باب مَنْ قَالَ الْعِلْمُ الْخَشْيَةُ وَتَقْوَى اللَّهِ:Chapter: Knowledge is Fear of Allah and Piety
Hadith 307
أَخْبَرَنَا أَخْبَرَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ الْعَمِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ، عَنْ هَرِمِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: "إِيَّاكُمْ وَالْعَالِمَ الْفَاسِقَ، فَبَلَغَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ وَأَشْفَقَ مِنْهَا، مَا الْعَالِمُ الْفَاسِقُ ؟، قَالَ: فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ هَرِمٌ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، وَاللَّهِ مَا أَرَدْتُ بِهِ إِلَّا الْخَيْرَ: يَكُونُ إِمَامٌ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِالْعِلْمِ، وَيَعْمَلُ بِالْفِسْقِ، فَيُشَبِّهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ، فَيَضِلُّونَ".
Harm bin Hayan said: Beware of a sinful scholar. When this news reached Sayyiduna Umar bin Al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), he wrote to him, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) became concerned about it. He asked, "What do you mean by a sinful scholar?" Harm replied: "By Allah, O Commander of the Faithful! I only meant good by it. There is such an imam who speaks words of knowledge but acts with sin and immorality, and he puts people into doubt, so they go astray."
