English translation

2133. Abū Hurairah narrated: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ came out to us while we were discussing about Al-Qadar. He became angry such that his face became red, as if a pomegranate was bursting through his cheeks. He said: 'Is this what I ordered you to do?' - or: 'Is this what I have been sent to you with? The people before you were only ruined when they differed about this matter. I order you [I order you] to not debate about it.'" (Da'if)[1] [Abū 'Eisā said:] There are narrations on this topic from 'Umar, 'Aishah, and Anas. And this Hadīth is Gharīb. We do not know of it from this route except through the narration of Ṣāliḥ Al-Murri. Ṣāliḥ Al-Murri has narrated strange narrations (Gharā'ib) in which he is alone [no one reported them except him]. يتابع عليها [].

٢١٣٣ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْجُمَحِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌صَالِحٌ الْمُرِّيُّ ، عَنْ ‌هِشَامِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ ، عَنْ ‌مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ نَتَنَازَعُ فِي الْقَدَرِ فَغَضِبَ حَتَّى احْمَرَّ وَجْهُهُ، حَتَّى كَأَنَّمَا فُقِئَ» فِي وَجْنَتَيْهِ الرُّمَّانُ، فَقَالَ: أَبِهَذَا أُمِرْتُمْ أَمْ بِهَذَا أُرْسِلْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ؟ إِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ حِينَ تَنَازَعُوا فِي هَذَا الْأَمْرِ، عَزَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَلَّا تَتَنَازَعُوا فِيهِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عُمَرَ، وَعَائِشَةَ، وَأَنَسٍ. وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ صَالِحٍ الْمُرِّيِّ، وَصَالِحٌ الْمُرِّيُّ لَهُ غَرَائِبُ يَنْفَرِدُ بِهَا لَا يُتَابَعُ عَلَيْهَا.

    [1] The story in this Hadīth has been reported by 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr bin Al-'Ās. It was recorded by Aḥmad (2:178 & 196) with the mention of Al-Qadar, and Ibn Mājah (85). Al-Buṣīrī said: "Its chain is Ṣaḥīḥ". And Shaikh Al-Albānī graded the narration of At-Tirmidhī Hasan. The prohibition of debating about Al-Qadar is the established creed of Ahl As-Sunnah wal-Jamā'ah, as clearly indicated in Usūl As-Sunnah by Imām Aḥmad as well as others.
