2663. 'Ubaidullāh bin Abū Rāfi' narrated from Abū Rāfi' and others, from the Prophet ﷺ who said: "Let me not find one of you reclining on his couch when a command I ordered, or a prohibition from me comes to him, and he says: 'I do not know. What we find in the Book of Allāh, we follow it.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan [Ṣaḥīḥ]. Some of them reported it from Sufyān from Ibn Al-Munkadir, from the Prophet ﷺ in Mursal form. And, (also from) Sālim Abū An-Naḍr, from 'Ubaidullāh bin Abū Rāfi', from his father from the Prophet ﷺ. When Ibn 'Uyainah reported this Hadīth from them separately, he would distinguish between the narrations of Muḥammad bin Al-Munkadir and Sālim Abū An-Naḍr, and when he combined them, he would narrate it like this.
Abū Rāfi' is the freed slave of the Prophet ﷺ, and his name is Aslam.

Commentary
This Hadīth tells us that turning away from an authentic Hadīth with a claim that its order is not found in the Qur'ān is unlawful; how can it then be right to ignore the authentic Aḥādīth just for the sake of opinions and views of the A'immah.
