حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِجُدْعَانَ عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَاهُ فِيمَا يَرَى النَّائِمُ مَلَكَانِ، فَقَعَدَ أَحَدُهُمَا عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ، وَالْآخَرُ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، فَقَالَ الَّذِي عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ لِلَّذِي عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ: اضْرِبْ مَثَلَ هَذَا وَمَثَلَ أُمَّتِهِ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ مَثَلَهُ وَمَثَلَ أُمَّتِهِ كَمَثَلِ قَوْمٍ سَفْرٍ انْتَهَوْا إِلَى رَأْسِ مَفَازَةٍ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُمْ مِنَ الزَّادِ مَا يَقْطَعُونَ بِهِ الْمَفَازَةَ، وَلَا مَا يَرْجِعُونَ بِهِ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ أَتَاهُمْ رَجُلٌ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَبَرَةٍ، فَقَالَ: أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ وَرَدْتُ بِكُمْ رِيَاضًا مُعْشِبَةً، وَحِيَاضًا رُوَاءً أَتَتَّبِعُونِي ؟ فَقَالُوا: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقَ بِهِمْ، فَأَوْرَدَهُمْ رِيَاضًا مُعْشِبَةً، وَحِيَاضًا رُوَاءً، فَأَكَلُوا وَشَرِبُوا، وَسَمِنُوا، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: أَلَمْ أَلْقَكُمْ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ، فَجَعَلْتُمْ لِي إِنْ وَرَدْتُ بِكُمْ رِيَاضًا مُعْشِبَةً، وَحِيَاضًا رُوَاءً أَنْ تَتَّبِعُونِي، فَقَالُوا: بَلَى، قَالَ: فَإِنَّ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُمْ رِيَاضًا أَعْشَبَ مِنْ هَذِهِ، وَحِيَاضًا هِيَ أَرْوَى مِنْ هَذِهِ، فَاتَّبِعُونِي، قَالَ: فَقَالَتْ طَائِفَةٌ: صَدَقَ وَاللهِ لَنَتَّبِعَنَّهُ، وَقَالَتْ طَائِفَةٌ: قَدْ رَضِينَا بِهَذَا، نُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ was visited in a dream by two angels. One sat at his feet and the other at his head. The one at his feet said to the one at his head: "Strike a parable for this man and his community." He said: "His parable and that of his community is like a group of travelers who reached the edge of a desert, but they had no provisions to cross it or to return. While they were in that state, a man came to them wearing a striped garment and said: 'If I lead you to lush meadows and abundant watering places, will you follow me?' They said, 'Yes.' So he led them to lush meadows and abundant watering places, and they ate, drank, and grew fat. Then he said to them: 'Did I not find you in that earlier state, and you promised me that if I led you to lush meadows and abundant watering places, you would follow me?' They said, 'Yes.' He said: 'Ahead of you are meadows even lusher than these and watering places even more abundant than these, so follow me.' A group said: 'He has spoken truly, by God, let us follow him.' Another group said: 'We are content with this; we will stay here.'"
