3329. It was narrated from Ibn 'Awn, from Ash-Sha'bi, who said: I heard An-Nu'mān bin Bashīr say, and I did not hear anyone say it after him: I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "That which is lawful is clear and that which is unlawful is clear, and between the two of them there are doubtful matters."— And sometimes he said: "A doubtful matter." — "I shall give you an example of that. Allāh has declared a sanctuary and the sanctuary of Allāh is that which He has forbidden. The one who grazes his flock around the sanctuary will soon transgress upon it, and the one who indulges in doubt will soon become more daring." (Sahih)

3329 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شِهَابٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ، وَلَا أَسْمَعُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَهُ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ الْحَلَالَ بَيِّنٌ، وَإِنَّ الْحَرَامَ بَيِّنٌ، وَبَيْنَهُمَا أُمُورٌ مُشْتَبِهَاتٌ»، وَأَحْيَانًا يَقُولُ: «مُشْتَبِهَةٌ» وَسَأَضْرِبُ لَكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ مَثَلًا، إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَمَى حِمًى، وَإِنَّ حِمَى اللَّهِ مَا حَرَّمَ، وَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يَرْعَى حَوْلَ الْحِمَى يُوشِكُ أَنْ يُخَالِطَهُ، وَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يُخَالِطُ الرِّيبَةَ يُوشِكُ أَنْ يَجْسُرَ "،
