حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " فُقِدَتْ أُمَّةٌ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لاَ يُدْرَى مَا فَعَلَتْ، وَإِنِّي لاَ أُرَاهَا إِلاَّ الْفَارَ إِذَا وُضِعَ لَهَا أَلْبَانُ الإِبِلِ لَمْ تَشْرَبْ، وَإِذَا وُضِعَ لَهَا أَلْبَانُ الشَّاءِ شَرِبَتْ ". فَحَدَّثْتُ كَعْبًا فَقَالَ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُهُ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ. قَالَ لِي مِرَارًا. فَقُلْتُ أَفَأَقْرَأُ التَّوْرَاةَ
Musa ibn Ismaʿil narrated to us: Wuhaib narrated to us, from Khalid, from Muhammad, from Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: ‘A community of the Children of Israel disappeared, and it is not known what became of it. I can only think that they were mice: when camel milk was placed before them, they would not drink it, but when sheep’s milk was placed before them, they would drink it.’ I related this to Kaʿb, and he said, ‘Did you hear the Prophet ﷺ say this?’ I replied, ‘Yes.’ He asked me this repeatedly. I said, ‘Am I reading the Torah?’
Translation notes
The Arabic segment ends mid-context after ‘Am I reading the Torah’; preserved the excerpt boundary and did not add a completion.
