Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 9724 — Do not ask the People of the Book
حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ الْقَاضِي، ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ، أنا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزَّعْرَاءِ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: «لَا تَسْأَلُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ عَنْ شَيْءٍ، فَإِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَهْدُوكُمْ وَقَدْ أَضَلُّوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ، إِمَّا يُحَدِّثُونَكُمْ بِصِدْقٍ فَتُكَذِّبُونَهُمْ، أَوْ بِبَاطِلٍ فَتُصَدِّقُونَهُمْ»
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Do not ask the People of the Book about anything, for they cannot guide you when they have already led themselves astray. Either they will tell you something true and you will deny it, or something false and you will believe it."
