Silsilah as-Sahihah 339 — Disputing over the Book of Allah leads

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr رضي الله عنه that he said: One day, I went to the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم at noon. He heard the voices of two men who were disputing about a verse. The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم came to us, and signs of anger could be seen on his face. He صلى الله عليه وسلم said: "Those before you were destroyed only because they differed concerning the Book."
