حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ وَعَفَّانُ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى قَوْمٍ فِي رُءُوسِ النَّخْلِ، فَقَالَ: مَا يَصْنَعُ هَؤُلَاءِ؟ قَالُوا: يُلَقِّحُونَهُ، يَجْعَلُونَ الذَّكَرَ فِي الْأُنْثَى. قَالَ: مَا أَظُنُّ ذَلِكَ يُغْنِي شَيْئًا، فَأُخْبِرُوا بِذَلِكَ، فَتَرَكُوهُ، فَأُخْبِرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: إِنْ كَانَ يَنْفَعُهُمْ، فَلْيَصْنَعُوهُ، فَإِنِّي إِنَّمَا ظَنَنْتُ ظَنًّا، فَلَا تُؤَاخِذُونِي بِالظَّنِّ، وَلَكِنْ إِذَا أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ عَنِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِشَيْءٍ فَخُذُوهُ، فَإِنِّي لَنْ أَكْذِبَ عَلَى اللهِ شَيْئًا.

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ passed by some people on top of palm trees and said: 'What are these people doing?' They said: 'They are pollinating it, placing the male into the female.' He said: 'I do not think that helps at all.' They were informed of that, so they abandoned it. Then the Messenger of God ﷺ was informed, and he said: 'If it benefits them, let them do it, for I only had an opinion. Do not hold me to account for an opinion, but when I tell you something from God, Mighty and Majestic, then take it, for I will never lie about God at all.'
