Hadith 1779

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ شَرِيكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي نَمِرٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لِقُرَيْشٍ: "أَنْتُمْ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِهَذَا الْأَمْرِ مَا كُنْتُمْ مَعَ الْحَقِّ إِلَّا أَنْ تَعْدِلُوا عَنْهُ فَتُلْحَوْنَ كَمَا تُلْحَى هَذِهِ الْجَرِيدَةُ" يُشِيرُ إِلَى جَرِيدَةٍ فِي يَدِهِ.
It is narrated from Ata bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said regarding the Quraysh: "You are the most deserving of this matter (caliphate) among the people as long as you adhere to the truth, except if you turn away from it, then you will be separated from it just as the bark is separated from the branch of this date-palm." The Prophet (ﷺ) was pointing to the date-palm branch he was holding in his hand.
