حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ يَزْدَوَيْهِ عَنْ يَعْفُرَ بْنِ رُوذِيٍّ سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ عُمَيْرٍ وَهُوَ يَقُصُّ يَقُولُ يَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَثَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ كَمَثَلِ الشَّاةِ الرَّابِضَةِ بَيْنَ الْغَنَمِ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَيْلَكُمْ لَا تَكْذِبُوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَثَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ كَمَثَلِ الشَّاةِ الْعَائِرَةِ بَيْنَ الْغَنَمَيْنِ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5610
It was narrated that Ya’fur ibn Roodhi said: I heard Ubayd ibn 'Umayr narrate: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "The likeness of the hypocrite is that of a sheep wandering between two flocks." Ibn Umar said: Woe to you! do not tell lies about the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) Rather the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "The likeness of the hypocrite is that of a sheep that is confused between two flocks."
