إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ وَاضِحٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ، ثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عُبَيْدَةَ الرَّبَذِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ وَغَيْرِهِ، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ ؓ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:
الْحَلَالُ بَيِّنٌ، وَالْحَرَامُ بَيِّنٌ، وَبَيْنَهُمَا مُشْتَبِهَاتٌ، فَمَنْ تَوَقَّاهُنَّ كَانَ أَتْقَى لِدِينِهِ، وَمَنْ وَاقَعَهُنَّ أَوْشَكَ أَنْ يُوَاقِعَ الْكَبَائِرَ، كَالْمُرْتَعِي إِلَى جَانِبِ الْحِمَى أَوْشَكَ أَنْ يُوَاقِعَهُ، وَإِنَّ لِكُلِّ مَلِكٍ حِمًى، وَحِمَى اللهِ تَعَالَى حُدُودُهُ

✧ The lawful is clear and the unlawful is clear, and between them are doubtful matters. Whoever avoids them is more pious for his religion, and whoever falls into them is on the verge of falling into major sins, like a shepherd grazing near a sanctuary is on the verge of entering it. Indeed, every king has a sanctuary, and Allah's sanctuary is His limits.
