حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ
خَطَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَطًّا بِيَدِهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: هَذَا سَبِيلُ اللهِ مُسْتَقِيمًا. قَالَ: ثُمَّ خَطَّ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَشِمَالِهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: هَذِهِ السُّبُلُ، لَيْسَ مِنْهَا سَبِيلٌ إِلَّا عَلَيْهِ شَيْطَانٌ يَدْعُو إِلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ وَأَنَّ هَذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَلا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ.

✧ The Prophet ﷺ drew a line with his hand and said, "This is the straight path of Allah." Then he drew lines to his right and left and said, "These are deviated paths, and on every one of them there is a devil calling to it." Then he recited, "And indeed, this is My path, which is straight, so follow it. And do not follow [other] paths." [Surah Al-An'am, 153]
