Musnad Ahmad Hadith 10531

It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: The people before you were destroyed only because of excessive questioning and differing with their prophets (peace be upon them). Therefore, do not ask me too many questions unless I myself tell you something. During this, Abdullah bin Huzafah (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Who is my father?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Your father is Huzafah bin Qais." Hearing this, he went to his mother. She said, "What was the need for you to ask this question? We used to live in the age of ignorance and commit evil deeds." He said, "I wished to know who my father is and who is an ordinary man."
