1001 — Abū Ahmad Hārūn ibn Yūsuf also narrated to us: Ibn Abī Umar narrated to us: Sufyān narrated to us, from Abū al-Zinād, from al-Araj, from Abū Hurayra, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “My likeness and that of the people is like a man who kindled a fire. When it cast its light, flies—or perhaps he said, flies and mosquitoes—began plunging into it. I am holding you by your waistbands to keep you from the Fire, while you keep plunging into it.”
١٠٠١ - وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ هَارُونَ بْنُ يُوسُفَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ , عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ , عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ , عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِنَّمَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ النَّاسِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ اسْتَوْقَدَ نَارًا , فَلَمَّا أَضَاءَتْ جَعَلَ الذُّبَابُ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ الذُّبَابُ وَالْبَعُوضُ يَتَقَحَّمُونَ فِيهَا , فَأَنَا آخِذٌ بِحُجَزِكُمْ عَنِ النَّارِ وَأَنْتُمْ تَقْتَحِمُونَ فِيهَا»
