حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
مَثَلُ الْقَائِمِ عَلَى حُدُودِ اللهِ وَالْمُدْهِنِ فِيهَا كَمَثَلِ قَوْمٍ اسْتَهَمُوا عَلَى سَفِينَةٍ فِي الْبَحْرِ، فَأَصَابَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَسْفَلَهَا، وَأَصَابَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَعْلَاهَا، فَكَانَ الَّذِينَ فِي أَسْفَلِهَا يَصْعَدُونَ فَيَسْتَقُونَ الْمَاءَ، فَيَصُبُّونَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ فِي أَعْلَاهَا، فَقَالَ الَّذِينَ فِي أَعْلَاهَا: لَا نَدَعُكُمْ تَصْعَدُونَ فَتُؤْذُونَنَا. فَقَالَ الَّذِينَ فِي أَسْفَلِهَا: فَإِنَّنَا نَنْقُبُهَا مِنْ أَسْفَلِهَا فَنَسْتَقِي. قَالَ: فَإِنْ أَخَذُوا عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ فَمَنَعُوهُمْ نَجَوْا جَمِيعًا، وَإِنْ تَرَكُوهُمْ غَرِقُوا جَمِيعًا

✧ The likeness of the one who upholds God's limits and the one who flatters regarding them is like a group of people who drew lots for places on a ship at sea. Some of them got its lower deck, and some got its upper deck. Those in the lower deck would climb up to draw water and pour it on those in the upper deck. Those in the upper deck said: 'We will not let you climb up and disturb us.' Those in the lower deck said: 'We will bore a hole in it from below and draw water.' He said: If they seize their hands and prevent them, they all survive; but if they leave them, they all drown.
