حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، أَمْلَاهُ عَلَيْنَا (١) حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو، مِنْ فِيهِ إِلَى فِيَّ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَقْبِضُ الْعِلْمَ انْتِزَاعًا يَنْتَزِعُهُ مِنَ النَّاسِ، وَلَكِنْ يَقْبِضُ الْعِلْمَ بِقَبْضِ الْعُلَمَاءِ، حَتَّى إِذَا لَمْ يَتْرُكْ عَالِمًا، اتَّخَذَ النَّاسُ رُؤَسَاءَ جُهَّالًا، فَسُئِلُوا، فَأَفْتَوْا بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ، فَضَلُّوا، وَأَضَلُّوا " (٢)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) say: Allah Almighty will not take away knowledge by snatching it from among the people, but He will take away knowledge by taking away the scholars. Until, when no scholar remains, people will take the ignorant as their leaders, and they will be asked for religious rulings, and they will issue fatwas without knowledge. As a result, they will go astray themselves and will lead others astray as well.
