اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم ذروني ما وذرتكم فإنما هلك من كان قبلكم بسؤالهم واختلافهم على أنبيائهم وَلكن ما نهيتكم عنه فانتهوا وما أمرتكم به فأتوا منه ما استطعتم

Collected by Bukhārī, Muslim, Ibn Mājah, Aḥmad, Ibn Ḥibbān, Bayhaqī, Bazzār, SuyūṭīRefrain from asking excessive and unnecessary questions
from the Prophet ﷺ who said, "Leave me as I leave you, for the people who were before you were ruined because of their ˹excessive˺ questions and their differences over their prophets. So, if I forbid you to do something, then keep away from it. And if I order you to do something, then do of it as much as you can."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «دَعُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ، إِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلاَفِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ، فَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَىْءٍ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِأَمْرٍ فَأْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ».
that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “Whatever I have forbidden you, avoid it; and whatever I have commanded you to do, do of it as much as you are able. For indeed, what destroyed those before you was their asking too many questions and their disagreement with their prophets.”
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «مَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ، وَمَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ فَافْعَلُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ: فَإِنَّمَا أَهْلَكَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ كَثْرَةُ مَسَائِلِهِمْ وَاخْتِلاَفُهُمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ».
The Prophet said: "Leave me as I have left you (Don't ask me the minor things that I have avoided to tell you). For those who came before you were doomed because of their questions and differences with their Prophets. If I commanded you to do something, then do as much of it as you can, and if I forbid you from doing something, then refrain from it."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلاَفِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ فَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِشَىْءٍ فَخُذُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ وَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَىْءٍ فَانْتَهُوا

[Machine] I heard Abu al-Qasim ﷺ saying, "Leave me what I have left for you. Indeed, those who were before you perished due to their excessive questioning and differing regarding their prophets. So when I command you with a matter, do what you can to fulfill it, and when I forbid you from doing something, avoid it."
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ يَقُولُ ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ فَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِأَمْرٍ فَأْتُوهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ وَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ أَمْرٍ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ
[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Leave me as long as I have left you. The people of the Scripture before you were destroyed because of their continuous disputes among their prophets, and their excessive questioning. So, follow what I have commanded you to do as much as you are able, and leave what I have forbidden you.'"
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ قَبْلَكُمْ أَوْ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِكَثْرَةِ اخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ وَكَثْرَةِ سُؤَالِهِمْ فَانْظُرُوا مَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ فَاتَّبِعُوهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ وَمَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ فَدَعُوهُ أَوْ ذَرُوهُ
that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Leave me with what I left you. When I narrated a Hadith to you, then take it from me. The people before you were only destroyed by their excessive questioning and disagreeing with their Prophets." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2679)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Leave me as I leave you, for the people who were before you were ruined because of their questions and their differences over their prophets. So, if I forbid you to do something, then keep away from it. And if I order you to do something, then do of it as much as you can." (Using translation from Bukhārī 7288)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ قَبْلَكُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ فَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِالْأَمْرِ فَأَتَوْا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ»

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Leave me with what I have left you with, for indeed those who came before you were destroyed due to their excessive questioning and disputes regarding their prophets. I have prohibited you from certain things, so refrain from them, and I have commanded you with certain things, so fulfill them to the best of your ability."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِكَثْرَةِ سُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ مَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانْتَهُوا وَمَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ فَأْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ»
Avoid that which I forbid you to do and do that which I command you to do to the best of your capacity. Verily the people before you went to their doom because they had put too many questions to their Prophets and then disagreed with their teachings. (Using translation from Muslim 1337b)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّمَا أَهْلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ سُؤَالُهُمْ وَاخْتِلَافُهُمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ فَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِأَمْرٍ فَأْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ»
