حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ وَحَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ أَبِي النَّجُودِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ
خَطَّ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَطًّا ثُمَّ قَالَ: هَذَا سَبِيلُ اللهِ، ثُمَّ خَطَّ خُطُوطًا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: هَذِهِ سُبُلٌ ( قَالَ يَزِيدُ ) مُتَفَرِّقَةٌ عَلَى كُلِّ سَبِيلٍ مِنْهَا شَيْطَانٌ يَدْعُو إِلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ: وَأَنَّ هَذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَلا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ.

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ drew lines for us and said, "This is the way of Allah." Then he drew lines to the right and left of it and said, "These are other ways." He added, "There are devils upon every one of these ways, inviting people to it." Then he recited, "And indeed, this is My straight path, so follow it; and do not follow other ways, for it will separate you from His way." [Surah Al-An'am: 153]
