حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِکٌ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ دَعُونِي مَا تَرَکْتُکُمْ إِنَّمَا هَلَکَ مَنْ کَانَ قَبْلَکُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَی أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ فَإِذَا نَهَيْتُکُمْ عَنْ شَيْئٍ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرْتُکُمْ بِأَمْرٍ فَأْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 7288
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet 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."
