عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِىِّ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ
دَعُونِىْ مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ، إِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلاَفِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ، فَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَىْءٍ فَاجْتَنِبُوْهُ، وَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِأَمْرٍ فَأْتُوْا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
Hazrat Abu Hurairahra narrates that the Holy Prophetsa said:
“Leave me as I leave you, for the people who were before you were ruined because of their questions and their differences over their prophets. So, if I forbid you to do something, then keep away from it. And if I order you to do something, then do of it as much as you can.”
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Kitab al-I‘tisam bil-Kitab wa al-Sunnah, Hadith 7288)
