مُسْنَدُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ
Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ud
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5094 — the Prophet ﷺ said: Among those before you
حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ بَقِيَّةَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : إِنَّهُ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَانَ إِذَا عَمِلَ الْعَامِلُ مِنْهُمْ بِالْخَطِيئَةِ نَهَاهُ النَّاهِي تَعْذِيرًا ، فَإِذَا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ جَالَسَهُ ، وَآكَلَهُ ، وَشَارَبَهُ ، كَأَنْ لَمْ يَرَهُ عَلَى الْخَطِيئَةِ بِالْأَمْسِ ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُمْ ضَرَبَ بِقُلُوبِ بَعْضِهِمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ ، وَلَعَنَهُمْ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِمْ دَاوُدَ ، وَعِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ، ذَلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوْا وَكَانُوا يَعْتَدُونَ ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ ، لَتَأْمُرُنَّ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ ، وَلَتَنْهَوُنَّ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ ، وَلَتَأْطُرُنَّهُ عَلَى الْحَقِّ أَطْرًا ، أَوْ لَيَضْرِبَنَّ اللهُ قُلُوبَ بَعْضِكُمْ بِبَعْضٍ ، وَيَلْعَنَكُمْ كَمَا لَعَنَهُمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Among those before you, the Children of Israel, when someone committed a sin, the one who forbade him would forbid him merely as a formality, just to discharge the duty. Then the next day he would sit with that sinner and share his food and drink as though he had not seen him sinning the day before. So when Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, saw this conduct of theirs, He made their hearts like one another (and set them against each other), and He cursed them on the tongue of His prophets, Sayyiduna Dawud and Sayyiduna Isa bin Maryam (peace be upon them both): That was because they disobeyed and used to transgress. By the One in whose hand is my soul! You must enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil, and you must firmly compel the wrongdoer to come to the truth; otherwise Allah Almighty will make your hearts like one another as well, and will curse you just as He cursed them."
