أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ حَدَّثَنَا بُرَيْدٌ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ
«إِنَّ مَثَلِي وَمَثَلَ مَا بَعَثَنِي اللَّهُ بِهِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ أَتَى قَوْمَهُ فَقَالَ يَا قَوْمِ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الْجَيْشَ وَإِنِّي أَنَا النَّذِيرُ فَأَطَاعَهُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ فَانْطَلَقُوا عَلَى مَهْلِهِمْ فَنَجَوْا وَكَذَّبَهُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ فَأَصْبَحُوا مَكَانَهُمْ فَصَبَّحَهُمُ الْجَيْشُ وَأَهْلَكَهُمْ وَاجْتَاحَهُمْ فَذَلِكَ مَثَلُ مَنْ أَطَاعَنِي وَاتَّبَعَ مَا جِئْتُ بِهِ وَمَثَلُ مَنْ عَصَانِي وَكَذَّبَ مَا جِئْتُ بِهِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ»

✧ Verily, my example and the example of what Allah has sent me with is like a man who came to his people and said, 'O my people, I have seen the army, and I am the warner, so a group of his people obeyed him and went at their own pace and were saved, but a group of them disbelieved him, so they remained in their places, and the army came upon them in the morning and destroyed them and annihilated them. That is the example of one who obeys me and follows what I have brought, and the example of one who disobeys me and disbelieves what I have brought of the truth.'
