حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنْبَأَ جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ هَمَّامٍ قَالَ
كُنَّا عِنْدَ حُذَيْفَةَ فَذَكَرُوا {وَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْكُمْ بِمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ} [المائدة 44] فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ إِنَّ هَذَا فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ «نِعْمَ الْإِخْوَةُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ إِنْ كَانَ لَكُمُ الْحُلْوُ وَلَهُمُ الْمُرُّ كَلَّا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ حَتَّى تَحْذُوا السُّنَّةَ بِالسُّنَّةِ حَذْوَ الْقُذَّةَ بِالْقُذَّةَ»

We were with Ḥudhayfah, and they mentioned the verse, "And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed – then it is those who are the disbelievers." [Māʾidah 5:44] Then a man from the people said, "Indeed, this is concerning the Children of Israel." Ḥudhayfah responded ˹sarcastically˺, "What an excellent example are ʿyour˺ brothers in the Children of Israel: that all sweetness is for you and all bitterness is for them? Not at all! By the One in whose hand is my soul, until you follow the Sunnah (their legacy) with the Sunnah (as your legacy), step by step, just as you follow the Qudhah with the Qudhah."
