Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَرَأَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِيمَا أُمِرَ، وَسَكَتَ فِيمَا أُمِرَ ‏‏{‏وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ نَسِيًّا‏}‏ ‏‏{‏لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ‏}‏‏.‏

Translation

Ibn Abbas reported: The Prophet recited what he was commanded to recite and remained silent where he was commanded to remain silent. Your Lord is never forgetful. Indeed, you have a good example in the Messenger of Allah.
