Musnad Ahmad 7321 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
(حديث مرفوع) (حديث موقوف) " إِنَّمَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ النَّاسِ ، كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ اسْتَوْقَدَ نَارًا ، فَلَمَّا أَضَاءَتْ مَا حَوْلَهُ جَعَلَ الْفَرَاشُ ، وَالدَّوَابُّ تَتَقَحَّمُ فِيهَا ، فَأَنَا آخِذٌ بِحُجَزِكُمْ ، وَأَنْتُمْ تَوَاقَعُونَ فِيهَا " .
And the example of me and the people is like that of a person who kindled a fire; when the fire illuminated the surroundings, moths and insects began to fall into it. So I am grabbing you by the back to pull you away, but you keep falling into it.
