حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا الْهُذَيْلُ بْنُ بِلَالٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ جَلَسَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ بِمَكَّةَ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ أَبِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ مَثَلَ الْمُنَافِقِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَالشَّاةِ بَيْنَ الرَّبِيضَيْنِ مِنْ الْغَنَمِ إِنْ أَتَتْ هَؤُلَاءِ نَطَحْنَهَا وَإِنْ أَتَتْ هَؤُلَاءِ نَطَحْنَهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ كَذَبْتَ فَأَثْنَى الْقَوْمُ عَلَى أَبِي خَيْرًا أَوْ مَعْرُوفًا فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَا أَظُنُّ صَاحِبَكُمْ إِلَّا كَمَا تَقُولُونَ وَلَكِنِّي شَاهِدٌ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ قَالَ كَالشَّاةِ بَيْنَ الْغَنَمَيْنِ فَقَالَ هُوَ سَوَاءٌ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُهُ

مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5359

It was narrated from Ibn 'Ubayd, from his father, that he sat in Makkah one day, and Abdullah ibn Umar was with him. My father said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: Ihe likeness of the hypocrite on the Day of Resurrection is that of a sheep that is between two sheep-pens. If it goes to one group, they will push it away, and if it goes to the other group, they will push it away.” Ibn Umar said to him: You are lying, but the peoples spoke well of my father. Ibn Umar said: I do not think your companion is other than you say (i.e., I agree that he is good), but I was present when the Prophet of Allah (PBUH) said. "Like a sheep between two flocks." He said: It is the same thing. He said : But this is h ow I heard it.
