Hadith #38982
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:
"إذا قال الرجل: هلك الناس، فهو أهلكهم" ((رواه مسلم)).
الرواية المشهورة: أهلكَُهم برفع الكاف، وروي بنصبها، وهذا هو الحرام، وأما من قاله ذلك عجبًا بنفسه، وتصاغرا للناس، وارتفاعًا عليهم، فهذا هو الحرام، وأما من قاله لما يرى في الناس من نقص في أمر دينهم، وقاله تحزنًا عليهم، وعلى الدين فلا بأس به. هكذا فسره العلماء وفصلوه، ومن قاله من الأئمة الأعلام: مالك بن أنس، والخطابي، والحميدي وآخرون، وقد أوضحته في كتاب الأذكار .
On the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “If a man says: The people are destroyed, then he has destroyed them” ((Narrated by Muslim)). The well-known narration: He destroyed them by raising the kāf, and it was narrated by putting it in the accusative case, and this is forbidden. For the people, and it is higher than them, this is forbidden, and as for those who said it because of the deficiency he sees in the people in the matter of their religion, And he said it out of sadness for them, and for the religion, there is nothing wrong with it. This is how the scholars interpreted it and explained it, and the eminent imams who said it were: Malik bin Anas, Al-Khattabi, Al-Humaydi and others, and I explained it in the book Al-Adhkar.
