Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 4319 — the Prophet ﷺ said: People are like

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ السَّامِيُّ ، قَالَ : نَا وُهَيْبُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : « إِنَّمَا النَّاسُ كَالْإِبِلِ الْمِائَةِ ، لَا يُوجَدُ فِيهَا رَاحِلَةٌ » .
هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ مَعْمَرٌ بِالْبَصْرَةِ ، وَرَوَاهُ بِصَنْعَاءَ : عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، وَهُوَ الصَّحِيحُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "People are like a hundred camels, among which not even one fit for riding is found."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Ma'mar narrated it like this (through Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him) in Basrah, whereas in San'a he narrated it from al-Zuhri, from Salim, from his father (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both), and that is the correct one."
