وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى : حَدَّثَنَا الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ ، ثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ الْأَجْلَحِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي الْهُذَيْلِ ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَمَّا هَلَكُوا قَصُّوا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khabbab bin al-Aratt (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, when the Children of Israel were ruined (religiously and morally), they made storytelling (that is, abandoning knowledge and practice in favour of mere sermons and tales) their hallmark."
Imam Abu Ya'la recorded it in his Musnad. Concerning its chain, the scholars say that its narrator al-Ajlah bin Abdullah al-Kindi is saduq (truthful) according to the majority, and Allamah al-Albani declared this hadith sahih (authentic).
