أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الذَّنْبِ أَعْظَمُ؟ قَالَ «الشِّرْكُ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًا وَأَنْ تُزَانِي حَلِيلَةَ جَارِكَ وَأَنْ تَقْتُلَ وَلَدَكَ خَشْيَةَ الْفَقْرِ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مَعْكَ» ثُمَّ قَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ {وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِى حَرَّمَ اللهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَ} قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا خَطَأٌ لَا نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ أَحَدًا تَابَعَ يَزِيدَ عَلَيْهِ

✧ I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: Which sin is greatest? He said: “Associating partners with Allah—that you set up a rival to Him—and that you commit adultery with your neighbor's wife, and that you kill your child for fear of poverty, lest he eat with you.” Then 'Abdullah recited: {And those who do not call upon another god besides Allah, and do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden except by right, and do not commit adultery}. Abu 'Abd al-Rahman said: This is a mistake; we do not know that anyone corroborated Yazid on this.
