عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ صَخْرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْت رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه و سلم يَقُولُ: مَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ، وَمَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ فَأْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ، فَإِنَّمَا أَهْلَكَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ كَثْرَةُ مَسَائِلِهِمْ وَاخْتِلَافُهُمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ .<br>[رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ] ،[وَمُسْلِمٌ]
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (ra): I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say, “What I have forbidden for you, avoid. What I have ordered you [to do], do as much of it as you can. For verily, it was only the excessive questioning and their disagreeing with their Prophets that destroyed [the nations] who were before you.” [Bukhari & Muslim]Selon Abou Hourayra (qu’Allah l’agrée) : J’ai entendu le Messager d’Allah (ﷺ) dire : « Ce que je vous ai interdit, évitez-le. Ce que je vous ai ordonné, faites-en autant que vous le pouvez. En vérité, c’est l’excès de questions et les désaccords avec leurs prophètes qui ont causé la perte des communautés précédentes. » [Boukhari & Mouslim]Grades given by scholars
