Hadith 8736

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ أَذْهَبَ عَنْكُمْ عُبِّيَّةَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَفَخْرَهَا بِالْآبَاء ، مُؤْمِنٌ تَقِيٌّ ، وَفَاجِرٌ شَقِيٌّ ، وَالنَّاسُ بَنُو آدَمَ ، وَآدَمُ مِنْ تُرَابٍ ، لَيَنْتَهِيَنَّ أَقْوَامٌ فَخْرَهُمْ بِرِجَالٍ ، أَوْ لَيَكُونُنَّ أَهْوَنَ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ عِدَّتِهِمْ مِنَ الْجِعْلَانِ الَّتِي تَدْفَعُ بِأَنْفِهَا النَّتَنَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, has removed from you the pride of the Age of Ignorance and boasting about your forefathers. Now, either a person will be a pious Muslim or a wretched sinner. All people are the children of Adam (peace be upon him), and Adam (peace be upon him) was created from clay. People should refrain from boasting about their ancestors, otherwise, in the sight of Allah, they will be more insignificant than a goat whose body has started to stink and people are willing to pay money to get rid of it.
