(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَكْحُولٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : قِيلَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَتَى نَدَعُ الِائْتِمَارَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ ، وَالنَّهْيَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ ؟ قَالَ : " إِذَا ظَهَرَ فِيكُمْ مَا ظَهَرَ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِذَا كَانَتْ الْفَاحِشَةُ فِي كِبَارِكُمْ ، وَالْمُلْكُ فِي صِغَارِكُمْ ، وَالْعِلْمُ فِي رُذَالِكُمْ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a person submitted in the court of the Prophet, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! When will we abandon enjoining good and forbidding evil?" He replied, "When those things appear among you which had appeared among the Children of Israel: when indecency becomes prevalent among your elders, authority is given to the young, and knowledge is in the hands of the lowly."
