Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مَثَلُ السُّنْبُلَةِ، تَسْتَقِيمُ مَرَّةً، وَتَخِرُّ مَرَّةً، وَمَثَلُ الْكَافِرِ مَثَلُ الْأَرْزَةِ، لَا تَزَالُ مُسْتَقِيمَةً حَتَّى تَخِرَّ، وَلَا تَشْعُرُ " (٣)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The example of a Muslim is like that of an ear of wheat, which sometimes bends and sometimes stands upright, and the example of a disbeliever is like that of a stalk of rice, which always remains standing until it falls, and no hair grows on it (or it does not realize it).
