When he was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and a Jew was also with him, a funeral passed by him. He (the Jew) asked (Him): Muhammad, does this funeral speak? The Prophet ﷺ said: Allah has more knowledge. The Jew said: It speaks. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whatever the people of the Book tell you, do not verify them, nor falsify them, but say: We believe in Allah and His Apostle. If it is false, do not confirm it, and if it is right, do not falsify it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3644)   

أحمد:١٧٢٢٥حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُقَيْلٌ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَمْلَةَ أَنَّ أَبَا نَمْلَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ بَيْنَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَلْ تَتَكَلَّمُ هَذِهِ الْجَنَازَةُ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اللهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ الْيَهُودِيُّ أَنَا أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهَا تَتَكَلَّمُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا حَدَّثَكُمْ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ فَلَا تُصَدِّقُوهُمْ وَلَا تُكَذِّبُوهُمْ وَقُولُوا آمَنَّا بِاللهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ حَقًّا لَمْ تُكَذِّبُوهُمْ وَإِنْ كَانَ بَاطِلًا لَمْ تُصَدِّقُوهُمْ

[Machine] While I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , a man from the Jews came to him and mentioned something similar to what he [the Prophet] mentioned, except that he said it about his book and his messengers.  

أحمد:١٧٢٢٦حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي نَمْلَةَ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ حَدَّثَهُ

قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا جَالِسٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَكِتَابِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ
