حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ ضَمْرَةَ بْنِ حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو السُّلَمِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ الْعِرْبَاضَ بْنَ سَارِيَةَ، قَالَ: وَعَظَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَوْعِظَةً ذَرَفَتْ مِنْهَا الْعُيُونُ، وَوَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ، قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَمَوْعِظَةُ مُوَدِّعٍ، فَمَاذَا تَعْهَدُ إِلَيْنَا؟ قَالَ: " قَدْ تَرَكْتُكُمْ عَلَى الْبَيْضَاءِ لَيْلُهَا كَنَهَارِهَا لَا يَزِيغُ عَنْهَا بَعْدِي إِلَّا هَالِكٌ، وَمَنْ يَعِشْ مِنْكُمْ، فَسَيَرَى اخْتِلَافًا كَثِيرًا، فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِمَا عَرَفْتُمْ مِنْ سُنَّتِي وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالطَّاعَةِ، وَإِنْ (١) عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا عَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ، فَإِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُ كَالْجَمَلِ الْأَنِفِ (٢) حَيْثُمَا انْقِيدَ انْقَادَ " (٣)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from ‘Irbad bin Sariyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave us such an admonition that people’s eyes began to weep and hearts began to tremble. We said: O Messenger of Allah! This admonition seems to us as if it is a farewell advice, so what do you enjoin upon us? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “I am leaving you upon a clear Shari‘ah, whose night and day are alike. Whoever deviates from it after me will be destroyed, and whoever among you lives will soon see many differences, so hold fast to my Sunnah that you know and the Sunnahs of the rightly guided Caliphs, and make obedience to the leader incumbent upon yourselves, even if he is an Abyssinian slave. Preserve these things well, for a Muslim is like an obedient camel, wherever he is led, he goes.”
