is towards disobedience to Allah Almighty, then he will be destroyed.
