مُسْنَدِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6115 — he said: Indeed, everything has two ends
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ وَهْبًا يَقُولُ : إِنَّ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ طَرَفَيْنِ وَوَسَطًا ، فَإِذَا أُمْسِكَ بِأَحَدِ الطَّرَفَيْنِ مَالَ الْآخَرُ ، وَإِذَا أَمْسَكْتَ بِالْوَسَطِ اعْتَدَلَ الطَّرَفَانِ . وَقَالَ : عَلَيْكَ بِالْأَوْسَاطِ مِنَ الْأَشْيَاءِ .
It is narrated from Wahb (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: "Indeed, everything has two ends and a middle. When one of the two ends is held, the other (loses its balance and) tilts; and when it is held from the middle, both ends remain balanced." He also said: "It is incumbent upon you to adopt moderation and the middle path in all matters."
