أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ ؓ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:
لَا تَعْجَلُوا بِالْبَلِيَّةِ قَبْلَ نُزُولِهَا، فَإِنَّكُمْ إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا لَمْ يَنْفَكَّ الْمُسْلِمُونَ أَنْ يَكُونَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ إِذَا قَالَ وُفِّقَ، أَوْ قَالَ: سُدِّدَ، وَإِنَّكُمْ إِنِ اسْتَعْجَلْتُمْ بِالْبَلِيَّةِ قَبْلَ نُزُولِهَا ذَهَبَ بِكُمُ السَّبِيلُ هَاهُنَا وَهَاهُنَا

✧ Do not hasten toward a calamity before it descends, for if you do not, there will not cease to be among the Muslims someone who, when he speaks, is granted success, or is guided aright. But if you hasten toward the calamity before it descends, the path will lead you astray here and there.
