بَابُ : مَا كُرِهَ مِنَ الشِّعْرِ
Chapter: What kind of poetry is undesirable
Hadith 3759
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ , حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ , وَأَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ , وَوَكِيعٌ , عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ , عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ , عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ , قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَأَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ جَوْفُ الرَّجُلِ قَيْحًا , حَتَّى يَرِيَهُ خَيْرٌ لَهُ , مِنْ أَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ شِعْرًا " , إِلَّا أَنَّ حَفْصًا لَمْ يَقُلْ : " يَرِيَهُ " .
´It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah(ﷺ) said:` "If a man were to fill his stomach completely with pus until it destroyed him, that would be better for him than filling (his mind) with poetry."
