حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ خَالِدِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ قَالَ: نَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْجُعْفِيُّ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ التَّغْلِبِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ سَيْفٍ الضَّبِّيُّ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ. عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ:
قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَتَى نَتْرُكُ الْأَمْرَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ، وَهُمَا سَيِّدَا أَعْمَالِ أَهْلِ الْبِرِّ ؟ قَالَ: إِذَا أَصَابَكُمْ مَا أَصَابَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَا أَصَابَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ؟ قَالَ: " إِذَا دَاهَنَ خِيَارُكُمْ فُجَّارَكُمْ، وَصَارَ الْفِقْهُ فِي شِرَارِكُمْ، وَصَارَ الْمُلْكُ فِي صِغَارِكُمْ، فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ تَلْبَسُكُمْ فِتْنَةٌ، تَكِرُّونَ وَيُكَرُّ عَلَيْكُمْ

✧ I said to the Prophet ﷺ: "O Messenger of Allah, when should we abandon enjoining good and forbidding evil, when they are the masters of the deeds of the righteous?" He said: "When what befell the Children of Israel befalls you." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, what befell the Children of Israel?" He said: "When the best among you flatter the wicked among you, when jurisprudence becomes among the worst of you, and when kingship becomes among the young of you, then at that time a trial will clothe you, you will charge and be charged against."
