حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ الْفَخْرُ وَالْخُيَلَائُ فِي الْفَدَّادِينَ أَهْلِ الْوَبَرِ وَالسَّکِينَةُ فِي أَهْلِ الْغَنَمِ وَالْإِيمَانُ يَمَانٍ وَالْحِکْمَةُ يَمَانِيَةٌ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد اللَّهِ سُمِّيَتْ الْيَمَنَ لِأَنَّهَا عَنْ يَمِينِ الْکَعْبَةِ وَالشَّأْمَ لِأَنَّهَا عَنْ يَسَارِ الْکَعْبَةِ وَالْمَشْأَمَةُ الْمَيْسَرَةُ وَالْيَدُ الْيُسْرَی الشُّؤْمَی وَالْجَانِبُ الْأَيْسَرُ الْأَشْأَمُ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 3500
Narrated Muhammad bin Jubair bin Mut`im: That while he was with a delegation from Quraish to Muawiya, the latter heard the news that `Abdullah bin `Amr bin Al-`As said that there would be a king from the tribe of Qahtan. On that Muawiya became angry, got up and then praised Allah as He deserved, and said, "Now then, I have heard that some men amongst you narrate things which are neither in the Holy Book, nor have been told by Allah's Apostle. Those men are the ignorant amongst you. Beware of such hopes as make the people go astray, for I heard Allah's Apostle saying, 'Authority of ruling will remain with Quraish, and whoever bears hostility to them, Allah will destroy him as long as they abide by the laws of the religion.' "
