Musnad Abi Ya'la 2135 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Do not ask
وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : لَا تَسْأَلُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ عَنْ شَيْءٍ ، فَإِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَهْدُوكُمْ وَقَدْ ضَلُّوا ، وَإِنَّكُمْ إِمَّا أَنْ تُصَدِّقُوا بِبَاطِلٍ ، وَإِمَّا أَنْ تُكَذِّبُوا بِحَقٍّ ، وَإِنَّهُ وَاللهِ لَوْ كَانَ مُوسَى حَيًّا بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِكُمْ مَا حَلَّ لَهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يَتَّبِعَنِي .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not ask the People of the Book about anything, for they will never be able to guide you when they themselves have gone astray; (the result of asking them will be that) you will either affirm something false or deny something true. And by Allah! Even if Musa (peace be upon him) were alive among you, nothing would be permissible for him except to follow me."
