Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ هُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنِ النَّزَّالِ بْنِ سَبْرَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا يَقْرَأُ آيَةً، وَسَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَيْرَهَا، فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَتَغَيَّرَ وَجْهُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَوْ عَرَفْتُ فِي وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْكَرَاهِيَةَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " كِلَاكُمَا مُحْسِنٌ، إِنَّ مَنْ قَبْلَكُمِ اخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ فَأَهْلَكَهُمْ " (٢)، ، قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: وَحَدَّثَنِي مِسْعَرٌ، عَنْهُ، وَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " فَلَا تَخْتَلِفُوا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It was narrated that Ibn Mas’ood (رضي الله عنه) said:

We asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about monkeys and pigs - were they the offspring of the Jews? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Allah never cursed any people and transformed them, then gave them offspring when He caused their doom. These (animals) are a creation that existed before. When Allah got angry with the Jews, He transformed them and made them like them.”
