Musnad Abi Ya'la 3996 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: On the night I
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : مَرَرْتُ لَيْلَةَ أُسْرِيَ بِي عَلَى قَوْمٍ تُقْرَضُ شِفَاهُهُمْ بِمَقَارِيضَ مِنَ النَّارِ ، قُلْتُ : مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ ؟ قَالَ : هَؤُلَاءِ خُطَبَاءُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا مِمَّنْ كَانُوا يَأْمُرُونَ النَّاسَ بِالْبِرِّ وَيَنْسَوْنَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ وَهُمْ يَتْلُونَ الْكِتَابَ ، أَفَلَا يَعْقِلُونَ ؟ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "On the night I was taken on the Night Journey (Mi'raj), I passed by people whose lips were being cut with scissors of fire. I asked: Who are these people? (Jibril (peace be upon him)) said: These are the preachers (orators) of the world who used to enjoin righteousness on the people and forget themselves, while they recited the Book of Allah; did they not use their reason?"
