مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ
مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ ، عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَة ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ :
" ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا أُهْلِكَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ قَبْلَكُمْ ، أَوْ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِكَثْرَةِ اخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ ، وَكَثْرَةِ سُؤَالِهِمْ ، فَانْظُرُوا مَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ فَاتَّبِعُوهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ ، وَمَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ فَدَعُوهُ أَوْ ذَرُوهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "As long as I leave you regarding a matter, you too leave me regarding it, because the nations before you were destroyed only due to excessive questioning and differing with their prophets. Whatever I forbid you from, abstain from it, and whatever I command you to do, do it to the best of your ability."
