English

Volume 9, Book 92, Number 387:
Narrated Abu Musa:
The Prophet said, "My example and the example of what I have been sent with is that of a man
who came to some people and said, 'O people! I have seen the enemy's army with my own eyes, and I
am the naked warner; so protect yourselves!' Then a group of his people obeyed him and fled at
night proceeding stealthily till they were safe, while another group of them disbelieved him and
stayed at their places till morning when the army came upon them, and killed and ruined them
completely So this is the example of that person who obeys me and follows what I have brought (the
Quran and the Sunna), and the example of the one who disobeys me and disbelieves the truth I have
brought."
