حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ مَطَرٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ حِمَارٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ أَنَّهُ خَطَبَهُمْ فَقَالَ " إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَوْحَى إِلَىَّ أَنْ تَوَاضَعُوا حَتَّى لاَ يَفْخَرَ أَحَدٌ عَلَى أَحَدٍ " .
Translation
Ahmad ibn Sa‘id narrated to us; ‘Ali ibn al-Husayn ibn Waqid narrated to us; my father narrated to us, from Matar, from Qatadah, from Mutarrif, from ‘Iyad ibn Himar, from the Prophet (ﷺ), who addressed them and said: “Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has revealed to me that you should humble yourselves to one another, so that no one boasts over another.”
