Hadith 3713

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ ، أَنْبَأَنَا شَرِيكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ بَذِيمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَمَّا وَقَعَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي الْمَعَاصِي ، نَهَتْهُمْ عُلَمَاؤُهُمْ ، فَلَمْ يَنْتَهُوا ، فَجَالَسُوهُمْ فِي مَجَالِسِهِمْ قَالَ يَزِيدُ : أَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ : وَأَسْوَاقِهِمْ ، وَوَاكَلُوهُمْ وَشَارَبُوهُمْ ، فَضَرَبَ اللَّهُ قُلُوبَ بَعْضِهِمْ بِبَعْضٍ ، وَلَعَنَهُمْ عَلَى لِسَانِ دَاوُدَ ، وَعِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ، ذَلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوْا وَكَانُوا يَعْتَدُونَ " ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُتَّكِئًا ، فَجَلَسَ ، فَقَالَ : " لَا ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ ، حَتَّى تَأْطُرُوهُمْ عَلَى الْحَقِّ أَطْرًا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the Children of Israel became involved in sins, their scholars forbade them from it, but when they did not desist, even then their scholars continued to sit in their gatherings and eat and drink with them. As a result, Allah joined their hearts together and cursed them through the tongues of Dawud and 'Isa (peace be upon them), because they were disobedient and used to transgress the limits." When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was narrating this hadith, he was reclining on a cushion, then he sat up straight and said: "No, by Him in Whose hand is my soul, when you do not turn the people towards the truth (then sitting, associating, and eating and drinking with them will include you among them)."
