[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said, 'A nation from among the nations has been lost, and Allah knows best. The mouse is its mother. Don't you see that when camel milk is placed for it, it does not eat it?'"  

أحمد:١٠٤٥٢حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي الْأَشْعَثُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الْأُمَمِ فُقِدَتْ فَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ الْفَأْرُ هِيَ أَمْ لَا أَلَا تَرَى أَنَّهَا إِذَا وُضِعَ لَهَا أَلْبَانُ الْإِبِلِ لَمْ تَطْعَمْهُ؟

"فُقدت أُمةٌ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائيلَ لَا يُدْرى مَا فعلتْ وإِنِّى لَا أرَاهَا إِلَّا الفأْر ألا تَرَوْنَهَا إِذَا وُضِعَ لَهَا أَلْبَانُ الإِبِل لَمْ تَشْرَب، وَإِذَا وُضِعَ لَهَا أَلْبَانُ الشاة شَرِبَت".
