باب افْتِرَاقِ الأُمَمِ
Sunan Ibn Majah 3994
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
“You will most certainly follow the ways of those who came
before you, arm’s length by arm’s length, forearm’s length by
forearm’s length, hand span by hand span, until even if they
entered a
hole of a mastigure (lizard) you will enter it too.” They
said: “O
Messenger of Allah, (do you mean) the Jews and the
Christians?” He
said: “Who else?”
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " لَتَتَّبِعُنَّ سُنَّةَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بَاعًا بِبَاعٍ وَذِرَاعًا بِذِرَاعٍ وَشِبْرًا بِشِبْرٍ حَتَّى لَوْ دَخَلُوا فِي جُحْرِ ضَبٍّ لَدَخَلْتُمْ فِيهِ " . قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى قَالَ " فَمَنْ إِذًا " .
