أَخْبَرَنَا أَخْبَرَنَا
مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا
سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ
رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: قَالَ
مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ:
"يُفْتَحُ الْقُرْآنُ عَلَى النَّاسِ حَتَّى يَقْرَأَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ وَالصَّبِيُّ وَالرَّجُلُ، فَيَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ: قَدْ قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ فَلَمْ أُتَّبَعُ، وَاللَّهِ لَأَقُومَنَّ بِهِ فِيهِمْ لَعَلِّي أُتَّبَعُ، فَيَقُومُ بِهِ فِيهِمْ فَلَا يُتَّبَعُ، فَيَقُولُ: قَدْ قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ فَلَمْ أُتَّبَعْ، وَقَدْ قُمْتُ بِهِ فِيهِمْ، فَلَمْ أُتَّبَعْ، لأَحْتَظِرْنَّ فِي بَيْتِي مَسْجِدًا لَعَلِّي أُتَّبَعْ، فَيَحْتَظِرُ فِي بَيْتِهِ مَسْجِدًا فَلَا يُتَّبَعُ، فَيَقُولُ: قَدْ قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ فَلَمْ أُتَّبَعْ، وَقُمْتُ بِهِ فِيهِمْ فَلَمْ أُتَّبَعْ، وَقَدْ احْتَظَرْتُ فِي بَيْتِي مَسْجِدًا , فَلَمْ أُتَّبَعْ، وَاللَّهِ لَآتِيَنَّهُمْ بِحَدِيثٍ لَا يَجِدُونَهُ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ لَعَلِّي أُتَّبَعُ، قَالَ مُعَاذٌ: فَإِيَّاكُمْ وَمَا جَاءَ بِهِ فَإِنَّ مَا جَاءَ بِهِ ضَلَالَةٌ".
Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Noble Qur’an will become easy for the people until women, children, and men all will recite it. A man will say, “I have recited the Holy Qur’an but I am not followed; by Allah, I will surely recite it (again), perhaps I will be followed.” Thus, he will recite it again, and still no one will follow him. Then he will say, “I have recited the Qur’an but I was not followed; I stood up with it among them, yet it was of no benefit. Now I will build a mosque in my house, perhaps I will be followed.” So he will build a mosque in his house, but still he will not be followed. Then he will say, “I have recited the Qur’an but I was not followed; I stood up with it, yet I was not followed; I built a mosque in my house, yet I was not followed. By Allah, now I will bring to them things which they will neither find in the Book of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, nor have they heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), perhaps then I will be followed.” Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Beware! Avoid what he tells you (whatever he brings besides the Qur’an and Sunnah), for it is misguidance.
