2849. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The best statement spoken by the Arab is the saying of Labīd: 'Everything aside from Allāh perishes.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ. Ath-Thawrī and others reported it from 'Abdul-Mālik bin 'Umair.

Arabic text

٢٨٤٩ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «أَشْعَرُ كَلِمَةٍ تَكَلَّمَتْ بِهَا الْعَرَبُ قَوْلُ لَبِيدٍ:» أَلَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مَا خَلَا اللهَ بَاطِلُ . هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ الثَّوْرِيُّ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ.
