Sahih Al-Bukhari 7281

جَاءَتْ مَلَائِكَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ نَائِمٌ ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : إِنَّهُ نَائِمٌ ، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ نَائِمَةٌ وَالْقَلْبَ يَقْظَانُ ، فَقَالُوا : إِنَّ لِصَاحِبِكُمْ هَذَا مَثَلًا ، فَاضْرِبُوا لَهُ مَثَلًا ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : إِنَّهُ نَائِمٌ ، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ نَائِمَةٌ وَالْقَلْبَ يَقْظَانُ ، فَقَالُوا : مَثَلُهُ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ بَنَى دَارًا وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا مَأْدُبَةً وَبَعَثَ دَاعِيًا ، فَمَنْ أَجَابَ الدَّاعِيَ دَخَلَ الدَّارَ وَأَكَلَ مِنَ الْمَأْدُبَةِ ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يُجِبْ الدَّاعِيَ لَمْ يَدْخُلِ الدَّارَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنَ الْمَأْدُبَةِ ، فَقَالُوا : أَوِّلُوهَا لَهُ يَفْقَهْهَا ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : إِنَّهُ نَائِمٌ ، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ نَائِمَةٌ وَالْقَلْبَ يَقْظَانُ ، فَقَالُوا : فَالدَّارُ الْجَنَّةُ ، وَالدَّاعِي مُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَمَنْ أَطَاعَ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَدْ أَطَاعَ اللَّهَ ، وَمَنْ عَصَى مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَدْ عَصَى اللَّهَ ، وَمُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرْقٌ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ ، تَابَعَهُ قُتَيْبَةُ ، عَنْ لَيْثٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلَالٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

Translation: Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: Some angels came to the Prophet while he was sleeping. Some of them said,   He is sleeping.   Others said,   His eyes are sleeping but his heart is awake.   Then they said,   There is an example for this companion of yours.   One of them said,   Then set forth an example for him.   Some of them said,   He is sleeping.   The others said,   His eyes are sleeping but his heart is awake.   Then they said,   His example is that of a man who has built a house and then offered therein a banquet and sent an inviter (messenger) to invite the people. So whoever accepted the invitation of the inviter, entered the house and ate of the banquet, and whoever did not accept the invitation of the inviter, did not enter the house, nor did he eat of the banquet.   Then the angels said,   Interpret this example to him so that he may understand it.   Some of them said,   He is sleeping.'' The others said,   His eyes are sleeping but his heart is awake.   And then they said,   The houses stands for Paradise and the call maker is Muhammad; and whoever obeys Muhammad, obeys Allah; and whoever disobeys Muhammad, disobeys Allah. Muhammad separated the people (i.e., through his message, the good is distinguished from the bad, and the believers from the disbelievers). 

[Sahih al-Bukhari : 7281]

Sahih Al-Bukhari 7282

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ ، قَالَ : يَا مَعْشَرَ الْقُرَّاءِ ، اسْتَقِيمُوا فَقَدْ سَبَقْتُمْ سَبْقًا بَعِيدًا ، فَإِنْ أَخَذْتُمْ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا لَقَدْ ضَلَلْتُمْ ضَلَالًا بَعِيدًا

Translation: Narrated Hammam: Hudhaifa said,   O the Group of Al-Qurra! Follow the straight path, for then you have taken a great lead (and will be the leaders), but if you divert right or left, then you will go astray far away. [Sahih al-Bukhari : 7282]

Sahih Al-Bukhari 7283

إِنَّمَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ مَا بَعَثَنِي اللَّهُ بِهِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ أَتَى قَوْمًا ، فَقَالَ : يَا قَوْمِ ، إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الْجَيْشَ بِعَيْنَيَّ ، وَإِنِّي أَنَا النَّذِيرُ الْعُرْيَانُ ، فَالنَّجَاءَ فَأَطَاعَهُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ ، فَأَدْلَجُوا ، فَانْطَلَقُوا عَلَى مَهَلِهِمْ ، فَنَجَوْا وَكَذَّبَتْ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ ، فَأَصْبَحُوا مَكَانَهُمْ ، فَصَبَّحَهُمُ الْجَيْشُ ، فَأَهْلَكَهُمْ وَاجْتَاحَهُمْ فَذَلِكَ مَثَلُ مَنْ أَطَاعَنِي ، فَاتَّبَعَ مَا جِئْتُ بِهِ وَمَثَلُ مَنْ عَصَانِي وَكَذَّبَ بِمَا جِئْتُ بِهِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ

Translation: The Prophet said, My example and the example of what I have been sent with is that of a man who came to some people and said, 'O people! I have seen the enemy's army with my own eyes, and I am the naked warner; so protect yourselves!' Then a group of his people obeyed him and fled at night proceeding stealthily till they were safe, while another group of them disbelieved him and stayed at their places till morning when the army came upon them, and killed and ruined them completely So this is the example of that person who obeys me and follows what I have brought.
