حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ خَلَّادٍ الْقَطَّانُ قَالَ : نَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ قَالَ : نَا الصَّعْقُ بْنُ حَزْنٍ ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ الْجَعْدِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ : دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، أَيُّ عُرَى الْإِيمَانِ أَوْثَقُ ؟ قُلْتُ : اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ ، قَالَ : I " أَوْثَقُ عُرَى الْإِسْلَامِ الْوَلَايَةُ فِي اللهِ ، وَالْحُبُّ فِيهِ ، وَالْبُغْضُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : I " يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ I " قُلْتُ : لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا : قَالَ : I " أَتَدْرِي ، أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ I " ، قُلْتُ : اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ : I " فَإِنَّ أَفْضَلَ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُهُمْ عَمَلًا ، إِذَا فَقِهُوا فِي دِينِهِمْ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : I " يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ I " ، قُلْتُ : لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ قَالَ : I " أَتَدْرِي ، أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَعْلَمُ ؟ I " ، قُلْتُ : اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ : I " إِنَّ أَعْلَمَ النَّاسِ أَبْصَرُهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ إِذَا اخْتَلَفَ النَّاسُ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مُقَصِّرًا فِي الْعَمَلِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ يَزْحَفُ عَلَى اسْتِهِ زَحْفًا ، وَاخْتَلَفَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلِي عَلَى ثِنْتَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ فِرْقَةً ، نَجَا مِنْهَا ثَلَاثٌ ، وَهَلَكَ سَائِرُهُمْ ، فِرْقَةٌ آزَتِ الْمُلُوكَ ، وَقَاتَلُوهُمْ عَلَى دِينِهِمْ وَدِينِ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ، فَأَخَذُوهُمْ ، فَقَتَلُوهُمْ ، وَقَطَّعُوهُمْ بِالْمَنَاشِيرِ ، وَفِرْقَةٌ لَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُمْ طَاقَةٌ بِمُوَازَاةِ الْمُلُوكِ ، وَلَا بِأَنْ يُقِيمُوا بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَيْهِمْ يَدْعُونَهُمْ إِلَى دِينِ اللهِ وَدِينِ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ، فَسَاحُوا فِي الْبِلَادِ ، وَتَرَهَّبُوا I " قَالَ : I " وَهُمُ الَّذِينَ قَالَ اللهُ : وَرَهْبَانِيَّةً ابْتَدَعُوهَا مَا كَتَبْنَاهَا عَلَيْهِمْ ، الْآيَةَ I " .
فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : I " مَنْ آمَنَ بِي ، وَاتَّبَعَنِي ، وَقَدْ صَدَّقَنِي ، فَقَدْ رَعَاهَا حَقَّ رِعَايَتِهَا ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَتَّبِعْنِي فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْهَالِكُونَ .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ إِلَّا عُقَيْلٌ الْجَعْدِيُّ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : الصَّعْقُ بْنُ حَزْنٍ I " .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'O Ibn Mas'ud, which handhold of faith is the firmest?' I said: Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'The firmest handhold of Islam is friendship for the sake of Allah, love for His sake, and enmity for His sake.' Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'O Ibn Mas'ud!' I said: 'Labbayka ya Rasul Allah' (Here I am, O Messenger of Allah). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times. Then he said: 'Do you know which people are the most excellent?' I said: Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Indeed, the most excellent people are those who are best in deeds, when they have gained understanding of their religion.' Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'O Ibn Mas'ud!' Three times I said: 'Labbayka ya Rasul Allah.' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Do you know which people are the most knowledgeable?' I said: Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Indeed, the most knowledgeable people are those with the clearest insight into the truth when people differ, even if they fall somewhat short in deeds, and even if they come crawling on their buttocks. Those who were before me split into seventy-two (72) sects; three of them were saved and all the rest perished. One group confronted the kings and fought them, holding fast to their own religion and the religion of Isa ibn Maryam (peace be upon him); so those kings seized them, killed them and sawed them apart with saws. Another group had neither the strength to oppose the kings nor the courage to stay among them calling them to the religion of Allah and the religion of Isa ibn Maryam (peace be upon him); so they went out wandering through the lands and adopted monasticism.' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'And they are the ones about whom Allah Almighty said: "And monasticism, which they innovated; We did not prescribe it for them."'"
Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever believes in me, follows me and affirms my truth has observed it (the religion) as it deserves to be observed; and whoever does not follow me, those are the ones who perish."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Abu Ishaq except Uqayl al-Ja'di, and al-Sa'q bin Hazn is alone in narrating it."
