مُسْنَدُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ
Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ud
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5341 — he related: I heard a man reciting a verse
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ النَّزَّالَ بْنَ سَبْرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا يَقْرَأُ آيَةً سَمِعْتُ خِلَافَهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، فَقَالَ : كِلَاكُمَا مُحْسِنٌ ، قَالَ شُعْبَةُ : وَأَظُنُّهُ قَالَ : لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا ، فَإِنَّ مَنْ قَبْلَكُمُ اخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ فَهَلَكُوا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he related: "I heard a man reciting a verse of the Noble Qur'an differently from how I had heard it from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so I took him by the hand and came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Both of you are right.'" Imam Shu'bah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I think he (peace and blessings be upon him) also said: "Do not dispute among yourselves, for those before you perished only because they disputed (about the Book of Allah)."
