أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ ابْنِ خُثَيْمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَابِطٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِكَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ «يَا كَعْبَ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ أَعَاذَنَا اللَّهُ مِنْ إِمَارَةِ السُّفَهَاءِ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا إِمَارَةُ السُّفَهَاءِ؟ قَالَ «أُمَرَاءُ يَكُونُونَ بَعْدِي لَا يَهْتَدُونَ بِهَدْيِي وَلَا يَسْتَنُّونَ بِسُنَّتِي فَمَنْ صَدَّقَهُمْ بِكِذْبِهِمْ وَأَعَانَهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ فَأُولَئِكَ لَيْسُوا مِنِّي وَلَسْتُ مِنْهُمْ وَلَا يَرِدُوا عَلَيَّ حَوْضِي وَمَنْ لَمْ يُصَدِّقْهُمْ بِكِذْبِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُعِنْهُمْ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ فَهُمْ مِنِّي وَأَنَا مِنْهُمْ وَسَيَرِدُونَ عَلَيَّ حَوْضِي يَا كَعْبَ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ الصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ وَالصَّدَقَةُ تُطْفِئُ الْخَطِيئَةَ وَالصَّلَاةُ بُرْهَانٌ أَوْ قَالَ » قُرْبَانٌ يَا كَعْبَ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ النَّاسُ غَادِيَانِ فَمُبْتَاعٌ نَفْسَهُ فَمُعْتِقُهَا وَبَائِعٌ نَفْسَهُ فَمُوبِقُهَا

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Kaʿb b. ʿUjrah: “O Kaʿb b. ʿUjrah, may Allah protect us from the rule of the foolish.” They said, “O Messenger of Allah, what is the rule of the foolish?” He said, “Rulers who will be after me who do not follow my guidance and do not practice my Sunnah. Whoever believes them in their lies and helps them in their wrongdoing, those are not from me and I am not from them, and they will not come to my basin. Whoever does not believe them in their lies and does not help them in their wrongdoing, they are from me and I am from them, and they will come to my basin. O Kaʿb b. ʿUjrah, fasting is a shield, charity extinguishes sin, and prayer is a proof”—or he said, “a means of nearness.”—“O Kaʿb b. ʿUjrah, people set out in the morning: one sells his soul and sets it free, and another sells his soul and destroys it.”
