حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ مَرْثَدٍ، ثَنَا آدَمُ، ثَنَا وَرْقَاءُ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
مَثَلُ الْقَائِمِ عَلَى حُدُودِ اللهِ وَالْمُدَاهِنِ فِي حُدُودِ اللهِ وَالرَّاكِبِ حُدُودَ اللهِ كَمَثَلِ نَفَرٍ ثَلَاثَةٍ كَانُوا فِي سَفِينَةٍ، فَتَوَزَّعُوا مَنَازِلَهَا، فَصَارَ مَكَانُ النِّزِّ وَمِهَرَاقُ الْمَاءِ لِأَحَدِهِمْ، فَتَأَذَّوْا بِهِ، فَأَخَذَ الْقَدُومَ فَقَرَعَ مَكَانَهُ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُ الْبَاقِينَ لِلْآخَرِ: أَلَا تَرَى هَذَا الَّذِي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَخْرِقَ سَفِينَتَنَا فَيُغْرِقَنَا ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْآخَرُ: دَعْهُ؛ فَإِنَّمَا يَخْرِقُ مَكَانَهُ "، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " فَإِنْ مَنَعُوهُ سَلِمَ وَسَلِمُوا، وَإِنْ تَرَكُوهُ غَرِقَ وَغَرِقُوا

✧ The example of the one who upholds the limits set by Allah, the one who flatters concerning the limits set by Allah, and the one who violates the limits set by Allah is like three people who were on a ship. They divided its quarters, and one of them got the place where water seeped in and where water was bailed out, so they were bothered by him. He took an axe and began to chop at his place. One of the remaining two said to the other: 'Do you not see this one who wants to breach our ship and drown us?' The other replied: 'Leave him, for he is only breaching his own place.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'If they stop him, he and they will be safe; but if they leave him, he will drown and they will drown.'
