Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 15708 — The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave us

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْلِمٍ الْكَشِّيُّ، ثنا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو السُّلَمِيِّ، عَنِ الْعِرْبَاضِ بْنِ سَارِيَةَ السُّلَمِيِّ قَالَ: وَعَظَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَوْعِظَةً ذَرَفَتْ مِنْهَا الْأَعْيُنُ، وَوَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ، قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، هَذِهِ مَوْعِظَةُ مُوَدِّعٍ، فَأَوْصِنَا، قَالَ: «أُوصِيكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ، وَالسَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا، فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يَعِشْ بَعْدِي فَسَيَرَى اخْتِلَافًا كَثِيرًا، فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِسُنَّتِي وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ بَعْدِي الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ، وَعَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ، وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَمُحْدَثَاتِ الْأُمُورِ، فَإِنَّ كُلَّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ»
Sayyiduna al-Irbad bin Sariyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave us an admonition from which the eyes shed tears and the hearts became fearful. We said: "O Messenger of Allah, this seems like the admonition of one bidding farewell, so advise us." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I advise you to fear Allah, and to listen and obey, even if (the ruler) is an Abyssinian slave. For whoever among you lives after me will see much disagreement. So hold fast to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided caliphs (al-Khulafa' al-Rashidun) after me; bite onto it with your molar teeth. And beware of newly invented matters, for every innovation (bid'ah) is misguidance."
