عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : رَخَّصَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي كُلِّ شِعْرٍ جَاهِلِيٍّ إِلَّا قَصِيدَتَيْنِ لِلْأَعْشَى زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ أَشْرَكَ فِيهِمَا .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted us every poem of the days of ignorance (to recite or hear), except two odes of al-A'sha, which he did not permit; the narrator claimed that in both odes that man had committed shirk (associating partners with Allah).
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ : رَخَّصَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي شِعْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ، إِلَّا قَصِيدَتَيْنِ لِلْأَعْشَى إِحْدَاهُمَا فِي أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ ، وَالْأُخْرَى فِي عَامِرٍ وَعَلْقَمَةَ . رَوَاهُ كُلُّهُ الْبَزَّارُ وَأَبُو يَعْلَى بِاخْتِصَارٍ ، وَفِي إِسْنَادِهِمَا مَنْ لَا تَقُومُ بِهِ حُجَّةٌ .
In one narration the words are: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted the poetry of the days of ignorance, except for two odes of al-A'sha: one of them is about the people of Badr, and the other is about Amir and Alqamah. Al-Bazzar recorded all these narrations, and Abu Ya'la recorded them in abridged form. In the chains of both are narrators who cannot be relied upon as proof.
عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " مَنْ أَحْدَثَ هِجَاءً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَاقْطَعُوا لِسَانَهُ " . قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ : مَعْنَاهُ : مَنْ هَجَا الْإِسْلَامَ . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ وَفِيهِ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ ، وَهُوَ مَتْرُوكٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever satirizes Islam, cut out his tongue." Abdullah bin Ahmad bin Hanbal says: Its meaning is: whoever satirizes Islam.

وَعَنْ بُرَيْدَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " مَنْ قَالَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ شِعْرًا مُقْذِعًا فَلِسَانُهُ هَدَرٌ " . رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ وَفِي بَعْضِهِمْ خِلَافٌ .
Sayyiduna Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever composes obscene poetry about Islam, his tongue is forfeit."
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy), although there is disagreement about some of them.
